Now that Snakebos more or less improved treasure articles, and as I said on his Talk page, maybe out next project could be to improve enemy pages, that or the 2-player battle areas, as their pages are lacking in information (.e.g. Maps).

Second, nothing is said about italicising the series - the section is about game names, titles of an actual piece of released media only. In fact, I think it's better if references to the series aren't italicised, so that every time you see ''Pikmin'', you know it must be the game we're talking about. "Pikmin" without italics, then, could be the species or the series, but those are easier to differentiate between from the context, IMO. <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span> | Second, nothing is said about italicising the series - the section is about game names, titles of an actual piece of released media only.

:That's really minor, but I don't see why we shouldn't change it to a more descriptive title. Although what you suggested seems kinda long... Instead of "''Super Smash Bros.

:::What I meant was that in order to confirm the statistics of each sublevel, we'll have to count them, and reset to count again to see if it is consistent.

::::Oh, okay. I guess we're hoping the numbers don't change, then.

:::::Right. Of course, some things will vary, most notably the number of hazards. Depending on the layout of the sublevel (as they're randomly generated) there may be extra hazards that weren't there before, so some sublevels may have inconsistencies in them. We'll have to label them as ?, ''x'', or some other synonymous symbol/phrase. {{User:PikminFanatic23/sig}} | |||
Okay, looks like most of this can probably be grabbed automatically from the game data. I see eggs, gates, plants, enemies and hazards. Some of the formatting is a bit weird, and I don't understand some things, but it looks consistent. <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 12:54, 14 March 2013 (EDT) | |||
:[http://stuff.ikn.org.uk/fileshare/caveinfo.zip Here] is the data I have ATM. It's in plain text and wiki format, with both 2nd- and 3rd-level headings. Some numbers may be wrong as we discussed in the IRC - you might want to cross-reference with [http://stuff.ikn.org.uk/stuff/guides/Pikmin%202%20guide.txt my guide] (which may also be wrong...) if any are doubtful.

I'm thinking we should introduce a new category, ''Obstacles'', which include gates and clogs. Also, for the sake of simplicity, we should just group black and white gates together as "gates". Right now, I'm currently working on the Dream Den... {{User:PikFan23/sig}} | |||
:Category in what sense? We already have a [[:category:obstacles]]. And with the grouping, do you mean in article text, where they're mentioned? I don't think that's something we need a standard for - you just use whatever seems the most natural when you're writing it. <span style="font-family:times;color:#080">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|G]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050">P</span>]]'''''</span> 05:43, 8 July 2013 (EDT) | |||
== Fruit == | |||
Maybe things are more inactive here than I realize, but I personally believe that the Fruit pages should be a bit of a priority. Then again, maybe I am missing something. Thoughts? [[User:Joshduman|Joshduman]] ([[User talk:Joshduman|talk]]) 22:57, 4 November 2013 (EST) | |||
:The thing is ''all'' Pikmin 3 content is on top priority right now. But because none of the main editors has the game, so far, that is going nowhere.

Actually, I was told by Prezintenden that he had the game . . . but perhaps he is simply going through a busy period. Or my memory is guilty of deception. But you can ask him, or better, and most likely, he will respond here. -{{User:Los Plagas/sig}} | |||

==Trig's Clean-Up== | |||
If at all possible, I would like to add [[User talk:Trig Jegman/Project Clean-Up|My Clean-Up project]] to this page.

==New project proposals== | |||
I propose 3 new projects: | |||
*'''Add ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'' Side Stories information''' – while every mission has an article with basic information, many need detailed descriptions, guides, and names in other languages. | |||
*'''Upload ''Pikmin 3 Deluxe'' images''' – There are many area differences between the versions of ''Pikmin 3'', and there are a lot of Side Stories image still needed. | |||
*'''Document menus''' – A lot of [[menu]] articles could be documented better, with more details on graphics and button functions, and most menus in ''Hey! Pikmin'' are missing information entirely. | |||
— [[User:Botanist|'''Botanist''']]<sub>[[User talk:Botanist|''(talk)'']]</sub> 22:20, January 20, 2021 (EST) | |||

I, too, have a project proposal, which is to look through each and every [[Special:UnusedFiles|unused file]] and figure out what to do with them.
