Motivation

refuge.tokyo (Q110997892) is a Japanese language database of video games from some 25 (retro-)platforms. The data-model is per-platfor realization, and for some platforms they split up the Japanese release and the Western release. Jean-Fred (talk) 14:21, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Discussion

Strong support. Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 22:00, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]
@Jean-Frédéric I wrote the following regular expression: ^(famicom\/|superfamicom\/|nintendo64|gameboy\/|gameboyadvance\/|nintendods\/|virtualboy|virtualboy\/|sg1000|megadrive\/|saturn\/|dreamcast|gamegear|pc9801\/|msx\/|windows|x68k\/|pcengine\/|playstation\/|wonderswan|neogeopocket|neogeopocket\/|gamecom|supervision|jaguar|3do|arcade\/)(fc|sfc|gb|gba|nds|md|ss|pc98|msx|x68000|pce|ps|ac|en)?\/([\d]{5})$, which should cover all possible situations according to this database. I hope I haven't missed anything. Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 22:26, 24 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Although, we can simplify the regex in this way. Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 13:23, 25 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Figured out another issue with the regex I wrote: the backslash is not needed here as it will be detected automatically (see the difference before and after). Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 00:57, 28 February 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for figuring out the regex! I gotta confess I was a bit lazy ;-) Jean-Fred (talk) 20:16, 3 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
