Category talk:Canon Techniques With Non-Canon Names

Keep
The pages listed are not Canon Techniques With Non-Canon Names, so this category should not exist, in my opinion. At best, Sulong and the two fruits are canon abilities with canon techniques that have non-canon names. The Abilities category shows us devil fruits and fighting styles, which within them will have specific techniques. Yoru and Kogatana are never techniques, the user has techniques that involve them.

 * 1) This category could just be renamed.
 * 2) It lists pages that have techniques from the manga listed under non-canon names.

How can we overlook that there are more than just five pages with non-canon named techniques when there's no section to separate canon techniques? Rgilbert27 (talk) 12:16, August 26, 2020 (UTC)

How would you rename it? "Abilities and Weapons with Canon Techniques with Non-Canon Names"? Or "Abilities and Weapons with Non-Canon Named Canon Techniques"? StoopidGuy (talk) 12:39, August 26, 2020 (UTC)

Also, there must be characters with canon techniques with non-canon names, so would it be "Pages with Canon Techniques with Non-Canon Names"? StoopidGuy (talk) 12:43, August 26, 2020 (UTC)


 * 1) At least one user is open to renaming but we need a less redundant name.
 * 2) We don't know of any characters, if any, with non-canon named techniques on their page so for now it's just abilities and weapons.

What we can agree on is the number of canon techniques with non-canon names, seen or mentioned here, will continue to grow. Rgilbert27 (talk) 13:09, August 26, 2020 (UTC)

I agree that the name is sorta misleading. And I can't think of another alternative. I's not like we have pages for techniques. And techniques are a widespread thing found in DFs, weapons and fighting styles.

I question the necessity of one category such as this. It's not like we have a category for pages who happen to have non-canon sections in their histories. KingCannon (talk) 13:13, August 26, 2020 (UTC)

I still don't see the value of this category. It doesn't tell anything that is really worth being under "Abilities", as far as I'm understanding the intent. StoopidGuy (talk) 13:23, August 26, 2020 (UTC)

Total nonsense category that should not exist in any capacity. 13:50, August 26, 2020 (UTC)

There are no sections between canon techniques and canon techniques with non-canon names, that's the problem. The intent is that a number of non-canon named nouns go unnoticed on this wikia and a list of them would help should the day come when the canonical name is out. It's not nonsense.

1. Categories must accurately fit the entire page they go on, not just one section. We wouldn't put the Cities category on an island page with a section about a city.

2. Not everything needs a category. As far as I'm aware, non-canon names of canon techniques have their sources noted in the technique description, which makes it very clear that it was named in a video game/anime episode/etc. It is typically difficult to overlook when a technique name appears in the manga, and simple critical thinking makes it clear what name applies if there is any discrepancy.
