Shouldn't the Zelda Wiki link be called Zeldapedia
Title pretty much sums it up. It's also the only one to not have an icon by the name. I didn't know if there was a reason why it's like this. DaRootBeer1231 (talk) 04:33, 1 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Probably, I think the name only recently changed when they became independent again. Lyichir (talk) 14:15, 1 November 2022 (UTC)

Fuzzy Icon
We need the fuzzy ooze icon on the fuzzy ooze page. It's shown in-game Callie's dialog. PS. We need inkwheel pics on it's page. Kensa Octo brush (talk) 05:13, 1 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Is that during the tutorial?
 * if so i can go and find it later (althought it can probably be datamined/pulled out of the game files)
 * And ill add the ink wheel images when i have time, thanks for pointing this out! LakePuddle 🗩 🖉 16:08, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I cannot co firm the fuzzy ooze icon is in Callie's dialogue. Can you elaborate? Dabbing-ChromeWolf.jpg Chrome Wolf S3 Big Man Render.png (🎙, 🗂). 12:41, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Confirm* Dabbing-ChromeWolf.jpg Chrome Wolf S3 Big Man Render.png (🎙, 🗂). 12:41, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Discuss this on the fuzzy ooze page. The main page discusssion is not the right place for this. Cruelty to Salmons (talk) 15:57, 16 November 2022 (UTC)

Adding stages and Polls back
Are we going to bring back stages, polls, Splatnet 3 shop items, etc? I'm new to wikis so I'm not sure how to do this myself. Thoughts? Woomy? (talk)  23:04, 4 November 2022 (UTC)


 * You are allowed to start them if you'd like, but no one has motivation (especially for polls, Shahar had to pester people constantly to do those). Xandpochondria S3_Badge_Toni_Kensa_100.png 18:25, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
 * So how would we go about making a poll? Do we just go to the page, or do we have to do anything before? I would definitely like to make one, but I've never done one so if you could explain it I would be grateful! Stay fresh!
 * Frye 2D.png Clarinet.octo Marina 2D.png ( talk )Marie official artwork.png 20:36, 8 November 2022 (UTC)

I HAVE A THEORY
'''okay so im assuming we ALL know who deadf1sh is. this is about her song, 14- crush. in the song it sounds all happy and cheerful, right? well the song has noises from what im assuming are the octarian army. this might be what she remembers from before getting sanitized because the song right after that, 16- salty, sounds terrifying. it sounds like what you would assume being sanitized would sound like. this might be me coming to conclusions but still.''' Omoriboy.. (talk) 17:46, 9 November 2022 (UTC)


 * This isn't what this page is for. DaRootBeer1231 (talk) 17:58, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Hello! I'm sorry to be the one letting you know, but this talk page is for discussing improvements to the main page, such as fixing bugs or issues. Comments or observations like this should be reserved for your sandbox or your user page. This is a very cool theory though, and I love your name! Thank you! ArivakiVA S2_Gear_Headgear_Golden_Toothpick.png JPTGoldDynamoRoller.png 17:58, 9 November 2022 (UTC)
 * That sounds about right cuz Sanitization's basically like losing ur free will, so Dedf1sh must have gone through a lot of pain. The things that I'm thinking is that all the songs are from different parts of her life. the missing song numbers could of been left out cuz she can't remember what happend then. And that explains why 2 songs are missing after 14# Crush. That was when she got sanatized.
 * Just sayin' but this should be in your user/sandbox page. Cool theory, tho. :) Lil&#39; Octoling (talk) 11:46, 24 December 2022 (UTC)
 * Look at the top of the screen in Inkipedia. It says: No lore OR SPECULATION. Sorry, I just don't want you getting banned/reported. AbundantHero (or is he?) he is. (talk) 01:38, 8 April 2023 (UTC)

Countdown
you know how there was a countdown to the release of Splatoon 3 on the main page? what if we added a countdown to the splatfest part too? that way it'd be easier for people to know when it is without having to worry about all that time zone translation madness.

