Thematic replacement

[edit]
Hello, I am querying the source for the statement about Monkie Kid being a thematic replacement for Ninjago. It would be helpful to provide a reliable source as I am unable to find a reference. It is not clear if this has been publicly stated as fact or is just opinion. If it is unsourced, it should be removed. Thanks Fieryninja (talk) 23:11, 23 November 2020 (UTC)[reply]
I forgot to tell you @Fieryninja last year I found 2 videos in YouTube talks about Monkie Kid replace Ninjago ([[1]] and [[2]]) but I don't think it's true. Striker2020 (talk) 07:00, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Striker2020 these are people's opinions on YouTube not proven facts. We know Monkie Kid isn't a replacement for Ninjago, because Monkie Kid was developed to target buyers in China. Ninjago has continued for over ten years as a successful evergreen brand, so Monkie Kid is not currently a replacement for Ninjago. Fieryninja (talk) 07:08, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Question

[edit]

Hello, @Jkmartindale are you sure that you are doing the right way to fix my page and I thought the sets suppose to be written in paragraph just like the example from Lego Star Wars and Lego Toy Story? Striker2020 (talk) 05:48, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

To be honest I have no idea about the paragraph formatting. I'm very unfamiliar with WikiProject Lego and was just trying to make the article more readable. I'll ask on the project talk page and see if I can get more feedback there. Thanks for being a good sport! jkmartindale (talk) 18:54, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Alright and I will wait for the answer. Striker2020 (talk) 05:04, 19 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
...no, you didn't. I give up, clearly you are not going to stop reverting my edits and I am not interested in an edit war. jkmartindale (talk) 05:21, 1 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Lego Monkie Kid (TV series)

[edit]

Hello, @Fieryninja can you please tell me where can I find source page about the air date of Lego Monkie Kid in Australia? Striker2020 (talk) 06:44, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Striker2020 I can only find a reference here [3] but you may want to look for a better media source. Fieryninja (talk) 06:49, 29 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Construction sets

[edit]

@Fieryninja I found this editor rewrite the Contruction sets section all the sets in table form I'm not quite sure whether the editor is doing right or not? Striker2020 (talk) 05:41, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Striker2020, NitroPowerbank here. I organised the information into tables as they are much tidier and easier for others to consume as compared to chunks of paragraphs. The WikiProject Lego also states that descriptions of subtheme should go at the top of each section, with a table listing the sets following that, similar to tables found in other Lego theme articles such as Architecture, Lego Harry Potter, and Lego Minifigures. Hope that makes things clearer. NitroPowerbank (talk) 05:59, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi NitroPowerbank thanks for your contribution to this page. Although this does indeed look like a much tidier way to present the information, we are trying to get away from lists of Lego set numbers like this for the following reasons. The purpose of this page is to report on the history and development of the theme, not to list every product like a catalogue (see WP:NOTDIR). The tables of sets are simply unencyclopedic, because it just looks like a list of products. I hope that makes sense. For this reason I would like to revert back to the paragraph format. Fieryninja (talk) 06:03, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Fieryninja. I understand your concerns that the article may end up looking like a catalogue. However, if we are going to revert back to the old format, I do not see a difference as the information stated is completely the same. Furthermore, the article may end up looking too bulky in the long run when more sets are introduced down the road. Hope you see my point here. NitroPowerbank (talk) 06:08, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
NitroPowerbank Personally I don't think we should be listing set numbers at all. If you look at Lego Friends for example, there is purposefully little content about the sets themselves. The products are only mentioned if they are particularly significant. There are other pages that list the products in table format but I don't believe that they are right to do so. The set numbers on this page should be removed and the content should really focus on development and other information rather than the sets. This will become even more important if the product line continues to grow. Fieryninja (talk) 06:17, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fieryninja Agreed that set numbers could be removed. What would you say if we remove the set numbers and remarks from the tables before listing the set names out in bullet points as a form of compromisation and to keep the page tidy? NitroPowerbank (talk) 06:21, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
NitroPowerbank Well my only concern is that the sets are not particularly notable in themselves. Whether you list them in table format or as a bulleted list, if we include lists of sets, it will just keep growing. Can you imagine the length of the lists if this theme continues for the next ten years? :) The sets only really need to be mentioned briefly as part of the waves released as a point of historical context. Really I think it's the text that needs to be edited down. Fieryninja (talk) 06:36, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fieryninja I understand and fully agree that only notable sets should be mentioned on the page. The Lego Friends page is a great example. Would it be alright if we mention only one or two sets in the paragraph as an example like what you have mentioned as a point of historical context rather than fully reverting back to the old format where every single set is mentioned in a paragraph? NitroPowerbank (talk) 06:40, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
NitroPowerbank Yes I totally agree with you and I'm glad we can reach this compromise. Please feel free to edit the page as you stated. I suggest referring to the sources to identify which sets to include. Thanks for discussing. Fieryninja (talk) 06:46, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fieryninja Thank you for this discussion. I will proceed to make the amendments to what we have agreed on. Also, I noticed the use of many references for just a single set, which is not really necessary in my opinion. May I suggest I leave only one to two references? NitroPowerbank (talk) 06:49, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
NitroPowerbank Yes that was another task that has previously been highlighted on other Lego pages. I brought this issue up with Striker2020 not long ago who agreed to reduce the excessive citations on another page, so we need to do this here as well. Some of the citations may not support the content and some may be just product animation videos, so if you do have time, I would suggest checking them to see which ones are actually supporting the text. Thanks for your help. Fieryninja (talk) 06:55, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fieryninja No worries. I'll proceed to do the agreed amendments and check on the citations as well. NitroPowerbank (talk) 06:56, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
NitroPowerbank Thanks for restore my page back to normal. Striker2020 (talk) 14:31, 18 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi Striker2020. It has been agreed upon with Fieryninja yesterday that only one to two sets rather than all released sets will be mentioned to prevent the page from being too wordy and to avoid it being similar to a catalogue in the long run. May I know the reason behind your recent edits to the page, reverting back to the very first format? NitroPowerbank (talk) 07:10, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Hi NitroPowerbank. I thought it better to mentioned all the sets just like the example from The Lego Ninjago Movie (Lego theme). If you're not agree with it and I will revert it back. Striker2020 (talk) 07:27, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Striker2020 Understood on your rationale behind this. However, since it was agreed upon yesterday, it would be better to leave it as it is. I have done a manual revert on your first revision, no worries. NitroPowerbank (talk) 07:30, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
It's ok NitroPowerbank. Striker2020 (talk) 07:31, 19 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Vandalism

[edit]

Fieryninja I need your help my page had been mess up by vandalism. How do I request a Semi-protection with indefinite? Striker2020 (talk) 06:02, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Striker2020 If you mean the last three edits, they don't look like vandalism to me, but I don't know enough about Monkie Kid. If you disagree with the edits you can just manually delete them in one edit and explain why you disagree. I don't think you will be able to get protection for this page unless you can show persistent vandalism. Fieryninja (talk) 06:06, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Fieryninja I thought they are vandalism because the ClueBot NG mentioned it. Striker2020 (talk) 07:14, 21 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]
