==Naming Conventions== | |||
On naming conventions: Sounds pretty good to me. So the articles on the final bosses of ''Dragon Quest V'' and ''Dragon Quest VI'' would be listed under '''Mirudraas''' and '''Deathmore''' respectively? (Since their names were first localized in ''Dragon Warrior Monsters''.) I ask because both bosses are conspicuously absent from the [[list of articles to create]]. --[[User:NecroMalroth|NecroMalroth]] 10:07, 27 December 2007 (EST) | On naming conventions: Sounds pretty good to me.

::I agree with Melios, but considering this conversation is about 3 years old, we will have to revisit all the policies and make sure they are up to date and make sense. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 10:02, 18 October 2010 (CDT) | ::I agree with Melios, but considering this conversation is about 3 years old, we will have to revisit all the policies and make sure they are up to date and make sense. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 10:02, 18 October 2010 (CDT) | ||
:::We had a discussion at [[Dragon's Den]] concerening Spell Article names, which resulted in a [[List of DQDE Policies|policy]] that was developed. Currently, the article for Nimzo doesn't exist, but the one for [[Desutamuua|Mortamor]] does (with redirects from [[Mortamor]], [[Deathmore]], and [[Deathtamoor]]). I think any new policy for Character Article names, or weapons, armor, items, game titles, should be discussed both here and at least at the Dragon's Den message board before it is decided and implemented.

I didn't add them yet since they have been called different names by different fans, the same with Granvania, Glanvania, Granbania and a few others. But yes, those names would be appropriate. --[[User:Zenithian|Zenithian]] 10:13, 28 December 2007 (EST) | I didn't add them yet since they have been called different names by different fans, the same with Granvania, Glanvania, Granbania and a few others.

Pages with all of the various names (monsters, items, characters, etc.) can be created (ie. a page for Herb, Medical Herb, and Medicinal Herb), but the main "Herb" page would have all of the info, and "Medical Herb" and "Medicinal Herb" would redirect to the "Herb" page, or the "Loto" and "Roto" pages would redirect to the "Erdrick" page, etc. Redirects are very easy to create, and by having redirects for all numerous names for the same thing, people will be able to go directly to the page they want, if they type something in the search box and hit the "Go" button. | Pages with all of the various names (monsters, items, characters, etc.) can be created (ie. a page for Herb, Medical Herb, and Medicinal Herb), but the main "Herb" page would have all of the info, and "Medical Herb" and "Medicinal Herb" would redirect to the "Herb" page, or the "Loto" and "Roto" pages would redirect to the "Erdrick" page, etc. Redirects are very easy to create, and by having redirects for all numerous names for the same thing, people will be able to go directly to the page they want, if they type something in the search box and hit the "Go" button. | ||
