== | == Regions and Games == | ||
1. Should we add regional names to the [[Gamecube]] game list if there are differences? (English, Japanese, French...) | |||
: Generally yes, though we may want avoid doing so in the case of exact translations to avoid listing 5+ EU translations of each name. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 17:13, 8 August 2018 (CEST) | |||
:: Okay ([[User talk:Kimishima|talk]]) 19:28, 8 August 2018 (CEST) | |||
2. Should we all regional names to the wiki pages if there are differences? | |||
: | : Again, generally yes, but be cautious of listing exact translations. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 17:13, 8 August 2018 (CEST) | ||
:: | :: Alright ([[User talk:Kimishima|talk]]) 19:28, 8 August 2018 (CEST) | ||
3. Should we add regions like French (FR), Spanish(SP) etc. to the 'vgrelease' list for possible different release dates and country exclusive releases? | |||
: Generally we just list the earliest EU release date, but may want to consider listing more dates when there are differences. Would be good to understand how frequently such comes up. Such would also likely require rewriting how some of the vgrelease template logic works. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 17:13, 8 August 2018 (CEST) | |||
: | :: I will contact you when I have a complete list of dates. ([[User talk:Kimishima|talk]]) 19:28, 8 August 2018 (CEST) | ||
:: | :::It's really easy to add/remove regions from {{tl|vgrelease}} so I added SP/FR for you. It doesn't affect any current pages to add them either. You can see it in the infobox on [[Dummy Page]] if you want. We might also want to do a generic year (and month) under "EU" alongside those and NL with more regions but idk it seems kind of pointless. That requires knowing separate release dates for French and Spanish releases though and I think only GameTDB has dates for particular regions in Europe? GameFAQS just says EU as far as I remember. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 09:57, 11 August 2018 (CEST) | ||
::: | ::::Aren't there also German specific releases (and perhaps a few others)? [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 09:59, 11 August 2018 (CEST) | ||
:::: | :::::Yeah we could match the regions in [[GameIDs]] with the regions in vgrelease, but that would take a long time to sort through all the IDs again and I'm lazy. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 10:05, 11 August 2018 (CEST) | ||
:::::I added Germany, Italy, Scandinavia, and Taiwan/Hong Kong/Macau too. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 10:29, 11 August 2018 (CEST) | |||
::::: | :::::: Thank you for the effort! There are lots of old gaming magazines out there with release dates of the Gamecube era. I know some German websites I can search on. I can figure out other countries thanks to google translator. I figured some Korean and Japanese dates out with that method. One '2 in 1 Games' collection for the Gamecube is a German exclusive (The one with only one GID). [[User:Kimishima|Kimishima]] ([[User talk:Kimishima|talk]]) 15:49, 11 August 2018 (CEST) | ||
::::::: It should be possible to use some dpl rules to quickly generate lists of titles with region specific GameIDs (refer the "Samples" column on the GameIDs page), which should allow titles needing edits to be quickly identified; though finding all the appropriate dates may still be a pain. 18:00, 11 August 2018 (CEST) | |||

I have a small question. I saw you changed my GE edits to DE, which I am personally all for. Why do GE and DE redirect you to the German page? As on the [[Dummy Page]]. Seems funny to me. EDIT: DE made problems on [[2 Games in 1: The Incredibles / Finding Nemo]]: maximum number of loops has been performed. | |||
: Looks like I had missed a few GE references that needed to be revised to DE. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 00:37, 14 August 2018 (CEST) | |||

4. Should we alter the 'CompatListHeader' to include French (FR), Spanish (SP), Swedish (SW), Netherlandish (NE), Italian (IT) and German (GE)? | 4. Should we alter the 'CompatListHeader' to include French (FR), Spanish (SP), Swedish (SW), Netherlandish (NE), Italian (IT) and German (GE)? |
