| − | == Split <nowiki>{{Availability}}</nowiki> into separate availability templates ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | I know this won't be popular considering a lot of pages use [[Template:Availability]], but at this point, I feel like there's too much to add that it's becoming a growing nightmare to deal with, especially with how limited MediaWiki can handle a template like this anymore.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | I think long-term goal we should split this template into multiple sections. There are two options to consider.
| |
| − | # We split the template by their category. This means that Plants go to a specific category, and NPCs go in another. The [[Fortune Cookies]] from {{PC}} therefore have their own separate template.
| |
| − | # We split the template into their own game. This is a big deal because this could mean linking specific items such as flower items by using [[Template:I]]. Long-term, when we do include items from other games like {{NL}}, {{PC}}, and {{WW}}, we don't have items that have to linked to one page in order to maintain consistency. We can have <code><nowiki>{{Availability|NH|Orange Tree}}</nowiki></code> for {{NH}} redirect to <code><nowiki>{{I|Orange Tree|New Horizons}}</nowiki></code> and in {{NL}}, <code><nowiki>{{Availability|NL|Orange Tree}}</nowiki></code> goes to <code><nowiki>{{I|Orange Tree|New Leaf}}</nowiki></code>. This can also factor in specific icons for specific games, depending on if those icons exists. Now things that are common across multiple games, such as <code><nowiki>{{Availability|Starting item}}</nowiki></code> and <code><nowiki>{{Availability|Unobtainable}}</nowiki></code>, we can opt to keep those in the main template as they are not really game-specific in that regard.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This needs to be addressed, because the more we add to this template, the harder it gets to add new availability factors and the more likely that the template will cease to operate due to how many items need to be added (e.g. Pocket Camp fortune cookies). -- [[User:PanchamBro|PanchamBro]] ([[User talk:PanchamBro|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/PanchamBro|contributions]]) 13:21, June 6, 2021 (EDT)

| − | :I'm quite onto this, having separate templates could simplify things quite a bit, but it will probably be a long process getting everything back together since we have so many pages with the [[Template:Availability|availability template]]. ~ [[User:Vivian|<span style="font-family:Coustard;color:brown">Vivian</span>]] [[User talk:Vivian|<span style="font-family:Coustard;color:grey">(talk)</span>]] [[File:Vivian DnMe+ Minigame.png|20px|link=Special:Contributions/Vivian]] 13:28, June 6, 2021 (EDT)

| − | ::I would like to point out that [https://nookipedia.com/w/index.php?title=Special:ListUsers&group=bot we have bots that we can rely on] to replace those texts. And that most templates can easily swap stuff around and add those specific names (see [[Template:CargoDisplayNHFurniture]]). -- [[User:PanchamBro|PanchamBro]] ([[User talk:PanchamBro|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/PanchamBro|contributions]]) 13:36, June 6, 2021 (EDT)

| − | :The switch parser function [[wikipedia:Help:Switch_parser_function|help page]] over on wikipedia says that while a function can technically contain between 1k-2k branches, it "should be split to have less than 100 branches, in multiple or nested parts". If we expect that we will ever reach the upper limit/run into performance concerns, then splitting it would be easier to do sooner rather than later. Also, I didn't see this post before I made edits to the template to simplify it. Even though it's more readable/editable now, I agree that splitting it is still something we should consider. If we didn't want to adjust the template call on all of the pages in which {{t|Availability}} appears, we could create a template that determines which 'category' the call fits into (e.g. is it a plant, fortune cookie etc.). We could then use this determination to split the huge switch into several nested switches:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | <pre><nowiki>{{AvailabilityCategory|{{{1|}}}}}
| |
| − | {{#switch: {{#var:category}}
| |
| − | | fortune = {{#switch: {{{1|}}}
| |
| − | | Clothing Fortune Cookie
| |
| − | | Timmy's Fortune Cookie
| |
| − | .
| |
| − | .
| |
| − | .</nowiki></pre>
| |
| − |
| |
| − | :The <code><nowiki>{{AvailabilityCategory}}</nowiki></code> template would determine what category the input belongs to, and this information could be accessed by calling the variable <code><nowiki>{{#var:category}}</nowiki></code>. This would still result in the template being very long though, as all of the different options would exist in the same template, just nested in multiple switch functions to improve performance.

| |
| − | :Minor suggestion if this would be implemented in the future, subpages could be used to separate between games e.g., {{t|Availability/NH}} and {{t|Availability/PC}}, to prevent <code><nowiki>{{{#switch}}}</nowiki></code>ing hell. Regardless, the template definitely has to be split in the future.

