Characters

Something I've been thinking about for a while now, I think it would be a good idea to make a list of characters for the champions. We could have them in alphabetical order.

This isn't something that any other gaming articles do and would take up a lot of spaces + finding sources would probably be difficult for each one. ― TUNA × 13:58, 9 September 2022 (UTC)
It's actually been done before and was deleted at AFD. WP:GAMECRUFT is against huge lists of characters with no reception or secondary sourcing. -- ferret (talk) 14:27, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

Add [[Category:Video games containing battle passes]] to the bottom of the page.

Context: This category summarization page on Wikipedia: https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Category:Video_games_containing_battle_passes lists Video games with battle pass monetization.

Unnecessary mention of LoL and League in lead

Per WP:VG/LEAD, we do not add gamer jargon.

Avoid "commonly known as" and "stylized as", unless the point of abbreviation or stylization has been made by a preponderance of reliable, independent, secondary sources. Wikipedia maintains a formal tone and, like newspapers and magazines outside the gamer niche, uses brief phrases instead of abbreviations.

We're not using LoL or the shorthand League in the article, as that would be inappropriate per WP:TONE, so there's no point mentioning it in the lead, which is the summation of the article. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 12:38, 10 April 2023 (UTC)

Not invested in the outcome so no formal vote for me, but some context:
  • I removed LoL from the lead at FAC and was rebuked on the basis that "LoL" redirects to the page.
  • Sources within the article (Washington Post and Polygon, from quickly looking) refer to the game as League. I do not like calling the game "League" on Wikipedia, so have consciously eliminated all mentions, spacing out the full name so it didn't jar, but think it has encyclopaedic value (it's a widely used shortening and may be useful to the few readers who are fortunate enough to have never heard of the game). If someone were to add some sentences which use "League", I wouldn't contest.

Also, strictly speaking, per WP:DABABBREV, if we did not include "League" and "LoL" in the article, then we could not link this page from the League and Lol dab pages, which would obviously impede navigation. The "LoL" stylization is also the name used for the game's esports component: [1], so not only is it documented in secondary sources, it is an official acronym.---- Patar knight - chat/contributions 15:34, 11 April 2023 (UTC)
