 As the Special Stage page as grown in content, the heading order seems more and more random. Should the order be alphabetical instead? --[[User:Marlofkark|Marlofkark]] ([[User talk:Marlofkark|talk]]) 15:02, 18 September 2016 (UTC)
 :I'm not sure that alphabetical order is necessarily the best (though I'm not sure what would be better), but I do agree that this page could use some reorganizing. In particular, I've thought that Evolving Challenge should probably be a sub-group of Great Challenge and that the Meowth/Victini/Eevee stages ought to be grouped together due to the similarities they share.

+== In Other Languages section ==
+The languages section is totally empty at the moment, but what should we be putting there? Anything that lists its Japanese name in parentheses is probably a given, and that should cover most of the big categories.
+A lot of titles are a generic "x appears", and unless the JP titles are more creative we'd only need to translate the word "appears" for the full set, but that might not be notable enough for a languages entry.
+And then we've got several specific titles like "A Legendary Opportunity" or "Tepig Trots onto Stage". Should each of these have their translations listed? [[User:Boblers|Boblers]] ([[User talk:Boblers|talk]]) 08:36, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
+:Personally, I think anything with Japanese in parantheses is more than enough. Maybe even just the top-level headings plus the weekly events. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 23:38, 31 May 2017 (UTC)
+== The 24-Week Cycle ==
+In yesterday's update, data was added to automate most of Shuffle's events on a 24-week cycle through 2037. Since this covers several types of Special Stages, and listing specific event dates for the next several years would be redundant with the cycle, it seems like we'd need a layout overhaul to add all this information. With that in mind, should we make a large section on this page or just make a new page entirely to detail the automated schedule? --[[User:Boblers|Boblers]] ([[User talk:Boblers|talk]]) 16:31, 14 February 2018 (UTC)
+== Proposing move to "Special stage" ==
+In the in-game notices, the phrase "special stage" is not capitalized in sentences. Additionally, the [[Bulbapedia:Manual of style#Article_titles|Manual of style]] says we should try to have article names be singular in most cases. --[[User:Boblers|Boblers]] ([[User talk:Boblers|talk]]) 11:39, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
+:I agree. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 11:49, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
+== Proposing split into different event types ==
+This page is quite large as it is, to a point where it takes a while to load. There's plenty of info already here about the different stage types to justify their own separate pages, and there's even already a navbox that links to the different types separately. Splitting would also make distinguishing between stages before and after the final content update much easier - each page talking about one stage type could just have a section for final content and a section for former content. --[[User:Boblers|Boblers]] ([[User talk:Boblers|talk]]) 11:39, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
+:For sure. Escalation battles already do have their own article. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 11:49, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
