== LANDpedia  ==
I think LANDpedia should be deleted from this page, since on Encyclopaediae Pokémonis main page it has been removed--[[User:CiaobyDany|CiaobyDany]] ([[User talk:CiaobyDany|talk]]) 16:21, 10 April 2013 (UTC)
:As I am far from involved in the Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis side of Poképédia, I wonder what is happening about LANDpedia. As CiaobyDany said, LANDpedia is no more on the EP main page, and the website seems to be down for now quite some time. Does anyone have information?

== Pokéteca unavailable / no longer existing ==
Hi, I'm one of the staffers of Pokéteca. The site has been unavailable for a good while -since at least July- ending now with the domain being dead as well. The creator and maintainer, Habieru, seems to be unreachable{{tt|*|there's a twitter account, but that's past me}} as well, and has not even mentioned Pokéteca since at least March. To my knowledge, the site closed without notice.
What should be done in these cases? I've reflected some of the current situation in the [[Pokéteca]] page by marking it as unavailable. [[User:Solovino|Solovino]] ([[User talk:Solovino|talk]]) 03:50, 31 October 2013 (UTC)
== Latin of "Encyclopedias of Pokémon" ==
According to this quote:
::This translation takes the idea that "Pokémon" is both the singular and plural one step further, by using the singular "Pokémonis" rather than the plural "Pokémonum".
The Latin of Pokémon has been assumed to be in the third declension, so that its genitives are -nis and -um. But Pokémon is a shortened form of "Pocket Monster" (ポケットモンスター). The equivalent of "Monster" in Latin is "Monstrum", which is in the second declension. It seems a more logical way of naming it would be "Encyclopædiæ Monstri" or "Encyclopædiæ Monstrorum", which assumes both "Pocket Monster" and "Pocket Monsters" are shortened to "Pokémon". I understand that this choice was not made and it was done in the current way by assuming "Pokémon" to be in the third declension and taking the singular of it. But is there any explanation of why making this choice instead of the other?

:Using Pokémon makes it clear what it's talking about.  Most people wouldn't see Monstroum and think "Oh, that's about Pokémon". --[[User:Funktastic~!|<span style="color:#009900">'''It's'''</span> <span style="color:#CC66FF">'''Funktastic~!'''</span>]][[User talk:Funktastic~!|<sub><small><span style="color:#99CCFF">''話してください''</span></small></sub>]] 14:35, 25 April 2014 (UTC)
Which can be resolved by "Encyclopædiæ Pokémonstrorum". It was a typo that I missed out "Poké" in the front.

== No images on Japanese wiki specifically? ==
Anyone know why the specifically the Japanese wiki has zero images in their articles? Is it just a matter of server load, or is something else involved? All the other active language wikis have plenty of images. [[User:Blueapple128|Blueapple128]] ([[User talk:Blueapple128|talk]]) 22:07, 14 October 2018 (UTC)
:I have thought of that myself too, but I have no idea. I guess you'll have to ask them yourself. --[[User:Raltseye|<span style="color:#FF6464">R</span><span style="color:#11BB11">alts</span><span style="color:#6464FF">eye</span>]] [[User talk:Raltseye|prata med mej]] 11:12, 15 October 2018 (UTC)
::If I recall it has something to do with copyright and Fair Use being much more strictly engorced over in their country. --[[User:Spriteit|Spriteit]] ([[User talk:Spriteit|talk]]) 10:31, 17 October 2018 (UTC)
== Has anyone seen a Korean Pokémon wiki? ==
Of all nine languages officially supported by the Pokémon Company (that is, if we count Chinese twice as Traditional and Simplified, both covered by 52Poké), the only one not currently covered in Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis is Korean. Has anyone seen a competent Korean Pokémon wiki based on a Creative Commons license like all other EP members?

:Well, there really isn't one and since [http://ko.pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/대문 there is one on Wikia/FANDOOM] I suspect there won't be any until they move away from there. --[[User:Raltseye|<span style="color:#FF6464">R</span><span style="color:#11BB11">alts</span><span style="color:#6464FF">eye</span>]] [[User talk:Raltseye|prata med mej]] 12:53, 3 December 2018 (UTC)
::For them to move away, one of two things must happen first:
::* They get the same bad treatment WikiDex got in the past because of some glitchy infobox controversy.
::* They happen to dislike the imminent change in domain name (from Wikia.com to FANDOOM.com with the double OO replaced with a single O, because I don’t know if the real name is blocked by Bulbapedia’s word filters in the same way Wikia detects “wikidex” as a spam word and refuses to save any page containing “wikidex”) which itself is another controversy, and I hope this is the case (because there are way too many Wikia wiki founders/admins opposed to the domain-name changeover and threatening to leave Wikia altogether if the domain name changes permanently).

:::I agree with you. Also no Bulbapedia isn't that stupid that they block names of their rivals. Heck we've even got [[The Pokémon Wiki|articles on]] [[Serebii|our rivals]]. Besides, I think Wikia is going to be more and more disconected with the wiki sphere/term in the long run so a Korean wiki in EP is not unplausible even if it may take some time. --[[User:Raltseye|<span style="color:#FF6464">R</span><span style="color:#11BB11">alts</span><span style="color:#6464FF">eye</span>]] [[User talk:Raltseye|prata med mej]] 16:55, 4 December 2018 (UTC)
== Can you accept FANDOM wiki website? ==
Hello everyone. Now I make a FANDOM website about Pokémon in Vietnamese ([https://pikapedia.fandom.com/vi/wiki/ Here is this wiki]).
I want this wiki to be a Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis page, but I don't think you will accept it because it's FANDOM wiki. If you accept, can you give it to Encyclopædiæ Pokémonis?-[[User:Jikest248|P I K A C H U ALONE]] ([[User talk:Jikest248|talk]]) 14:32, 20 January 2020 (UTC)
