Talk:Makuta
Weird idea, does anybody think icons would be cool to add to these pages? Obviously the text descriptions need a slight sprucing up, but maybe including just a small picture of the character (cropped or otherwise) would be helpful for people trying to figure out which one they're looking for. -- Dorek Talk

- Ooh, I liiike it! In retrospect, the disambig pages have always seemed to be rather... lackluster. --Angel Bob (talk) 22:15, 9 December 2014 (CET)
- I was thinking of doing set images where possible, but yeah, that's the idea! Looks pretty great to me (I had always envisioned it right-aligned, but that's just me being pedantic :U). I wouldn't say do it for every disambig (and there will be a lot of "no image" ones to boot), but for G1/G2 disambigs especially, I think it'll be useful. -- Dorek Talk 05:32, 10 December 2014 (CET)

Set images where applicable would be more universally recognized, so that seems like a sensible choice. It doesn't seem like a bad idea in general.
It would of course be easier to limit it to just the G1/G2 splits, but would it really be that difficult to use for every disambiguation? The only one that would really have an issue that I can think of off the top of my head would be Artakha. --~|RC|~ (Talk/Contribs)
- True, since we tend not to do disambigs much in general here (opting for the "youmay" template nine times out of ten) so I wouldn't mind the odd one here or there.
- But yeah, especially for the G1/G2 splits, I think set images would allow for some more consistency and recognizability. Should we crop them? I feel like perfectly square icons might be more helpful, so you can have a larger image with more detail (for Pohatu, I imagine his upper torso across all the images for some reason). -- Dorek Talk 18:00, 10 December 2014 (CET)