| − | == SVGs, indexing, and gadgets ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Hello editors! Thanks to the hard work of [[User:Jake|Jake]], we've recently upgraded our MediaWiki version and made some small changes and improvements.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * You can now upload SVGs - huzzah!
| |
| − | * Userpages and all talk pages have been noindexed, meaning they will no longer appear in search results (Google, Bing, etc.). This was done to help protect user privacy, and to keep discussions, draft, and fan content out of public search results. If you'd like your userpage to appear in search results again, just add <code><nowiki>__INDEX__</nowiki></code> to the top of it.
| |
| − | * While we've had these for a while, they've never been formally announced: if you go into your Preferences -> Gadgets, there are some nifty tools here that can enhance your browsing and editing experience, like a scroll-to-top button, talk page discussion counter, syntax highlighter, and more.

If you'd like to mockup the page in a sandbox to get an idea of how much info there is that would be helpful. And then if it looks good we can move it to the main article space. At the very least though, sleep schedules deserve mention in the personality section on the [[villager]] page. I think they are only mentioned on the individual personality pages right now.

| − | == Doubutsu no Mori e+ Monthly Fishes: New pages or extra sections on Animal Crossing pages? ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Hi. I was asked to post this question here because I added sections for {{DnMe+}} on [[https://nookipedia.com/wiki/Fish/Animal_Crossing/January]] and subsequent articles up to May atm, and while I didn't think much about them, I should have probably asked others beforehand.
| |
| − | Here's the issue, resumed:
| |
| − | * {{DnMe+}} was missing all pages for monthly fishes, so I, instead of making new pages per month for the 8 new fishes added to this game, decided to include those in a section of the {{PG}} monthly fishes pages.
| |
| − | * While I did it to prevent copying all {{PG}}'s monthly pages only to add those 8 fishes, or for making a really short page, it hadn't occurred to me that such change could be questionable, as both games are seen as quite different, but in reality {{DnMe+}} hadn't expanded much on the fishes, bugs, and fossils areas.
| |
| − | Given that the changes I tried to do weren't as small as I thought, I came here to ask everyone interested for a better solution to this. By either undoing the changes and placing that list on its own page, changing the title to reflect the actual change inside of the article, or by doing something someone else thinks that's better. {{Unsigned|SEISHI★}}
| |
| − | :I {{Oppose}}. I'd prefer to make a list Like [[Fish/Doubutsu no Mori e+/May|this]]. Petaldancer66😺 [[User:Petaldancer66|Petaldancer66]] [[User talk:Petaldancer66|talk]] 19:09, July 22, 2021 (EDT)

| − |
| |
| − | :First off, I just want to say that I appreciate you taking the initiative work with cargo and generate these tables for us. You've done a great job so far. That said, while I agree that it does seem a little silly to generate a very similar table for e+ on its own page, we've established a naming system where each game gets its own yearly and monthly lists, regardless of how similar those lists may end up being. ({{DnM+|nolink}} doesn't get its own list because it is the Japanese version of {{PG|nolink}}, even though there are significant localization differences between them.) So, in summary, for consistency I think it would be better to have the full e+ list on its own page.

| − | ::I see, I probably should have done that from the very beginning instead of deciding on my own to simplify everything (even if it was mostly copying and pasting code). Unless I see someone else has fixed what I've done in the time I wasn't around, I'll start undoing my changes and creating the respectives pages for each month in e+.

| − | :I agree that for games prior to {{NH|short}}, all stationery deserve their own item pages.

| |
| − | :::You know, thinking about it again I think I've changed my mind lol. There are stationery items in previous games that are unobtainable (although they sometimes appear in the catalog), so existing as an inventory item or place-able object is kind of an arbitrary rule to decide on whether or not something is an item. Plus, there is a mailbox 'inventory' of sorts that can store letters in {{NH|short|nolink}}. Using the existing infobox templates on designated item pages would also be easier/more consistent. So I think I'm on board with the idea. I'm still curious what other editors think though.

