Infoboxes
Please produce a draft of how this conversion would work within our sandbox, based on our primary infoboxes:
 * http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Episode
 * http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Digimon_Infobox

It is definitely true that a significant portion of our infobox coding is not recognized by mobile browsers (background color, moz-radius, table-collapses, etc.), but I'm having trouble seeing where that code is controlled on the help page. Can you please demonstrate that the new coding will enable our infoboxes to display as intended? (Personally, I can't stand going to any wikia site using a mobile browser, the whole process of editing is frustrating as hell, so I inevitably enable desktop mode and monobook skin.) Of significant importance to us is, if we implement these changes, will they be reversible in the event that our community dislikes them?

FYI, I had to delete the image you uploaded because it violated our wiki's image policies. Can you link it from wikia central or imageshack instead? 00:39, July 25, 2015 (UTC)
 * Okay, I tried to delete the image, but neither I nor one of the other admins can get it to take. Can you please address this bug? 18:00, July 25, 2015 (UTC)
 * Template:Digimon Infobox and Template:Episode are our two most-used and most-complex infoboxes. DigimonWiki:Sandbox is the sandbox space; if you need, DigimonWiki:Sandbox/Digimon Infobox and DigimonWiki:Sandbox/Episode are also fair game. 18:47, July 27, 2015 (UTC)

Discussion
What in the hell?


 * "This would require some active supervision by moderators, but that's not much different than monitoring article edits."
 * I never saw any of these show up in the recent changes. Why was this implemented in a manner such that it was invisible to the staff and directly detrimental to the sense of community that Fandom claimed it was going to create?
 * Also, on that note, who changed our name to "The Digimon Database"? 18:39, February 21, 2018 (UTC)
 * That was me, I thought the name was fitting. Chimera-gui (talk) 19:31, February 21, 2018 (UTC)
 * I think we may have a bit of a conflict with Digimon Encyclopedia and DMA with that name, but okay, that's better than having it foisted on us. 22:05, February 21, 2018 (UTC)
 * We can discuss a better name for the wiki on Facebook tonight then. Chimera-gui (talk) 22:50, February 21, 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm more wondering why Discussions was implemented in a way that made the rest of the community invisible to them. I've never seen these people editing articles, they don't appear to be aware of the Recent Changes or Main Pages, and they seem to use the Discussions more as a place to chat about Digimon as a product rather than about the wiki. It seems incredibly detrimental to the sense of community. 20:28, April 10, 2018 (UTC)
 * "App users don't have the option to edit articles at all and often don't realize they're looking at user-created pages that they could contribute to (via a browser). "...isn't that the entire point of the project? Why was the Discussions feature designed in a way that it added separation between readers and the main purpose of the project? 02:16, April 11, 2018 (UTC)
 * Okay, that being the case, it seems clear that at the current time, the discussions feature is hurting our project and isolating our readers from contributing. I'll let the other members chime in, but I am personally asking that it be removed until the severe bugs have been worked out. 20:26, April 11, 2018 (UTC)
 * I'm confused, I guess. Why is it that the Discussions users are saying they can't find Talk pages, can't see mod activity, and aren't aware of the recent changes? 13:17, April 13, 2018 (UTC)
 * I did. That's in the links I sent you above. The Discussions users don't even seem to be aware that we have Talk pages, or mods. 13:57, April 16, 2018 (UTC)


 * "and at worst, Discussions becomes a platform for negativity and misinformation that could reflect back negatively on the wiki. "

 * http://digimon.wikia.com/d/p/3100000000000000078
 * Can you at least make it so that discussions edits show up in a log in the recent changes? 16:35, May 25, 2018 (UTC)

Videos
http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Gallantmon

I'm seeing a video on that page that shouldn't be there. It's not showing up in the edit text for us to be able to remove it. This is a very bizarre bug. Can you please get it fixed? 13:54, May 25, 2018 (UTC)


 * http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Yggdrasill

Seeing it here too. It's looking like these are wikia-sponsored, which is bizarre since there doesn't appear to be a way for the community itself to correct them, they certainly weren't made with our approval, and they are so chock-ful of errors that it's hard to believe that anyone involved with the fandom made them. These need to be removed immediately. 15:09, May 25, 2018 (UTC)

http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Ordinemon

Sweet Christmas, how are they mispronouncing things so badly. It's "gato" as in the spanish word, not "ghetto". And where are they crediting the footage, which is absolutely not fair use, since by default of what it's showing, it has to be taken from pirated video somewhere? 15:14, May 25, 2018 (UTC)

http://digimon.wikia.com/wiki/Seraphimon

Okay, this one seems like it's just reading off of the state of the article when it was written, which is understandable. Except that it has no understanding of context, so it starts reading off a description for a specific Seraphimon character as if it was talking about the species, all the while showing footage of a very different Seraphimon character from another series.

These videos are massively destructive to the wiki's reputation and accuracy. This is a direct impediment to the core goal of the project, which is to provide accurate, informative, and well-organized content to the readers, and allow the readers to contribute corrections -- instead, it looks like we've been forced to display videos that massively distort the layout of the page, are riddled with errors, and so far as I can find, have no method for readers to report, much less revise, these errors. 15:21, May 25, 2018 (UTC)
