Hey ! :) I've recently came upon this idea of revamping the Pokémon boardgames pages by updating the stuff, adding the boxes' blurbs, the content, etc. I wanted to know if it's possible to create an infobox for these articles. It would include the name of the game, a picture of the whole game, the year or released in different regions, the number of pieces, the publisher, etc. I would make sure it's well made and everything. I saw that the boardgames pages are kinda "empty" and I wanted to revamp them ! I'd be so glad to be given this task ! :3 [[User:MannedTooth|<span style="color:#FF8000"> MannedTooth </span>]] ([[User_Talk:MannedTooth|Talk]]) 17:50, 25 September 2016 (UTC) | Hey ! :) I've recently came upon this idea of revamping the Pokémon boardgames pages by updating the stuff, adding the boxes' blurbs, the content, etc. I wanted to know if it's possible to create an infobox for these articles.

:If you want to make a prototype in your userspace, I will consider it. Remember that "board games" is a broad category and each game can vary wildly ([[Guess That Pokémon]] is absolutely not similar to Pokémon Monopoly or Pokémon Master Trainer). Be sure to review all the articles in {{cat|Board games}} to ensure that you can make a template that actually makes sense for the wide variety of games out there. Also consider there may be more games out there that don't have articles yet... I've seen a modern Johto Monopoly version floating around in EB Games and in hobby shops. So that would be something that requires research as well.

::I'm more than willing to put time and effort into researching the board games ! :) [[User:MannedTooth|<span style="color:#FF8000"> MannedTooth </span>]] ([[User_Talk:MannedTooth|Talk]]) 02:16, 26 September 2016 (UTC) | |||
:::Based myself on the CD template, [[User:MannedTooth/Boardgame_Infobox|here is what it looks like]]. It' pretty basic but I don't think we need much more. By the way, am I allowed to take pictures found on ebay/amazon of the games? [[User:MannedTooth|<span style="color:#FF8000"> MannedTooth </span>]] ([[User_Talk:MannedTooth|Talk]]) 05:54, 26 September 2016 (UTC) | |||
::::I would avoid images taken from eBay as they are likely to have been taken by the seller themselves. Stock artwork from Amazon is okay as long as it is stock and not a user uploaded image. (This is the same as with things like DVD and manga cover artwork). Generally we'd prefer to have images that are created by the user who is uploading them unless it's something completely generic like game/CD/DVD/manga/book cover artwork that's the same stock image anywhere. | |||
::::Your template is off to a good start... I would remove the "original game" parameter as it doesn't really apply to too many games (I think it only really applies to Monopoly and Yahtzee as they are licensed variants, remember that "Pokémon On a Roll" is not actually a license of Yahtzee and "Guess That Pokémon" is not actually a license of Guess Who?, it's just a similar concept). I would also suggest dumping the barcode number as I think it's kind of pointless lol. I'm okay with "number of pieces" but it would have to be specific and not just a random number...as each game is different, just listing the number of different pieces is kind of pointless. Using Monopoly for example, this parameter could be used to name how many player tokens, how many dice (die?), how many houses and hotels come with the game, number of chance and community chest cards, number of property cards, etc. Everything else seems fairly legit. [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|<span style="color:#006400">'''Zesty'''</span>]][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|<span style="color:#3CB371">'''Cactus'''</span>]] 01:39, 28 September 2016 (UTC) | |||
:::::Okay for the images! As for the original game parameter, I think it would be nice to mention it, I would put "None" on games not based on other or even just not show up that line in the infobox. As for the number of pieces, it's the same principle as when buying Legos, on the box there is always the number of pieces so I thought that would be sweet, the contents of the game would be listed in details in its own section. Lastly, for the barcode number, I was basing myself on the same thing that books have since it's supposed to be unique (ISBN or something like that). Anyway, I don't care much about that last parameter, I was just trying to add the more info I could. I'm going to work on [[Monopoly: Pokémon Edition (1999)]] and you can tell me what you think of the "final result". Thanks! :3 [[User:MannedTooth|<span style="color:#FF8000"> MannedTooth </span>]] ([[User_Talk:MannedTooth|Talk]]) 19:36, 28 September 2016 (UTC) | |||
::::::Lego and board games aren't comparable. It's not necessary to list the number of pieces as one lump sum - it doesn't really mean anything. The only way I would really consider it is if it's followed by a breakdown, for example: Pieces: 15 (5 xxxx pieces, 5 yyyy pieces, 5 zzzz pieces). | |||
::::::Again, I don't really think there's any point to adding the "original game" in the infobox since it applies to less than half of the board games currently in the category... and they're literally only the Monopoly and Yahtzee variants... it can be explained in the opening section of the article that it's a licensed variant of an existing game. I think adding it to the infobox would only be for the sake of filling space and doesn't really improve the article. Same with the barcode numbers. ISBNs are helpful because they can be used to easily locate a book in a database or online shopping site. Barcode numbers aren't as practical for locating items (and remember that books have separate barcode and ISBN numbers, too, if it was important we'd have listed both from the beginning).

:::::::So, long story short, I shall remove original game, number of pieces (since there is a content category) and the bar code? Apart from that, how is the template, ready to be used?

== Giovanni's Template (Adventures) == | |||
Since Giovanni in Adventures has three Pokémon with pages should he get his own template? If so I can make one.--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 05:15, 7 October 2016 (UTC) | |||

Is the page [[User:Rahl/Zeller]] ready to be mainspaced?--[[User:Rahl|Rahl]] ([[User talk:Rahl|talk]]) 04:23, 19 October 2016 (UTC) | |||
:I'm going to pass on this one as I don't believe the character is notable enough for an article of his own. Regardless, I'd also like to pass down a friendly reminder to proofread your articles for spelling and grammar before submitting them for mainspacing. In particular, please remember that "[[Poké Ball]]" is spelled as two words, as a proper noun and with the accented e, not as "Pokeball" (as you had it on the article), "Poke ball" "Pokéball" and "Poké ball" would also be incorrect. There were also a few sentences I found confusing due to a lack of punctuation (commas, etc). I don't mind helping you proofread grammar and punctuation (apparently I have an eye for that stuff...) but I'm not going to bother with this one since I don't think it's notable anyway lol.

==Zygarde (Adventures) proofreading== | |||

==Creation trio (Adventures)== | |||
Is it ok for the creation trio to get an Adventures page?[[User:Animaltamer7|Animaltamer7]]05:50, 6 November 2016 (UTC) | |||
:And probably the Tower duo as well?[[User:Animaltamer7|Animaltamer7]]01:57, 7 November 2016 (UTC) | |||
::Creation trio would be okay I guess since they impacted the plot of three different chapters (especially Giratina's involvement in the {{chap|Platinum}}). The existing section on the creation trio page is kinda crummy anyway so it would need some expansion regardless. I don't really think Tower duo is worth it though. They don't do anything significant other than what's already outlined on the page, right? I feel like making a separate page would just move over the existing content (which isn't taking up a disproportionate amount of room on the article) and then just a bunch of templates and stuff that would basically be filler.
