Just a heads up that Darb has been uploading screenshots of Critterpedia entries that can be used as references. ~ Super  Hamster  Talk 23:00, March 22, 2020 (EDT)

Southern Hemisphere
Any thoughts on making this easier to read (and contribute to) for people in the S.H.? I was thinking either making a separate row in each month cell, or dividing the months in two so it's easier to offset the months by 6 at a glance. Sandsong (talk)
 * Hi Sandsong - I created a new template (Template:CritterMonths) that should hopefully make it easier for editors to add months and not have to mess with HTML. I've also updated the table with Southern Hemisphere availability. I just added another row to the same cell - it's not the best, but I guess it will do for now. I don't think we can add another column as the table would start getting way too wide. One option we're looking at is adding a tab extension that would let us have separate tabs for North and South. ~ Super  Hamster  Talk 04:19, April 2, 2020 (EDT)

Shadow Information
Do we want the shadow column to specify if you can see a fin on it? Or just strictly the size? Plant51 (talk) 01:33, April 5, 2020 (EDT)

Size and Tank columns
What will go here? Size as 1x1 or 2x1 and tank as the color, shape, or whether or not things can be placed on top of them? YanYanvvryy (talk) 17:36, May 10, 2020 (EDT)
 * Size is the measurement of the fish (which I don't believe is available in NH) and tank is the size when placed as furniture. See Fish/New Leaf for an example. ~  AlexBot2004  ( Talk ) 21:34, May 10, 2020 (EDT)
 * Should we change the size column to be tank style then, or include tank style under the tank size? Some people might want to know if the fish has a special type of tank, like how a goldfish goes into a ceramic bowl - Greensleeves22 (talk) 07:53, May 26, 2020 (EDT)
 * I guess what could be done would be having a column with the Template:Size and another column for tank icons from the game, yeah. I'd also put it in the order I wrote so it wouldn't have back to back fish images, personally. P aviinka Papa Bear WW.png (Message me!)  10:40, May 26, 2020 (EDT)
 * I have been collecting information on tank sizes and styles but can't edit the template for the column headers (Template:TableHeader) to change what is displayed, so I have only added the sizes I know for now and no style information. I also don't really know how to go about getting the images from in the game so if anyone can either help or point me in the right direction, I'd appreciate it!

 * There's the Data Spreadsheet that has all the images available - you could download the tank images from there. Looks like no tank images have been uploaded here yet, so if you're going to do it, name them like "Goldfish NH Tank.png". I'm planning to obtain the tanks from the older games and name them in this way + it's consistent with fish models. I think the template may be locked because there's database being prepared, but it shouldn't be a problem editing it, whenever someone with the access is free.

 * I've gone ahead and made the changes to the template, sorry it took me so long! Sunmarshsignature.png  ( talk )  17:20, June 8, 2020 (EDT)
