Inkipedia talk:Ink Pump

The Ink Pump Welcome to the Ink Pump. Similar to Wikipedia's Village Pump, the Ink Pump serves as a general place for the Inkipedia community to discuss the wiki as a whole, whether it be ideas, proposals, technical issues, or notices.

Remember to put new discussion sections at the bottom of the page.

You may also wish to view recent talk page discussions.

2020 user stats!
See who had the most edits and most uploads! The 2020 user statistics are now available.

In addition, I have created the Inkipedia:Statistics page to conveniently have all of our wiki statistics links in one place. Happy new year! Heddy (talk) 03:27, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Cool how you made that! ChessMaster   [TALK]  03:49, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
 * The stats are all generated by bots. Heddy (talk) 04:38, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks for that, It's really convenient. 12:43, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

Yay I made it to the top 10 :) i was also the first edit of 2021 -- Queenie the Overlord   [Splatz]   19:00, 2 January 2021 (UTC) Can I make a barnsquid for the Non-Vandals, (I noticed one or two blocked users)--  Queenie the Overlord   [Splatz]   19:03, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

I made the top 10 too! Just ahead of you Prinz! :) ChessMaster   [TALK]  19:28, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Ugh... Nm im not a bad sport.--Prinz fanart.jpg Queenie the Overlord   [Splatz] Prinz fanart.jpg  20:22, 2 January 2021 (UTC)

I'm just below Yoshiver :D I see the edits are concentrated in the top of the list Yawshi Fan (talk) 03:41, 8 January 2021 (UTC)

Reviv Newsline
So I was readimg the archives for ink pump on Inkopolis Newsline. And I thought to myself hey, this would be kinda cool if the idea was rekindled. Who is with me or am I a sad loner.-- 23:26, 4 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I think it is a good idea. you could work on it in your userspace. Squid400 (talk) 19:00, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks :) i hate how dead our community is -- 19:53, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Where is the Inkopolis newsline? I would like to see what you want to rekindle ChessMaster   [TALK]  20:01, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * since the idea was scrapped, theres is only this *Sigh* Blog:Inkipedia Newsline and User:Mr Squid/Inkipedia Newsline. I destroyed a lot on the pages that was inactive and un helpful. Ask the other members. I haven't seen em in a while --  21:14, 7 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Absolute yes! I want it revived! ChessMaster   [TALK]  22:30, 7 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Almost all the editors from the original newsline movement have gone it active at this point, but, if you can find a place for me, I can do pretty much anything. 23:26, 7 January 2021 (UTC)

Gameplay walk-throughs
I was wondering if we would ever provide gameplay walkthroughs for the Octo Expansion and Octo Canyon like it is for Octo Valley. thanks!Ressescups (talk) 20:07, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * You can write some gameplay walkthroughs if you want. I believe Yawshi Fan has made significant progress on this and you can contact them on their talk page if you want to help them. 20:24, 7 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Yes I'm working on it :D I don't have a capture card tho, so someone else has to record walkthroughs. Yawshi Fan (talk) 03:42, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
 * And the maps too. You can see the map of stages in the galleries of Octo Valley stages. I wonder who made them and how... Yawshi Fan (talk) 03:44, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
 * The Octo Valley maps were extracted from the game. In other words, Nintendo made them. Heddy (talk) 03:49, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Oohhhh. Someone might have to get to datamining then :/7 Yawshi Fan (talk) 05:22, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
 * There aren't any gameplay footage of Octo Canyon and Octo Expansion since no one decided to record and add them to the wiki. Everyone can add them. I have made for Octo Valley but didn't do the same for the 2nd game. That's why there aren't any walkthroughs on those pages. Shahar (talk) 00:34, 8 January 2021 (UTC)
 * I do have a capture card, a capable PC, Splatoon 1 and 2, and Octo Expansion. Am I allowed to submit recordings as I replay through the campaigns for this wiki? I'd like to help. Could be fun! Finnegan (talk) 21:13, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

