:OK, one more comment on this. If "Sapient" or "Intelligent Species" doesn't work for everyone, I'd like to direct your attention to the [[Metroid Prime 2: Echoes Bonus Disc Logbook]]. It's set up a little differently from the regular logbook. The [[Ing]] and [[Space Pirate]]s are filed away under "Sentient" whereas the other creatures are not. Even though this doesn't reflect the full scope of the word as some use it, apparently, in the ''Metroid'' universe, "Sentient" is limited to intelligent, self-aware, organized species. Some Sci-Fi series will use the word this way, like ''Star Trek'', so I guess this isn't surprising. So I'd actually support any of those three suggestions, in light of this: ''Sapient'', ''Intelligent Species'', or ''Sentient''. {{:User:Embyr_75/sig}} 00:56, 16 August 2013 (UTC) | :OK, one more comment on this.

::Sapient works for me. Probably the best fitting of the names. {{:User:Metroidking/sig}} 18:36, 16 August 2013 (UTC) | |||

:::All of this is true. If we can at least borrow their content rather than the whole community, then everything would be fine. This is what happened when the Wikia wiki Animal Crossing City merged into Nookipedia. Some users moved, and all content was merged into Nookipedia even though the original wiki still exists. If possible, that's all that can be done. {{:User:Wookiee123/sig}} 15:06, 14 August 2013 (UTC) | :::All of this is true.

::::Borrowing content would be big no no. And like I thought, their community didn't want to go for it anyway. In any case I'd rather work on the content ourselves, even if it takes years it'll be more satisfying. {{:User:Metroidking/sig}} 18:36, 16 August 2013 (UTC) | |||
