message: I reformatted in the game list based on the slick wikitable from the guitar hero series wiki. Used Capcom for the developer for all the games, I'm sure they're not the developer for all of the games, and needs to be updated whenever possible.  Tubeyes (talk) 16:10, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: A long long time ago, on a Wiki page that was deleted... There multiple individual articles for Resident Evil characters! Some of these articles were well written, while many failed WP:WAF  and WP:V. Over time, some editors decided to take those articles to AFD, without holding a merge discussion first. Content was lost. The characters were moved to list pages, like Characters from Resident Evil 2. Then Character lists/articles were merged. More content was lost. Rather than having multiple bad articles, we eventually just had one large bad article. Eventually this article was copy-edited and sourced over a period of time. So, all the discussions are either in ADFs, or merged Talk pages from Character Lists. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk   16:44, 11 January 2011 (UTC)

message: I suggest that Resident Evil: The Missions , Resident Evil: Genesis , Resident Evil Confidential Report be merged together into List of Resident Evil games along with short summaries of the other games that are not merged but have separate articles. 65.93.12.101 (talk) 08:31, 10 April 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: A merge sounds reasonable, or better yet, a "Mobile games in the Resident Evil series" article (with a paragraph or two in the series article) – the individual games look too unsubstantial for individual pages, but a common article could present them in a more attractive manner.

message: The other day Bloody Disgusting published an article indicating that a Resident Evil TV series was in the works. Other online media sites, like Polygon and Joystiq have also looked into the story. While it is in fact legit, please bear in mind that it is not a TV Show yet. Right now it is just a pitch that a director is trying to sell to a network or media outlet. If a network chooses to pick it up, then it will deserve mention in this article. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk   21:26, 12 August 2014 (UTC)

message: Is there any way to move the Reviews table into that blank space in the Reception section? I previewed a few attempts at moving the table but it's a bit of a headache to figure out. Anybody better versed in tables have a suggestion? PcPrincipal (talk) 21:53, 21 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Would anyone be aboosed to using a show-hide feature for the review scores? --  StarScream1007  ►Talk   22:26, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

text: Do we actually need all those individual scores for each game on each system on this page? Why not remove the table entirely (perhaps discuss a few highlights if notable), and otherwise leave the individual game's scores to the individual game's pages? Aawood (talk) 11:07, 22 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I think either of those would be good options. I'm gonna look into the show-hide function in the mean time and maybe we could discuss restructuring the table, etc. PcPrincipal (talk) 19:38, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

text: Once again, I'm baffled by this table. The mark-up is such a mess. Or maybe it's just me. But either way, someone who gets wikitables better than me should look more into it. This page has code for collapsible tables. PcPrincipal (talk) 19:47, 22 June 2018 (UTC)

text: I like what you've done, definitely an improvement. Aawood (talk) 20:09, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: I agree that it looks much better. Good Job, . I tried to research the code for a collapsing table, but it does not seem to be compatible with 'Template:Video game series reviews' at the moment. We could make something from scratch, but this is a better option for now. --   StarScream1007  ►Talk   22:54, 29 June 2018 (UTC)
replies: text: Thank you! And yeah I might be more willing to look into it later on now that it's simplified. Another solution I thought of was adding more to the reception to fill in the blank space. I don't really have anything in mind for that though, and at that point we'd just be using content to fix a cosmetic issue. Maybe a backwards method. For now I'm fine with it, glad to hear it's looking better! PcPrincipal (talk) 17:55, 30 June 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Solutions to the ugly blank space in the Reception section? 

message: Biohazard has been the original name published by the Japanese company as the authentic name, and published in parallel in the US as Resident Evil. The scope of Wikipedia is of a worldwide and some English-speaking countries (for instance, Hong Kong), has known this franchise as Biohazard instead of the American name. And also how this article does not contain the Biohazard logo is also beyond me. It has been mentioned in both the English and the Japanese articles that Biohazard has been the series name, only to be shown as Resident Evil for publishing in the US due to a used Trademark. Biohazard represents better the authentically intentional name of the original authors, and not to mention their preferred publishing name. -Joshua.yathin.yu (talk) 07:49, 1 May 2019 (UTC)
thread_title:  Should the franchise be referred to as Biohazard and only remarked to be called Resident Evil in the US? 

message: please explain here why you think the movie logo should be retained in the article. If you continue to revert without edit summaries or discussing on talk pages, you will be blocked again for longer or potentially indefinitely. As to why I want it pulled from the article, it simply doesn't help illustrate anything to the user. The picture of the director and lead actor is more informative.

replies: text: Is it possible to keep both images? Since they are technically free, there's no need to worry about a Fair Use Rationale. I think they both have some merit, but I am learning towards Tarkus. The logo will likely be dated once more information is released about the reboot film. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk   18:54, 30 November 2020 (UTC)

message: There seems to be some disagreement on whether Resident Evil Zero and Resident Evil: Code Veronica are considered mainline entries or spin-offs. I, for one, think we should list them as mainline entries:
* They feature gameplay identical to the mainline entries at the time. Spin-offs which were all light gun games, Game Boy games, etc.
* They are canonically tied with the mainline plot.
* They are both more ambitious projects than Resident Evil 3 in terms of scope / scale / probably development costs.
* Resident Evil Zero is numbered. Being a prequel doesn't matter.
* Code Veronica is a mainline entry in every way except it has no number, and this was for marketing reasons. (discussed HERE)
* Sources discuss them as mainline entries: 
TarkusABtalk/contrib 01:34, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: I think they are main titles but some people think they are spin-offs, because they were initially released for Dreamcast and GameCube instead of PlayStation. RE4 was also going to be a GameCube exclusive according to Shinji Mikami, but that didn't happen. Story doesn't matter, otherwise Revelations games would be main titles too.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 176.89.110.245 (talk) 23:36, 6 January 2023 (UTC)

message: I'd say that adding the Japanese and Hepburn text fits the article more just like the Silent Hill article.
It's okay if you disagree. 49.150.75.30 (talk) 02:17, 16 November 2021 (UTC)
replies: text: The GA/FA-class articles about video game franchises, such as Clock Tower (series), Fire Emblem, Metroid, Persona (series), and Final Fantasy all use the ref-note as opposed to directly placing the Japanese/Hepburn text in the lead. However, I do not think there's a MOS standard for this. Let's see what the other editors think. --  StarScream1007  ►Talk   02:34, 16 November 2021 (UTC)

Scrolling the page searching the best timeline to play the games in, a minute ago my eyes fell totally unwillingly a couple of times on at last two different endings of two different games of the serie..
