Inkipedia talk:Checklist of gear in Splatoon

Total amounts for each gear type / Simple checklist
Last November I helpfully pointed out that total amounts for each gear type should absolutely be listed, if only to make it vastly simpler for people to confirm that they have collected 100% of it. The point was not heeded, so I have now had to sloppily implement it myself. While they should certainly be revised in a more appropriate or attractive way, they are vitally important pieces of information that must be allowed to remain.

Furthermore, the list of printable gear is far from being as usefully accessible as it should be. For starters, the checkboxes for ownership should be on the far left near the gear's name instead of the far right where they are less easily identified. More importantly, the boxes should indeed be CHECKable, eliminating the unnecessary and generally less useful need to print the list at all. The only similar option I imagined would be taking many screenshots of this page, and editing in my own check marks..... Currently it is not possible even to simply copy the list of item names alone in order to, say, paste into a note and delete each item while running through your own in-game equipment, resulting in a properly referenceable list of only those still needed to be obtained, as all current lists on the site are grouped in rows and require a great amount of editing to remove everything other than just the relevant item name.

I had to do just that 8 months ago, but ended up losing the results, a mere three pieces of clothing. As such, seeking a method less reminiscent of weeding out a ton of garbage, I decided to type every single clothing name I owned, alphabetize it, and cross-reference with the list here. Both of these endeavors took HOURS, none of which would have been remotely necessary had the following text alone just been available from the start. Once more seeking to save others the great trouble, I'll have to take it upon myself to include it on this site myself if someone else will not, if in a less than stellar way. Even now, it can only be correctly viewed while in edit mode....

Question
Why is this (and Checklist of gear in Splatoon 2 for that matter) a mainspace article? I would suffice if it was regulated to the Help or Inkipedia namespace, but these articles aren't in those namespaces, and for that matter the content that they point to is in second-person, which is a big no-no. -- PanchamBro (talk • contributions) 06:11, 11 May 2022 (UTC)


 * According to the manual of style, second person POV is acceptable in walkthoughs and other situations. It may be possible to re-write it to be third person, but that may make it harder to understand, and that section is instructional, so this must be an acceptable use of second-person.
 * Regarding namespaces, Inkipedia namespace is for projects and info about Inkipedia, Help namespace is for help using the wiki. Mainspace is for articles about Splatoon or related enough to Splatoon to be in scope. This page is a list of items from Splatoon, like List of clothing in Splatoon, so it fits best in mainspace.
