:::::Then how about your former editor-in-chief [https://twitter.com/MAGNEDETH/status/1767994725917675622 repeatedly] [https://twitter.com/MAGNEDETH/status/1767994975487197228 complaining] about the tediousness of the changes that you guys have to make, as if you guys don't have a choice in the matter? This really just seems like you're making things harder for yourself and everyone else for no real reason, and I really wish that there was more consideration made towards such a big change. I know that policies are different from wiki to wiki, and I also know for a fact that you guys aren't the only ones (currently) to prioritize official terminology over all, but at least with all of the rest, there's less of an argument to be had against doing so—this change is undoing literal decades of work that have a foundation in the fanbase for the third best-selling video game franchise.

:::I agree, the principle of least astonishment absolutely applies here. additionally, while "First Partner" was at least an established and consistently-used term in the franchise, the terms "Species Strengths" and "Individual Strengths" have nowhere near as much basis for usage, if any. Additionally, while "First Partner" changed a single page and [[Starter]] still redirects to the right page, we can't do the same with Base Stats. while this change might follow the letter of the policy regarding official name usage, it does not follow the spirit of it. I '''strongly oppose''' the move. lilycove 23:01, 10 May 2024 (UTC)
