2015 Character Animations

They're basically a subset of the 2015 Online Animations, so they should be folded in there somehow. My general thought was to split the info between the episode list and the page itself. Wouldn't be all that functionally different, and might make the appearances list a bit easier. -- Dorek Talk External Image 06:54, 6 August 2015 (CEST)

So this is more or less what I was thinking; since these animations are all of the same origin, we do away with the distinction altogether and just lump them all under "animations". The risk is that if next year they continue doing animations, but in a completely different style, with a new company, and with new intent, basically. -- Dorek Talk External Image 19:33, 7 August 2015 (CEST)

Well, that doesn't look so bad. I'll change my vote. --Angel Bob (talk) 06:35, 8 August 2015 (CEST)

Heat | 22:26, 3 March 2016 (CET)

I think this page is pretty pointless. By comparison, not everyone with Psionics has Telekinesis, and plenty of beings who have Telepathy have no other psionic powers, so those pages make some sense. Not all Air users have Vacuum, and vice-versa. Literally EVERYONE who has Fire has heat, and only a handful of beings have heat without fire; a small enough number to maybe fit under the trivia section or something. It's unnecessary and confusing. -- Great Jala Cthulhu fhtagn

EDIT: Better idea still - just list the heat users under Fire. We list Telekinesis users under Psionics, so why not? -- Toa Jala Converse 08:30, 11 May 2016 (CET)

Keep

  2. Keep, because the Vacuum sub-power (Every air-user has this power) has page with less information than the Heat has. -- Surel-Nuva (Talk) 16:52, 17 April 2016 (CET)

I don't see a reason for this to have a page all on its own - besides the lava eels, nobody has non-fire heat powers. I think the difference between heat and some of the psionics subpowers is that there are other objects, such as kanohi, that grant those powers on their own. Nothing besides the elemental power of fire allows someone to have heat powers. (besides heat vision, but that already has a page. ditto for the lava eels.) Intelligence4 (talk) 07:55, 14 April 2016 (CET)

Exactly! There are a handful of characters with heat powers, though. There are actually five characters/creatures who have non-fire heat powers. It'd be incredibly easy to make into a trivia section. Just add this:
*Beings such as Tyrant and Firedracax, as well as Rahi including Lava Eels, Hoto, and one of the First Rahi have heat-based powers. However, they cannot control fire.
That little bullet point just covered the entire Heat page. The only remaining issue is Krahka, who shapeshifted into a Lava Eel and used its heat power, but she's on the Fire page anyway, since she took Vakama's form as well. This page serves no purpose and makes Fire more complicated than it needs to be. -- Toa Jala Converse 06:56, 16 April 2016 (CET)
^Basically.
On another note, do hoto bugs even have heat powers, or is it more a result of their physiology? (like is it a "superpower" that they possess, or do their bodies just produce a lot of heat, similar to a (very) warm blooded animal in the real world? (don't answer that here, wrong place for that discussion...)) (The preceding unsigned comment was made by Intelligence4)
The difference between heat and vacuum is that we had a character who specifically had vacuum powers without having air powers, and we know it was indeed an actual "power". Intelligence4 (talk) 19:04, 18 April 2016 (CET)

On the other hand, not all beings with Air have Vacuum (for example: Rahkshi of Cyclone, Air Burnak). That's where I personally see a difference. -- Toa Jala Converse 02:50, 19 April 2016 (CET)

But the Hoto Bugs and the Lava Eels cannot control fire, but they have heat-based powers :) -- Surel-Nuva (Talk) 19:14, 30 April 2016 (CET)
There are so few cases of them though, and we're not even sure that the hoto bugs have fire "powers" per se. With powers like vaccuum, there are enough storyline instances of it to warrant it having its own page, but with heat, we can just transfer all that information to the fire page and reduce some clutter. What are the rules for how long a discussion goes on before a final decision is made? Intelligence4 (talk) 07:17, 1 May 2016 (CET)
I don't think there is a time limit. If a motion gains a certain number of votes (I think the number is 8 now), or if it has little or no opposition, it gets passed. I'm pretty sure it'll just stay up for as long as it needs to. -- Toa Jala Converse 01:16, 5 May 2016 (CET)
Technically there is one, but I'm way too lazy to enforce it. If it takes forever I'll probably remove it, but it's fine to stay up for a while. -- Dorek Talk External Image 01:24, 5 May 2016 (CET)

Vahki Tools

I was looking at the pages for each of the Vahki, and noticed that their tools had their own pages - Staff of Loyalty is a good example. I think the info on each of the tools pages is short enough that we could move it to a section of the appropriate vahki pages - i.e. the staff of loyalty would be on the Bordakh page. What do you guys think? Intelligence4 (talk) 08:45, 29 May 2016 (CET)

Keep

  1. 'Cause we have more information about these than Bitil's Longswords. --Surel-Nuva (Talk) 08:53, 29 May 2016 (CET)
  2. We have pages for Onua's and Nuparu's claws. We have to list everything. -- Toa Jala Converse 09:05, 29 May 2016 (CET)

  1. Before I go posting deletion notifications on the Vahki Staff pages (as protocol dictates), I need to know if a) this counts as a group nomination, which are against the rules, and b) this doesn't violate our format. -- Toa Jala Converse 09:05, 29 May 2016 (CET)
