The concept of "beta" and "alpha" during the development of a game is rather subjective. Additionally, | The concept of "beta" and "alpha" during the development of a game is rather subjective. Some developers may call "beta" a stage in which the game is close to the finish product, whereas others consider it a stage in which the game is barely playable. Additionally, we can't know for sure at which point in the game's development was an aspect included, removed or changed. | ||
As such, the usage of these 2 words, unless strictly confirmed, should be avoided. Please [http://www.pikminwiki.com/index.php?title=Special%3ASearch&redirs=0&search=Beta&fulltext=Search&ns0=1 search for "beta"], and remove every trace of it, replacing it with "unused", "prototype" or "early", whichever fits the case better. Most of the time, you'll want to refer to "an earlier version of" the game, a model, etc. | |||

<s>A new attribute has been added to the [[:Template:Infobox enemy|enemies' infoboxes]]: max deaths. This is the maximum number of Pikmin that can die in a single attack.

===Game names=== | ===Game names=== | ||
Some instances of the names ''Pikmin'' and ''Pikmin 2'' are formatted and named incorrectly. In other words, there are still some articles out there that call the first game "Pikmin 1". There are two things that need to be done. Every time the first game is referred, it shouldn't contain the number 1. And every time either game is mentioned, its name should be ''italicized''. These changes should not break the [[Pikipedia:Policy|policies]], though. | |||
Additionally, when referring to the series, ''Pikmin'' must still | Additionally, when referring to the series, ''Pikmin'' must still be italicized. | ||
=== | ===Walkthroughs=== | ||
Some enemies don't have a | Some articles about enemies, caves and Challenge Mode levels don't have a strategy/walkthrough section. The articles that do have one aren't coherent. Some of them have the strategies in a section on the bottom, others have the strategy hidden within the regular description text; some call the reader "you" and provide walkthroughs, others use the term "the player" and explain strategies in a more general way... A consistent style for these must be discussed sometime in the future. | ||

Most treasure articles still lack proper information as to the location and collection of the treasure.

*For pages that have a "Brawl trophy" section, we should rename it to "Brawl trophy description". It looks better that way. | |||
*Images require, for the most part, vastly improved descriptions. These do not have to be long or detailed, but concise and accurate, just a sentence about what the image is of, probably with a link to its subject if there's an article on it. | |||
