Incoherence. Wikis don't look nice and organized if nothing, format-wise, fits togather. Here's a list of things that I'm trying to fix. Help me if you want (not all of this deals with coherence, might I add): | Incoherence. Wikis don't look nice and organized if nothing, format-wise, fits togather.

*'''''Italicize ''games'''. For example, ''Pikmin'', ''Pikmin 2'', and ''Pikmin 3''. This is a biggy. Also, when you say "the Pikmin series," italicize "Pikmin" (so it becomes "the ''Pikmin ''series"). This is observed in every wiki that I have ever been on. | *'''''Italicize ''games'''.

**Sometimes articles have more than one official name (for example, PNF-404 and Wollywog). If an article falls in that category, bold the first time its other name(s) is used (like "Wollyhop" for Wollywog, or "Plant of the Pikmin" for PNF-404) | **Sometimes articles have more than one official name (for example, PNF-404 and Wollywog).

*Calling ''Pikmin ''"Pikmin 1" isn't something I like. It's kind of more like a pet peeve. By taking off the "1" and italicizing the game name, that should be enough to tell people it is a game, while keeping it's official title. For example, in the Kirby Wikia, they don't call ''Kirby's Dream Land *''"Kirby's Dream Land 1" even though the series also has ''Kirby's Dream Land 2 ''and ''3.'' | *Calling ''Pikmin ''"Pikmin 1" isn't something I like.
