I tihkn it would be a good idea to split up Template:Bows into four different templates. This is because there are four distinct types of bow, and follows the example of Melee weapons being split by named class (e.g. Mace, Warhammer, Maul), rather than Crush/Stab/Slash.

The four groups I suggest are as follows@

Shortbow - Weapons with the Shortbow suffix, Ogre comp bow.

Longbow - Weapons with the Longbow suffix.

Shieldbow - Weapons with the Shieldbow suffix, Strykebow, Dark bow, Willow/Yew/Magic composite bows, God bows.

Chargebow - Chargebow, Kayle's Chargebow, Training bow, (Attuned) Crystal bow, Zaryte bow

These are all based off statistics. Chargebows are similar to Shortbows, but notably cannot adjust their fire rate, as they don't react to sharp/blunt arrows. Composite bows aren't a group, as they are all either Shieldbows or Shortbows.

I'd also suggest adding navboxes for wooden equipment, similar to Template:Mithril equipment.

If everyone is cool with this, I've learnt enough to go about implementing it myself.
