Look's like Xerces was able to convert the set region inputs to be handled more generically, allowing for arbitrary inputs. Is that a satisfactory solution here, or does this need more discussion / review?

:Well if there's no good standard identifier that will work in all cases then it seemed like it should just take anything. From that you could still add back in checks using regex later if you wanted. Though right now it has no limit on how many codes it can take and they're ordered horizontally, so the codes may look squished if there's more than 3 or 4. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 10:32, 3 January 2018 (CET) | |||

If you want to turn gecko codes into a template (not a bad idea), it might be good if you're going to try and integrate quality checks to hook it into [[Template:Problems/GC Widescreen Auto]] and [[Template:Problems/GC Widescreen 16-9]]. If the game supports 16:9 already but also has widescreen codes for whatever reason, then the template should generate flags to show that the widescreen gecko codes aren't needed. That would give the template tangible benefits rather than just style compared to the current way of doing it. I don't know how to handle that with Wii though, but I don't really know how widespread the creation/desire for widescreen Wii codes is when most games already support it (I think?). - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 04:17, 30 December 2017 (CET) | If you want to turn gecko codes into a template (not a bad idea), it might be good if you're going to try and integrate quality checks to hook it into [[Template:Problems/GC Widescreen Auto]] and [[Template:Problems/GC Widescreen 16-9]].

:Good idea, if this new template is going to make it to game pages then we can add additional qualility checks regarding games that already support widescreen. We may like another category for whether it's used in Wii game pages.
