infoboxes etc.
[edit]@Victonter Why did you remove or shorten down the info boxes for some of the characters? I though Lloyd's looked rather nice but now its quite minimal.

- Hello again!
- Whilst I really do appreciate your contributions, it'd be so helpful if you didn't just undo things I have obviously just intentionally changed!
- The content you've added is fantastically informative. However, Wikipedia articles don't get created if they have no references! Rather than just writing what is true in your eyes, it'd be so helpful if you could go through, with a really critical eye, all the content already there, and see whether you can add a reference to support the claim.
- A great place to start to get these references would be the character listings on https://www.lego.com/en-us/themes/ninjago (and old versions archived on the Web Archive).
- Also, if there's a particular episode which backs up the point well, the Template:Cite episode can be used (e.g.
- Hageman, Dan; Hageman, Kevin; Hausner, Peter (25 August 2018). "Green Destiny". Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu. Season 9. Episode 94. Cartoon Network.
{{cite episode}}:|access-date=requires|url=(help)
- )
- One of the things I recently changed was to reduce the number of parameters to only include what's necessary for a Ninjago character Infobox on Wikipedia, e.g.
| Lloyd | |
|---|---|
| Ninjago: Masters of Spinjitzu character | |
| First appearance | "Rise of the Snakes" |
| Last appearance | "Green Destiny" |
| Voiced by | Jillian Michaels (Seasons 1—7) Samuel Vincent (Season 8—present) |
| In-universe information | |
| Family | Garmadon (father) Misako (mother) |
| Relatives | Wu (uncle) |
- All other relevant character information can be put in the main body of text (e.g. 'Created by' — for the absolute majority of cases this will be the Hageman Brothers, and even when it's not, there's no reliable source to deduce this information from. What would be more useful is to give due credit to the Hagemans in the article opening.)
- As I've said before, this article should not try to include all the same information as Ninjago Wikia. Wikipedia has very strict guidelines about what can and can't be included (as detailed on Wikipedia:What Wikipedia is not). Don't forget that the audience is far more general (i.e. not just fans) and the content and design of the article needs to reflect this.
- Thanks again for your help,
