Before anyone decides to discuss anything on this new talk page...
...I would just like to make an apology to Prod and Procyon for demanding that they undid the pagemoves they performed on the guide for Namco's first 16-bit game, for not being familiar with the site's official policy for Japanese games being listed under their English names, and for boring them with a "ridiculous" in-depth explanation of two obscure cartoon series that nobody outside of the United Kingdom, Spain, and possibly Australia would care about. I only hope that they can forgive me too! Namcorules 16:00, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
 * NR, it's OK, there's little reason to apologize for all this stuff, but we do appreciate the thought. Naming guides incorrectly, or talking about something you really enjoyed watching are hardly offenses. What Prod and I really want you to understand however, is how to become a better author. When a user comes to our site, seeking advice on how to play a game that you have written about, such as Assault, Beraboh Man, Märchen Maze, Ordyne, Metal Hawk, Splatterhouse, and Valkyrie no Densetsu, and they see a giant wall of text with no images or paragraph breaks, and with untranslated Japanese text, they might say to themselves, "This isn't the kind of help I was looking for, I'll go and look somewhere else." We want them to say, "Wow, this is exactly what I was looking for, I'm going to come back to StrategyWiki every time I need help." That's what we're trying to help you with, to write guides that help the people who visit this site. We haven't banned you because you haven't done anything wrong.  Not listening to our advice isn't really a bannable offense.  But if we do give you advice, it's only because we want to help you, not make your life harder. I hope you'll take all of this to heart.

 * I hope I can take all of this to heart, as the main reason I decided to include Japanese text in the guide for the Valkyrie no Bouken sequel is so any other MAMErs who decide to take a look at it will be able to answer the Nazonazo Phantom and Sphinmoth's multiple-choice questions correctly on the fourth and seventh stages of the game. As I have mentioned in their section on the guide's "Getting Started" page, a knowledge of both main Japanese syllabic writing systems (or a memorization of the questions' answers) is essential to it. I also tried to translate the text with the Google Translator, but it only romanized it. Namcorules 16:01, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
