Regions
The handler that generates region categories needs to be updated to account for some of the recently added regions (Netherlands / Scandinavia, perhaps some others). I thought it may be in the Inforbox_VG template, but it's not; and I can't work out where it's located. Kolano (talk) 04:33, 12 June 2017 (CEST)
OK, it's in Vgrelease, and based around the indicated release dates. Should probably add an additional handler to Inforbox_VG to handle it for GameIDs. Kolano (talk) 08:40, 12 June 2017 (CEST)

Short GameID Clean-up
Here's a list of GameIDs without the PublisherID that may need to be cleaned up:
WiiWare:
System Channel:
Others:
Not really clear on folks opinions of the shortened GameIDs. Other outside sites seem to use them, but not clear they have much relevance to Dolphin which doesn't, so I'd lean to just purging them out (we need to check if the 6char GameIDs are present first though). Kolano (talk) 06:09, 8 January 2016 (CET)
Since it seems all VC titles on a platform tend to use the same publisher code (i.e. it's associated with the platform not the title) this is likely easier to address than it first seemed. In any case, we need to go through each of these and ensure a 6char GameID is established for each. Kolano (talk) 11:23, 9 January 2016 (CET)
- Technically, none of those are wrong! Anything from the wii shop doesn't include a publisher code, technically. But there *is* a separate publisher code, and Dolphin combines them. But the publisher code is based on the platform, not the actual publisher... There has been a lot of debate as to which method is correct. Come into the channel and talk it over with the devs! - MayImilae (talk) 23:50, 19 January 2016 (CET)
- I wasn't claiming them to be wrong, just pointless when it comes to Dolphin since Dolphin doesn't identify them by those IDs. Really I just want consistency one way or the other. So we either need to purge those out, or ensure a 4char ID is established across WiiWare/VC titles. Kolano (talk) 00:24, 20 January 2016 (CET)