| − | == Link template refactor ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Hello everyone, I wanted to get your thoughts on re-coding our [[:Category:Link templates|link templates]]. Right now they use a lot of nested switches and are a bit dense/difficult to edit. But more than just replicating the original functionality, I also wanted to take this opportunity to improve them and wanted to get your input on this.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Proposed changes:
| |
| − | * Shortening the <code>nolink</code> parameter to <code>nl</code>.
| |
| − | * Removing the <code>shorter</code> parameter altogether and just having the long name ({{NH}}), the short name ({{NH|short}}), and the abbreviation ({{NH|shortest}}).
| |
| − | * Changing the default behavior to produce the short name ({{NH|short}}) instead of the full name ({{NH}}).
| |
| − | ** Adding the parameter <code>full</code> to produce the full name ({{NH}}).
| |
| − | * Changing the <code>shortest</code> parameter (e.g. {{NH|shortest}}) to <code>ab</code> (short for 'abbreviation') or <code>acro</code> (short for 'acronym').
| |
| − |
| |
| − | These link templates are the most used templates on the site. The {{t|NH}} template alone is used on over 30,000 pages, so this is something that would affect nearly every page of the wiki (as at least one of these templates is probably found there). Would love to hear your thoughts on the proposed changes, and also on implementation. Do you even think it's worth it to change these templates? All feedback is welcome.

| |
| − | == Addressing problematic issues with the [[Nook Shopping seasonal event]] page ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | This is not something that can be easily swayed for given the circumstances at hand here, but I think we may as well address the current uprising.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | As of now, Nintendo is leaning focus to perpetuate a cycle of [[Nook Shopping seasonal event]]s while they wiggle it out with adding new content. Looking at these "events" closely, the only major factor is that these events just has the player purchase them via Nook Shopping and have it straight delivered from there.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | However, having it be logged in a single page present some problems. Firstly, although they are significantly minor events that are way less interactive than the previous events at hand, they are still events. They still count as an event internally through the game's code. Secondly, each event name has its own set of translations that cannot simply be fit on a page that is already becoming too big. There's also the added bonus of not being able to use interlanguage links to our German affiliate for these specific events, but they do have a unified page, so it isn't a problem.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | What is a problem though, is that as Nintendo continues to grow the list of items, it's starting to grow more unbearable to add these new events and items to the table. And all that mess results in a table that is why less mobile friendly than it is. The table looks good on desktop, but looks outright intimidating on mobile. There are ways to make the table not stick out as a sore thumb, but because all that information needs to be scrolled horizontally, there is the potential for readers to not see a complete information.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | At this point, there are three ways to approach this issue:
| |
| − | #Create pages for Nook Shopping event. Now this won't eliminate the Nook Shopping event page in general, but it will help downsize the page's main table significantly since we want to assure that our mobile readers can read their info better by not forcing them to scroll horizontally. Individual pages also have the opportunity to add in missing translations that we have not added yet. This present a problem however, since there is very little to say about these events other than a small pace of words.
| |
| − | #Downsize the table into a few columns, and just have event names, date, or description. It's not ideal, certainly there are merits to have info about this events, but it is something to help improve readability on this page.
| |
| − | #Transform the table into an article-based structure where each event gets a date and the list of items. This would mean that we'd have a longer page to scroll through, but it is certainly better than having a table that readers will need to horizontally scroll though to see the other portions of information.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | These are just a few ways to go through this issue, but I'd like to know what are your thoughts on the option and if there are any ways to address this problem. -- [[User:PanchamBro|PanchamBro]] ([[User talk:PanchamBro|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/PanchamBro|contributions]]) 04:19, August 10, 2021 (EDT)
| |
| − | :I think we should treat them as standard events and give them their own pages. Even though they only offer an item and some info about the event itself, at the end of the day that's all the minor events in previous games were (going to Isabelle/Tortimer and getting an item and some event-exclusive dialog).

| |
| − |
| |
| − | :I agree with Alexbot2004 that each event should have its own page. That will solve the translation issue and will open up the opportunity to cargo store event info (if we aren't doing that already). As for the table issue, I think it would be great if we could develop some way to have tables display less columns on screens with less space. If that's not feasible, I think moving the description to each event's individual article page will go a long way to reduce horizontal scrolling. You could also condense columns into the same cell (for example, place the date below the event name on a new line instead of in a separate column) to help with this as well since the table isn't sortable.

