Template:Infobox item/doc/type

Possible types of items, as used for the category items by type by their infobox.

Background
This list is based on the seventy-eight possible entries for the field "General" in Near Infinity, the item's category that defines, among others, if a store will buy the item or not, the sound that can be heard when lifting it and which inventory slot it may go into.

For magical items, this is often the unidentified name – which actually is a purpose of that field: to show the unidentified name in the infobox and have it documented on the page. If it's a really unique name, however, it may be better to choose something more generic, an item's base type, so to speak.

The actual list is expanded to show more possible unidentified names and to furthermore categorize items. For this purpose, some unused categories are also enabled.

WIP! The list of categories isn't complete, yet. Also, more subentries may be created.
