mob/admin/verb
    Create()
        switch(input(usr,"Choose a category") in list ("Equipment"))
        if("Equipment")
            usr.Create_equipment

mob/verb
    Create_equipment(O in typesof(/obj/equipment)){set category = "GM";
        set desc="Create an Object, Mob, or Turf.";
        if(!O)return;var/obj/T = new O(usr.loc);
        if(ispath(T,/obj/))
            T.owner=usr
        if(T.wall||T.floor)
            T.saveable=1
        world.log<<"<font color=#607B8B>[usr] created a [T:name].";
        view() << "Using their Godly powers, [usr] summons a [T:name] appeared."}

See this I want to turn the verb into a proc... But when I do I get an error how can I do this?

Foomer	And what error might "an error" be?

That's because you didn't indent the if() enough after the switch statement:

mob/admin/verb
    Create()
        switch(input(usr,"Choose a category") in list ("Equipment"))
        if("Equipment")
            usr.Create_equipment

Should be:

mob/admin/verb
   Create()
      switch(input(usr,"Choose a category") in list ("Equipment"))
         if("Equipment")
            usr.Create_equipment

    Create_equipment(O in typesof(/obj/equipment)){set category = "GM";

        if(!O)return;var/obj/T = new O(usr.loc);

Is giving me the error
