Category talk:Viva Piñata episodes with Gameplay Tips
Useful page?
As has been mentioned on the forum, we don't seem to be getting many useful tips from the TV shows. Out of 14 episodes so far, 2 or 3 told us something about the gameplay that we didn't know. I'm not sure if the category idea is useful, but lets discuss what to do about it:
- We could keep the category, and add a link to it from the Category:Gameplay Tips page. I'd say that most of the episode tips would need to be cleaned up, though. Things like "Whirlms like eating dirt" or "There might be a dance-off contest" would be a bit of a let-down, if someone was following these links, and hoped to find some useful information.
- Keep the category. Also note the tip details on the appropriate Gameplay Tip reference pages. (This is what we've already been doing. For example, attraction and "morphing" tips get included in the Attracting new species page.)
- Roll back the category references. While it's a legitimate category, is it useful to have a separate page for it?

Idea for new suggestions
It's a lot of work to have to go through after the fact and revert things, if we decide that something isn't a good idea. While most edits are useful, I think it would be helpful to possibly discuss certain things, such as new categories, in advance of them being created. Having a "Suggestions" page to propose changes like this might be a good idea. It would also be a good place for the general public to offer ideas on how the wiki could be more useful. (Another approach would be a new sub-forum at CandyMan's site, but I think that might muddy the waters a little.) --FeralKitty 23:23, 15 October 2006 (EDT)