| − | == Where to link Wild World items to? ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Hi, I've recently been trying to edit some Wild World item lists to include their textures in pages like this:
| |
| − | https://nookipedia.com/wiki/Wallpaper/Wild_World
| |
| − | I wanted to link the items to their individual pages, for example, the Ancient Wall to Item:Ancient Wall, but I found the only related item pages are for Animal Crossing (the first one) and for New Horizons. So my question is, is it fine for me to link the Wild World list to the Animal Crossing Item pages? And if it is, should they be edited to add the Wild World textures? Sorry if it has been discussed elsewhere, I didn't quite know where to ask this. --[[User:Roli300|Roli300]] ([[User talk:Roli300|talk]]) 08:33, September 3, 2021 (EDT)
| |
| − | :Our item pages are specific to one species of game, due to the fact that each game has its own set of data for each item. Though we haven't developed any ''Wild World'' item pages yet, you can help create those pages on this wiki.

| − |
| |
| − | :I just wanted to provide a bit more context for you in regard to your question. The wiki is moving towards a database-generated model for our item tables, meaning that we use a tool called [[Nookipedia:Project Database|Cargo]] to generate databases of items, and then we pull certain groupings of items (example:clothing, wallpaper etc.) from that database for display in tables. This way, we don't have to manually enter data cell by cell as is currently being done at [[Wallpaper/Wild World]]. In order to fill our cargo database, we create individual item pages, which have a special code in them that tells cargo to store whatever data fields we specify. So, you're more than welcome to work on a page like [[Wallpaper/Wild World]], but once the individual item pages are all created, the content at Wallpaper/Wild World will be replaced using a Cargo-generated table. Essentially your work on pages like this will eventually be 'erased'.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | :The workflow we are currently using is something like this:
| |
| − | #Extract data from the relevant {{PG|nolink}} game (item data & images/model renders)
| |
| − | #Compile that data in a spreadsheet, broken down by item category
| |
| − | #Create the appropriate cargo & infobox templates for each item type
| |
| − | #Create a script to automatically generate pages for each item using the appropriate template(s)
| |
| − | #Once the relevant item pages have been created, create pages for lists of items, populated using cargo queries
| |
| − |
| |
| − | :I'm not certain which stage we're at in this process for {{WW|short}} items, but we do have a channel on [[Nookipedia:Discord|Discord]] if you're interested in getting involved.

| − | == More hourly type pages for people who like playing at their local times ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | One of the main things that i wanted to add to this wiki was to add two more pages to it.One of them would be about hourly changes to the game, for example, for the 7 A.M. section of it, there could something saying stuff like, Animal Crossing -Nook n go opens- or for the 8 P.M. section of it, Animal Crossing City Folk -K.K. Starts playing songs- which is something I've wanted on this wiki for a long time. Another page idea is for hourly songs in all of the games as well as their rain and snow versions as well as their cherry blossom and e+ versions. {{Unsigned|Admin20Z}}

I agree that the sidebar should link to this page, rather than the project page. I don't support a redirect though, rather I think we should pare down the project page and transclude it to the top of the talk page. I suggested just keeping the 'things to do' and 'need help?' sections. If we do this though, we need to make sure we replace all links to the project page, since it will not be a redirect. This should be a relatively simple text replace.

| |
| − | :Also, this is perhaps a separate discussion, but how do we feel about changing the name of the Community Fountain to something else? It seems like maybe this was in reference to Serena's [[fountain]] in {{CF|nolink|short}}, and perhaps an AC-style take on Wikipedia's 'Village Pump'? Either way, I think that something like "The Bulletin Board" would be more appropriate, as it's something that is found in every game and its function is very similar to that of the Community Fountain (collecting messages/promoting discussion).

| − | :I think a table is the way to go. But I have bigger ideas... I'm working on ripping every game, and hopefully at some point everything will be done... right now only NL is and I intend to upload it soon. But each K.K. song has a different amount of variations in each game, and those variations themselves differ from game to game. So I think we should include each of these under each game's section under '''Appearances''' on a song's page. Personally, I think the best way to do this would be to use [[Template:Music Box]] in a similar fashion to the first part of [[User:SuperHamster/Sandbox/Red|SuperHamster's sandbox here]], with each box representing a variation of the song per game. For example, under a song's "In {{NL|short|nolink}}" section, we would have boxes for Live, Aircheck, Music Box, DJ KK House, and DJ KK NES. And text could go in these sections describing relevant aspects of the songs and how they changed in between games.

I saw the idea of improving [[Template:Tt]] was floated on the Discord, but I'm against that as it's still not intuitive and has accessibility concerns (and quite frankly, that template just needs to ''go'' at this point). I think it would be straightforward enough to add the romanisations into [[Template:Translation]] in plain text. Though...I must admit I've never really understood why the infoboxes even contain this information in the first place, given that we have a dedicated section for languages on each character's article.