For the Inkipedia competition
I made this page. Also I read that the winning team of some tournaments get thier own page. User:Prinz the overlord/Splatmageddon!-- 20:46, 9 January 2021 (UTC)

What is the competition about?Ressescups (talk) 20:45, 12 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Fun mostly. Wanna join.-- 21:26, 12 January 2021 (UTC) ps division B or C, C is for beginners and B is for comfortable players

YES, How do I sign up.do you use Signupgenius?Ressescups (talk) 13:45, 13 January 2021 (UTC)
 * Err Idk, maybe u could help with organisation.-- 15:15, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

Do we do turf war and tally up points or something like that?Ressescups (talk) 20:00, 13 January 2021 (UTC)


 * I'll join when you sort out how to sign up. Firewave (talk) 19:33, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

Poll on main page
I'm a Chrome user, and the poll widget is out of place. It's too large for the mobile interface. Can someone look into that? Thx Yawshi Fan (talk) 23:28, 12 January 2021 (UTC)


 * Strawpoll.me has its own minimal width and height. If we set over it, a scroll bar will be added. We can maybe set to have that scroll in mobile view but I don't think having scroll bar looks good. There's an option to change to Desktop View at the bottom of the page in-case you want to see the page like you see it in PC. Shahar (talk) 14:41, 13 January 2021 (UTC)

View counters are going away
The page view counters at the bottom of the page in desktop mode are going away soon, so enjoy them while you can! They are being removed due to a technical reason: "putting a reverse proxy in front of mediawiki to reduce the load means that the mediawiki software doesn't see all the hits". Heddy (talk) 02:54, 19 January 2021 (UTC)

Barnsquids
how do i get barnsquids --Bambamoh (talk) 01:11, 20 January 2021 (UTC)


 * No one particular person hands out barnsquids at this point, because there was not enough interest in the movement to go on with it. You can, however, if you feel you have earned it, go to Inkipedia:Barnsquids and follow the instructions there to add it to your user page. Hope this helps! 01:54, 20 January 2021 (UTC)

Inkling personalities?!
Heya it's Carrie! So.. I was just thinking about Inklings. You know, because they smile usually and are mad when they lose battles? Could it be possible to put down some of that on the Inkling page? Thanks. -- Carrietta "Carrie" White (talk to me here) 18:02, 2 February 2021 (UTC) 20:42, 31 January 2021 (UTC)

X-rank userbox
so, i was thinking, there are S+ userboxes, level 99 userboxes, but no X-rank userboxes. could i make one? 19:06, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I made the userbox, but nobody (Sept @User:ChessMaster) has used it!! the link is here Template:X-Rank. 19:10, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Inkopolis Memorial Mixtape
There seems to be no page about it. Could make the page or is there a reason why the page doesn't exist? ChessMaster  [TALK]  18:15, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
 * @ChessMaster Good catch! There is no problem with making articles for music. Is that a remix or an original song? Heddy (talk) 22:41, 5 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Pretty sure a remix as it features different songs. I'll work on it soon! ChessMaster   [TALK]  23:58, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

Hello people looking! I am working on the page now! If you want to contribute, you can just click here! Your help is appreciated! ChessMaster  [TALK]  18:19, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

I can't find any info on "Inkopolis Memorial Mixtape". How and when was it released? Did it play in-game? Heddy (talk) 18:33, 8 February 2021 (UTC)


 * All I know is that it came out during or before the Final Fest. For proof go to Music and under the Final Fest section, there it is. ChessMaster   [TALK]  18:43, 8 February 2021 (UTC) (That's all I know)

T3zlacoil
does anyone think we should have an inkipedia fan art thing maybe like the one over on nookipidia? does anyone agree? 𝕿3𝖟𝖑𝖆𝖈𝖔𝖎𝖑 18:58, 3 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Perhaps. It could be something for the Inkipedia newsletter, which is in production. What type of ffan art would it be? Lewds and/or comics with heavy explicity are not accepted here on Inkipedia due to the Splatoon series being mainly for children. Carrietta "Carrie" White (talk to me here) 17:46, 5 February 2021 (UTC)

