::Personally, I think it would be easiest to have a Petz category for all of the Petz games (like we mentioned below).  We also need to have a disambiguation page that explains the naming system of all the guides.  Maybe that's where a category for Dogz and such comes into play.  As long as we make it easy for users to find which guide they really want, we're okay.--'''[[User:Dukeruckley|<font color="blue">Duke</font><font color="red">Ruckley</font>]]<sup><small>[[User_talk:Dukeruckley|Talk]] <nowiki>|</nowiki> [[Special:Contributions/Dukeruckley|Contribs]]</small></sup>''' 15:30, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

The games in what Najzere called the 'Petz Rescue' sub-series for Petz aren't actually in the Petz series. They are in the series 'Planet Rescue' which, if you look on the [http://planetrescue.uk.ubi.com/games/ Planet Reasue website], is a series of different games. I think the confusion was that they are both by Ubisoft. --[[User:Melon247|<font color="red">Me</font><font color="green">lon</font>]][[User_talk:Melon247|<font color="orange">2</font><font color="purple">4</font><font color="blue">7</font>]] 10:19, 1 February 2009 (UTC)

:I think I just saw the american website and they seem to be in the petz series there. What are we going to do now because in the uk they're not in the Petz series and in the UK they are. Maybe we should just have a seperate series for Petz Rescue/Planet Rescue. --[[User:Melon247|<font color="red">Me</font><font color="green">lon</font>]][[User_talk:Melon247|<font color="orange">2</font><font color="purple">4</font><font color="blue">7</font>]] 13:40, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

I just found out that My Puppy Family and Petz Dogz Pack are the same games. I was looking on Google for Catz images and I found a link to a new Petz website. Unfortunately I didn't make a note of the address or anything. But I saw a video of it and a very simular video is on the petz website that I'd seen before. --[[User:Melon247|<font color="red">Me</font><font color="green">lon</font>]][[User_talk:Melon247|<font color="orange">2</font><font color="purple">4</font><font color="blue">7</font>]] 13:33, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

== The Merging ==
How about we have sub-categories for the games, but the info on those pages will ''also'' be on the Petz category. And also, how about adding <nowiki>[[Category:Petz]]</nowiki> to all games in the Petz series? Because why should they all be in their sub-serieses and not in the main one? If they're in both, then that's problem solved, and people won't be as confused --[[User:Melon247|<font color="red">Me</font><font color="green">lon</font>]][[User_talk:Melon247|<font color="orange">2</font><font color="purple">4</font><font color="blue">7</font>]] 12:52, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
:Currently we only put the most immediate series on games, because the series is in turn picked up by the parent series. I'm for keeping the sub-series separate from the Petz category because I think it's more helpful to users who like the game they're playing and want to find another one most like it. As for the information, a one to two sentence blurb on the Petz page should be sufficient, while the bulk of the information (if there ever is any) should go on the individual sub-series category pages. That's what makes most sense to me anyway. - [[User:Najzere|'''naj''']][[User_talk:Najzere|<font color="green">zere</font>]] 15:45, 20 February 2009 (UTC)
== Categories ==
With the games that are basically under "other" in the Petz series or similar, should we just put the series as Petz? For example, under the Wanted Categories bit I saw a Monkeyz category. There are two games in it; [[Petz: Monkey Madness]] and [[Petz: Crazy Monkeyz]]. The only page that links to it is the page it's on ([[Petz: Monkey Madness]]). Also there are other games such as Bunnyz (currently in the Petz category anyway) and Petz: Vet which don't go in their own series since they're the only games that would be in there. {{User:Melon247/My sig}} 09:36, 4 April 2009 (UTC)
:[[:Category:Mario]] does it, so why not Petz. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 01:23, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
::Should we have all the games here or just the ones that don't fit under Dogz, Catz, Hamsterz, etc.? I mean, we could easily just add Category:Petz to the Petz template (in an includeonly tag, I should think). {{User:Melon247/My sig}} 12:53, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
:::It's best how they are right now with games in the most specific category. It's redundant to categorize a game by its series and by its series' parent series. - [[User:Najzere|<span style="color:#909090">najzere</span>]]<sup>[[User talk:Najzere|<span style="color:#993300">T</span>]]</sup> 15:16, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
== Petz Category split ==
Was the PC Petz category decided upon or created?  If a decision was made, the category should be set up and links created, even if we don't have the actual games that belong. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 01:57, 17 October 2009 (UTC)
