On the Move Set template, why not just bold STAB moves, and italicize broken moves, or something like that? I think it has more visual impact. Of course, you should still explain what the formatting means... --Jinji, The Human Gengar (talk|contribs) 02:47, 14 November 2010 (GMT)

American vs UK spelling
Looking at the recent changes you've made, I can see that you greatly prefer the wiki using the spelling common in the UK. I'm just going to let you know now, if you refer to the American spelling (e.g. color) as misspellings, then I'll probably be making a lot of spelling mistakes when it comes to the slight differences in the spelling of words between the two regions.

- Actually, those changes were incidential, and not the spelling mistakes I was referring to at all.
- However, that reminds me of something. The matter of keeping language consistent over PWO media went to staff discussion a while ago and became a topic of discussion on the forums, and it was generally agreed that European spellings of words should be used in almost all cases. If this is going to cause trouble, then I suggest this is discussed with the Wiki editors. --Jinji, The Human Gengar (talk|contribs) 14:49, 18 November 2010 (GMT)
- I actually discussed this with Lee last night. According to him, we'll be using the European spelling on the wiki articles. Still, I might make a few mistakes just based on the differences in conventions, which don't easily appear to me while editing. Anyways, I was skimming through the edits and it just seemed to me that quite a few of the edits were changes between alternate spellings, so I figured I would raise the point. At least now we have a clear direction on what to do with the differences in conventional spelling. Tenfold 03:50, 19 November 2010 (GMT)
- Sweet, thanks for informing me of that! And hey, don't worry, we all make mistakes. That's why it's good we're all working together. And feel free to raise any more points you may have :) --Jinji, The Human Gengar (talk|contribs) 10:25, 19 November 2010 (GMT)
