Why do we have this image, if it is identical to File:Ascendri bolts 4.png? Just in case at some point in the future they differ? Same thing with :File:Ascendri bolts (e) 5.png. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 04:38, February 20, 2015 (UTC)

Yes, since based on other stack images, it's likely unintentional. Although I can't exactly expect them to fix it anytime soon. :/ --Jlun2 (talk) 06:38, February 20, 2015 (UTC)
In that case Fragment bolts and Ascension bolts should be handled the same way. There are, however, objects which do not have a full set of 5 as well: Proboscis, Ecto-token, Pieces of eight and a few quest specific ones (thanks to User:Riblet15/Stack#Other)...

I don't think it's unintentional. It just seems all bolts added with the Ascension Dungeon have their final icons at the stack of 4, that's it. Inconsistent, but oh well. I'd suggest deleting this image. 5-x Talk 16:18, February 22, 2015 (UTC)
I'd vote for that as well. It's not hard to re-add it if a 5-stack icon is ever added. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 17:38, February 22, 2015 (UTC)
FYI, it is used/referred to in Module:Exchange/Ascendri bolts. So if we delete this, make sure to change it accordingly. User:Azliq7 02:05, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
In fact, I must have added this to be consistent with other Exchange items with the 5-stack icons. We have quite a bit of duplicate icons for the Exchange items. Like File:Amulet of glory.png and File:Dragonstone amulet.png for example. Just saying... User:Azliq7 02:13, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
I thought the preferred solution was file redirect, such as File:Elder seed.png? IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 04:56, February 23, 2015 (UTC)
Yeah, the redirect is currently File:Ascendri bolts.png being redirected to :File:Ascendri bolts 5.png. That is the normal way for all bolts. Since this bolt doesn't have a 5-stack, we upload the 4-stack as a duplicate of the 5-stack, and redirect "bolts" to "bolts 5". This makes it consistent with other bolts...
If we redirect "bolts" to "bolts 4" (and "bolts 5" to "bolts 4"), that would be inconsistent... but probably less complicated.
We can't delete this "bolts 5"... we can keep it as a duplicate, or redirect it to "bolts 4". I don't mind either way. User:Azliq7 05:25, February 24, 2015 (UTC)
Wait, given your explanation, the only argument I see for not deleting "bolts 5" is consistency of some sort (even if inaccurate). If we redirect "bolts" to "bolts 4", "bolts 5" should be obsolete. IP83.101.44.209 (talk) 06:01, February 24, 2015 (UTC)
Yeah, but if there is a list of "bolts 5", then we would be missing this "ascendri bolts 5", so we would still need a redirect. Btw, redirects are cheap. User:Azliq7 06:40, February 24, 2015 (UTC)
