One of our goals is to increase the level of consistency and coherence across the many pages of the TS Wiki. To that end, there are a few items relating to Contractor pages (specifically the list of Contracts) that I would like the community to discuss. The Contract pages are some of the most widely-visited pages on the Wiki, so it is important that we do a good job with formatting them. As it stands currently, no two Contractor pages are identical in terms of formatting. The issues for discussion (for the moment):

1. How we display "build costs". By build costs, I mean as the following:

Build 10 Oil Well
 * Cost:, , 

How should this second line look? Some pages look like the above (E.g., Bobby), whereas others (e.g., Ethan) look like:



And many are some combination in between. So, the questions are:

1a. Bullet or no bullet?

1b. Italics or no italics?

1c. Parentheses or no parentheses?

1d. The word "cost" or not?

2. Next issue: do we display the gold icon when we display the gem icon  in OR contracts. We use the gem icon, of course, do denote that this particular option requires gems (and therefore real money) to use. However, is it necessary to actually include the Gold icon for the other option? Or, is it enough to just display the Gems icon for the Gems option, with the assumption that the option without the Gems icon does not require gems?

That's all for now! Thanks for your help.
