Comment

I would add links to Peeron etc. as sources for basic information (number of pieces, minifigs, release year, does it exist at all)--LegOtaku 08:57, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

For sets which have been released twice, but under different names and/or numbers (please vote for only one below):

Have one article for each release (+6)

Support

1. It's too confusing to have an article called 1272/1282 Turbo Racer/Blue Racer. Some of these sets are also released in different themes and years (6100 Aquashark Dart and 1095 Super Sub), which makes the info in the infobox even more confusing. I would just add a small note that the respective set is similar/identical to another one and link to the other article.--LegOtaku 08:57, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
2. kingcjc 15:25, 5 May 2009 (UTC) - I used to hate it when I saw that, hence why I split the Star Wars ones. I definitely support a article for each release
3. As long as there's a clear link that stands out to say that points to the article of the same set. I'll make a template for this if this proposal wins out. NovaHawk 01:42, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
4. User:Cpatain Rex/sig 21:48, 6 May 2009 (UTC)
5. Using / as an "or" in titles is a bad idea. It would be a subpage of the first number. The MarioGalaxy2433g5 {talk/contribs/Logs} 22:46, 17 May 2009 (UTC)
6. --Coupon11 00:21, 16 May 2009 (UTC)

Have one article on the set, with title "<num1> <name1>/<num2><name2>" (±0)

Comments

• Maybe a title like "<Set name 1>/<Set name 2>" i.e.: 1272 Turbo Racer/1282 Blue Racer instead of 1272/1282 Turbo Racer/Blue Racer in rare cases. --LegOtaku 08:57, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Quotation Template

• Hi, I was wondering what people thought about the new template, {{quoteLEGO.com}}, being added to the Manual of Style for sets in the quotation from LEGO section. NovaHawk 23:35, 29 August 2009 (UTC)

Make {{quoteLEGO.com}} a part of the MOS (+3)
