* Please put universion things on the main Page. But I also think that we should use Olimar isntead of 'you' or 'player'. Unlike Knights of the Old Republic, you have a name, and its 'Olimar'. | * Please put universion things on the main Page. But I also think that we should use Olimar isntead of 'you' or 'player'.

== Naming of Pikmin (game) and Pikmin (species) == | == Naming of Pikmin (game) and Pikmin (species) == | ||
Although Pikmin 1 is not the official title of the game, I believe for the sake of disambiguation between categories and articles its an acceptable alternative name and should be used as the article title, (although the intro would state the official title as Pikmin). Currently linking to Pikmin (game) is confusing for new users and laborious compared to using Pikmin 1. Category naming also presents a problem of consistency, currently we have a category named [[:Category:Pikmin 1 Ship Parts]], from that title its obvious its about ship parts in the first game, however if we used the official title: Pikmin Ship Parts, are we now talking about parts of a spaceship belonging to the Pikmin? Using the current disambiguated name "Pikmin (game) Ship Parts" is very ugly for a title | Although Pikmin 1 is not the official title of the game, I believe for the sake of disambiguation between categories and articles its an acceptable alternative name and should be used as the article title, (although the intro would state the official title as Pikmin).

I would also like to move the Pikmin (species) article to Pikmin as they are essentially what this is all about! the current disambiguation article located there is small and can easily become a small disambiguation at the top of the Pikmin (species) article like many articles on wikipedia use. So in summary I'd like to see. | I would also like to move the Pikmin (species) article to Pikmin as they are essentially what this is all about! the current disambiguation article located there is small and can easily become a small disambiguation at the top of the Pikmin (species) article like many articles on wikipedia use.

The community is welcome to pick out a user or two who they feel is active, fits the above description and understands the information above about what it means to be an admin, and whom the community feels they can trust. If there is no user who completely fits that, the community is also free to see if there are any general Wikia users such as me who have admin experience elsewhere who could come and watch over the wiki. We could even be given Bureaucrat to promote any user who appears to have grown enough to fit in as an admin. ~ '''NOTASTAFF''' | The community is welcome to pick out a user or two who they feel is active, fits the above description and understands the information above about what it means to be an admin, and whom the community feels they can trust.

:Just to note... Sannse just gave me Sysop so I could change the Sitenotice and one or two other things to draw attention to the wiki needing admins.

Well, in the end, I think Greenpickle has more 'Wiki know-how', and it shouldn't be neccesary to get admins from another Wiki to help here. But if Pikmin 3 comes to existance, then this site will expand, so some new admin would surely be helpful. -[[User:Prezintenden|<b><span style="color:Gray">Prezintenden</span></b>]]<sub>[[User talk:Prezintenden|<span style="color:Gray">(babble)</span>]]</sub> 17:00, 21 October 2007 (UTC) | Well, in the end, I think Greenpickle has more 'Wiki know-how', and it shouldn't be neccesary to get admins from another Wiki to help here.

I visit here most days as well, and am by nature a perfectionist, which'd help with keeping the place 'clean'. I'm guessing that WikiText would include more than just what's on the Wikipedia Cheatsheet; things that I've encountered, but would like more information on (is there a tutorial anywhere?).- [[User:Greenpickle|<b><span style="color:Green">Greenpickle</span></b>]]<sub>[[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:Green">(talk)</span>]]</sub> 07:42, 22 October 2007 (UTC) | I visit here most days as well, and am by nature a perfectionist, which'd help with keeping the place 'clean'.

As for this. What it looks like could be used in this case (where we have 3 or so normal users who are good as contributors, knowledgeable about the basics of WikiText, but would only work out as light admins [Basically ones who just work on deletions and such of spam and other things]) that what would be good for the wiki is someone with good leadership skills in the community as a bureaucrat. That way the bureaucrat could work on the deletions and stuff at the start, and watch the other users and how active they are and when perhaps someone else is needed for deletions, to promote the best user for the task to Sysop. | As for this.

If you guys have anyone who has good community leadership skills, they could adopt the wiki. Or I could if you want, I'm more of the leading and technical over content person, so as the wiki appears to have good contributors I'd be fine with adopting it if you can't find anyone real good with the kind of leadership and reasoning skills used normally on a wiki. ~ '''NOTASTAFF''' | If you guys have anyone who has good community leadership skills, they could adopt the wiki.
