Amazing image. This is without doubt one of the best pages on the wiki. I can't believe I've only just discovered it. --Andrew 04:28, 6 November 2007 (PST)
Dragon Names
I wonder if we should attempt to make names for the other Chinese dragons. For instance, we know that Celestial Dragons are Lung Tien "Name" (Dragon Celestial "Name"), and Imperials are Qin. Though not explicitly stated, the Shen-Lung dragons are almost certainly Lung Shen, and their page should possibly be titled Spiritual Dragon. Yu can translate as Jade, so that covers Jade Dragons. The only two Chinese dragons we don't have names for are the "Emerald Glass" and the "Scarlet Flower". Is anyone on this wiki familiar enough with the Chinese language to translate the names and create a conjectural name?
Breeds by country
Should we sort the dragon breeds by their country of origin on this page, or should we create another page for them. I just realised that there is at least one type of dragon (a small purple breed from China) that we have no other information about, and as such we won't be able to create a page for it. But, if this page was sorted by country, then we could add a note in the Chinese Breeds section about it. Thoughts on this?
Perhaps start a new page called something like "List of dragon breeds by country of origin" that can be put at the top of this Dragon Breeds category index? Maybe then we could move the Dragons in America and Dragons in Canada page there, since they are sort of miscategorized in the "Dragons" secetion, which is pimarily individual dragons? -- strangerface
- I'd suggest adding countries of origin as indexed subcategories, in the same way that the "Category:People" page is already set up. --Wombat1138 19:51, 12 August 2010 (PDT)