I think it would be a great idea for fan art! I would love to see some but I can't make any because I cannot draw. Maybe you could make a page and then advertise it? Toni Kensa (talk) 12:32, 13 February 2021 (UTC) That'd be nice. I can draw some squids but that's it haha Carrietta "Carrie" White (talk to me here) 00:48, 14 February 2021 (UTC)

Sounds cool, I would love to see the fan art! Could you try to make, like, maybe a system where there's a "top 10 pieces" and this is decided by voting or a like system? That'd be so cool! Firewave :) 01:24, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Google Search
Just wanted to Say, INKIPEDIA IS THE MOST SEARCHED SPLATOON WIKI IN GOOGLE!!!! Congrats everyone!!! 20:26, 5 February 2021 (UTC) I made crabby cakes. VEEMO also what would a nònbinary inkling say idk-- 20:31, 5 February 2021 (UTC) Prinz what does that have to do with-- oh, whatever. Congrats to all y'all Inklings and Octolings who work on this wiki :) Carrietta "Carrie" White (talk to me here) 02:15, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Cos im an exited NB inkling-- 12:41, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 * It depends on the Splatoon topic you search for. For some Splatoon related searches I have seen Fandom rank higher. Heddy (talk) 23:10, 6 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Coroika fandom... I hated it there.  23:36, 6 February 2021 (UTC)

Well good job any way everyone! Toni Kensa (talk) 12:34, 13 February 2021 (UTC)

Icons not working
Some of the little pictures are not working like for the current weapons in Salmon Run Agent 15 (talk) 09:57, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
 * They're showing up fine on my end. Perhaps try clearing your cache. Luke26 (talk) 11:01, 8 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Thanks, they work now! Agent 15 (talk) 12:09, 8 February 2021 (UTC)

Minimum effort rule
I think we need to define a minimum effort rule for creating a new mainspace article. I don't want mainspace to be filled with hit-and-run, zero effort pages. But on the other hand, I don't want all stubby pages pages to be moved to userspace, because that can discourage collaboration. Does anyone have suggested changes or feedback? Would the addition of this rule improve the wiki? Heddy (talk) 22:16, 9 February 2021 (UTC) Disregard this for now. I will bring it up again if I see too many pages being unjustly moved to userspace. Heddy (talk) 05:03, 11 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Does the subject has enough information to justify the creation of its page or would it better fit in a section or a list? I think minimum effort is to add a section rather than creating a page so creating a page should have significant information with sections that start the idea of them. (An example: 8-Ball compared to Maika) Shahar (talk) 22:32, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Dudes, whoah, chill chill CHILL. The reason I made the page was so everyone could edit it and make it the best it can be. FYI, the pages Prinz, Hit, and X-Blood are similar to the Maika page, and people changed the pages to make them good. Do I sound rude? Kind of. What I'm trying to say is-- if you wanna change it, go edit it as I am working on projects like reviewing Live from Squid Research Lab posts to find descriptions for articles (like photos uploaded directly from art books, posts, concept art, etc). Carrietta "Carrie" White (talk to me here) 23:30, 9 February 2021 (UTC)
 * It's nothing personal. It's just so when a new page is created it won't seem barebone. Is the subject significant enough to have its own article? Is there enough content to write paragraphs about various subjects like personality, beliefs, appearance, behavior, history, character development, etc. Shahar (talk) 15:08, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

HMMM.. *intense thinking intensifies* Yeah, I knew it was nothing personal and you are riht. Besides, the squid kids comedy show is fairly new, so we don't have a lot of info on the characters. *With megaphone* OK SQUIDKIDS LET'S FIND INFO ABOUT THIS MANGA Carrietta "Carrie" White (talk to me here) 23:40, 10 February 2021 (UTC)