Adalent (talk) 00:19, 11 November 2022 (UTC)


 * While having a one-time zone countdown would be nice, there are so many different time zones and many people in different countries that having a single countdown would not work. Having "time zone translation madness" isn't the right way to put it since many people view Inkipedia from all around the globe, and therefore it would be necessary for everyone to have their time zone added. For example, say that for me it is 1:00 am and for you it is 3:00 pm. This means we are in different days and our countdown would not be the same. That's why time zones are so imperative to a countdown. One would simply not be sufficient. Sorry, I hope this helped! Have a nice day!
 * Frye 2D.png Clarinet.octo Marina 2D.png ( talk )Marie official artwork.png 00:33, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Also what do you mean by one Splatfest countdown? Viewing of the time can be seen when you go to the kiosk for your team. We did have a Splatfest countdown, but there were many time zones. Sorry about the repetitive responses!
 * Frye 2D.png Clarinet.octo Marina 2D.png ( talk )Marie official artwork.png 00:35, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Let's say we'd do one, it would be in the one time zone that all wikis use: UTC. The same thing was with the Splatoon 3 countdown- it used utc. If a person so desperately needs to know when a splatfest is, then they could look up the utc to their time zone, because they are online if they're even on the site. Xandpochondria S3_Badge_Toni_Kensa_100.png 00:53, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * That's a more clear summary of what I was trying to say. Thank you for clearing that part up! I think bringing back the Splatfest countdown would be a great idea! I have no experience with anything like that so someone with experience would most likely have a good shot at it. I still wouldn't want to put pressure on anyone to do it.
 * Frye 2D.png Clarinet.octo Marina 2D.png ( talk )Marie official artwork.png 01:50, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * But all regions are having the splatfest simultaneously, you'd only need one countdown timer
 * Adalent (talk) 03:54, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure that's true, though. My Splatfest time started two hours after the clock on the page. I'm sure we can just keep the Splatfest countdown as the date. I agree we should just wait and see.
 * Frye 2D.png Clarinet.octo Marina 2D.png ( talk )Marie official artwork.png 18:54, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
 * We wouldn't need a time zone, for example, the timer says "5 hours and 30 minutes left" that's not specific to any zone, but is universal to all. Wind Waker (talk) 17:57, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * And that's even if anyone is gonna check it. I'm not convinced we need a countdown. Xandpochondria S3_Badge_Toni_Kensa_100.png 18:35, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * I'd check it. I hate having to figure out when it is in my time zone, and apparently I'm not the only one. Wind Waker (talk) 20:18, 11 November 2022 (UTC)
 * lets maybe wait until next splatfest to set it up though, seeing as this one starts in 2 hours

Image problems
I am putting this here 'Cause I don't know where else to put it.

This is a problem. I'm am trying to get images to my Third Sandbox. Link:User:Splat.girl/Sandbox 3.If the problem that I'm having works here then that's a big problem cause when I do it on my Sandbox 3 it does not work. I can show an example here: I will be trying a pic of evil Callie and this is what happens: S2 evil callie.jpg. That's the code for it but when I put it my Sandbox (3) it only shows the code not the pic. Thank you. Splat.girl Splat.girl (talk) 13:42, 13 November 2022 (UTC)


 * Hello! Do you put [[File:S2 evil Callie.jpg]] Or do you leave the file part out? Putting it like how I showed would be the way it will come up. Can you describe the problem a little more? Also not sure if this is the right place to put this. Maybe the Inkipedia talk:Ink Pump.
 * Frye 2D.png Clarinet.octo Marina 2D.png ( talk )Marie official artwork.png 17:06, 13 November 2022 (UTC)

The news is weird
So the nes on the main page has announcements for the splatoon 3 direct and amino trailer… BUT NOT AN ANNOUNCEMENT FOR THE RELEASE OF SPLATOON 3?!? This is a serious oversight that MUST BE FIXED ASAP. Cruelty to Salmons (talk) 16:02, 14 November 2022 (UTC)


 * The release of Splatoon 3 was months ago, I agree that they should have put it on the page back then, but now that is in the past. 16:05, 14 November 2022 (UTC)
 * Pretty sure they did, but I could be wrong. :)
 * Frye 2D.png Clarinet.octo Marina 2D.png ( talk )Marie official artwork.png 18:35, 14 November 2022 (UTC)

maybe we could add a section for content creators? like ProChara and others? Bulbasaur24 (talk) 13:59, 17 November 2022 (UTC)


 * First, that isn't really what the wiki is about. It has to do with more of with in-game things and not people who play that game. There was a more fleshed-out response from an admin that was on here but I'm not sure where. Second, the Ink Pump is more of a place to put this, than here, as this is the spot to improve the main page. Xan S3_Badge_Toni_Kensa_100.png 14:06, 17 November 2022 (UTC)

Big run schedule template
I saw there was a Big run template for it's schedule, so I was wondering if we should put it in the main page yet. 16:52, 4 December 2022 (UTC)

Subtitle
"We have 2,803 articles since 24 May 2015 and you can help by editing them!"

Although the sentance above looks gramatically correct, I don't think it's the best mainpage subtitle possible. I propose something along the lines of

"Thank you for contributing towards our 2,803 articles since May 24, 2015!"

