Talk:List of LEGO web games
List auto-generation?
Can we auto-generate this list by year from pages which are tagged with a set of categories, such as Category:Browser games and Category:1996 video games? I'm open to moving information such as developer, platform, and references to individual pages for each game. Mdean (talk) 23:47, 12 July 2024 (CEST)
- No idea if that's possible, I've never seen that on Wikipedua at least. Macley might know if it's possible. Ringtail Raider (talk) 02:25, 13 July 2024 (CEST)
Naming conventions
Should games such as "RoboRiders Game" include the word game in the title? I am beginning to think that the game should simply be titled "RoboRiders" and the article use parentheses to indicate it is a web/video game. This seems more accurate even to how such games were referred to at the time in e.g. press releases. Notable exception might be MNOG where the game is commonly referred to with "game" in the title.
Similarly, should we omit "LEGO" from the prefix of games such as LEGO World Builder/World Builder 2/LEGO Castle? I am thinking we should omit for consistency and seeing as this entire wiki is focused on LEGO content exclusively. Not as sure about e.g. LEGO Island Comic Adventures.

- I think it depends how the game is titled or referred to. The RoboRiders game for instance seems to be referred to as "the RoboRiders game" so I'd say just "RoboRiders (video/web game)" would be best there For Mata Nui Online Game (or Mata Nui: The Online Game as I've also seen) that seems to be part of the game's name. As far as Lego, probably also depends. Admittedly I don't really know how many of them actually have Lego in the title and I usually see them referred to without. I'd usually include Lego in the title of retail games that use it (2002 games excluded) but with webgames I guess whatever sounds best. Still kinda undecided on when to include Lego in the name like with themes and such. Ringtail Raider (talk) 02:19, 13 July 2024 (CEST)
