IMHO I think we should unify all the articles perspectivves with /Olimar/Louie/a captain. 'the player' dosen't sound... right. It would be better if all the articles used the same thing, whatever that one perspective may be. My reason for this is that when we talk about the creatures, we don't talk about them in context of a videogame, but in context as if "Pikmin" was a scinetific exploration. We use scientific reasoning, ect and I think it just sounds weird when we cut that in with "the player". Just my two cents. {{User:IAMAHIPO ocolor/sig}} 08:36, 11 July 2009 (UTC) | IMHO I think we should unify all the articles perspectivves with /Olimar/Louie/a captain.

:IIRC, that's what they do at [[c:w:metroid|Wikitroid]], and for similar reasons. However, I think 'the player' is much better-suited for some pages, such as 2-player locations. Though, referring to the captains doesn't really makes it sound 'as if "Pikmin" was a scinetific exploration', but more like a story. I think, anyway, that if we do set strict rules regarding this, most people aren't going to notice them and are going to use their judgement anyway.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}} | :IIRC, that's what they do at [[c:w:metroid|Wikitroid]], and for similar reasons.

:Oh, and I think the imperative (orders) are often good for the 'how to kill' sections and parts of other walkthrough bits.{{User:Greenpickle/sig}} | |||
