. "It's clear for everyone to see that there has been a lot of disagreement on the Wiki recently and so I've set up this discussion to try and resolve the issues we're having so we can all move forward together, instead of arguing all the time. I hope that this discussion will lead to an agreement on how we are going to progress this Wiki in the future. 1. First, we need to have a discussion on which robots deserve their own articles as this is a major disagreement. I hope that every robot will eventually have its own article but there is a case that maybe we should prioritise the most notable ones first, before we move onto the minor competitors. Please give your opinions with reasoned arguments and hopefully we can get this resolved. 2. We also seem to have a disagreement over the house robot articles that were created by Toon Ganondorf. If you could please give your opinions on this too, then maybe we can decide what we are going to do to make sure that everyone is happy with these articles. 3. Another thing we have to start doing is think about categorising this Wiki. At the moment, no categories have been created and I think we should start creating some for easier navigation around the Wiki. I'm thinking of categories like 'Series 1 competitors', 'Series semi-finalists', 'World Championship competitors' that we can put at the bottom of certain pages to categorise the articles we have. I would welcome any suggestions for categories we should create. That's all I have right now but if there are any other issues you want to discuss and resolve, please do raise them here and we can discuss them. If we are going to resolve these disagreements we are all going to have to keep an open mind and be open to making compromises, as not everyone can have it the way they want it. That is the whole point of this discussion. Please join in the discussion and we can start moving on productively without disagreements and arguments, and we can make this Wiki a better source for information on all things Robot Wars. Christophee 14:01, 11 January 2009 (UTC) I have an idea. How about I change the articles on the house robots so that the format is similar to the competitor robots page. I have created a sandbox under my userpage for these purposes, allowing me to freely edit them. Is this acceptable? Toon Ganondorf (t c) OK, these are just my personal two cents on the matters. 1. I think we should take it in turns. If we look at the robots currently in the \"Competitor robots\" page, most of them have at least reached the semi-finals of the UK championships. I think that the Semi-Finalists should at least get their own article first. After all of them have been done, we can look into robots that have at least made the Heat Final and do articles for them. THEN we look at the \"other\" robots. It might be that only the most significant of these gets articles, but certainly those that have won or done well in a special event could at least get something (for example, Kan Opener has never won anything in the UK wars, but as being the winner of two consequtive annihilators, I don't see how it wouldn't get an article eventually). 2. The issue I have with the House Robot articles is that they're not consistant with what is given in the Competitor robot pages. If they were more like them, I think that would be OK. Obviously, we can't do battles, so perhaps most notable fights? 3. I think you've hit it right on the nose there. There's not much else I can say. Maybe we could also add \"Seeded robots\" to the list. That's just my thoughts on the matter. CBFan 21:17, 11 January 2009 (UTC) Okay, thanks for giving your opinions on the subject. I'll probably get started with the categories sometime tomorrow. Toon Ganondorf, do you agree with CBFan's idea about the robot articles? I think it's quite a good idea personally, and when we have finished all the semi-finalists you can bring back your Corkscrew and SMIDSY articles and we can move onto heat finalists. I think it would also be a good time to make a full list of every competitor robot from every series so that we have a page that links to all the new articles. I'll leave the house robot articles to you guys as I'm not really interested in editing those, but I do think that somebody should create an infobox for house robots that we can use on their articles to house all the stats. I'll be happy to create it if nobody else does. If you have any other suggestions, do keep them coming. Christophee 01:24, 12 January 2009 (UTC) I will take care of those House Robot articles. In addition, I would like to agree with everything, but would like to ask CBFan to stop being so impatient. If I make a mistake, correct it graciously, not snapping and being derisive and offensive. Toon Ganondorf (t c) 06:01, 12 January 2009 (UTC) First of all, I am not snapping, second of all, you shouldn't really NEED to be making mistakes...most of the mistakes you seem to be making are on Battle results, and the results of every single battle in Robot Wars history is on this very Wikia. CBFan 15:20, 12 January 2009 (UTC) The second thing is that I am actually copying from another robots page, say Hypno-Disc. Hypno-Disc lost in the first round of the semis, so the result is marked lost in S6. However, S3 makes it through so I add another sectino but forget to change the result. It's sloppy, but not stupidity. Toon Ganondorf (t c) Now, that's the thing. This is why I wrote all of the champions battle stats from scratch. It may seem time-consuming, but it'll help you in the long run. CBFan 23:12, 14 January 2009 (UTC)"@en .
