Consistency
I created the talk page for more of a discussion instead of a plan for RemyWiki. I've been curious.
- Are we trying to add Long versions of songs if possible to song pages?
- Adding translated lyrics?
- Adding romaji to lyrics?
- Translating song names into what they mean?
I realize the wiki is far from complete, but I thought it was best to maybe put this out so we can have a good base of what we can also add/may not need to add to the pages. I've seen some pages with romaji, translated song names, or more recently was someone deleting full/long version lyrics to make it more relevant to the lyrics that were only on the song.

- Only to KONAMI originals.
- Yes.
- Yes.
- Not a priority. --FinalOffset (talk) 11:34, 15 October 2014 (UTC)
- Personally I don't mind as long as they're correct (as in, they make sense given the original lyrics). --FinalOffset (talk) 03:36, 20 October 2014 (UTC)
- I'd agree with FinalOffset, as long as the lyrics are reasonably translated and make sense, they can be included. CardinalDan (talk) 03:51, 20 October 2014 (UTC)
Technical specifications for games/hardware
- What do you guys think about having the technical specs for these games/cabinets on here? imo it'd be a great addition as there's no real "central" place to get specs for these games and it could be useful for AC ops. I know a lot of users who'd love to contribute to this kind of thing. --Corin (talk) 08:47, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
- Sure thing. --FinalOffset (talk) 01:08, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
Alternate languages
- I mentioned before that I got approached by someone from Korea who wanted to translate the wiki into Korean with his friends and asked what you guys thought about having a Korean translation namespace for here but got no reply. I recently now have been approached by someone from China wanting to translate it into Chinese so I'll just ask it here, would you guys mind language specific namespaces? --Corin (talk) 08:47, 17 August 2015 (UTC)
- Seems OK to me at least. --FinalOffset (talk) 01:08, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
Art Gallery for songs with multiply banners
A solution I was thinking for this problem to clean up space on the pages was to write in the Trivia section with the following:
"Since (song name)'s debut on (arcade title or console title), it has received a couple of different banners in its appearance following it's debut. A gallery list can be found (song name/gallery|here)."
And in the new page, we can give a short description of the banners (pointing out what was changed). Any thoughts? - QueenZ (talk) 17:59, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- I already have in works a solution for this. Probably I will have news by the end of this week. --FinalOffset (talk) 19:01, 22 November 2017 (UTC)
- So here it is: for songs that have multiple banner/jackets, use the {{Gallery}} template at the top of the Trivia section. It will create a red link for a Gallery subpage, where the different images can be put using the format of one of the songs in this category. The idea is to just keep on the song pages the most recent jackets or banners used in active BEMANI games only.
- There are other things that I have to do on the wiki, but I'll make more Galleries when I see songs with large amounts of images. --FinalOffset (talk) 01:53, 27 November 2017 (UTC)
Tokimeki Idol series
Since BEMANI seems to be including more songs from the new (not yet released - correct me if I'm wrong) franchise, is it possible to make/ok to create an artist page that covers it, similar to ひなビタ♪ - covering the songs from the franchise and singles/albums releases?
It would also help out with vocal section of the songs added to BEMANI (see DREAMING-ING!!) by linking it to that page and then mention which character is featured in the song; still figuring out how to make the vocal list work though... any thoughts? - QueenZ (talk) 01:49, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
- I don't think it's a good idea. Unlike ひなビタ♪, which started tied with BEMANI and still is highly tied with it, Tokimeki Idol is its own game, from another Konami franchise, which happens to have a handful of songs in BEMANI - see Otoca d'or as well. --FinalOffset (talk) 02:01, 29 December 2017 (UTC)
