(→‎GO November update: new section)
Line 1,632: Line 1,632:


How about I update the stats at species pages (minus those that lack an image), invent some new params along the way (for pre-November stats), and when you've made up your mind on how you want to display the changes (footnote/tooltip/..), you (or anyone who can) updates the template accordingly? Seems more flexible than just outright adding a tooltip (which I don't think is an ideal solution anyway).

:If you can't go back to it, the note you seem to have added to the GO base stats page is about all that's necessary (although I also think it's also fairly pointless to link to the old version, or to do it quite like that). The moves were, as you say, easy enough to just add a comment to since they have their own section, but IMO that too was mostly pointless. Giving that a pass was just the path of least resistance; but if it will conflict with this (in such a way that someone can say "if it's notable for each move then it ''must'' be notable for each Pokemon as well"), then I would definitely rather say that it should be removed from move pages rather than mucking with the Pokemon info for something so trivial.
:It's possible I'm missing something. It's possible other staff more invested in GO than I would think differently. But you asked me, and that's my opinion... [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 21:13, 29 January 2017 (UTC)
