:To create pages you need to be autoconfirmed, which is achieved by performing a certain number of edits. The number of edits required is unknown.

::I'm sure I'll reach that number while working on this page. Could someone start it for me? (-: --[[User:GuyPerfect|GuyPerfect]] ([[User talk:GuyPerfect|talk]]) 19:59, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

== Split ==

The character encoding is not a unique feature of the save data structure. It is used by basically any string in the ROM. While no current data structure page for Gen I uses it, I'm sure there are data structures which could be given articles which would use the character encoding. The character encoding simply does not belong in a section here on the save data structure page. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 03:51, 1 April 2014 (UTC)
:I think the issue with this split is that it is not significant enough to have its own page. That's just my opinion though. --[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] ([[User talk:Spriteit|talk]]) 13:59, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
::I think the fact that it doesn't belong on this page is a much more significant issue. As someone who has previously searched this site for this information (and couldn't find it), this isn't the page I would've expected it to be on. While I agree that it'd be pointless to have a page for each generation, we should have one page that includes them all, and talks about the similarities and differences between eacher generation's character encoding.
