Maplestory Pictures
Hey, do you know how to import pictures into the pages? Don't worry, its just screenshots of the actual game on my account, not copywrited from others. --Narutofanz 00:11, 4 September 2007 (CDT)

Pokemon Mystery Dungeon/Walkthrough
I see. Great example ^_^ BTW, the page length for Pokemon Mystery dungeon isn't the problem; the problem is the fact that it's a separate strategy for a section, putting it out of context. Myth (talk)

Super Powers
We really need a guide page for this, but like, how do I ban? --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 01:31, 30 June 2007 (CDT)

Uploading images
Every time I upload the image it says the Source Filename's wrong. But I copied it every way it appears. Know what's wrong? Myth (talk) 12:50, 2 July 2007 (CDT)


 * Never mind. I browsed the image and got it uploaded. Thanks! --Myth (talk) 13:04, 2 July 2007 (CDT)13:03, 2 July 2007 (CDT)

Pac-Man Fever
Hi Prod. I was going to make a page for the PMF category just to explain what it was. I realize it's a little out of scope. What did you have in mind for a template? (I'm also trying to contact you on AIM at this very moment.) Procyon (Talk) 21:44, 2 July 2007 (CDT)

Final Fantasy X
I've been playing this game again, and I wanted to contribute to the guide of it here, but the bits of the guide that already exist aren't that good, in my opinion. I was just wondering if I should go ahead and rewrite large parts of it, since there are spoilers that shouldn't really be in there, and there's a lot of stuff elsewhere in the guide that's either wrong or in the wrong place. I've asked Kyron (I think that's his username) if I could but I haven't got a response from him, so I was just asking. --MutantJones 3 June, 2007 17:39

Release dates
Since there's a sort of half-consensus on the new release date stuff, do you think we should go ahead and start implementing it? --DrBob (Talk) 07:39, 7 July 2007 (CDT)

StarCraft units
Hey Prod, do you think it's a better idea to do something like the top of this or to just slap on expansion units to the original units page and say "Brood War only"? I'd prefer to do the latter, but since the main game and expansion are two different articles, maybe Brood War should have the new units page. Thanks! Baejung92 13:40, 20 July 2007 (CDT)

Advertising Agency?
Wait what? I thought we were just writing guides. Like, we have a guide for Peasant's Quest. Why is that any more of a game than O!D!J?

I dunno, I think if it's a worthwhile, quality game, there shouldn't be any reason we shouldn't allow it. I say that if it's a game not blam worthy, we should give it a chance.

I'm not going to take any action towards ODJ or many other games, but I mean, I created Heli Attack 3 a while back and now I'm worried that it's going to be deleted or something. Cmon!

Oh well. I'm level 11 now w00t! --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 23:03, 26 July 2007 (CDT)

Yoshi 64 help!
I need help getting rid of the mistake at the bottom of this Chart. Can someone fix it and hand it back to me, please.--Yoshi 64 15:07, 27 July 2007 (CDT)
 * I'm removing the actual table, please just link to the page instead of pasting all the wikicode. Check the history on this page for a fix by Ryan. -- Prod (Talk) 17:34, 27 July 2007 (CDT)

Thanks
Thankyou for your bit on the Military Madness/Passwords. As like all wikis strategy wiki survives on teamwork and you helped improved the page as compared to the original page that i started Richardson j 18:15, 31 July 2007 (CDT)

Vandalized
There's a vandal on the loose (your "What I Do" table's a victim). I know one of you sysops will kick him out eventually, but is there something a normal contributor like myself should do in these cases? Baejung92 20:11, 1 August 2007 (CDT)
 * Try not to give anyone any ideas xD --Notmyhandle (talk • contribs) 23:09, 1 August 2007 (CDT)
 * What about instead of going on a deletion rampage the moment you get sysopness, wait to get bureaucrat status, learn the database password, THEN go on a deletion rampage and proceed to use Special:Lockdb to prevent anyone from reverting it. Of course, do the Main Page last, as it is the one with highest visibility. -- 08:34, 2 August 2007 (CDT)

Could you get on IRC please? I would like to talk to you about some stuff. --DrBob (Talk) 17:26, 8 August 2007 (CDT)

Resetting CSS
I'm using a custom CSS so the table headers (!) are blue; but after seeing the system browser look like shit, I'm inclined to revert to default settings. First of all, what is the file I need to edit? User:Notmyhandle/bluecloud.css ?? (From preview, that looks like a no.) Secondly, there's probably a history on that page so I'll be able to revert easily... so I won't ask how unless I run into a brick wall. -- 12:54, 11 August 2007 (CDT)

