Potential animation in between game footage
Game footage is likely not able to cover everything properly; perhaps an animation style could be added to elaborate on aspects, or clarifying stuff without direct in-game visibility. Opinions? FVbico (talk) 20:48, 22 December 2019 (UTC)
 * If you mean custom-made non-game animation over and/or in addition to game footage, then . Having no such animation is just an additional constraint; and generally, if you have any other constraints than producing good results, you will eventually be presented with a choice to either abandon that constraint, or produce an unacceptably poor result. --AttemptToCallNil (report bug, view backtrace) 02:13, 23 December 2019 (UTC)

Should english videos have the [EN] prefix?
Other language videos will have the language code in front of the video name to prevent confusion (all will be on the same channel), that was previously discussed with a rather clear consensus on discord; but what about english ones?

I personally think we should add them, even if no other language videos exist yet; just for clarity. FVbico (talk) 20:50, 22 December 2019 (UTC)

 * a lot of other wiki languages doesn't have enough people to create their own videos. So i think all videos could be on English and just translated with the subtitles. --dr03ramos Piston.gif (talk) Admin wiki[pt] 15:09, 9 March 2020 (UTC)

Dealing with outdated videos
How should we deal with old videos when new videos are uploaded showcasing updated mechanics? Should they be renamed and/or unlisted? Could they be added to a playlist of outdated videos if unlisted for them to remain easily accessible, while still being clearly marked? - User-12316399 (talk) 12:58, 19 March 2020 (UTC)
 * I think unlisting + playlist seems like the better idea. FVbico (talk) 17:05, 19 March 2020 (UTC)

Dedicated template for game versions
Currently these are just documented in the blue project thing, but I'm thinking that we could track the latest version these apply to via a separate template like Translated content applies to instead, which would also categorise them so we can see which scripts are up to date and which are not. - User-12316399 (talk) 22:03, 31 March 2020 (UTC)

Tutorial videos
I brought it up on the discord, but think it's best to also say it here.

I don't see the point in doing tutorial page videos. You can literally google it and find hundreds of videos covering the exact same thing already, and additionally, there's more important pages that need a video first. FVbico (talk) 20:34, 10 June 2020 (UTC)


 * Alright, I'll get rid of those scripts... I hadn't seen your message as I don't have access to that part of the discord yet.Travelbytrain (talk) 21:29, 13 June 2020 (UTC)
