@CJC, I'm still having a little trouble following you there. Are you talking about listing "Star Wars" as an entire theme under 1999 because the theme was introduced in 1999? I get that, if that's what you mean, but what I thought we were talking about was making a listing of themes per year but then listing the specific sets released per theme per year. Like these new sets that are coming out in 2013, why would we want to put them under 1999 themes, they're themes that were released in 2012.. So I don't know if I'm getting what you guys are saying.. Sorry :( |

+ | :He's saying that we currently have [[Star Wars]] in the "Themes introduced in 1999" category, but was considering changing the categories' names from things like "Themes introduced in..." to "... themes". However, as Star Wars has ''continued'' into 2012, he was worried that such a change of categories could lead to some accidentally adding Star Wars, for example, to the category meant for themes introduced in 2012 because of the ambiguous name of "2012 themes". Does this help? {{User:BrickfilmNut/sig}} |

Revision as of 02:07, 27 December 2012
Now, obviously this diagram is not complete, still a WIP, and makes no sense to most of you, so I'll bullet point my thoughts:
So I propose the following:
We currently put minifigures and stuff into "<theme> minifigures" and "Minifigures introduced in <year>" - Why not do the same for sets? It makes the categories tidier, separates sets from other general articles such as sub-themes or what not, and also allows more in depth. - E.g., 2011 books, Star Wars merchandise. This would also help separate actual sets from other crap.
Mainly, turn "Parts introduced in <year>" to "<year> parts". It makes it easier to use/add and goes along with my proposal to change sets to "<year> sets" and "<theme> sets".
To Ninjago! Well, Category:Ninjago. Go look at it. It is a mix of sets, lists, articles, merchandise, clothes and books. Surely, it would be better to seperate this up to aide navigation. Creating categories Ninjago sets, Ninjago books, Ninjago merchandise and Ninjago clothing (well, those last two could be merged) would allow the main category to just be the main lists (and some online games). Also, separate categories for books by theme would unclutter the book category. Basicly, this would be a lot of work and would probably take up to the next Christmas to be done. But, it would really sort this place out, because since 2007, our category policy hasn't really existed. Any good database needs a good organization on categories.

The wording may imply that things like Star Wars should also be in it, is my slight worry. ~ CJC 13:40, December 24, 2012 (UTC)
The question about moving "Themes introduced in 2012" to "2012 themes" is fine with me! Can you explain what the second part of the question means though. What do you mean you'd be worried Star Wars would be included? Are we not going to include Star Wars sets and figures in this rearrangement process? Or do you mean you're afraid the Star Wars sets would be combined with other sets.. Cause in that case I agree with you there.. I think the "2012 themes" should also be arrange by the LEGO themes. Have all Star Wars then all Harry Potter, etc and not have one giant list with Star Wars, Harry Potter, AND Ninjago intermixed. I feel doing one list per year with every type of set intermixed would just be harder to navigate for people who are interested in only one theme, like me :) VadersTraders (talk) 03:36, December 25, 2012 (UTC)VadersTraders

PartsOkay, currently every part ends up in Category:Parts. Can we not split them into things such as Minifigure accessories or minifigures heads or something. ~ CJC 13:28, December 26, 2012 (UTC) |
