::I will say that the title "rookie Rescue Officer" does appear to be used officially in [[https://www.nintendo.com/en-gb/News/2023/August/A-day-in-the-life-of-a-Rescue-Corps-Officer-2416417.html  one article]], which also calls them "our rookie" for short. The alt-text for the [[https://pikmin.nintendo.com/ca/comics/#!/too-stuck-to-pluck  first comic]] seems to call them "Newbie Rescue Officer", before shortening it to just "a Rescue Officer" in all later text.

:::You're right. I didn't do enough research before claiming that about the "Rookie" option. [[User:CortexCPU242|CortexCPU242]] ([[User talk:CortexCPU242|talk]]) 05:30, July 9, 2024 (EDT)

::::Between the options of "Newbie Rescue Officer" and "Rookie Rescue Officer", which name would be better to use on the wiki? &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 21:29, November 29, 2024 (EST)
:Slight correction, the name on the comic's cast page is actually {{j|新米レスキュー|Shinmai Resukyū}}, not {{j|新人レスキュー|Shinjin Resukyū}}, meaning it is not short for the other name. Not that it changes much. [[User:2 B|2 B]] ([[User talk:2 B|talk]]) 11:17, July 8, 2024 (EDT)

::If we did rename the article to "Newbie Rescue Officer" or something like it, what other changes would need to be made around the wiki? A lot of things would need to be reworded. I think in situations where an article is describing things that can be done with the Newbie Rescue Officer and Oatchi, the name could be shortened to "Rescue Officer", because it would be clear what the name is referring to in this context. &mdash; [[User:Soprano|'''Soprano''']]<sub>[[User talk:Soprano|''(talk)'']]</sub> 20:55, July 8, 2024 (EDT)

:::That was discussed on the discord when someone had actually moved them to the leaders section of Category:Characters, which was reverted by Soprano. He ruled that the characters should be sorted by the roles that they'd be better recognized for. Since Collin and Shepherd are only playable in smaller side-modes, they'd be more recognizable as NPCs to the average joe trying to find characters. That's not to say I agree with that organization method, just that it was discussed briefly on the server. [[User:PopitTart|PopitTart]] ([[User talk:PopitTart|talk]]) 13:30, July 9, 2024 (EDT)
