3. \\\'\\\'Players Handbook\\\'\\\' Races Only - about 17 entries
* Pros: Laser-focused, no danger of reaching page limit, no awkwardly small grung or locathah entries
* Cons: Splits the gith, 4th Edition is the only one that introduced new races in \\\'\\\'PH\\\'\\\' sequels, so small as to beg question of \\\"why bother?\\\"

4. Playable Race page for every edition - 100+ entries
* Pros: Comprehensive, multiple pages reduce risk of hitting page limit
* Cons: Big bite out of the main creature index, questions of \\\"debut or first playable\\\" and how to handle the likes of shadar-kai that get redesigned every edition, most entries will be in 1st-3rd Editions, do you know which edition firbolgs were first playable in?

I think going with \\\"currently playable races only\\\" works best, despite some caveats, as it has a good balance of pros and cons, but that is of course a matter of opinion. If I was going to be unilateral about this page\\\'s clean-up I wouldn\\\'t be bothering with the discussion page.
