::I think the story of [[wikipedia:New Coke|New Coke]] is a relevant cautionary tale here. Beware decisions made by a tiny selection of the market, do not simply assume that backlash will go away, and never think a decision is too big to reverse.

:::I do know who you are talking about, and that comment can certainly be seen as being in bad taste... But I do want to make it clear that this Bulbagarden staff member and any other staff member not listed on [[BP:Staff]] are part of a different Bulbagarden project and while they do have additional avenues to reach out to us, they are not involved in Bulbapedia's editorial decision making process.

::::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 '''strongly oppose''', mostly due to the reaction caused by moving "Starter Pokémon" to "First partner Pokémon". I do feel like using such drawn out terms would cause side-effects that Bulbapedia readers suffer from the most. After all, Bulbapedia has been an influential force in the Pokémon community, and it still remains like that today. --'''[[User:Bfdifan2006|<span style="background:linear-gradient(90deg,#f83,#3fa);background-clip:text;color:transparent">Bfdifan2006</span>]]''' ([[User talk:Bfdifan2006|talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/Bfdifan2006|contribs]]) 19:02, 30 March 2024 (UTC) | ::::I '''strongly oppose''', mostly due to the reaction caused by moving "Starter Pokémon" to "First partner Pokémon".
