Forum:New Species Page Style

So, we're rolling out the new species page style but have hit a snag on the fact that we merge species based on two categories: Digimon who share the same name and familiars. Originally, I was going to stay familiars can stay, but I decided that gets complicated when you have modes/forms/etc. But the main concern I had is what happens with the ones who share the same name, like Agumon. I was hesitant because I liked the idea of having all the "Agumon" in one spot, making the lesser-known variations easier to find, especially when they're not covered by type/species like Greymon-species and the subspecies/variations tabs get labyrinthine. The "h1" experiment kind of soured me a little on keeping them all together.

So, I was wondering if using disambiguation pages would help keep the information together. Like how we have Digimon Adventure go the anime but have the disambig link on top, we could do the same for the species. I'm not saying we have to go all the way down to characters like bulbapedia does, but it'll be an easy place to shove all of the variants that aren't quite covered under subspecies.

Example: Agumon (disambiguation)

Agumon can refer to any of the following species:


 * Agumon
 * ExAgumon
 * BlackAgumon
 * Agumon (2006 anime)
 * BlackAgumon (2006 anime)
 * Agumon (Burst Mode)
 * Agumon Hakase
 * Agumon X

 * Totally on board with this. Should we also maybe make the "Species/Variants" more prominent, perhaps placing it directly under name row in the infobox? 13:11, August 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * I think Species/Variants is good where it is, trying to move it between name and either Japanese name or image would break the natural flow of the template. We can probably remove the Other Name variable as like with Samudramon we can cover other names in the etymology section. Does the mean pages like Cherubimon and Sistermon are going to be made into disambiguations? Chimera-gui (talk) 15:19, August 4, 2015 (UTC)
 * I agree that the subspecies section can probably be left as it; I'm not fond of the idea of moving the collapsible sections higher up. I'm not sure about removing the other names parameter entirely; it depends on exactly how many other names we get.


 * And to answer Chimera-gui, yes, pages like Chronomon, Antylamon, etc. would become disambiguation pages. Lanate (talk) 02:24, August 5, 2015 (UTC)
