Bulbapedia talk:Project Globe

Brazil

Hmm... maybe I could help making a page for Brazil. It is only the time to gather information and write it in a clear manner following the pattern on other's countries pages, isn't it? -- RikkiKitsune 02:22, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Talk to the project leader, electabuzzzz.--♫Green♫ギャラドス♫Talk♫ 02:32, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

That's mostly what rikkikitsune is doing. Every project leader watches their project talk page for every comment that happens. electabuzzzz will know ^Maverick_Nate 02:37, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Oh, well, even before the leader's answer, if anyone want to see, I've started something here. I'll improve it before in fact creating an article (obviously, if I get the permission for it). -- RikkiKitsune 03:32, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Absolutely. Articles that are on the list in the project's page are OK to create without prior approval, as long as they are good articles with actual content - no stubs allowed. I would suggest you take all the information from the Brazilian voice actors articles and add it to your example. When you're done, we'll move it to the mainspace. --electAbuzzzz 13:13, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

Shouldn't Pokémon in the US be in this project? Turtwig A Contributions Talk 13:19, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

We have yet to decide whether English-speaking countries need their own articles or not. We're still... debating on that. --electAbuzzzz 16:26, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

That's why I made a subpage of mine's for doing it. It will take some time to make a good page about Pokémon in Brazil. When it's done, I'll ask to mainspace it. ^^ -- RikkiKitsune 21:00, 27 September 2009 (UTC)

What about Pokémon in Japan? Turtwig A Contributions Talk 12:35, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

We have yet to reach a decision on that. On one hand, there's a chance it could be a very interesting article about the franchise in its origin country, and on the other hand, all the information we list on the other countries articles is already covered in every article we have in regards to Japan (try to follow that sentence). Then there's also the fact that we don't really have any active Japanese users (that I know of) who could write such an article, since they all use the Japanese websites and have no reason to visit English-language sites like Bulbapedia. --electAbuzzzz 13:19, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

Most of the information that could go into the article is already in the pages like Japan's release date for Red and Green is in the game infobox in that article. Turtwig A Contributions Talk 15:12, 3 October 2009 (UTC)

Pokémon in North America

Why aren't Canada and the USA both listed as potential articles? I have ideas of why and responses, but I guess I'll see if there's a real reason preventing their creation first. Porygon-Z 19:25, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

To be honest, we simply haven't decided yet whether there's a point to creating articles for English-speaking countries or not. You'll notice that the UK, Oz, and NZ aren't listed either. The current articles are made mostly of VA info, while English dub VAs already HAVE articles. Every article we have already contains info about Japanese and English releases and stuff. I'm not saying I'm 100% against these articles, just that I'm not sure yet. I talked about this subject with several other users in the past and heard many contradicting opinions. --electAbuzzzz 19:30, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

I think there must be for at least the USA, which is where practically everything happens to the English franchise. I bet me and ZestyCactus could add in a fair bit of things for a Canada article, too. Anyway, my position on articles is simply that there should be one for every country we are knowledgable about. Porygon-Z 19:34, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Oh, plus we've got French stuff. Porygon-Z 19:36, 16 October 2009 (UTC)

Right, Quebec. Alright, I suppose a Canada article might work, if it'll contain the Canadian French dub info. Start it in the userspace and then we'll see how it works, k? As for the US, I'm still not sure. The US info is on every single page. A US article would be very repetitive and kinda small. --electAbuzzzz 19:46, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
