:You can see this on the [[Dragon (type)]] page you just pointed out — the only fact in the entire section that isn't part of those templates is that most Dragon-types have wide movepools, which is itself vague and potentially opinionated (how wide constitutes wide enough to be worth mentioning? how many Dragon-types is enough to be worth mentioning?).

:: I think this is a good idea, but should be brought up with the bulbapedia admins (as it is quite a substantial change). Who would be the best person to query regarding this issue? --[[User:Mindlord0013|Mindlord0013]] ([[User talk:Mindlord0013|talk]]) 08:21, 20 February 2014 (UTC)
