Didn't think it was intentional sorry.  I'm a collector and I'm unenthusiastic about it.  They should be in a separate category as it breaks up the flow of the numbered promos, no doubt a few people like it but it makes the page look very unprofessional.
It makes the list more difficult to read, especially if you are attempting to look for any new numbered promos that have not been added yet.  Also how will you handle numbered promos that come out chronologically after a later number such as 014 and 015 xy-p?  Either they will be added chronologically and be out of order numerically (?!?), or any unnumbered promos after them will automatically be out of chronological order.
That will look especially weird in the case of promos like Battle Fiesta where there are two numbered and several unnumbered.  Would you split them apart and have part of the battle fiesta listed earlier and part later despite that they came out at the same time?
I appreciate trying to do something new that people have requested but I don't think it makes sense based on the above points, and also the fact that it would cause a large inconsistency of formatting across the promo section.

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules:

  • Be nice to everyone. It's in the code of conduct.
  • Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around.
  • Use wikicode and link templates when adding content to a page.
  • Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the manual of style.
  • You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the userspace policy.
  • Use talk pages to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page.
  • If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our FAQ. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The staff won't bite.
  • Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment.
  • For more handy links, see the welcome portal.
Thank you, and have a good time editing here!

BW-P Promos

Do you have image confirmation of these three promotional cards? It is rather obvious they are at those numbers, we just need actual confirmation rather than assumption, and as I cannot find any images online, I'm just required to check. MaverickNate 20:05, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Yea, I do, I was just about to add them. Also I'm completely new to this so I'd appreciate help. Here are the links: 216 BW-P: http://img17.shop-pro.jp/PA01151/595/product/57334605.jpg?20130415172821 217 BW-P: http://img17.shop-pro.jp/PA01151/595/product/57334624.jpg?20130415172937 218 BW-P: http://img17.shop-pro.jp/PA01151/595/product/57334649.jpg?20130415173019 Narcotichobo (talk) 20:10, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Okay, okay! Wonderful! We won't actually need the images uploaded here, since we (currently) only add additional images based on different artworks, and all of these artworks have already been released somehow before. I just needed these for their Japanese attack names and whatnot. Thank you for the links! I'll be able to take it from here.
If you are interested, I have an extensive list of things that we'd like to see happen in the TCG section, so if anything catches your eye, get a hold of me and I'd be able to help you get started with that. These are what I'd be able to help you with. MaverickNate 20:21, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

XY-P Promos

We're actually trying something new here, and collectors have been extremely responsive to it. They enjoy having the unnumbered promos chronologically in the list in between the numbers where they fall. This will be in addition to them being listed on the Unnumbered Promotional cards page. Just thought you should know that the ordering is intentional. MaverickNate 08:11, 12 January 2014 (UTC)

Didn't think it was intentional sorry. I'm a collector and I'm unenthusiastic about it. They should be in a separate category as it breaks up the flow of the numbered promos, no doubt a few people like it but it makes the page look very unprofessional.

It makes the list more difficult to read, especially if you are attempting to look for any new numbered promos that have not been added yet.
