Revision as of 00:35, 31 December 2022
Recently a few members of the wiki (me included) have made mascot concepts for the wiki: Ace, Vivi and... Jeff the Tree Frog. However, despite being popular, none of these mascots are official yet. I was thinking of having them be official mascots for the wiki and implemented across certain parts of the site.

Support though I'd also appreciate giving pics of them to let others know what they look like. But they're all very good characters who can represent us well.

Support on the entire face of the planet. Jeff The Tree Frog, one of my four favorite words. Anyways, as I am the one who possibly started this idea, I feel the wiki should have a mascot as it would give us a lot of personality and stand out from the boring crowd like Logopedia. On the other hand, I am coming up with more AVID mascot concepts that are more about the wiki and it's branding rather than our little froggy inside joke.

- The image of Jeff The Tree Frog... you have managed to turn some random National Geographic image of a tree frog you can find just by googling it into a beautiful Cuphead masterpiece. And that is all I can ask for. I might make a full lore on Jeff who knows.
- I am also working on another concept for AVID mascots (ones that you can say are better).

- i just saw them in uploads. sorry charlie but they are not very good.

- yeah sorry but me too Thesquidgeeks (talk) 05:41, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
- Copy that.

Support screw it, if you can't beat 'em, join 'em. Lets get them happening.
(name change coming soon) 02:48, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Support The potential is there for these to gain somewhat of a Wikimedia sister (link) level of reputation if at least unofficially implemented, and I support that. As for actual purposes, it makes little practical sense for all three to be used simultaneously, the average user might get confused. Ace alone is perfect for those purposes, while Vivi and Jeff are fine to be sidelined. PM pinter (talk) 02:52, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Support i love em, this gives us a new face for the wiki as a whole, hope this gets past voting because id love to draw em, even when it dont ill still do it. User:KinnardASDF (talk) 08:53, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Support Obviously, as the father of Ace, I shall give a yes. It'd be pretty if all would be used in some capacity, but I'm fine if this RfC results in an election for whom should be the sole mascot of AVID.

Support. Similar to Wikipe-tan, it helps give the wiki some nice identity without interfering in our main goal. Dominicmgm (talk) 03:40, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Support. Heck to the yes. Solarstrike (talk) 04:43, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Support Yes Thesquidgeeks (talk) 01:29, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Support Per everyone else
(The Third Place) 05:57, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Support ABSOLUTELY, YES! EsaïeGregoryPrickett (talk) 07:44, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Support in the whole world. Cattotlebofficial (talk) 11:27, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Support Why not?! Mascots are a fun edition to the wiki. BaldiBasicsFan (talk) 01:48, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
Support I remember this on its Discord server. I'm sure that we will love them. FeMC/Minako Arisato (talk) 17:14, 27 December 2022 (UTC)
Support Vivi or Jeff. I would not rush through implementation in case anyone identifies potential improvements to make them better: it took a while for me to make the new Guidance templates work. --Pingu (talk) 16:06, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
Support that is scientifically proven to be achivable by the human race. Yes, Yes, Yes, Yes. you don't understand how much i want Dis. i absolutely love all the characther designs here. i need Dis so much in my life tmsl (talk) 20:29, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
Abstain
Abstain This is ultimately not for me to be honest. I like the Vivi design the most. It's cool, but for a wiki about archival, this really benefits a community aspect than a wiki one. --Edc4 (talk) 03:02, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Oppose
Oppose I don't understand the need for mascots. We were fine without them to begin with. IAmThe789Guy (talk) 01:57, 26 December 2022 (UTC) IAmThe789Guy
Oppose They add absolutely nothing to the wiki. I'm so glad that I'm not the only who actually realises this.
(name change coming soon) 02:28, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Oppose I honestly don't see the point of this. The inclusion of mascots are not essential at all IMO Jet Dzhet (talk) 06:38, 28 December 2022 (UTC)
- I myself find them perfect for showing our fun side, that we have more personality beyond professionalism.

- Branding and Personality

Oppose don't, it's unprofessional and god knows what the community will do to these mascots. if we REALLY need mascots for whatever reason use something else Etruongs7 (talk) 17:27, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- "use something else" ...like what NancerAVID (talk) 17:49, 30 December 2022 (UTC)
- How are mascots inherently unprofessional? And what's wrong with these guys?

- How is it unprofessional. And where is your reasoning?

Comments
Comment: Of course I know what they look like already, but can you send images so others will at the very least know what they look like? Compooper (talk) 01:29, 26 December 2022 (UTC)
Comment: For people who want to know what these mascots look like, here are some pictures of the ones mentioned: Ace, Vivi, and Jeff the Tree Frog. Camenati (talk) 01:52, 26 December 2022 (UTC)

Comment: i made logos for them

Comment: Wait how is the font for the Ace text in the same font as the AVID icon. And Ace looks a lot like the AVID icon
22:45, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
Comment: We should have a little page to introduce the mascots
