This won't really become relevant until it, well, does, but it was regardless a tiny idea I had. When 2.8 is out (or before it even), we'll have to get around to creating the inevitable separate game entry pages for Back Cover and 0.2. Which is perfectly fine, except they're not ''really'' coming out like previous games did. They're original, brand new entries that are regardless part of an exclusive compilation. Hence when they go up, I think we should do two important tweaks to indicate: Add ''some'' kind of indicator to their front page icons that those games are a part of 2.8 - something like a tiny dream eater symbol on a bottom corner, or something. And second, slightly tweak the color of the infoboxes. I already played around with that a bit - just hit the sandbox to get an idea. And keep in mind, this is '''ONLY''' for Back Cover and 0.2 BBS. Now, there's still plenty of time until ''actual'' news starts trickling down - when we actually have to make entries for them. But until then, why not discuss? --[[User:Webber22|Webber22]] ([[User talk:Webber22|talk]]) 04:02, 15 May 2016 (UTC) | This won't really become relevant until it, well, does, but it was regardless a tiny idea I had.

This won't really become relevant until it, well, does, but it was regardless a tiny idea I had. When 2.8 is out (or before it even), we'll have to get around to creating the inevitable separate game entry pages for Back Cover and 0.2. Which is perfectly fine, except they're not really coming out like previous games did. They're original, brand new entries that are regardless part of an exclusive compilation. Hence when they go up, I think we should do two important tweaks to indicate: Add some kind of indicator to their front page icons that those games are a part of 2.8 - something like a tiny dream eater symbol on a bottom corner, or something. And second, slightly tweak the color of the infoboxes. I already played around with that a bit - just hit the sandbox to get an idea. And keep in mind, this is ONLY for Back Cover and 0.2 BBS. Now, there's still plenty of time until actual news starts trickling down - when we actually have to make entries for them. But until then, why not discuss? --Webber22 (talk) 04:02, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
- You're right, it's a somewhat confusing situation when separate entries of the series are not released separately. Since it's unknown how 2.8 FCP will work I think it could still technically be possible to release them digitally as separate entries later or also feature them in other collections (something like Kingdom Hearts III Final Mix+), so in the end it could become even more confusing. Adding a small secondary symbol/indicator to the game's icon is a good idea to illustrate dependencies but I think it will make our game symbol situation even worse since it brings yet another option to show the game entry's version to the table.
- Ideally we would only have one symbol for every game and some sort of smaller information that show in which game version you can specifically find this kind of content. For example: This element can be found in Back Cover that is part of FCP, or this element can be found in coded that is part of the original coded, re:coded but not HD 2.5 or this element can be found in CoM but only in the HD 1.5 release. --ShardofTruth 08:09, 15 May 2016 (UTC)
