Hello! I've been creating all of the pages for the [[Heroic Challenges]] since a few days back. I've noticed that in the [[Template:HeroicChallenge|Heroic Challenges navigation template]] that "Fight, Teleport, Fight!" had been incorrectly named "Fight, Teleport, Fight Some More!" I'm unaware if the HC is actually named this way on different consoles (I play ''Spyro's Adventure'' and ''Giants'' on the Wii and all other games up to ''SuperChargers'' on WiiU), so if it is, please don't bother changing it. I would correct the mistake myself, but I don't have the privileges to do so. Could you help me out and correct it for me? --[[User:GizmoTheDragon|GizmoTheDragon]] ([[User talk:GizmoTheDragon|talk]]) 20:31, July 1, 2017 (UTC) | |||

What do you mean by "not a fandom wiki?" If you look in the top left corner of your screen it should say FANDOM POWERED BY WIKIA, all I wanted to do was add a page that gave people information on a topic that myself and many others online would like quick access to. I wanted to make a page that could get people involved with coming up with fun challenges to change the way you play, and sharing them with the rest of the people on this wiki.

*I'm really sorry for the rushed reason, I didn't remember it can't be edited. FANDOM is the name of the wikia community, I meant Fandom Wiki as in [http://skylanders-fan.wikia.com/wiki/Main_Page wikis specifically for content created by fans, like this one]. The issue with adding fan content to this wiki that isn't for the purposes of replacing gaps left by official content(such as enemy names) is that it can be easily mistaken for official information, and with the way your article was written, it seems like it would be more useful in the Fan Wiki instead as its primary purpose is unofficial content. So sorry for the confusion once again, but if you'd like to add this page to this wiki only, I would speak with Aura24 instead on ways to explicitly show it's for the purposes of the fandom.

== An Extremely Large But Possibly Valuable Data-Collecting Conquest == | |||
Hey, it's me again. I've had this thought for a while: Wouldn't it be worth the effort to document every way each Skylander can deal damage, how much damage those ways deal in each game, considering all possible combinations of upgrades, maybe even recording each Skylander's highest DPS (damage-per-second) for each game? At first, this seemed reasonable; in SA/Giants, damage is consistent between games. However, when Swap-Force rolled along, I noticed that damage dealt was a bit different, not to mention that stats were also handled differently. This is true even for the games after this. I don't play Imaginators, but I've heard that the usual stats have been replaced with something completely different? | |||
This makes such a task of recording all of the things previously mentioned much more tedious, but wouldn't it be worth it? With all of that information recorded, we could answer questions like "What's the highest damage-dealing Skylander for flinging projectiles over walls or onto tall platforms: Flameslinger, Whirlwind, Boomer?" | |||
Recording such information would probably require a new template, which would initially display damage amounts for attacks without any upgrades, as well as a the highest possible DPS and what the attacks deal if it results in a critical hit, and all of these can be viewed in the terms of what game is being played, which can be toggled by the reader. For each upgrade that the reader toggles on, all of the above values change to account for it. Something like that. I'm no good with making templates, but I know that one like this would need to be heavily versatile. For example, Swap-Force characters would probably need separate templates for the top and bottom halves, since recording both together would probably lead to issues. | |||
Sorry for the very long and probably confusing/overwhelming message, but I just wanted to hear an opinion for the moderators/admins before considering to even begin something like this. Thank you for your time. --[[User:GizmoTheDragon|GizmoTheDragon]] ([[User talk:GizmoTheDragon|talk]]) 13:38, September 21, 2017 (UTC) | |||
*While I definately get your enthusiasm, not sure how worth it would be unless it's something you're 100% invested in. Most people only care about the general damage numbers in a character and how their DPS fares, not exact numbers - and the games unfortunately justify the feeling with all the power creep and these numbers changing every game for no reason; it just kills its own metagame.