Thoughts? - Xan   02:11, 18 January 2023 (UTC)


 * Good idea!! I think something like "We have created 2,807 articles since May 24 2015, and you can help contribute to them!" sounds better. I feel saying the reader can help out encourages people who haven't edited yet to join our team. Saying thanks is sweet, though.  18:32, 23 January 2023 (UTC)

Japanese
Idea: for Japanese speaker: we should make a new language of this in Japanese I could help since I know Japanese pretty well 𝚂𝚑𝚒𝚟𝚎𝚛𝟷𝟶𝟷 00:13, 7 February 2023 (UTC)

Do you mean that we make this page (or a copy) in a Japanese version? It does seem fitting as Nintendo is more or less a Japan originated franchise, but making that would most likely be a lot bigger than a few people knowing basic Japanese. Maybe this would be a good idea to utilize your Sandbox? I would love to help out with this idea if it does ever become a reality.

Salmon run: next wave schedule bug (within Main Page/S3) - does not show Big Runs, might break during the Big Run
(yes, I know, Main Page/Big Run does show the upcoming Big Run so this is a bit of a moot point, but documenting this bug anyway in case it causes issues during the Big Run) Anyway, as mentioned in the title, the automated Salmon Run: Next Wave schedule thing within Main Page/S3 does not appear to show Big Runs. It shows the current rotation, and the rotation that'll be up after the Big Run, but not the Big Run.

Seeing as that element in that page is an element, and idk where the source code for it actually is so I can't take a look around it for myself, it might be worth taking a look at it to fix the bug if you do know where the code for it actually is. 12:06, 2 March 2023 (UTC)

Eggsta Work on MP
Would EW be main-page worthy? I was thinking of some ideas if it was.

3) Do nothing (If it's not noteworthy)

Thoughts?

 * Just put it in the salmon run page .job done. Octogamingpro (talk) 13:02, 7 April 2023 (UTC)

 * Hi, please remove that thing you did with the Octoball just now. It's very unnecessary and takes up a lot of space on this talk page. 13:15, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * uh how? Also it was an accident.so sry Octogamingpro (talk) 17:12, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * I removed it. Don't worry. 17:13, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Thank you Octogamingpro (talk) 17:17, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Thanks all for your thoughts. There is now a Main Page/Special Event module to display Splatfest/Big Run/Eggstra. 23:48, 7 April 2023 (UTC)
 * Oh i just saw that...good job! Octogamingpro (talk) 17:13, 9 April 2023 (UTC)

Salmon run Rotation
Shouldn't the rotation on the website contain the boss of the current rotation if anyone has a reason on why this is not a think please tell me MangoTango (talk) 18:06, 9 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Because it's only a set boss for Big Run. Normal Salmon Run's boss salmonid is always random. SP☆CEBOY S3 Gear Headgear Captain's Gear.png S3 Badge Splatana Wiper 5.png ( talk ) 21:25, 16 May 2023 (UTC)
 * They actually alternate, Horrorboros always goes after Cohozuna and Cohozuna always goes after Horrorboros. The only exception might be when a wildcard rotation happens. Other than that, while there's only two King Salmonids, they'll keep alternating, it's not known if this will stay true when a third King Salmonid gets added to the game.

 * I think @SP☆CEBOY meant that they do rotate, but I didn't know that they alternate! 16:50, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
 * Actually, I think what I just said sounded redundant. Whatever. 16:51, 17 May 2023 (UTC)
 * It's okay. You were right, that was what I meant. SP☆CEBOY S3 Gear Headgear Captain's Gear.png S3 Badge Splatana Wiper 5.png ( talk ) 17:32, 19 May 2023 (UTC)

Happy Birthday Inkipedia!
Happy Birthday! This wiki has been my 1-stop shop for all my Splatoon                     needs! I hope your wiki and the rest of the NIWA has a bright future!

Happy Birthday! 🥳🎉 - Akbrain Akbrain (talk) 16:30, 28 May 2023 (UTC)


 * Yeah, I should have moved this to the Ink Pump. Akbrain (talk) 12:00, 3 June 2023 (UTC)

Splatoon music page
Should we add the sound effects to the music section? e.g. The music played when someone is standing on the tower or the clam basket breaks.

