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)

: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. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 03:29, 31 December 2017 (CET)

== Pagename Use ==
== Pagename Use ==
Sorry to jump on this so quickly, but we won't want to use the pagename template in this content. It will be likely to only align with the titles name in the NA region (or one other in our priority cascade). If we include titles the appropriate titles should be used.

:I understand it's terrible method when it comes to alternative titles the game has, still working on it... It's there so the GameID look good. It's inspired from GeckoCode.org [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 03:54, 4 January 2018 (CET)

== Template:Pre ==
Maybe we should make our own really basic copy of the Pre template? It seems like it would be nicer to work/more readable than the weird includeonlys inside pres randomly on the page, and the ability to have markup in pre tags could come up again. I don't see a reason why not. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 14:08, 6 January 2018 (CET)
