Nookipedia talk:Project Items

Yeah, this project seems defunct. I don't want to leave it inside the navigational template if all it serves nowadays is a blast from the past. Same goes for every other project in that navigational template in this page. 22:59, June 25, 2014 (EDT)
 * Agreed. It is dead, and each furniture page does not deserve its own article, either, in my opinion. It may be a good idea to tag these pages with an 'archive' template and protect them. Red   Snapper  15:21, July 15, 2014 (EDT)
 * I agree, but if there's any interest to revive the project, let me know. Otherwise, this really isn't a "project" as it is a sort-of solo effort by me. 16:12, July 15, 2014 (EDT)


 * I would love to assist, Mario. However before we go about making updates I think there needs to be a big discussion about how to best organize the furniture on the wiki. I'm not sure if this talk page is the best place for that, so in an attempt to engage more users in the discussion I've created a post on the forums. If you're interested I encourage you to post your thoughts there. --sunmarsh (talk) 01:02, July 25, 2014 (EDT)
 * Thanks a lot, sunmarsh. I don't know how much traffic the forum gets, but it's worth a try. If there is further interest the revive the project, I will overhaul the page if I have time. 18:04, July 25, 2014 (EDT)

Would like to join the project
I figured I could just add myself, seeing that I'm a staff member, but I'll follow the procedure written on the page. --XXSuperXXNintendoXx (talk) 20:39, July 26, 2014 (EDT)
 * I'll add you in a moment. I just "borrowed" the staff cells because it looks better. 20:41, July 26, 2014 (EDT)

Request to join (sunmarsh) + questions
Thanks much for revamping this page, Mario. Just a few notes: In the 'Tables' subsection I think we should encourage the use of, , and. Additionally, we will need to create new sections and templates for AF, AF+ and AFe+ items on each series, theme, and set page. On the subject of tables, I think we should decide on rules for alignment. I am personally in favor of every cell being center aligned with the exception of the item name which should be left aligned. What do you guys think?

In regard to images, I know that some series pages have a gallery (usually of ACNL images). Do these images need to be removed and placed into the tables? Also, some of the pages have a picture of the entire series at the top (from ACCF)- do we want all pages to include this before we mark them as complete? And do we want to try and update that picture through ACNL (seeing as every existing series got an additional wall item)?. --sunmarsh (talk) 22:09, July 26, 2014 (EDT)
 * Ooo, I didn't know those item list templates are there. I'll add them if I'm not as busy as heck (and itching to play some computer games). Most subjects should be center-aligned anyway; the aligning of item prices to the right baffles me.


 * The gallery images should be incorporated into the tables. You don't even need an additional column; just add , the wikitml equivalent of the "Enter" key in typing, and add the image. The entire series on the top, I recommend to have, since it gives readers a good impression how the items look in-game. Nevertheless, these images are usually not counted as completion for an article because it doesn't single out each furniture item; it's just an overall presentation for the series, in my opinion. We can update the picture through screenshots of New Leaf, but actually *setting* up such images in-game takes a lot of time and devotion to the game, which is another reason those kinds of images are not required for completion.  22:15, July 26, 2014 (EDT)
 * P.S. Sorry for the delay, you are now part of Project Furniture! 01:57, July 27, 2014 (EDT)
