Ideas and questions

Ideas / random thoughts (please challenge if they're dumb):

  1. Some of the translations are just weird, or do not seem to be translations at all (but fan designators??). I have no idea about that, so I'm just gonna go with CycloneGU mostly, much like you did.
    1. For Electric Selfdestruct Deck, see User talk:Nescientist#TCG2 Deck Names
  2. I just "verified" the translations you asked for, many of which are old articles. They've all been at least "okay". (I was basically being very lenient, as above, cause I believe moving those should have a better reason than slightly more accurate translation.)
  3. If an article exists on the Japanese wiki (or any partner wiki), an interwiki link should be added (even if the page is to be moved)
  4. I think it should always be in the opening paragraph who plays this and how the deck is available (it's too important for trivia imo)
  5. Decks should be linked to in every article they're mentioned (which should always be at least one article)
  6. Ideally, GR1 deck articles should also have the Japanese name in the lead
  7. It's helpful how you're using edit summaries for transparency; anyway, you can actually use [[ ]] links in edit summaries (rather than URLs)

Questions:

  1. What's your plan for the Auto Deck Machine article? (Me: Sooner rather than later?)
  2. You proposed several decks for moving, apparently because of User:CycloneGU/Sandbox. For example, the Japanese name for Electric Fire Deck literally reads "Electric Fire Deck", so why should they be moved elsewhere? Am I missing something? Should they really be moved (in your opinion)? (May the Auto Deck Machine 1 translations just be rubbish?)

I'll be doing interwikis right now, and maybe some optimization (e.g. moving stuff out of trivia) if I find something along the way. Nescientist (talk) 14:06, 5 January 2020 (UTC)
