P.S: If you want to top off the controls page, you should use the control templates. Take a look at Twilight Princess' Controls and nab the code there to make it look better. --Arrow Windwhistler (talk) 23:40, 15 January 2010 (UTC)

Images
Hey, thanks for uploading that image and putting an image category on it! I've also added Category:The Legend of Zelda: Spirit Tracks images to it so all Spirit Tracks images are grouped together. Thanks for contributing! :) — najzere T 21:25, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
 * Hi, Image:LoZ-ST Forest Sanctuary.jpg is too low quality for the wiki. Is there any way you can make this map in a graphics program or find a cleaner screenshot? — najzere T 21:49, 18 January 2010 (UTC)

Control selector
Hi, I put the control selector and control usages back into The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time/Ocarina Songs. Please don't remove the control selector functionality from pages; it provides an easy way for users to switch to the controls they use for their platform. If it's not working for you, enable JavaScript in your browser or allow the site if it's currently blocked. Thanks, — najzere T 20:06, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

Collaboration of the Month
Hi, Spirit Tracks is currently on the nomination list for Collaboration of the Month. Just wanted to alert you, in case you didn't know about the page. If it's selected, you may get some additional help with the great job you're doing on the guide. Cheers, :) — najzere T 22:30, 25 January 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!
A little thank you… For working on Spirit Tracks and joining the cleanup crew. , najzere T 17:34, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Spirit Tracks maps
Hey, just wanted to let you know that I have everything from the images saved on different layers, so if you wanted to switch anything out, such as different icons or background or something, it would be doable. Also, we could make image maps out of them so clicking an icon on the map would take a reader to the appropriate section. Just some thoughts. Let me know if you want to change anything! :) — najzere T 20:24, 9 February 2010 (UTC)


 * That's (image maps) a very good idea. Especially with the Spirit Tracks guide, where some place names can be very different, just clicking on the area where you want to find information for can be much easier than looking for a place name and possibly getting thrown off by another region's names. They're used on sites like Zelda Wiki, and it's much clearer than searching for a place name (that, for me, isn't there because they use only American names). It can't do any damage to try it, at least, and I think it could work well. --Moydow 09:00, 10 February 2010 (UTC)


 * ps. Perhaps, if we're going to use a map for the Force Gems page, would it be possible to point out both where to find them and what tracks they reveal, or would that clutter the map? --Moydow 11:51, 10 February 2010 (UTC)
 * That's how I was planning on doing it anyway, so I think it would be okay. Are the positions of the force gem locations on this map accurate? Also, should the force gem icon be yellow, green, or does it depend on the specific gem? — najzere T 16:37, 10 February 2010 (UTC)


 * What you have there shows the locations of which section of tracks each force gem (yellow triangles) reveals. They are all correct. All Force Gems are usually shown with yellow triangles, as with their in-game appearance, and Warp Gates are green triangles on this map, but are generally shown with paired symbols (# at the centre of the Forest Land links to # in the south of the Snow Land, for example). --Moydow 17:00, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

My mistake
I didn't mean to cause trouble. I'm a bit of a perfectionist; it's the little mistakes that get to me. If I see one, I'll pretend it's not there until I can make a bigger edit. --|Superpowered  Mario  20:17, 18 February 2010 (UTC)

Talk page messages
Hi, you should peruse Category:Message templates when you get a chance, as a lot of the things we find ourselves saying over and over have been templated to make it easier on you. Thanks for helping keep new users informed! — najzere T

MultipleUpload
It's an extension we used to have, but the recent versions have been buggy. I'll suggest to either comment it out, or just leave it for now. Hopefully we can re-enable it during the next patch. -- Prod (Talk) 03:34, 18 March 2010 (UTC)

VF Remix
There are some differences in the moves and the character portraits are different. I was thinking of morphing Virtua Fighter PC with Remix though, and make a different moves page for both Remix and PC. --E-123Wario54 23:49, 31 March 2010 (UTC)

"Seen 364, Caught 279"
In your About Me, in the "Records and other stuff" section, you list your Pokédex record to be Seen 364, Caught 279. What version did you accomplish this in? :D -- Imjon 13:01, 18 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Pokémon Diamond. I've also got Ruby, Platinum and HeartGold, so that record is really the combined result of all four versions. It would be virtually impossible for me to catch all 493, with the lack of Events in this country :( so my goal is to just try and complete the Sinnoh Pokédex (150/113 and counting). :)

Category Adding
I really don't understand the category system. Is there any guide adding to or creating categories because if there is I haven't found any as of yet. By the way thanks for adding the images I imported into the categories. User:Zienth

Mega Man Battle Network 6
Thanks for fixing the sprite categories. I appreciate it. :) Teddy(talk) 21:26, 30 May 2010 (UTC)