Wikipedia often does the same thing for similar reasons, and the reason Japanese is of note is because that is the character's "original" name. I think it's better to be consistent than to just do some pages. That said, it's not that big of a deal to omit, as it's still present later in the article. As {{U|Dorsal Axe}} points out, there was talk of using the Tt template for infoboxes, but that discussion was actually about making it more clear, and accessible on other devices.

| |
| − | I'd like to propose adding a new page to the Nookipedia namespace (Nookipedia:Proposals), and creating a new formal process for implementing large-scale changes to the wiki. In the past, we've simply used the Community Fountain for this purpose, have held discussions on individual talk pages, or have discussed externally (Bulletin Board Forums/Discord) before coming to consensus and then taking action. I think that both this page and other individual talk pages are great for inviting discussion on a topic, generating ideas, and getting feedback, but for proposals that impact a large amount of pages or users, I think there should be a more formal approval process so that everyone has a chance to participate in discussion before implementation. Here are some of the ideas I had for this proposal system:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | * Proposals are necessary for changes that would affect a large number of pages or users. Some examples: rules/policy changes, adding/removing namespaces, making major modifications to/replacing templates that affect 1000+ pages.
| |
| − | * Proposals are for voting on fully worked out ideas. Proposals can be submitted without prior public comment or feedback, but should not receive major edits or changes once voting has started.
| |
| − | * The voting period for a proposal lasts a set period of time, similar to a staff application, and is open to vote and commentary from all editors.
| |
| − | * At the end of the voting period, the support/oppose tally will be counted by a staff member, and a specific user will be assigned to implement the change (it could be the user who submitted the propsal, or a staff member, as necessary). This helps to make sure the change takes effect as promptly as possible once a decision has been reached.
| |
| − | * Ideally, active proposals would be displayed on the main page, and staff members (or ribbot) could alert those with the Editor role on discord when a proposal is coming to a close.

| |
| − | :{{Comment}} So far this is looking good, and as the rest of the staff will know, I've long been a supporter of this idea. However, there's a few questions I'd like to ask before I consider a vote:
| |
| − | :1. Will there be a minimum support percentage needed? What happens if there's a tie? Does the proposal get extended?
| |
| − | :2. You've suggested that voting and commentary would be open to all editors. I agree that anyone should be able to comment, but allowing IP voting is not something I'm keen on. It would be too easy for someone to vote twice.

| − | :3. Regarding assigning someone to make the changes; this could work, but it could also get messy. Can you explain a little more on how this would work?
| |
| − | :4. Will we just be limited to Support/Oppose proposals, or will we be able to create ones with three or more options (this could also get messy)?
| |
| − | :Overall though, great work so far, and I look forward to seeing how this develops!

| − | :::Answering your questions:
| |
| − | ::1. I had initially thought it would be simple pass/fail based on the number of support vs oppose votes, but I think it makes more sense to get 2/3 majority (similar to the adjustments put forward by {{u|SuperHamster}} at [[Nookipedia talk:Staff/Apply]]). This also solves the tie problem, as a tie vote would not be enough to pass. As far as proposal extensions are concerned, I think it should be at the discretion of the staff member(s) who is/are in charge of administering/closing the proposal process. So, an extension could be requested by the user who submitted the proposal, or it could be extended independently by a staff member, at their discretion.
| |
| − | ::2. I agree that all those who intend to vote must have an account/be logged in. Additionally, I think that only registered users should be able to put forth proposals.
| |
| − | ::3. After thinking about how assigning specific users (or even user ranks) would work, I think that it makes things a bit overly complicated. We would need to have some conversation about this among staff members, but I think that it could be the role of bureaucrats to administer/close voting on proposals, and then, if a proposal passes, they should then either enact the proposal themselves, or coordinate with other staff members to make sure the proposal is completed. Perhaps a bureaucrat is responsible for closing voting, and then whoever actually enacts the proposal follows up and adds a note to the closed proposal to confirm it has been completed. The bureaucrat could be responsible for adding the task to the Nookipedia Tasks board, for example. Alternatively, they might discuss the proposal implementation process in either the staff channel on Discord, or on some other channel explicitly created for handling proposals.
| |
| − | ::4. I think a proposal should not have any yet-to-be-determined components. It should be a complete proposal with no 'option a, b, or c'. This is why getting input prior to submitting the proposal (e.g. by posting about it here), should continue to be encouraged.

