User talk:Werdnae/Archive 4: Difference between revisions

For over a month, {{u|SnorlaxMonster}} has neglected to answer {{DL|User talk:SnorlaxMonster|Side series|my query}}, so I've come to you instead. {{DL|Talk:Generation VI|"For the first time in the main series, the games will be in full 3D"?|According to him}}, it was decided years ago that the Stadium, Box, and Colosseum series make up the "side series" rather than main or spin-off series. At my prodding, the respective games' pages were updated to acknowledge this, but we still have no template or mainspace page for side series, so all those links still redirect to spin-off series, [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Template:Games&curid=11934&diff=1951987&oldid=1917244 to the confusion of uninformed users]. I drafted the article and template we need in my userspace ([[User:Pumpkinking0192/Side series]] and [[User:Pumpkinking0192/Template:Side series]]). Are these suitable for mainspacing? If not, how can I fix that? [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 03:24, 13 August 2013 (UTC)

:There was some miscommunication, resulting in a 'decision' to change the naming scheme being made without the proper input or approval of the Editorial Board, which is required for such a large, widespread change. There are several issues with the rename which have been brought to our attention and the change has been put on hold until the issues can be sorted, but it's taking a long time because there are many more things which are significantly more important, such as a number of very complex templates needing a complete rebuild before XY due to new mechanics. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 08:52, 13 August 2013 (UTC)
