Bulbapedia talk:Project Merchandise

Proposal

I realise this project is highly inactive, and I personally don't have the knowledge to advance it BUT it would make sense to rebrand it as "Project Merchandise" because some stuff is out on a limb here. Are there going to be any overwhelming "no"'s? Or perhaps you have a better idea. I want to hear it. —darklordtrom 20:53, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

I was sorta thinking the same thing the other day. Not quite all of the random merchandise is quite considered "toys"... like the board games 'n' stuff. I'm not on this project either (:P) but I would support a name change. ZestyCactus 21:06, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

Well, this is more inactive than the Project itself. Let's just get on with it.

Oh, and this is going to incorporate the wannabe-Project Books. So all you bibliophiles get on over here ;) —darklordtrom 21:41, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Just wondering, are stubs supposed to get the Project Merchandise notice? Turtwig A Contributions Talk 21:51, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Yeah. They're still articles under the Project. —darklordtrom 22:04, 26 October 2009 (UTC)

Pokémon Champion Island

Is there any need for an article on the Pokémon Champion Island Board Game?--♫Green♫ギャラドス♫Talk♫ 03:03, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Of course. Check we don't have it first; there are a few articles on board games already but I'm not sure if we have that specific one. —darklordtrom 03:06, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

I couldn't find anything on it...--♫Green♫ギャラドス♫Talk♫ 03:08, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Go for it then. —darklordtrom 03:35, 27 October 2009 (UTC)

Books

Should appearances in books like Talent Showdown and Race to Danger be included in the Pokémon's pages. I'm asking this because Gary had a Blastoise, Charizard, and Venusaur in Talent Showdown which was well before The Ties That Bind. Turtwig A Contributions Talk 00:58, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

That might be worth a trivia note. Like "In the chapter book Race to Danger, an original story based on the anime, Gary was shown as having a Venusaur etc" ZestyCactus 01:01, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

If I remember correctly, he also had a Rhydon, an Exeggutor, and an Alakazam.-- Iron ICE (User:Cold)^{(page, talk)} 01:01, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

We could just put on the Talent Showdown article and the Race to Danger article. Turtwig A Contributions Talk 01:12, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

To-do list

Is it okay if I merge the two to-do lists together into "Bulbapedia:Project Merchandise/to-do list" so things that fall under this project that aren't toys or books can be included? Turtwig A (talk | contribs) 13:13, 9 November 2009 (UTC)

I have (or have available to me) several Pokémon Reader books. They are small, big-colorful-picture-laden books that are not quite chapter books and are published by Scholastic and adapted by Tracey West. As far as I know of, there are not articles for them or even a list of their titles. Should one be made or is there a list provided that I may have missed? Additionally, I am aware that my 'signature' or similar concept is in incorrect formatting. User: Steph, November 16
