[edit] German article structure

I think it might be a good idea to poach the German Wikipedia's article structure. Machine translation of the de.Wikipedia article - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 06:18, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Incoming links

{{Pokémon species}} links to Pokémon#Generations and its old subheaders. Something should be done about this, probably by modifying the template and redirecting it somewhere appropriate in Pokémon (video games). - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 06:39, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Very Intresting

I just saw this page. It looks very nice. It appears to be a draft for improvements to the Pokémon page. If some of these ideas are used then we could get the Pokémon page featured. If you are fine with it I made a small edit to this page. I just removed that merge template as it suggests that a red-linked page get merged in. Why suggest that a non-exsisting page be merged? If you are not fine then you can just revert. The idea to drastically shorten this section sounds good. Perhaps removing most of the second paragraph would be helpful. I am happy to see that you marked a couple places where citations are needed, as I have been trying to find citations for the Pokémon article for a couple days. I will try to find citations for those areas then add them to the actual Pokémon page. Funpika 21:43, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

Feel free to help however you want or however you can. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 05:01, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

Okay then, I will add some of these ideas to the actual Pokémon page. Funpika 19:13, 26 February 2007 (UTC)

How's this for a Very Interesting Poke-pun: The Pokeman anatony features a Baltoy in the front area between the legs, and it is four inches away from the Arseus at the back end. XD

Anyway, I now have the videogame section rewritten. Erik Jensen ^{(Appreciate|Donate)} 22:42, 27 February 2007 (UTC)

I don't like that organization that much. I liked it better when there were sections for each generation. Funpika 23:23, 28 February 2007 (UTC)

That really belongs in the video game article, but it's pretty OR-ish. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 04:46, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Would you consider this game section good to be put on the actual Pokemon page yet? If not, bear in mind that my rewrites in general are meant to be revised and edited mercilessly to become better. Erik Jensen ^{(Appreciate|Donate)} 05:36, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

It's probably still too long, and too focused on listing instead of describing. Do we need to know every single Pokemon puzzle game Nintendo has released, or that Nintendo periodically releases puzzles games using Pokemon characters? This level of detail is what we need for this article, an overview of the franchise, instead of itemizing each single game.

That said, it's 100 times better than what we have, and could go into the actual article right now. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 06:20, 1 March 2007 (UTC)

Ah, well, questions like that can be dealt with by the community once it is implemented into the page. I'll think of inputting it now. Erik Jensen ^{(Appreciate|Donate)} 06:23, 1 March 2007 (UTC)