Weapon of the day
So I brought this up on the main page discussion and I think it would be cool to put a recommended weapon either from Callie or just a random generator.Ressescups (talk) 18:40, 15 February 2021 (UTC)
 * But Inkipedia is just a source of information. Readers should use the information they read here to make their own decisions about what weapon to use. Heddy (talk) 03:07, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I think that would be cool. I definitely need to practice other weapons now and then. But maybe put in "recommended by Callie" in, because Heddy has a point. Firewave (talk) 23:29, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Splatoon 3
Since Splatoon 3 just was revealed, I think we should make a page on it. I know that we don't have much info, but this is the kind of thing I usually like to check here and get my facts straight. Firewave (talk) 02:33, 18 February 2021 (UTC).
 * There is already a page on Splatoon 3 BambamOh (talk) 02:40, 18 February 2021 (UTC)

Ok, but how do I delete this now? Firewave :) 00:40, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Ink Pump topics should never be removed. Discussions that remain inactive will eventually be archived. Heddy (talk) 13:42, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Im Back!
I decide to get back into Inkipedia because it was really sad to don’t be part of this comunity. I have to say that I get inactive because Splatoon wasn’t the same for me, so i get disconnected, but I decided to get back because of the anouncement of Splatoon 3 (I was literally crying because my interior Woomy get back again) that means Splatoon are alive for the next years, so im here. User: Splatoon635 23:01, 18 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Welcome back, Splatoon635! Heddy (talk) 03:07, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello again!-- 17:16, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi again, it’s been a bit, hope you’re well. 17:40, 19 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Welcome back!!!! Glad you're here. Firewave :)  00:41, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Hi
Hello, I'm Dynamo. It's nice to meet you all! Also, how do I add tags to my user space? --Dynamo (talk) 17:04, 19 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Go to Template:Userbox and Category:User boxes for help. Hope it helps! 17:15, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks! --Dynamo (talk) 17:25, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Customization Icons
Do we need customization icons for anything? I need something to do and I have a pretty good MP4 of the S3 trailer.

~ωοοιοο (talk) 18:25, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Is it of the trailer itself, or clips of the trailer? I know I'm new here, I'm just asking. --Dynamo (talk) 18:37, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

they would be the customization icons from the trailer but redrawn. ~ωοοιοο (talk) 20:48, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Barnsquids
How do barnsquids work? I've made ten edits, but I don't know whether they automatically show up in your user space or you have to insert them in. --Dynamo (talk) 18:49, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
 * You can add your own barnsquids once you feel like you've earned them Template:Barnsquids BambamOh (talk) 19:00, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks. I'm reading about barnsquids right now, and I'm pretty sure I have at least one. --Dynamo (talk) 19:02, 19 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Anyone can hand out Barnsquids! Like Bambamoh said, you can also give them to yourself. Heddy (talk) 20:57, 19 February 2021 (UTC)

Page about Bands/Artists?
I feel as though there should be a page just listing each of the fictional bands/artists in both games. I know their is a page just on music, but I feel as thought it would be nice to have page focussing on just the bands, and put things like their description from the research lab, a description of their music in general, and also maybe how many songs they have or how many members in the band? --Tescotime (talk) 20:33 20 February 2021 (GMT)
 * Great idea! I believe Band would be an appropriate title for the article. I encourage you to get the page started yourself, and others can help you if they are also interested. Heddy (talk) 22:28, 20 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Band is an official term right? Because otherwise it seems weird to call single person acts like DJ Octavio and Dedf1sh a band. 21:47, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
 * How about "musicians"? "Artists" could also work, but might get confusing if the painter or sculptor type of artist ever becomes a Splatoon topic. "Musicians" would be the least ambiguous. Heddy (talk) 23:31, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

Should there be a page listing species?
Should there be a page called "Species" (instead of it just redirecting to the category)? There are many species who don't have a dedicated page, such as sea urchins, sharks, eels and such. There is already a page for primitive animals, but I don't see a page listing all species that have been shown to exist. Hinamin (talk) 15:41, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

Yeah,That sounds like a good idea!Fancy squid&#60;:&#61; (talk) 16:02, 21 February 2021 (UTC)


