| It's a minor detail, but although the main page says proposals for KH1 were brought to Buena Vista, according to Wikipedia they were Disney Interactive from 1994-2002, and it says Disney Interactive on the game itself. However, Wikipedia also says, ''"Buena Vista Games is probably best known for the Kingdom Hearts series along with Japanese developer Square Enix."'' under the 2003-2007 section. Does anyone know which one is right? --[[File:Riku Sprite KHD.png]] [[User:Mikoto|mikoto]] 07:32, 6 April 2023 (UTC) | | It's a minor detail, but although the main page says proposals for KH1 were brought to Buena Vista, according to Wikipedia they were Disney Interactive from 1994-2002, and it says Disney Interative on the game itself.

| == Terminology ==
| |
| | |
| I've been looking at the file name for files in the article and come to the realized there is no real cohesive or consistent naming scheme for them and those that are named don't make sense in correlation to each other. The naming for files are as follow; Unused, Removed, and Demo.
| |
| | |
| Like, why is "[[:File:Disney Castle Trailer KH.png|File: Disney Castle Trailer KH.png]]" not noted on what kind of naming it is, but "[[:File:Kingdom Hearts coded cutscene (Removed) 02 KHC.png|File:Kingdom Hearts coded cutscene (Removed) 02 KHC.png]]", despite both them appearing in early trailer/screenshots is.
| |
| | |
| I think the wiki needs to reclassify/reorganized/define all the different uses of the naming term based on how its used in video game development, so as follow;
| |
| | |
| * '''Unused''' - Media that were made but not used in the final product, but '''doesn't''' appear in press/early media. Ex: [[:File:Kingdom Key D KH3D.png|File:Kingdom Key D KH3D.png is an example of a Unused element that was never shown off.]]<br>Purposed name: ''Kingdom Key D (Unused) KH3D''.
| |
| | |
| * '''Removed''' - Media that were made but not used in the final product, but '''does''' appear in press/early media. Ex: [[:File:Jungle King (card).png|File:Jungle King (card).png is an example of a Removed element that was shown off, but doesn't appear in the final product.]]<br>Purposed name: ''Jungle King (card) (Removed) KHCOM''.
| |
| | |
| * '''Beta''' - Media that were made but '''change''' between revealed and final released. Ex: [[:File:Aqua (Unused) 02 KHBBS.png|File:Aqua (Unused) 02 KHBBS.png is an example of a Beta element that was changed for final released.]]<br>Purposed name: ''Aqua (Beta) 02 KHBBS.png''.
| |
| | |
| * '''Demo''' - Stuff really only apply to the KH3D Demo content and there really not much to change for them.

| :I definitely agree that the current naming pattern makes no sense. That said, it might be cleaner to just have most files as '''Removed''' – regardless of if it was shown off, it still was planned for the game and subsequently cut. If we know what build of the game the content is from, then '''Demo''', '''Alpha''', or '''Beta''' would be appropriate, but I'm not sure what we gain from differentiating '''Unused''' and '''Removed'''.
| |
| :For instance, unique versions of both "Guardando nel buio" and "He's a Pirate" were found in the files of KHII, but since only one was refitted for the final game, they would be titled differently. Likewise, having both "Unused" and "Removed" stumbles when considering concept art and interviews about early content released after the game itself. It just seems easier to have it all under the "Removed" umbrella, especially since it's all going on [[Removed content]] and [[:Category:Removed content]] anyway. —[[User:Aid1043|<span style="font-family:'Times New Roman'; font-size:110%; color:#9932CC">Aid</span>]][[User talk:Aid1043|<span style="font-family:'Times New Roman'; font-size:110%; color:#9932CC">1043</span>]] 15:08, 11 June 2023 (UTC)

| ::Right, thats fine. Simplifying and Categorizing terms would be easier. So something like;
| |
| | |
| Beta - Media that were made, but '''change''' between revealed and final released.
| |
| | |
| Removed - Media that were made, but **not** used in the final product..
| |
| | |
| This should make everything easier to categorized. {{User:UnknownChaser/Sig}} 01:42, 29 November 2023 (UTC)
