TALK -
Here's some things I could really use some help on, and I've been unable to get it so far, so I wanted to just put out a list and see if I could get any takers.
  • Improving the infoboxes: The infobox coding needs to be cleaned up to make it easier for new editors to use, and should include all relevant information - the Boss template includes weaknesses, for example, and so perhaps the Heartless and Nobody templates should as well. Also, there should be inherent functionality such as automatic categories to make sorting the articles easier. It would be quite nice if a discussion on this could be started, or if people could look at the draft using tabs that I placed on wikimon. Personally, I'd really like it if other editors could work with me and tell me what wasn't working with my coding instead of erasing all my work without giving me any kind of explanation on what needed fixing.
  • Grouping Heartless: In a VFD a while back, it was decided to group same-type Heartless in one page like the Digimon Wiki does. Is this still the decision?
  • Card game: We need articles on the card game. I have most of the card scans, but I don't know what the exact terms are for the card game, and don't want to go through the work (requesting a Card: namespace, for example) needed if it will all need to be redone when I get the official terms. If anyone has ever bought KH cards and has a manual, I could really use your help.
  • Translation and Nihongo: Heartless, Nobodies, and weapons need to have the Japanese version of their names. In most cases, I have access to the kana, and can translate it, but it would help if there was someone who could work with me, so we could check each other's work. Also, There are quite a few objects (such as Final Mix Journal entries or Final Mix weapon descriptions), that I can't find on the Internet so far.
  • Music and merch: We need to start having articles on the music and merch of the KH series - at least, the official music and merch. The music can be done like this or this and work well. The merch can be done as it is here, I think.
  • Category for Deletion: Honestly, the admins need to be monitoring this better. We have too much crap articles, like the Metallica videos uploaded a few weeks ago, that are marked for deletion and then never touched.
  • Enemy Cards: there is now an infobox for enemy cards that can be added to every CoM Heartless' page. Here.
  • Category Redundancy: Many infoboxes or templates could inherently code to place pages they are used on in appropriate categories, and many pages are either missing all appropriate categories, or in some cases have the categories coded in twice. I'd like to add the coding to the templates to allow auto-categorizing, and I could use help cleaning up redundant categories throughout the wiki.
  • Weapons and Equipment: Kingdom Key and Ultima Weapon are about the only good equipment articles we have on this wiki. We need to have a push to add the infoboxes to the various pages, add in the appearance and stats sections to most pages. We should also be adding the navigation boxes seen at the bottom of Kingdom Key to most equipment articles to allow ease of access.

Again, it would be incredibly helpful if anyone would like to work with me on these, because right now I'm pretty much stuck on most of these, either having my work reverted, or lacking access to the information I need to fill the articles.