FFVI Chapters
I don't think the game is seperated into chapters at all in the first place. It seems to me to be fairly arbitrary based on good turning points in the game... I'd say do what you think is right.-- Duke Ruckley  21:36, 12 August 2007 (CDT)

Series categories
I can't remember such a consensus, and I think it makes more sense to just categorise by the game's actual series, then make sure the series is visible. You might want to bring it up in CI if you're sure there was some sort of discussion about it before. -- 04:00, 18 August 2007 (CDT)

Half-Life
Alright, I added some intro text to the pages, similar to Link to the Past and Pokémon RBY. I think it looks better, but I think I'll change the title from the first header on the Anomalous Materials page. --Antaios 21:42, 20 August 2007 (CDT)

Category:Pokémon GSC maps
Why'd you flag this for renaming? What's wrong with the name as is? -- DrGaellon (talk | contribs) 09:14, 22 August 2007 (CDT)

Thank you
Thanks Prod. That's what I get for editing late at night :P Procyon (Talk) 10:39, 25 August 2007 (CDT)

"Extra things I added"
I'm guessing you were referring to the #nav_right div.desc a.new { background-color: transparent; } and the #nav_right div.desc a.new:hover { background-color: transparent; }. That was a bug fix for the article tags (such as wip). The redlinks in the box that appears when you hover over the tag had the same red background as the red discussion link, and hovering over said redlinks made the background redder. Those two lines of code were to prevent that from happening. -- 15:22, 29 August 2007 (CDT)

Auto Prod Bot
Being the overly resourceful person I am, the shortcut to AWB on User:Auto Prod Bot has never existed. The correct shorcuts are WP:AWB and WP:AUTOWB. Have a good day :) --Charitwo 10:34, 2 September 2007 (CDT)

Can you please delete my user talk page and start it over with your bots comment, it's already been tarnished twice in one week, not a good start! :( -- 18:55, 2 September 2007 (CDT)

Page Titles
I have basically finished the walkthroughs, renamed the missions and am getting ready to do cleanup from when I first started, as I feel I have a bit more of a basic 'format' feel of things now.

I have one idea about naming the missions, and wanted your opinion. When I am working on things, I see the mission titles like "Blue Angel" and I have to make extra efforts to remind myself what mission it is, China, USA, GLA and then what number the mission is. I know I can default to the Table of Contents, but just looking at the page I feel lost.

What do you think of this page-naming concept...do you think it is too much information???

CHI-1 The Dragon Reborn  or China 1. The Dragon Reborn USA-1 Blue Angel GLA-3 Flood of Chaos or at least: 1. The Dragon Reborn 2. Chaos Factor

thanks...Karlcsr 18:26, 11 September 2007 (CDT)

StarCraft
That looks awesome, thanks! I might discover something problematic later on, but as of now I can't see anything that would be. Would the Alternate Strategy section from some missions be added in the same way as it is now? Baejung92 16:58, 13 September 2007 (CDT)
 * By the way, there's a typo, it should read "Difficulty" not "Difficult". Baejung92 17:45, 13 September 2007 (CDT)
 * StarCraft/Terran mission 10: The Hammer Falls has two alternate strategies down at the bottom, with small headings describing what they're about (no, the headings aren't necessary, I just put them in there for the heck of it).
 * OK there's a problem. There are pages that have Special Structures (StarCraft/Terran mission 2: Backwater Station), and the template has no room for that. Baejung92 12:24, 15 September 2007 (CDT)

China page
I'm not sure what to do with this, up to this point each area on the World Tour corresponded to one version. Now there are two Chinese options, and that sort of messes up the way we've been ordering it. Right now, it seems to be sorted by version. We could also split it by continent, but the possibility exists that these two separate areas may in the future be linked by a rumored "5th chinese town" to make a walking path and show that it is in fact 1 continent.

I guess right now what I want to do is split it so that it's by continent. That would give 6 options there, but the page titles would need to change and that requires a move. the TOC would say "Zipangu" Instead of Japan, "Formosa" instead of Taiwan, "Dong Fang Shen Zhou" and "Shaolin Monastery" instead of China, "Siam" instead of Thailand, and Singapore would remain the same. The only problem with this is that it messes up all the links... So what should we do about this?--IsaacGS 00:35, 16 September 2007 (CDT)
 * So just split the China page into two? That sounds like the best option, and it has the least effect on existing links. It's just that a lot of people were getting confused by the way it is, thinking there was like 5 towns released at once.--IsaacGS 22:51, 17 September 2007 (CDT)
