Lead

1. Inconsistent description of hair with the body of the article; calls them pigtails in the lead, but ponytails in the body. Also, does it have either? To me, it seems like she just let her hair down.
   1. Should be fixed.
2. Inconsistent pronoun use; uses they/them/their/theirs at some points, she/her/hers at others, and it/its at others
   1. Fixed. I did leave the one instance of her in regards to Unite's commentary, as it's a singular Tinkaton. Can't do anything about the other quotes that use she or its sadly.

Infobox

1. Not related, but god it'd be neat if there was a way to say "Pokemon species" instead of character so we could remove a field.
   1. Yeah that may be worthwhile to bring up to the infobox page, had something else I wanted to mention there.

Appearances

1. Is the description of "toddler" mentioned in RS or primary sources?
   1. Removed it.
2. Taxi shouldn't be in quotes, as it's an understandable word and accurately depicts a taxi service
   1. Fixed

Reception

1. Is there no commentary to do with the mismatch between Corviknight and Tinkaton in gameplay?
   1. Sadly the only discussions about their matchup were in GameRant and Screenrant

Images

1. All good.

Sources

Still need to do this.

All good. :v - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 03:09, 2 August 2023 (UTC)

Unnecessary information

Tinkaton#Design_and_appearances. The first section only explains what Pokémon is, it isn't related to the specific pokemon at all, it's unnecessary --MystiiFlareon2 (talk) 08:29, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

On the contrary, it's been established across FAs and GAs that this information is important to help establish terminology for the rest of the article and help a reader unfamiliar with Pokemon understand what they're reading.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 14:56, 26 January 2024 (UTC)

The section is exactly the same as the one from List of generation I Pokémon and a bunch of other pages such as Wooloo, and I still think it is way too exessive for a sub-page like this considering you can just click on Pokémon which is linked multiple times throughout the article, if someone somehow don't know what it is. I think the section (and by extension the one on the other pages that use this text as wel), should be shorter at least. --MystiiFlareon2 (talk) 07:59, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Well judging from the discussion on WT:VGCHAR you're in the minority point of view there...I mean I know you're newish to the site, but there was a reason and several discussions along the way for that paragraph.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 08:14, 29 January 2024 (UTC)

Alright, opinions differ after all and I have a tendency to make things bigger than they need to be, sorry :p.

Also, if I have other video-game page related questions that apply to multiple pages, (such as that Pokémon info text), should I be using this page? --MystiiFlareon2 (talk) 09:40, 31 January 2024 (UTC)
