Rare Wiki:Coverage
Hi there. I was looking onto this creation of articles, and our proposed idea on that in the policy. Super Mario Wiki already covers the Donkey Kong franchise, which includes its DKC series, and by our "Rare Wiki Network" take we're close-knit to the 3 wikis. What I mean, unless they offer more content than already conveniently covered on those (e.g. any Rare-specific media and does it warrant own article), it seems redundant to me. —Viperision (talk) 13:43, 5 June 2020 (UTC)

Also, appreciated creation of articles on the games. It's a common practice on encyclopedic wikis to avoid addressing players (readers) as "you", instead preferring third-person, so if it's the physical person use "player" or if the subject is a character, refer accordingly. On another note, for example Cows, this is actually a fairly coverable article about cows across all the Rare's games, including Rare Cow as Conker Wiki's article mentions. Please reply if you see these messages, thanks! :) —Viperision (talk) 19:39, 25 June 2020 (UTC)

Hey Viperision, I'm still new to a lot of this so there's still much I haven't figured out yet. Some of this will help out with that. As with the pages I've been working on, I was told that for most of the Wanted Pages that were for subjects covered in other wiki sites, I could just have them say "For more in-depth information, go to this other wiki" then provide a link to that respected page. If any new issues come up in what I'm doing, don't hesitate to let me know and give constructive feedback on how I can do better. Thank you. -Pnyaht78 (talk) 7:37, 26 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Also, do not remove any links to games on articles that are not Donkey Kong, Banjo-Kazooie, and Conker series-related. I'm mostly talking about Grabbed by the Ghoulies, which is an ongoing project where I'm planning to make the articles if/when applicable. Just remember that Rare Wiki is supposed to also cover Rare's smaller franchises. It was ok when you removed the links on the Spider-Man Game Boy page since it's a licensed game (and coverage could all fit on one page anyway), so yeah. Hope this makes sense, thank you for all your hard work! Results May Vary (talk) 12:09, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
 * Do not remove any links relating to Dinosaur Planet or Star Fox Adventures (except Star Fox elements such as Fox, Falco, Arwing, Andross, Slippy, and Peppy Hare). because I'm planning coverage for the former game (Lylat Wiki covers the released counterpart, SFA, while this wiki covers Dinosaur Planet.

 * There's this Template:Other wikis we can use to link the subject on those other wikis. Anyway like RMV says, I think it would generally be preferred that as much coverage for in-game content is fit into their own one or few pages (especially of those franchises we have affiliated wikis cover). Definite coverage include the real-world companies (and staff at Ultimate/Rare), their produced media which includes video games, franchises/series and their consoles (each listing the games on them). For licensed works likewise with affiliated wikis - as much coverage into their one or few pages, otherwise full coverage for Rare franchises (including in-game content) which do not (yet) have an affiliated wiki. Remember that you can draft articles on your own subpages (e.g.  User:Pnyaht78/Silent Service ) and when it is substantially covered for a start it can be moved into mainspace. It's generally not first goal to cover as many articles, but as much on them, and with keeping them redlinks (wanted pages) it's easier to follow-on which articles need to be made from ground up. —Viperision (talk) 12:42, 26 June 2020 (UTC)
