Hi Solemn Mac. Thanks for your recent edits to the Masters pages and your ongoing help with these! However I have noticed that you've been adding trivia to many of these pages as well, most of which are not notable. Knowing what is notable comes with practice and time, however a few tips I can give you is that trivia like: 'Rosa was the ''first'' ___' or 'Rosa ''along with'' Cheren and Blaine are ___' generally do not constitute notable trivia. Something very specific like 'Rosa is the only non-Tech Grass-type which has __ theme skill' are not notable (note that this is just an example, not actual trivia that I removed from the pages). There were also some borderline-notable trivia which I've kept on the pages for now. If you wanted specific feedback about why each trivia was removed, I'm happy to answer any questions! --[[User:Wowy|<span style="color:#AAAAFF">'''Wowy'''</span>]][[User talk:Wowy|<sub style="color:#B69E00;">'''(talk)'''</sub>]] 11:46, 17 August 2022 (UTC) | Hi Solemn Mac.

: Firstly, thank you so much for expressing gentleness, respect, and openness while you talk straight! I find these qualities refreshing after not getting them from fellow editors for over a year. Secondly, may you please explain why following trivia does not count as being notable: "[Y] and [Z] are the only Trainers each to have three unique sets of voiced lines in one year"? Thirdly, would the following count as being noteworthy: "[Y] is the only Trainer to be a featured character in four events of one year"?

::Hey sorry for the late reply! I don't feel '[Y] and [Z] are the only Trainers each to have three unique sets of voiced lines in one year' would be notable, as the voiced lines themselves are already a niche aspect of the game. Also correct me if this is incorrect, but doesn't the number of unique voice clips just (approx) equal the number of alts the character received in that year? | |||
::Also, for the trivia point '[Y] is the only Trainer to be a featured character in four events of one year', I'm not too sure why how many times a character was represented in an event would be particularly notable. Not too sure how to put it into words but I don't feel its something that readers will need to know about. Hope that helps! --[[User:Wowy|<span style="color:#AAAAFF">'''Wowy'''</span>]][[User talk:Wowy|<sub style="color:#B69E00;">'''(talk)'''</sub>]] 05:24, 28 August 2022 (UTC) | |||
