Welcome to WikiProject Digimon (WP:DIGI for short), a WikProject that aims to organize, expand, clean up, and guide Digimon related articles on Wikipedia. If you would like to participate, you can simply start by editing any Digimon article, or join the project below and/or contribute to the discussion on the talk page. Be sure to also check out the to-do list for some of the project's ongoing tasks.
If you find or contribute to a Digimon article, please paste {{WikiProject DIGI}} onto the article's talk page, if it is not already there.
You may also be interested in joining our parent project, WikiProject Anime and manga, which is dedicated to all anime and manga articles on Wikipedia.

A list of participants can be found at Category:WikiProject Digimon participants.
Technically speaking, anyone who edits / contributes to Digimon articles is a participant, and there are no requirements other than that. If one wishes they can further identify themselves with the project by listing their name as a participant. This helps spread the word about the project and can help other editors see what types of articles that user is interested in editing.
To add yourself to the project listing add the following to your user page:
[[Category:WikiProject Digimon participants|{{subst:PAGENAME}}]]
Or, if you wish to use the userbox, add {{User WP DIGI}} to your user page instead as it includes the above wikicode.
And then read the welcome message.

[edit] Commentary, reviews, etc
Creator commentary:
- DigimonTamers Resources Digimon Tamers head writer Chiaki J. Konaka's production notes.
General reviews:
Digimon's relation to Pokémon:
- Getting 'Digi' with it: Differences between Digimon and Pokemon movies, Worcester Polytechnic Institute student newspapers.
- Game-based cartoons through the years not sure what to think of this one. Seems to be written without taking in account the Japanese back stories of the respective anime.