All you have to do is add <code>subtitlebelow = gallery</code> to the infobox template and it will show this link if a gallery subpage exists. --[[File:Shark HHD Icon.png|20px]] [[User:Dorsal Axe|<span style="color:#0B3E57; font-family: Coustard">Dorsal Axe</span>]] <span style="font-family: Coustard"><small>([[User talk:Dorsal Axe|talk]])</small></span> 11:30, November 23, 2021 (EST)

| − | == Music in infoboxes ==
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Thanks to {{u|Kalina70}}'s hard work, we have tables for each version of a song on K.K.'s song pages, and event and location pages have a similar music section. (They currently generally only have the versions from {{NL|short}} and {{NH|short}} since that's what I've finished ripping, but the rest are still to come.) Right now, the infoboxes for each of these types of pages has the newest and/or default version of the song, and the tables in the music section are missing these since they're in the infobox. I am proposing that at the very least all versions of the song are included in the table, and that perhaps they're unnecessary in the infobox at all now that we have dedicated music sections.

| |
| − | :{{Support}} I think it would be good if that were the case as it doesn't make sense that there is two songs from NH in infobox, but the rest of the music from other games in the music section. Btw i can do it if proposal will be supported. {{User:Kalina70/Sig}} 13:44, November 23, 2021 (CET)
| |
| − | :{{Support}} I've been thinking the same thing, and it's kind of confusing having it in both the infobox and the table. I think going forward, we should only have music in the infobox for video game articles (e.g. the main theme of the game) and articles for K.K. Slider songs (where each song is always the same across different games). --[[File:Shark HHD Icon.png|20px]] [[User:Dorsal Axe|<span style="color:#0B3E57; font-family: Coustard">Dorsal Axe</span>]] <span style="font-family: Coustard"><small>([[User talk:Dorsal Axe|talk]])</small></span> 11:26, November 23, 2021 (EST)
| |
| − | :{{Support}} - I agree with {{u|Dorsal Axe}} that we should just have one song in the infobox and it should be limited to K.K. Slider Songs & main themes. I also agree that the music table should list all versions of the song (even if that means the song appears twice on the page- once in the infobox and once in the table).

| − | Currently, we divide the other appearances section from the villager information section, but given how {{HHD}} and {{PC}} are still ''Animal Crossing'' games, we should move the {{HHD|short|nolink}} and {{PC|short|nolink}} sections up to villager information and leave the other appearances for {{Film}} and (if applicable) the ''Super Smash Bros. series'' and ''Mario Kart 8''. -- [[User:PanchamBro|PanchamBro]] ([[User talk:PanchamBro|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/PanchamBro|contributions]]) 11:15, November 23, 2021 (EST)

| |
| − | :{{Oppose}} - I think that this makes things a bit confusing as it departs from the way these games are organized in the Infobox (they are listed under 'Other appearances'). I think the distinction between main-series titles and spinoffs is important, especially when it comes to items, and specifically when it concerns {{PC}} (e.g. {{PC|short|nolink}}-only fish and bugs that don't function the same as they do in other games). '''Edit:''' I understand this proposal is specifically for villagers, but these pages would then be inconsistent with other article pages.

| − | ::I see where you're coming from, but [[Anchovy (fish)|when you address fish and bugs, there are some that have both {{PC|short|nolink}} and mainline games all under the same section]]. In my opinion, it would be nicer to have the information unified under one section, given how large {{T|PCVillagerInfo}} has become thanks to my redesign. Perhaps we could move the "Other appearance" section to be above "House", but I don't know how viable it could be. -- [[User:PanchamBro|PanchamBro]] ([[User talk:PanchamBro|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/PanchamBro|contributions]]) 13:08, November 27, 2021 (EST)

Comment Are there existing pages where themes/sets and series have been merged? I'd like to know what they look like. Also I don't understand why translations should matter in decisions like these since this is an English wiki. Could you clarify/expand your reasoning here, please?

Support It makes sense to have them. It makes things easier. --Dr. Peach (talk) 12:01, March 14, 2022 (EDT)
Oppose for the same reasons HylianAngel says. This seems unnecessary (I see no real use for it) and honestly I think it will just create confusion, especially where redirects are necessary. If someone wants to find a character's ID or what an ID is they can go to the list page, the character's page or search for the ID. But on this topic, I'll try to finish the list pages so we can move them to the main namespace. Chubby Bub (talk) 21:43, March 15, 2022 (EDT)
