Forum:Game moves added

Okay got a bit of an issue, I JUST noticed that game moves are added to *some* pages.

Previously, this was not allowed because the names of moves in games were considered "untrustworthy". I'm bringing up the issu because I don't just want to remove them. Sadly, I'm not in the mood for heavy wiki editing due to personnel reasons. All I can say is the sudden introduction of them without discussion on if they should be allowed is noticed by me as a disappointing approach and should have been resolved first.

The main reason was the naming of moves in 4Kids related games brought into question how much trust we should put into the games names. There was at the best of times a strict impossiblitity to be able to research most of the game related names, unlike the manga and anime which were easy enough to decipher. Thus we didn't let video game moves enter the wikia to advoid having to deal with the problems related to being unable to reaserch it. Now things are changing and *some* games were easy enough to get hold of.

Anyway, I'll leave this to get some attention and let everyone discuss this. One-Winged Hawk 17:46, March 17, 2011 (UTC) Yeah, I was noticing that some random IPs started heavily editing the games. As I have nothing better to do but sit home with a broken foot I can take them out if there are no arguments towards keeping them? Pandawarrior 17:56, March 17, 2011 (UTC)

Some of them should be kept. I can think of at least two. They were also the two that started it. The first one is the attack by Akainu where his magma takes the shape of a dog. It was used in the manga but not named until it was used in a game. Another is one of Kizaru's attacks, which takes the shape of a yellow monkey, which completed the set for the admirals having moves related to their epithets. Akainu's should be kept, and probably Kizaru's too. I think the addition of game moves can be good, but they should have their own subsection under attacks to separate the in-story moves from the game moves. The subsection can be called other techniques, or game-only moves, or something like that. 19:05, March 17, 2011 (UTC)

Oh why not? Since we do have an "anime-only" section for attacks, why not a "video game-only" section? Yatanogarasu 19:40, March 18, 2011 (UTC)