Schedule/Alert template for challenges
There should be a schedule for upcoming Challenges; since it's an upcoming event. 15:41, 7 June 2023 (UTC)


 * yeah I agree! OpalTheOcto8 (talk) 15:54, 7 June 2023 (UTC)
 * I think it could be a better way at seeing the schedule, even though the schedule is in game. It's also an event so it counts... I guess. 16:20, 8 June 2023 (UTC)

dark theme
For those of us that browse inkipedia in the dead of night, I wanted to propose an idea for a dark theme for inkipedia. The dark theme would be dark, hence dark theme, but with red, yellow, and blue highlights, referencing the splatoon 3 splatfest preview colors, replacing the yellow and blue/purple that's usually in the standard/light theme. Stilllight (talk) 00:59, 12 June 2023 (UTC)


 * If you are using the old vector skin, it may interest you to check out User:Fumple/DarkMode. Alternatively, you could use your own custom CSS design to change the colors as you have mentioned, through Preferences->Appearance. Trig - 01:11, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
 * the fumple dark mode thing isn't working for me Stilllight (talk) 01:46, 12 June 2023 (UTC)
 * it 's not working for me too, are you supposed to click the box that says  change that ? VioletOcto (talk) 15:49, 20 June 2023 (UTC)
 * look above the part that says "Dark mode is not enabled." there should be another "Change that" button that changes your vector skin. after that you can click the bottom button. *aggressive introverting* Marie dance.gifS3 Icon Shiver.pngS3 Badge Cuttlefish.png Mariefan 17:48, 28 June 2023 (UTC)

Splatoon 3 Challenges
You know how there is a Schedule for the modes and stages? well, shouldn't we add one for the challenges? Just an idea it's ok if we can't. DJ Opaltavio (talk) 18:36, 11 July 2023 (UTC)


 * I'm pretty sure they're discussing that... a lot of people share your opinion. 18:47, 15 July 2023 (UTC)
 * Yay! Ok! I hope we do because somedays I can't play Splatoon 3 so it will be very helpful if they did! :D DJ Opaltavio (talk) 17:24, 19 July 2023 (UTC)

Two Splatfest sections.
Shouldn't the Ice Cream Splatfest be removed when the next one has been announced? 23:45, 28 July 2023 (UTC)


 * Currently, there are no events in between the ice cream fest and the upcoming fest, so both of them are in the events tab. When the next big run occurs (which is the next major splatoon 3 event) the previous fest will be removed. 00:45, 29 July 2023 (UTC)

Inkipédia Fr
Hello, I am the Splatoon 4 user of Inkipedia in French, and I publish this message so that some of you are motivated to participate in the Inkipedia Fr project. If you are a volunteer, Inkipédia Fr lacks contributors, so you will be welcome. Splatoon-4 (talk) 16:58, 2 August 2023 (UTC)


 * I think it would be best to move this to the Ink Pump. 21:28, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Inkipedia Twitter
For some reason when I scroll down to the bottom of the page I can't see the Inkipedia's twitter news anymore. It's also happened on other devices I've gone on. DJ Opaltavio (talk) 15:10, 6 August 2023 (UTC)


 * Hi there! The Twitter news section is currently removed as the changes put in place by Elon broke it. Until we find a way to get it working again, it's intentionally hidden. :]  15:26, 6 August 2023 (UTC)
 * Noooooooo! I don't use twitter! DJ Opaltavio (talk) 16:16, 6 August 2023 (UTC)

ink fest
I cant seem to find the ink fest on my home screen was it removed? VioletOcto (talk) 15:20, 3 September 2023 (UTC)


 * Yes, it was removed from the main page because it's not as used as much anymore. You can still search for it. 16:18, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
 * As OrderSquid said, it was removed due to lack of use. I'm guessing that everyone is using Discord to organize games. If you use the Inkfest page, you can save a bookmark to Inkipedia:Inkfest, or you can type INK:FEST or Inkipedia:Inkfest in the search bar. Heddy (talk) 16:27, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
 * thanks :) VioletOcto (talk) 17:07, 3 September 2023 (UTC)
 * I dont use discord VioletOcto (talk) 17:08, 3 September 2023 (UTC)

Weapon Demonstration Videos for Splatoon 3
Are we allowed to make short 30-second clips on switch demonstrating each weapon in the game and what it can do? If so, I’d like to make some to contribute! Just wanted to make sure it was ok first. HalfSanitized (talk) 16:03, 4 September 2023 (UTC)


 * We actually used to do this for S2 and S1 and those were youtube videos created by either an inkipedia user or the inkipedia youtube channel. I think it will be fine to make videos for demonstrating the weapon, but it will probably have to be longer than 30 seconds. 17:17, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
 * Oh, fair enough. I’ll see if I can make some short ones. The ones I’m talking about though wouldn’t be like a step to step guide, but more of just a sneak peek at what the weapon does HalfSanitized (talk) 17:36, 4 September 2023 (UTC)

Inkipedia es and fr
Why is there no mention of Inkipedia es or fr on the main page at all? Freddie (talk) 19:40, 4 September 2023 (UTC)
