Clash of Ninja 2
I want to propose something about that CoN2 guide, and since you were the one that changed the level, I figure you know what you're doing. Is the sub-ToC really necessary? Strategies for the characters can be added on those characters' pages (especially considering how their move sets remain largely unchanged throughout the series) and dividing the game into story chapters really isn't necessary. The story mode is essentially Street Fighter with a bunch of text in between fights. The only major difference is the fights aren't randomized, and I'm not sure if that's enough to warrant having strategies down on every single chapter. The only basic strategy I can think of is beat the crap out of your opponent. :P I don't think each battle requires a strategy. A game like Ultimate Ninja Storm 2, where the bosses change phases throughout the battles after a bunch of QTEs, would need strategies for each chapter. Clash of Ninja 2 is just your average fighting game. Tell me what you think. :) -- Wario Talk 17:11, 26 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Sorry my response is so late. Between a defective computer and final exams, I couldn't respond as soon as I would have liked. Story mode strategies in one page sounds fine to me. I would think shared strategy pages could work (move lists don't change much across the games in the series - some combos from the Clash of Ninja games are even usable in the Ultimate Ninja Storm games) mostly because of the limited techniques available to the characters at that point in the manga/anime series (which would be built on in later games and added to the page), but if that isn't enough, strategy pages specifically for Clash of Ninja 2 could be done I guess. Now that my summer vacation is here, I'm free to work on the guide, but I want to finish the God of War guide first. That one is long overdue. -- Wario Talk 21:50, 22 June 2012 (UTC)

Welcome back
Hey NMH, good to see you back. How was your vacation? Did you go anywhere cool?  Pro cyon  01:15, 18 August 2012 (UTC)


 * Awesome! I drove almost 1000 miles in less than a week; spent four days at this place: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=H8YGTpglby8 -- 04:45, 18 August 2012 (UTC)

It's just because in English you would say e.g. "Healing Mage", but for sorting purpose I swapped the two words e.g. "Mage, Healing–": this way, when you sort the table you get all the mages listed near each other. The hypen is the same as writing "Legend of Zelda, The–", I simply followed a grammar rule, but I think the table can be understood even without hypens. --Abacos (talk) 12:05, 23 August 2012 (UTC)

Captcha problem
Hello Notmyhandle. Thank you for the welcome. I am trying to edit a page and it is giving me the cat captcha, but there is no submit button to continue on after selecting the cats. It worked just fine earlier when I created my account. I am using Firefox. Is there anything that I can do to get it working again? Thanks. Korrun (talk) 17:50, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

Yes I am. Korrun (talk) 18:03, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

I understand the reason. It won't let me continue from the captcha. There is no submit button near the cats and if I click on save page again it just reloads new cats. If I select all of the cats (and no dogs) nothing happens and there is no button to click to continue. Korrun (talk) 18:08, 26 August 2012 (UTC)

I tried a link to wikipedia, so I don't think that it is an issue with the specific websites. These are the links I am trying to add:

heading: External links
 * [sc-room.stellar-crisis.net Stellar Crisis Room - Main hub for Stellar Crisis information]
 * [sc-room.stellar-crisis.net/SC.howtointro.html Stellar Crisis Room - Beginner's Guide and Tutorial]
 * [erick.freeshell.org/sc/ Aggie Land's Stellar Crisis - Fan site with information and strategy guides
 * [falcon.almonaster.net/ Almonaster - Server hosting another version of Stellar Crisis]

Thanks! Removing some of the links later makes sense. They could be useful to refer to while it is in development. Korrun (talk) 18:51, 26 August 2012 (UTC)
 * It's a problem specific to IE8/9. Apparently a fix is in the works: http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Thread:Extension_talk:ConfirmEdit/Asirra_not_passing. -- Prod (talk) 05:46, 27 August 2012 (UTC)

Yet another thank you
Hey man, been noticing how much effort you've been putting into reorganizing and cleaning up many of the less well organized guides, and I just want to thank you for all the hard work.  Pro cyon  05:16, 30 August 2012 (UTC)
 * Lol, don't worry about me, I'm just on my honeymoon. Had to promise the wifey that I'd keep the internet stuff down to a minimum for the week. ;)  Of course, being blocked at work now doesn't help either :P  Pro  cyon  14:44, 30 August 2012 (UTC)

Soul Blazer
I did thought of notwide, but even with it there is too many black border/"space" there, so notwide is not the solution i seek. There must be something else to solve it. Paco (talk) 18:44, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Having two major columns side by side is causing our browsers not to make it appear correctly. I found a solution and re-ordered the weapons to match their locations in the inventory screenshot at the top. Also: avoid floating the image; by removing "|left" it reduced the bottom margin by a couple of pixels. The additional div that the float causes has a buffer that we can't adjust. -- 19:28, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Final Fantasy/Armor
Hi Notmyhandle. Sorry but I'm not sure what you're talking about. I didn't change any name on the page, just reorganized the tables. In fact, I'm re-playing the video game in French, and therefore English names are not my concern. --Abacos (talk) 19:45, 3 September 2012 (UTC)
 * Anyway, I'd like to add the party that I'm using (and I think it's a great party for magic users like me: Monk, Red Mage, White Mage, Black Mage), but I'm not sure how to grade the various attributes. --Abacos (talk) 19:45, 3 September 2012 (UTC)

Hi. About weapons and armors, I think there is a separate "NES name" line because the remakes for PSX and GBA are way more popular today. I think the matter could be settled just writing this at the top of the page. About parties, I wrote the ratings just by checking the parties similar to mine, at least it is coherent with the rest of the page. I think someday I'll rewrite the page adding first of all a Character Class Triangle diagram, and then listing just few short guidelines sections, like this: --Abacos (talk) 10:26, 4 September 2012 (UTC)
 * physical-oriented parties;
 * magic-oriented parties (my favourites, but generally avoided by guide writers);
 * balanced parties;
 * parties with two or more identical characters (these are the ones I avoid).

Special characters in names
I think we should try to replicate the game name as closely as possible, within the limits of what mediawiki allows. As long as we have all the appropriate redirects in place, people should find what they're looking for. -- Prod (talk) 04:40, 6 September 2012 (UTC)

Ultima 5 guide
Hi. I just cleared Ultima 5 and got to the end of the walkthrough. Can you give me some suggestion to bring the guide firmly to Completion Stage 3? I created the guide and am the main contributor, but right now I think I need some feedback --Abacos (talk) 11:36, 10 September 2012 (UTC)

Cookies
Hmmmm... that template is long overdue. Perhaps we should create cookie specially for it? -- Prod (talk) 01:59, 11 September 2012 (UTC)