 * While there isn't a page covering the different species as a whole, Denizens of the deep covers the creatures seen in Octo Expansion, and animals covers any real-life esque animals, but not the anthropomorphic humanoid animals like Inklings and Octolings. Characters also lists a bunch of species too. Maybe there could be some merge potential?  21:52, 21 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Yeah, the thing is most of these species have little to write about, if they had their own pages, it would be very short. It's better to group them together. Yawshi Fan (talk) 22:51, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

Maybe for anthropomorphic species we could group together like Flowand,and Krarla. And for fish Ryū-Chang,Taichi Sawaberu,Nishida,and Kuze to name a few.Fancy squid&#60;:&#61; (talk) 23:24, 21 February 2021 (UTC)


 * I have no idea what you mean, but if you mean the characters, I'm pretty sure it is a thing already. Yawshi Fan (talk) 23:36, 21 February 2021 (UTC)

Plans for the main page
So I went back into the main page's history, and discovered an old layout that got changed when Splatoon 2 came out. I was wondering if we were gonna do anything to the main page when Splatoon 3 releases, or has that not even crossed anybody else's minds? WoomyMcBoomy (talk) 22:02, 22 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Well, we would change it to include stuff about, but I don't think the main page would undergo any major changes. 22:07, 22 February 2021 (UTC)

Maybe we could add a picture of the inkling with the bow and her buddy to replace the inkling with the dualies! WoomyMcBoomy (talk) 21:29, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

Inkfest tournament
I am wondering if there is interest in an Inkipedia-hosted tournament. Kind of like the previous "Inkfest" events but larger scale and more serious. To those interested, do you have any ideas for how the tournament should be operated, or any ideas to make it unique or interesting? Heddy (talk) 23:54, 22 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I have no ideas, but I am interested in an Inkfest. dedf1sh07 (talk) 00:04, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
 * DUDE I MADE THE IDEA ages ago! User:Prinz the overlord/Squidmageddon!-- 05:51, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Nice. Looks like there's more: User:Octokid?IDKilikeittho/Churro vs. Frozen Yogurt, User:ChessMaster/Arrows vs Iromaki. No need for me to start another when so many are already planned! Heddy (talk) 19:29, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Its amazing seeing everything we can join! :D ChessMaster   [TALK]  19:32, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I'd be interested in a Inkfest. --S2 Icon Inkling Squid Green.png Splatana   talk   contribs  S2 Icon Inkling Squid Pink.png 17:22, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I would enjoy it, if we could get on whenever we want. Squid400 (talk) 17:25, 24 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm willing to try it! It sounds cool. Firewave (talk) 19:14, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

Though I haven't been on the inkipedia for very long, I may give it a try! It seems to me like a chance to learn more about the wiki. This tournament is about making the most edits, right? WoomyMcBoomy (talk) 21:26, 24 February 2021 (UTC)


 * No. The Inkfest is a Splatoon tournament hosted by Inkipedia. 22:43, 24 February 2021 (UTC)

A page dedicated to the spawner drones
So I was checking out the spawner drones, and I noticed that there is a lot of info about them that hasn't really been discussed in the wiki. I was thinking about making a page about them, though I may need some help. Is it okay if I do this? WoomyMcBoomy (talk) 19:04, 23 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Sure! Start it as a draft in your user page, and then move the page to the mainspace when it's ready. 19:08, 23 February 2021 (UTC)
 * I'm not sure if there's enough info on the spawner drones to merit its own page at the moment, when that info could just be added to the Spawn point page instead. I guess we can decide on that after @WoomyMcBoomy finishes their draft. -- 19:39, 23 February 2021 (UTC)

I have made the page. It isn't complete, but it's here. You can decide on what do do with it now. I've added as much as I could, a limiting factor being my knowledge of wiki code. Here's the page; Spawner drones. WoomyMcBoomy (talk) 19:59, 23 February 2021 (UTC)

I think you should wait until another trailer/S3 comes out to decide, since it looks like it'd be pretty fresh with a bit more info. Firewave :) 01:32, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Competitive Pages
Hey, guys. I want more competitive strategy pages if that is fine with you all. Also, experiment with this link:

https://selicia.github.io/en_US/#0000000000000000000000000

Anyways, I would love it if you guys could give me tips on how to use weapons for those pages, and so I can get out of the B and A ranks. I'd love it if we had no relinks on the competitive sections, even if the weapon is underrated. Also, please no 0-effort pages. Experiment with the like, see what fits you, and put it down.

