Wiki - Weapons Damage Calculation

Happy Easter all,

 

I've found the wiki a really useful resource that I usually have open as I'm playing.  Would it be possible to add another field/column for the weapons and have the dice calculation run and show the average damage for the weapons?  More of a convenience item as the info appears all on one page (instead of having to fire up a dice calculator like I currently do).

 

Cheers,

[ (Dice 1 x dice 2 ) + Dice 1 ]  /2

or

{[ (Dice 1 x dice 2 ) - Dice 1 ]  /2 } + Dice 1

 

Damage is 9d5 (average 27)

((9*5) +9 )/2 = 27

or

{((9*5) - 9 )/2} + 9 = 27

That wasn't the point, Mya, but yes.

I think he wants this one: Damage is 9d5 (average 27), it would be a nice additions but require input from more then a few.

I was more thinking of an additional column called 'Avg. Dam' - take the numbers from the d1 and d2 columns and put into the necessary formula such as Mya has provided above.  So you'd see as the column headings:

 

weapon type   d1    d2    avg dam

 

I just thought that it made the wiki a bit more of a 'all in one' resource.  http://anydice.com/is just as easy for getting the info if I don't want to do a manual calc when comparing weapons.

Am I missing something regarding the number that shows up when you identify an item?
