[edit] Art style

Shouldn't there be a line or two about the striking break in art style from the 4 previous seasons? Circeus 20:06, 23 February 2006 (UTC)

Agreed. While Tamers had a different art style, Savers' style is much different from the past four seasons. I'm getting pretty excited :D--Zippo 12:52, 29 March 2006 (UTC)

Is it just me or do the DATS uniforms look like the Earth Sphere uniforms from Gundam SEED almost exactly? I wonder if there's some staff connection.--Kiyosuki 00:37, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

Actually, the character designer is the same guy who did SEED, I think. Something to that extent. -- Ned Scott 04:50, 2 April 2006 (UTC)

I'm reminded more of Tokusou Sentai Dekaranger than of Gundam Seed.

[edit] Citing sources

A great deal of information in Digimon articles simply comes from observation from the show, thus making the show itself the source. Because of this there hasn't always been a lot of source citing in Digimon articles. Digimon Savers articles will be hammered with info in these next few months, much of which can't always be assumed as cited from the show as some of us only speak English. For the time being I would like to ask that extra steps be taken with edits to Savers related articles, and cite new information as much as you can. There are a few ways which you can cite a source in the article, see Wikipedia:Citing sources for the correct tags and details.

For example, we have many Digimon creatures that are new. To prevent fake articles, or articles with incorrect titles, we want to make sure that the sources for these names are good.

Also, you can tag other people's un-cited additions by adding {{citeneeded}} after the statement in question is made. Be sure to state what is it you want cited in either your edit history or in that article's talk page. -- Ned Scott 03:47, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

For those who don't want to read the whole Wikipedia:Citing sources article, one method of citing sources within an article is the use of the <ref> tag. For more info see [[m:Cite/Cite.php#<ref>]]. -- Ned Scott 04:43, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

There's a wiki page at WP:FOOTNOTE now. Circeus 13:16, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Spoilers

I would also like to ask that people use the {{spoiler}} tag for any major spoilers (and don't forget to close the tag with {{endspoiler}}, so it's specific as to what area on the article is a spoiler and what is not). This might not be necessary for ALL information in the show, so just use common sense. Tag events that are considered "surprises" or major developments in the plot. -- Ned Scott 03:49, 7 April 2006 (UTC)

I did but my thing about Ikuto was taken out. Why???—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Educationrecreationinformation (talk • contribs) .

Yes, you did add spoiler tags, but you added speculation, which shouldn't be in a Wikipedia article, per WP:V. Basically, unlike fansites, we can only include the information we are sure on. -- Ned Scott 06:22, 16 June 2006 (UTC)

But it was recently confirmed in V-Jump magazine.-Educationrecreationinformation

If that's true, then you're welcome to include the information. Be sure to mention the V-Jump magazine as the source of info so people will know it's real. -- Ned Scott 18:58, 22 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Digimon Story?

At "see also", there is mentioned DS game Digimon Story, but it is mentioned nowhere in article. Why? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 213.139.169.42 (talk • contribs) .

While the game is released at the same time, there usually isn't a direct plot tie in. From what I can see, the Digimon games that get released simply feature Digimon from the current running anime, so there's not really a lot of relation other than that. But if you have anything else to add about the connection between the two, feel free to add it. -- Ned Scott 21:56, 19 June 2006 (UTC)

Well, Masaru, Touma, and Yoshino do appear in it.

[edit] Tamers

Have they actually been called tamers in the series yet? -- Ned Scott 00:27, 3 July 2006 (UTC)

Nope. Shining Celebi 15:21, 11 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Adding new info

I know a lot of users are eager to add new info from Digimon Savers, like what the latest evolution of a Digimon is and such, but it might help to just wait till those episodes actually air so you have a verifiable source. Most fan sites and such contain a huge amount of speculation and are generally not seen as "verifiable", at least not as a main source. If you do want to add new info, try to see where the fansite got it's information, and cite that instead. For example, don't cite a fansite because it said it found info off of a Digimon toy, cite the toy itself. But again, remember that according to WP:V that "The threshold for inclusion in Wikipedia is verifiability, not truth." If you are not sure about something, and you don't have a link or info to back it up, then don't add it until you are sure or you do have that info. -- Ned Scott 05:07, 9 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Nanami, Ivan and Kouki

It´s not clear if these three get Digimon Partners. It is actually more likely that Lotsumon and BioSpinomon are more advanced forms of their original forms. Sure they are shown next to these Digimon, but that was also the case in the first pic of them.

[edit] The whole page was destroyed!

Now it's been vandalized into this...fake Digimon. What happened!?

• She's not fake, just in the wrong place, at the wrong time...
