Easy Ring
Should an article be created for this? I mean we could put template:noncanon on it or something. Meh... I don't know, though... Multus 23:46, 2 September 2011 (EDT)
- I'd personally have it noted somewhere in this article instead, seeing as it is fanon after all. Sun Braid 05:06, 3 September 2011 (EDT)
Enemy/Character names
This is an odd case considering we're working with two separate translations, but for things like enemy and character templates, would it be okay to have a separate section for the M1+2 Fan Translation names? I think it's somewhat important since the translation is being played more often than the prototype nowadays, and quite a few names are different/taken from EarthBound. Multus (talk) 13:14, 13 August 2012 (EDT)
- I thought we resolved this with WikiBound:Nomenclature? The understanding I had was that the M1+2 fan translation terms were to be redirects only. Miles (talk) 18:05, 13 August 2012 (EDT)
- I'm a bit wishy-washy on that now though, since it's been used more than the prototype. I mean, I don't think we should change the content of the articles themselves, but what I do think we should do is do sort of like what we do with the PSI moves and have a smaller section below the normal name for the Mother 1+2 names (ex:Offense Up), or on WikiBound:Nomenclature have a table or chart something like this, maybe as a subpage(or a subpage on Mother 1+2 fan translation):
