That sounds like a good idea!

It makes sense, really - the wiki is supposed to be an organised collection of information, not a lump of random facts.

It also makes reading pages easier.

I think this policy has already been enacted on most wikis, so we're probably overdue.

Thank you!

Sounds good!, the trivias it is supposed to be curiosities not information that can be not real or random, organised and easier to read, perfect! --Splatoon635

Just one thing. There should be some guidelines for trivia in the policy. It says "Often, trivia items do fit somewhere else, but an editor simply failed to properly work it into the article when adding it" and "Trivia items that cannot be worked into the article's existing structure can be processed into organized lists, under new section titles of an editor's choosing, such as "Cultural references" or "Ink color details" or "Etymology"" but we need some guidelines on what qualifies as trivia and how trivia should be fit in. Other then that, I agree with the policy. Eminence (Chatter) 19:15, 2 October 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]

That is answered on the page: "Content qualifies as trivia if it is information that is not significant or vital to either the game or gameplay, does not fit in other places of the article, and is of interest to note". Heddy (talk) 12:26, 3 October 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Yeah totally agree. We should really start sorting out all these info. You can even count me in if this becomes an actual thing. Yawshi Fan (talk) 05:12, 24 October 2020 (UTC)Reply[reply]
