How's this? It could be used to synchronise projects across the wiki, and anyone coming here could find out what there is to do if we put a link to this in the sidebar (use Mediawiki:Sidebar) and Main Page somewhere. And I'm also thinking about vastly improving the Pikmin:Community Portal. GP

There is one more space left anyway, which would even make it look better. Would I be right if I said we merely have to add ** currentprojects-url|currentprojects? And what would you want to change on the Community Portal?--Prezintenden

Oops, didn't see your reply here before. No, you add the proper link with capitalisation and stuff as it's not built into MediaWiki as a codeword like the others are. I added it. And for the Community Portal, I think it needs colour and borders for sections like on other Wikia (pretty much all of them); not sure, it just seems lacking.
Much better or what? GP

Creature's Scientific Names Meanings

I disagree. Most words are invented. Plus, it's rather simple to guess the names, and it's odd to explain jokes such as violinae orchestrus. --Prezintenden

It's probably not worth translating every scientific name, but it might be worth noting for some of the less apparent ones, like Shiropedes ambulatria. I would guess that most of the Pikmin fanbase is fairly young and has little experience with foreign languages and Latin roots (seriously, who uses the word ambulate in day-to-day speech?). —Jimbo Jambo

We seriously need more things to put here. We're running out of projects! GP

I dunno if it's worth putting on the page, but a lot of the treasure and enemy notes have numerous tiny errors (most notably the capitalization of enemy names, but also small typos and slight differences in the phrasing of certain sentences). —Jimbo Jambo
That's just something for Template:Clean, really. And of course, there are stubs and short pages. They could all be added as a note at the bottom, I suppose, sort of an 'Ongoing Projects' section, but that's kind of what Template:Editing is for. GP
