I think that this should be merged to the other Cellphone article which goes into more detail, but only for Kirby & the Amazing Mirror.--Static 12:08, 10 September 2010 (CDT)
- Agreed. I can't think of a valid reason why anyone would disagree with merging two articles that are obviously on the same thing with a different spelling, so anyone who wants to may feel free to merge these two. The final article should end up here, though, rather than at Cellphone; "Cell Phone" is the official spelling seen in the manual of Kirby & the Amazing Mirror.--Vellidragon 13:20, 10 September 2010 (CDT)
- Moved it since there was clearly no reason in the world to not do so, and for the reasoning above. —Austin (NIWA Operative) 18:12, 10 September 2010 (CDT)
Stub?[edit]
Do you think that it should still be defined as a stub? How much info can you have about a small object to not consider it a stub? After adding the cell phone's appearance from other games, do you think that the stub template should be removed? --Static 00:25, 11 September 2010 (CDT)
- At the moment, it's just above what is known as a "perfect stub", in that it's got a fair amount of info, but needs just a little more (other game info) to have any tags removed. I'd say you could call it "under construction" until the N64 and KSS info is expanded upon. Moydow 06:57, 11 September 2010 (CDT)
- Opinions are likely to differ on this, but I've never liked stub templates on long and detailed articles that are just missing some specific information. A lot of other wikis have an "expansion" template that is used in these cases, while "stub" is used for articles that really do nothing more than provide a brief outline of the subject. I don't think such a template exists here, though, so in absence of that, Template:Construction seems the most fitting to me atm. Of course, once the missing information has been added, this wouldn't need a template at all anymore; an article can only be expand-worthy if it can actually be expanded.--Vellidragon 09:03, 11 September 2010 (CDT)
- Template:Construction is the best fit for this simply because it tags the article as above stub, but lower than a "good article." To be honest, I was thinking of removing the stub tags but forgot that template (construction) existed. —Austin (NIWA Operative) 11:36, 11 September 2010 (CDT)
