Extensions category?

What if make a category filled with small articles about specific GTA file extensions, like SCM, SCO, TXD that will contain a generic information about what this extenstion means, which modding genre it belongs (mapping, coding, etc), which tools are present to edit it? The idea had come to me from this article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/.bik Seemann 08:28, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm all for this, especially the part about what tools are available for them. We'd just need to keep up on major updates for the tools. But yah, good idea. :)--Ceedj 18:24, 31 December 2008 (UTC)

Since we (will) have entries for most file formats (like IMG, DFF, TXD), redirecting to the appropriate file format description articles, I don't see a need to mirror those just to emphasize on the file extension. To me, it would seem more helpful to have articles for each game (e.g. List of GTA 4 file extensions) listing all important file extensions, linking to their proper articles, giving a (very) short description, and possibly a short list of links to articles about relevant tools. Although tools will be linked to from the full articles anyway, so no real need for that. --Steve-m 22:11, 31 December 2008 (UTC)