Thanks, Lunasona8 (talk) 19:07, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Oh, and by the way, I think we should start with underrated weapons, but we could do more popular ones first. It's your choice. I want it done before Splatoon 3 launches if that's okay. Lunasona8 (talk) 15:37, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Signatures
How do you get a signature? They look cool, and I was wondering if I could use one. Dynamo (talk) 22:39, 25 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Hi, all you need to do is create a page called User:Dynamo/Sig and use this formula   When you are done with that, go to Preferences on the top right menu bar, scroll down to Signature, click "Treat signature as wikitext", and get your code and copy and paste. See User:Eminence/Sig2 and User:Eminence/Sig4 for more code.  dedf1sh07 S2_Gear_Headgear_Golden_Toothpick.png 22:52, 25 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks a lot! Dynamo (talk) 22:55, 25 February 2021 (UTC)


 * Thanks, I was wondering myself! :) Firewave :)  00:36, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Remember, you're not supposed to copypaste the code on your Sig-page into the Signature box in Preferences. You're supposed to type into it, or else you'll get an error. See Inkipedia:Policy/Signatures for more details and instructions. -- 01:22, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
 * -- How did you know that that was exactly what I did? But thanks, now I know!
 * Well, I didn't. It was in response to @Dedf1sh07 above, and the instructions they gave to "get your code and copy and paste". Also, I saw that you, Dedf1sh07 and @Dynamo all have been struggling to set up signatures based on your recent edits, so I assumed you might need some help. Setting up a signature is quite finicky (especially if you're not familiar with wiki markup code), but once it is set up properly, your custom signature will appear automatically whenever you type . -- 13:04, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Thanks! I fixed it, and I really like it! Dynamo (talk) 15:55, 27 February 2021 (UTC)

splatoon island
I just joined but we don't have a section on the April fools trailer of splatoon island made by a member of the fanbaseAgent3ismalebecauseisaidso (talk)
 * Inkipedia is focused on that actual games, not fan-made trailers. 16:32, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

Competitive sections for game mechanics
So i was thinkin about the spawner drones, and thought to myself "Yknow, there are a ton of tactical possibilities with these things, since you can choose where you land." And then it hit me; What if we add competitive sections for different game mechanics? Like, we could come up with effective strats to use things like sponges, inkrails, gushers, and other stuff like that! What do yall think? WoomyMcBoomy (talk) 16:42, 26 February 2021 (UTC)
 * Hello there! Start off with a draft click on this link and start it, and when it is good enough we'll move it-- 17:04, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

YESSSSS! Thanks! I'll get started on it soon! WoomyMcBoomy (talk) 17:06, 26 February 2021 (UTC)

I think that's a great idea and I'll definitely be checking it out as soon as it's out! 03:09, 27 February 2021 (UTC)

I made it. here's the first page. Competitive:Goosponge. This is my idea made onto a page. This is just a rough draft, tho. WoomyMcBoomy (talk) 17:36, 27 February 2021 (UTC)

My theory
Ok, so as you guys know splatoon 3’s release years was announced a few weeks back so I thought that we could share ideas! InfinityInk (talk) 21:33, 27 February 2021 (UTC)

I don't know, isn't Inkipedia just a source of information? I don't think it would be for theories. But that's just my opinion, if others think it's ok, that's totally fine. Dynamo  (talk) 22:03, 27 February 2021 (UTC)
 * @InfinityInk Like what Dynamo said, Inkipedia is a source for information about the Splatoon series. But if you want to share ideas, you could put them in Talk:Splatoon 3, as long as the theories are about something like a weapon kit, not something like names for the little buddy. 03:02, 28 February 2021 (UTC)
