Keyblade-Blk.png So, I write this because that two new music articles got my head thinking. We have few articles of music tracks from the Kingdom Hearts games. Other than the two themes by Utada Hikaru, most of these articles are almost complete stubs. Just look at The Corrupted, The Encounter, and Happy Holidays. I think that we should create a policy for our music pages. We just have articles on random music tracks right now; perhaps we should create articles for each music track, or create requirements for a music track to be featured in an article. Please leave your input on what you think should be done!

Keyblade-Blk.png This forum isn't about videos, it's about our articles about music from the Kingdom Hearts series, particularly its background instrumental music.

Eternal Nothingness XIII - Terra Master Symbol.png I'm not afraid of what the darkness holds now. Even if you do wrest control of my heart from me, even if you cast me into the deepest, darkest abyss, you'll never sway me from the one cause that pushes me to keep on fighting. Whatever the cost, I'm ready to pay it.
TALK - There's darkness within me... So what does that matter? I know I'm strong enough to hold it back. — 00:51, 1 September 2009 (UTC)
Earthshaker Keychain KHBBS.png Perhaps only allow articles for the main songs (Org. XIII themes, character themes, etc.)? That would be easier than having 100+ pages of stubs, don't you think? That would mean we would have :
  • Sora
  • Riku
  • Kairi
  • Namine
  • Roxas
  • Org. XIII
  • 13th Struggle
  • 13th Dilemna
  • 13th Reflection
  • 13th Anthology
  • Lord of the Castle
  • Darkness of the Unknown


And possibly more...if needed. Just with that list above, we'd have 12-13 articles.

Well character themes can be covered in each character's pages in a subsection (more or less like it's done in the FF wiki). As for which music piece should get an article I'm thinking iconic music, that is music that has appeared in at least two games like Dearly Beloved (can't think of another one at the moment). World music can equally be covered in world articles (but I'm not too sure about how much we want each article with music samples).

KrytenKoro - "Space Corp Directive 195—In an emergency power situation, a hologrammatic crew member must lay down his life in order that the living crew members might survive."
 "Yes, but Rimmer Directive 271 states just as clearly: 'No chance, you metal bastard.'"
TALK -
[1] format should work for most of the songs on the soundtrack, and I can provide some images and sound files for that.

Songs that have special significance to the games, or appear on multiple soundtracks, should probably have an article. So, the opening and closing songs, and stuff like the Atlantica songs and The Other Promise, which appeared on the OST and Drammatica.

Character themes would perhaps work best in a "Music" section on the character's article. They are pretty much the same topic, so there's no reason to give them more than a redirect, unless, like with The Other Promise, they are used as game/trailer themes, like Sanctuary and Hikari were.
