I agree with Axem. There's no point in adding unlicensed products to this template. Only the official and important items should be included. [[User:The Prince of Darkness|The Prince]] ([[User talk:The Prince of Darkness|talk]]) 17:02, 21 March 2008 (UTC) |

The Bootleg?
Really? The bootleg? I don't know, it's neat and all, but I really don't think a bootleg should be included in this template, listed along with official games in the series, no matter how impressive it is. There are thousands of unlicensed products based on the Final Fantasy series, ranging from dinky rom hacks and doujinshi to action figures and posters, and I really don't think that this deserves to be included, anymore than say, the episode of Robot Chicken with the spoof that has the cast working in a fast food joint.
At most, I'd think the small note in the Final Fantasy VII#Legacy section should be enough. WtW-Suzaku (talk) 12:38, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- There may be "thousands of unlicensed products" based on FF, but this one is the only notable one, along with Voice of the Lifestream. It was recently nominated for deletion and Delete was not the result of the discussion. The article exists, so it's included in the template. Nowhere in the template is it implied or claimed that it's an official product. FightingStreet (talk) 13:08, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
- I'm going to side with WtW on this one. The scope of this template is "FFVII", not "FFVII and unlicensed media". If it were, the latter, then VotL would be included as well, making it needlessly cluttered. Axem Titanium (talk) 15:37, 21 March 2008 (UTC)