 * No problem. All in a day's work. Moy  dow  T · C · Boxes 21:33, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Luigi's Mansion maps
Got the first floor one done, see here. I'm hoping to get the other floors done soon-ish. -- 06:30, 1 June 2010 (UTC)
 * K, see here for floor 1, floor 2, floor 3, roof, and basement. All information on the maps should be accurate, including relative location of blue ghosts (aka speedy spirits) and cheeses in regards to the room. Speedy Spirits that must be caught during blackout are marked as such. Let me know if you notice anything that's off. -- 03:31, 3 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Floor 2's been updated, sorry for the delay. -- 20:50, 24 June 2010 (UTC)

Nomination for sysop
Hi Moydow. I'd like to nominate you for sysop status. Do you accept?  Pro cyon  15:09, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Really? Of course, go ahead! Thank you! :D 15:20, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Well, I completely botched setting up your request, but I think I got it right now... Have at it, and thanks for your hard work. Requests for permissions/Moydow  Pro cyon  18:21, 23 June 2010 (UTC)
 * All answered! :) 19:24, 23 June 2010 (UTC)

Congrats :) -- Prod (Talk) 06:26, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Thanks guys! :D 07:15, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * High five! -- 17:55, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * Yeah! :) 18:11, 30 June 2010 (UTC)
 * I love how, within hours of being promoted, you've knocked out this list of things you noticed and wanted to take care of for who knows how long :D  Pro  cyon  18:39, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

I'm a bit late, but congrats anyway! -- 19:49, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Editing Charts
MapleStory/Patches I really don't understand how to edit the charts on these pages. All they lead to is links when ever I go into edit mode. Can you teach me how?--Zienth 22:13, 28 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Ah. I understand it now. Another question, there was a major update in the Korean MS Test Server and I want to be able to display those changes without disrupting the current show of skills.My idea is to use the Template for MapleStory/Skill desc being to separate the the current skills tables from the new ones. What do you think should be done? --Zienth 22:49, 28 June 2010 (UTC)


 * Alright. Thanks for you help anyways.--Zienth 23:27, 28 June 2010 (UTC)

Zelda Redirects
I don't think the 2010 one is much of a problem. Even though it's not perfectly accurate, it's not ambiguous. For the Wii one, perhaps redirect it to the category instead. -- Prod (Talk) 19:04, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!
Hello and thanks for improving my article! — Sheriff James B. McDonald bad guys  21:19, 5 July 2010 (UTC)

Crash Course
I started editing here, to fulfill the partnership aspect between WiKirby and Strategy Wiki. Viewing the two pages I worked on, I see a link "Walkthrough" Could you explain what the differences between the area articles and the walkthrough are meant to be? I'm going to work on the subgame articles next. Well off the top of my head while my DS recharges...But I would appreciate any guidance until I get it down pat. Also thanks again for your work on WiKirby. Axiomist 23:50, 10 July 2010 (UTC)

Mario Tennis.
Thanks. Have you checked the Wii category yet? I can easily find through search, or the N64 category or a link from Mario Power Tennis, or if there's a section called "Wii Virtual Console" which should be on the Wii category above the games list? I suppose from now on that Mario Tennis doesn't exist on "Wii" but in "Wii Virtual Console". I don't mind if you're busy but you might want to double check to be sure that Mario Tennis does exist in N64 and "Wii Virtual Console". I can't express my feelings but I shouldn't be upset about this. You might not understand but I don't want to go to great lengths to find Mario Tennis. Johnnyauau2000 07:04, 22 July 2010 (UTC)

Blocking for inappropriate user name
Make sure to uncheck "Prevent account creation" and "Automatically block the last IP address..." when you block for inappropriate user name, so the editor still has the ability to choose another one. — najzere T 20:59, 25 July 2010 (UTC)

Question from Shoop
Do we delete user pages?
 * Generally, no. Not unless the user in question has a very good reason for requesting its deletion, the user page was created by a vandal, or it contains highly offensive material. 16:02, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Another question from Shoop
How do I become an administrator? If you tell me, than also tell me how do I do the step to become an administraitors.
 * There isn't a specific way to become an administrator. You have to be consistent and a trusted member who contributes a lot to the site. And remember to sign your comments with the four tildes. -- E-123Wario54 The Temple of TalkFFI black mage (8-bit).gif 21:14, 1 August 2010 (UTC)
 * Correct. Only a user who makes the best quality of edits, and shows that they have a good, clear understanding of the site's policies, will be considered for a nomination for administrator. 21:48, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Monster Images
Hi, I play maplestory, I was wondering, if, for all the individual locations, I could add an image of the monster next to it's name,

I have already done so for Rien, Ereve, and Altaire Camp, Hoping that this doesn't change the layout of the pages.

I thought this might of been an idea to go with, particually for those who just want to see what the monster looks like without having to load up a whole page to find the monster they are looking for.

Thanks-rubberband


 * I don't play MapleStory. MMOs like that are incredibly unpopular over here (perhaps due to the lack of decent broadband outside Germany). But personally, I would say that it would be okay as long as it doesn't disrupt the flow and readability of the page. 17:19, 4 August 2010 (UTC)
