| Re: Seventh Catalog Project - Titles Update - StormChaser (568) | [...] Thank you very much for making a chart. This kind of in-depth, serious analysis is greatly appreciated. I haven't had time to look it over completely, but I wanted [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project - Titles Update - StormChaser (568) | [...] Right, and I did think of that and disliked it. I have most of the 4 Juniors sets done now according to the guidelines: (URL) Honestly, when I see all those set numbers [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project - Titles Update - StormChaser (568) | [...] Taking a hard look at item numbers is another huge project which is on my distant radar. Item numbers aren't changed very often because it can have negative effects [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project - Titles Update - StormChaser (568) | [...] Right, but adding trooper at the beginning of all troopers will group them all together and fit in with the larger plan for all minifigures. As I said, this initial [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project - Titles Update - StormChaser (568) | [...] For this we'd probably do something like: Hero, Luke Skywalker, Additional Descriptors as Necessary (Set Number) And: Villain, Darth Vader, Additional Descriptors [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project Underway - StormChaser (568) | [...] Right, but remember that your experience with the catalog is different than mine and mine is different than Randy's. Some people do want the item numbers there and [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project - Titles Update - StormChaser (568) | [...] Great, thanks for testing these out! The interpretation of others will allow me to see where explanatory flaws lie. [...] We're not really changing anything yet [...]

| Seventh Catalog Project - Titles Update - StormChaser (568) | [...] A couple of people have suggested we begin at the beginning with standardized titles for all minifigures. I agree and thank Lauren_Luke and mfav for mentioning it. [...]

| Re: image for hol132?? - StormChaser (568) | [...] We don't like to add items to the catalog without an image and hardly ever do. In the case of this figure the inventory is pending approval and rather than delay [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project Underway - StormChaser (568) | [...] I just checked and TLG refers to this character as both Genie and Genie of the Lamp. So either is technically appropriate as the official title. TLG, like BrickLink, [...]

| Re: Head Category Split - StormChaser (568) | [...] Okay, so what suggestions do you have for something better? Keep in mind that it needs to be something which will keep these heads about where they are (close to [...]

| Re: Head Category Split - StormChaser (568) | [...] Meh. Gave it some thought and didn't like it and changed it back. I'm just going to retitle these heads so that they're searchable and they'll also [...]

| Head Category Split - StormChaser (568) | I have split heads into two categories. Minifigure heads now exist in the original category and a new category titled Minifigure, Head, Faceless: (URL) This category will be [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project Underway - StormChaser (568) | [...] Whatever solution we achieve will be applied consistently. If set numbers, then yes, the extra portions of the titles would be removed. Even among those figures there [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project Underway - StormChaser (568) | [...] Yes, I was looking through minifigures a little bit ago and I see that this project will involve more than just removing set numbers from minifigure titles. [...] Are [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project Underway - StormChaser (568) | [...] I ain't say it was a consensus. I only said everyone so far (at that time) was in favor of removing set numbers. I've noticed that only a few people [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project Underway - StormChaser (568) | [...] Right now the titles are mixed, but you're saying you prefer just the set number in the title with no further descriptors. We could go that route, too. As I mentioned, [...]

| Re: Seventh Catalog Project Underway - StormChaser (568) | [...] The general trend of opinion is to remove set numbers from minifigure titles (pretty much everyone I've heard from privately and publicly agrees or would be okay [...]

| Re: 4x4 dish with open stud - StormChaser (568) | [...] We'd need to see some hard evidence. I've just now looked at a number of different sources and have found none.

| Re: Projectile Launcher - StormChaser (568) | [...] This would require a new relationship type. I have been thinking about that for years and I suggested it some years ago. This would be a relationship type that shows [...]

| Re: Projectile Launcher - StormChaser (568) | [...] Yes, I agree with that. Once the project launches and I get the definitions all written I will open the category definitions to discussion and possible modifications [...]

| Re: Projectile Launcher - StormChaser (568) | [...] That's a reasonable assessment. However, I'm fairly confident that the changes I've made or coordinated in the catalog so far were all improvements. Still, [...]

| Re: Projectile Launcher - StormChaser (568) | [...] That was the point of the Projectile Launcher category: to group all of these together in one place. However, I'd prefer to wait for the launch of the parts reclassification [...]

| Re: Sixth Catalog Project Underway - StormChaser (568) | [...] This is not a problem with individual catalogue entries, but instead a flaw in the system. The bug has been around for a long time, but I have recently reported it and [...]
