THIS IS NOT AN UPGRADE/DOWNGRADE THREAD!!!!

So one thing Darkanine, Mugenryu and I discussed was the separation of certain files. Many Digimon and their evolutions have separate files when in fact they should be one large file. For example, Greymon has a Greymo page, MetalGreymo page, WarGreymo Page and a VictoryGreymo page(even though a separate VictoryGreymon page does sorta make sense considering...). As you can see this is completely unnecessary...

The other problem is many Digimon are scaled to their anime incarnations. While for some it is okay, Digimon like Greymon who usually has an important role in many other media should not be scaled Taichi's Greymon. Similarly we do not scale Taichi and Yamato's Omegamon to the MASSIVELY more powerful Omegamon's throughtout the franchise.

And such Ii feel that we should separate the main anime Digimon files to the lore/composite Digimon files.

Example: We would merge the Greymon pages to this:

Greymon | MetalGreymon | WarGreymon | BlitzGreymon | (Maybe) VictoryGreymo

This would also decrease the amount of unnecessary pages.

Of course you ask what these files would detail. These files would be a kind of composite in which we utilize databooks, video game, TCG, etc We would only use anime Mega level feats as a basis(Or if that is all they have). Well most mega levels are in the Low 5-B- 5-B range anyway.

For a good example of what these files will be like see Angemo.
 
I agree with merging the pages. I never understood why they weren't like that, it seemed like unnecessary work.
 
About this, the problem is the fact that evolutionary lines are not always consistent.

Sure, we can combine Greymon, MetalGreymon, and WarGreymon and GeoGreymon, RizeGreymon, and ShineGreymon just fine, but tacking on VictoryGreymon and ZeedGarurumon, exceedingly special cases that they don't Digivolve to under normal circumstances, would be strange to me.
 
Well that's why I didn't include them as a must merge. Those two are indeed special cases compared to the others in their families.
 
I agree with Reppu. Merging iconic lines together (Agumon -> WarGreymon. 2006 Agumon -> ShineGreymon) and other families (Like Angemon) is a good way to remove clutter. Though, special cases like VictoryGreymon and ZeedGarurumon should be separated.

@RadicalMrR.

They were only really done like that when Everlasting-Mercy handled the Digimon pages looooong ago.
 
If we composited all Digimon profiles Barbamon and Zeed would have the same page.

Let that sink in for a minute.
 
Pretty much all the Royal Knight would stay the same. This would only effect some of older files. Good lord when a Composite Zeed won't change at all...
 
@Cross That sounds good on paper...until you realize that nothing will really change(Sad ain't it)...Which is kinda sad because that means Zeed hasn't really done much outside of 2 games and 1 manga....
 
I suppose that this seems reasonable, although take care with the exceptions, as others mentioned above.
 
So question. Should we add the Virus Greymon's to the BlackWarGreymon page?
