Names

For the manga cards, are we using "Name, Occupation of the Forest" or "Forest Occupation Name". We have them inconsistently named at this point and as far as I'm concerned, both are valid translations, yes? Cheesedude (talkcontribs) 16:18, July 12, 2012 (UTC)

The series seems to be an expansion on "Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest" and "Yellow Baboon, Archer of the Forest" (see below), so "Name, Occupation of the Forest" is probably the better one. -- Deltaneos (talk) 23:55, July 19, 2012 (UTC)

Members and page name

Since this doesn't have any support cards affecting cards with "Forest" (森) in their names, not every card with "Forest" (森) in their name should be considered a member. It's just the group of cards that are deliberately thematically connected. Does anyone object to having all the non-"Name, Occupation of the Forest" cards removed? On that note, maybe the page should be called "Of the Forest", rather than simply "Forest"?

The series seems to be an expansion of "Green Baboon, Defender of the Forest", "Yellow Baboon, Archer of the Forest" and possibly "Wodan the Resident of the Forest", so they should probably be included. However "Arcane Archer of the Forest" has a very different Japanese name, so he shouldn't count. -- Deltaneos (talk) 23:55, July 19, 2012 (UTC)

For that matter, Arcane Archer's Japanese name doesn't even contain "森", so even if this were an archetype, he wouldn't be a member. ディノ千?!? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 20:57, July 21, 2012 (UTC)
100% agreed. In fact, this series was supposed to be all beasts mostly with effects regarding Field Spells, but also some other ones, like Special Summoning - all to support "Fairy Dragon - Ancient". But there happened to be many other cards with that kind of name. So I think it'd be better to reduce the number of cards the most possible. I guess "Name, occupation of the forest" would be enough.

We should probably merge "Baboon of the Forest" here now, should we? -- Deltaneos (talk) 01:21, July 22, 2012 (UTC)
Agreed.  HHT   - (Talk to the Turtle) 05:02, July 22, 2012 (UTC)
I don't think they should be. A lot of monsters with "Warrior" in their name have swarm based or defensive effects, it doesn't mean that they should be part of Yusei's Warrior series. TheScarecrow14 (talkcontribs) 13:06, July 23, 2012 (UTC)

Adding some monsters?

Since this is now a supported archetype with Medium of the Forest, Gecko, can we now add Green Baboon and Yellow Baboon? They would be supported by it so I think they'd need to be added to the navbox. PHASE (talkcontribs) 04:50, August 27, 2012 (UTC)
