Bulbapedia talk:Project Cities and Towns

Sevii Islands

Should we add the seven towns of the Sevii Islands as well, when we get this started? Tom Temprotran 05:10, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

I believe we should, to maintain consistency. --TMF ^{T - C} 20:20, 12 August 2006 (UTC)

All right. But will... the city be known as One Island or Knot Island? Maybe keep Knot Island as a descriptor page for all of the features of the island, and One Island as the city itself? Tom Temprotran 05:53, 13 August 2006 (UTC)

For the top bar of the template with the city's name...

I had an idea. Perhaps make it changeable per city, so that the background to the text is viridian for Viridian, celadon for Celadon, violet for Violet, and so on. Maybe for the cities and such without color names, we could somehow figure a color out? Like Lavaridge, I imagine, would be some sort of reddish-orange, or even a dark maroon, Mossdeep would be a greenish-blue, and Pallet would be that same silvery-grey it was if you played Yellow on a GBC. Check out the list of colors on Wikipedia, I think it'll end up being a nice, aesthetic addition.

...sheesh. Staying up until about 4AM gives me too many crazy ideas. And even then, I can still spell aesthetic right. I should... quit for the night. Eh. Ah well. I'll be working on those route overworld maps tomorrow, and then when I finish Kanto, Johto, Hoenn, and Sevii, I'll go on ahead and update the maps for the cities.

I don't see a problem with this - it would be easy to implement, too. Though I would ask that if this does get implemented, color pickers make their choices in good style and taste - for example, don't even suggest FF00FF as a title color. And remember, Bulbapedia's general style is with pastels... --Pie 08:51, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, since that'd be magenta. Same for the other compliments of red, green, and blue, they're a bit on the so-bright-it's-annoying side. I'd say for Fuschia, we'd have to use the darker one, F400A1, instead of the webcolor version. Looks better, anyway. Tom Temprotran 17:15, 25 August 2006 (UTC)

Infobox

I'm going to tweak the appearance of the infobox a bit to resemble that of Bulbapedia:Project Locations and Bulbapedia:Project Routes. I don't have anything major planned; mostly just the widening of the box to 300px and the standardization of the font size. As always, comments are welcome. --TMF ^{T - C} 04:44, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

Maps

The maps that we have for all of the Kanto cities are starting to show their age, IMO. With the new maps being created for all of the routes, I don't think it'd be too difficult to make new maps for the cities as well. --TMF ^{T - C} 18:25, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

New Member

Hi, i want to contribute with this project, mostly with the anime sub-section, so i wanna join :D, i don't know what more to say than that xD. --Bono 21:01, 23 March 2007 (UTC)

So do I. Can I?--FWANG! 22:19, 24 February 2009 (UTC)

A Suggestion

I've noticed that the articles for cities and towns seem to lack a screenshot of how that particular town/city is depicted in the anime. I apologize if this has already been suggested, but I think that at least one screenshot could really add something to the articles, since even when you play the games, it's a tad hard to visualize how the cities actually would look like, for those like me who haven't seen a good chunk of the anime.

Thanks for your time! :) - unsigned comment from Sui Kune (talk • contribs)

Well, in the future, I recommend signing comments you make using the four-tilde method (~~~~), but getting away from that... Yes, that would be a good idea. Don't know if it'd fit on the infobox, but separate, for sure. --TTEchidna 04:34, 19 May 2007 (UTC)

Joining

May I please join this project, mostly with the games section. I can get everything you need. So please let me join. PC_GEEK

Should the Orange Islands be a part of this project if the Sevii Islands are? I've been trying to get those pages to have some substance and consistency. --Greengiant 19:53, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

Orre?

As the scope is right now, it's fuzzy regarding Orre – the scope covers "every city and town that has been featured in the Pokémon games" yet it doesn't mention Orre in the list of regions after that sentence. I assume this is just an oversight (maybe my own, I don't remember if I wrote the page or not way back when), since Orre's cities/towns easily fit the project's guidelines (see the recently cleaned-up Phenac City).

In any event, whether they fall under the scope or not, those who are better than myself at picking colors for the infobox may want to adjust those that I've initially put for Phenac and, eventually, the other four cities and towns in the region. --TMF ^{Let's Go Mets - Stats} 03:26, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

Poké Mart stock lists

I've created a template for the Poké Mart stock list here. I've included a short tutorial there on how to use it. I've noticed a lot of Cities and Towns are missing stock lists so I'll be going round fixing that too. The template is based on one switch, which is different from most other templates which require several children templates, thus this one doesn't need separate templates for header/class/items etc. Feel free to start using it. Suggestions/comments/ideas, just post on the talk page.     -–<×vVvv_v τ^λικ _to ς1^tHςι_4γ3r ^^vVv×>–- 05:29, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

I'll help. I'll start with Hoenn, but I don't have direct access to the game right now so I'm only restricted to the information that's already there. It's a start, though. - espeonA 05:31, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Sweet. It's definitely a start.     -–<×vVvv_v τ^λικ _to ς1^tHςι_4γ3r ^^vVv×>–- 05:35, 8 January 2009 (UTC)
