I'm trying to find ways to incorporate the product pages along with the new characters.

The reason why is because people who are not familiar with the wiki have previously become concerned or confused when a page has been split between character and product pages (IE: Syo becoming confused when Ruby's History was moved to the Product page). The product pages are not easy for them to find because it's not placed anywhere obvious or eyecatching. I know they can be linked through the "Navigation Templates" down below, but some people don't know that's what links them to the product pages sometimes. I find them often relying on the Status page, the main page (Through the Upcoming template) or on the Navbars at the top of the pages.

I'm not sure if we can incorporate something similar to the Upcoming template, but this is what I'm doing for now on the Status page.

What I tried to do was set up the newcomer's section with "Name of Character" + "Vocaloid Engine". The character would obviously link to the character page, while the engine name links to the product page. This would only be done if we know what engine they're on AND if there's a product page available (which in this case, Unity-chan doesn't have a product page yet because we're still struggling with her, UNI doesn't have enough information and neither does Fukase to warrant a product page nor are they currently active).

For the updates, just a simple "Character name + 'V4'/specific name" would do it. That one is pretty straightforward.

What do you think? Anything to be improved? :o
