Talk:Grouping

This page
It's very um...unofficial. There has been some minor feedback on the forums regarding "well what is a set?" but not much progress on what we should DO about it. So I'm just gonna put my foot down based on what I've seen so far so we can start walking. I wouldn't be opposed to merging "family" into "collection," but I feel that the difference is...distinct enough.-Novaster 04:00, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
- Yep, fused them. -Novaster 19:41, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
- Unfused - I think it's finally worked out. There's too many items and too much opinion! -Novaster 21:09, 25 March 2015 (UTC)
Terminology and sincere organization effort
Moved "Collection" to "Grouping" because "grouping" is an even looser term, freeing up "collection" for specifics. "Collection" is one of those "hot" words that is used in advertising, so it's fitting for promotions (collect them all! Gotta catch 'em all!). Now this "Grouping" page will explain the varieties of groupings. In addition, a subpage system that is managed in Category:Groupings will keep track of these groupings while not confusing each grouping with wayward colloquial terms. --Novaster 15:04, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
- Yay, now we can categorize subpages as needed, and the pages are not cemented into any of the wayward colloquial terms, so nobody is confused. They are all just groupings with different flavors (flavors being categorization instead of page names). --Novaster 21:00, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
Infobox
Because set information is so hard to define outside of common naming convention/stats, after a long time of thought, I think it might be best to always include this sort of information in notes. Infobox should be reserved for short absolutes. I would discuss this in template talk, but there are several infoboxes involved, so this seems the best place without necromancing forum threads people might not see ever. --Novaster 19:23, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
- I say the sets/collections should be moved out of the infobox (there aren't that many of them to begin with) and moved to the notes section.--Altmetal 19:31, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
- Oh boi more work. But this is never not the case. Double negatives. --Novaster 19:35, 3 March 2016 (UTC)
