Look, this article on the DLC for ScVi has as much right to be needed as those for the Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra in SwSh do. Plus, The Teal Mask is out right now. What more proof do you need?! Visokor (talk) 20:42, 19 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The current consensus is for this page to redirect to the main SV page, so if you want to get something different, start a discussion to get consensus, don't just add the page back without discussing it with anyone. And your rude and unprofessional behavior isn't going to help you do that. LordEnma8 (talk) 18:00, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

And where exactly do I need to go to get consensus? Visokor (talk) 18:08, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Appeal

I am hereby now appealing against the original concensus of this article's deletion and redirection to the main Scarlet and Violet page. I may need some editors willing to support me in this. The storyline's official logo has been found and a reception table for Teal Mask has been made too. Perhaps a streamlining of the TM plot might be needed too.

@Blaze Wolf: Tagging the original person who originally nominated the article for deletion LordEnma8 (talk) 18:28, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I am choosing to abstain from this vote as it would require me to read through the article and I don't want to be spoiled for the DLC cause I'm planning on playing it myself. I will however mention this on the WP:VG talk page. ― Blaze Wolf^Talk_{blaze__wolf} 18:59, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support Now that the DLC has been released, I think there is now sufficient content for a separate DLC page to exist. LordEnma8 (talk) 18:32, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support & Comment As the guy that originally authored the article for the 1st DLC of the previous generation, I believe there is a independent notability in order to justify separating from the original article. My point of concern would be wondering whether we keep the entire expansion pass as one article or split each DLC into an article each. I am curious in what others have to say on the matter though. Captain Galaxy 23:53, 21 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Well, Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra are presented as separate storylines, aren't they? However both DLC in this generation are considered and treated as a single storyline, right? Visokor (talk) 06:31, 22 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

I wouldn't know about this game and it's DLC because I didn't buy it. Captain Galaxy 18:00, 23 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Support if there's enough coverage to form a proper article. I feel that's most likely the case, given a brief search yields a multitude of them that make it so a merge with the main article would be unwise. However, I feel for now we should keep the DLC split as just The Teal Mask for now, given we have no coverage on The Indigo Disk for the time being. Once the second expansion releases, a separate discussion should likely be held about whether merging with The Teal Mask or keeping them separate is for the best, especially since these DLCs form one larger cohesive plot in the way of Kieran.

I quite agree with you on the "larger cohesive plot" front. Isle of Armor and Crown Tundra are considered somewhat to be separate storylines, while both Teal Mask and Indigo Disk are considered to form a single storyline. Visokor (talk) 07:37, 24 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]
