::::::I guess we gotta have fifth column for those? It could be the "Special releases" along with NTSC and PAL, but is it okay that they don't fall under actually appropriate region, only there?

::::::: I guess that adds a 4th column you hadn't planned for, but should likely be OK.

Maybe do the four lockout regions with your tab layout design, and once you click into the tabs then all the codes for that regional lockout are shown? I don't really like having the ID pasted in with the code because the code box styling lends itself to copy/paste, and there's not a reason to copy/paste over the name of the game in that format. | |||
Let's not get too carried away here either, it's about a) making it as easy as possible for site visitors to figure out what codes will work for their games, and b) making it as easy as possible for editors to add new codes. I thought a) and b) could be solved at once with IDs because IDs are easy to find from within Dolphin itself, follow general patterns, we can do some funky stuff with DPLs with how our IDs work and access them anywhere, there seemed to be a lot of fun potential there (like comparing the IDs of the codes with the ID redirects we have on the wiki, and detecting mismatches). But Melee kinda stomped on that. I still think IDs are probably both the most practical and the least vague identifier of all. If you want to get kind of mean you could just say screw it and make code submitters calculate their md5 and copy paste it in with their code, then there would be zero ambiguity. But that seems kind of rude/distrusting and not very visually appealing. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 12:37, 4 January 2018 (CET) | |||
