Mega Man Zero 2 forms
I see you restored the "stars" on Mega Man Zero 2/Forms. I've reverted it back to the version with the progress bars, as the "stars" don't work, and unless there's a compelling reason why stars should be used over progress bars (for example, the stars might have some deep meaning in the game — I don't know), I would ask you to not revert back. Using progress bars is cleaner than "stars". Leave a message on my talk page if you have any thoughts. --DrBob (talk) 06:51, 2 December 2007 (CST)

Tests
I noticed your tests on the Super Smash Bros. Brawl/Move Lists/Link page. Please try to use the Sandbox for any tests. If someone happens to visit the page while you are doing tests, they may not get the content they are expecting. Also, using the "Show Preview" button will allow you to see what the page would look like, without affecting the "live" version of the page. Finally, if you need any templating help, leave me a message with the problem you're having. Happy editing! :) -- Prod (Talk) 19:49, 9 February 2008 (CST)
 * Is the problem that the bottom templates don't show up properly (just links to the template rather than actually doing the replace)? If yes, than I'm already aware of the problem and it's on my todo list to fix.  I may get around to it in a about a week or so (hopefully sooner though). If you want to try and fix it, the problem is that the template is far too long.
 * Of course, if it's a different problem, let me know what it is and I'll look into it sooner. -- Prod (Talk) 00:56, 10 February 2008 (CST)
 * I think the templates are working properly now. I checked some that seemed to be the biggest offenders, and they're working properly now.  Let me know if you have any further problems. -- Prod (Talk) 13:59, 28 February 2008 (CST)

Smash Bros moves template
Hi Wanderer. I noticed the work you've been doing on the moves template. While I agree that it's a great idea, you've got to try to reduce the complexity of it substantially. I understand precisely what you're trying to do, but you're running up against hard limits of the template functionality, and it's becoming very impractical as the number of inputs you try to express increases. While I admire your determination to make the template extremely easy to use, I think you may have to aim a little lower, and accept the fact that authors may have to deal with a little more typing and copy/pasting. Believe me, as the guy who did the majority of the Capcom fighting game move lists, I know what it's like. A little extra typing won't hurt anyone. :) Anyway, Prod mentioned that he would like to help you out.  He was integral to the fighting game reorganization project, and I'm sure that you will find his help invaluable as well.  Take care.  Procyon (Talk) 22:11, 14 February 2008 (CST)

Uncharted: Drake's Fortune/Trophies
Why do you think it's necessary that we start adding categories to subpages? I think it seems a bit pointless, as I doubt someone is going to search a certain category for something such as trophies or anything else for that matter. If people want to find trophies for a certain game: they can use the table of contents. RobJ1981 01:53, 23 August 2008 (CDT)

Mario Kart Wii controls.
I know your good reason for keeping the controls. But I have a good feeling you haven't even tried out the controls. I have a few questions. Do you own a Mario Kart Wii? If you do, have you tried out the controls? You want to retain the table, than prove to me that you tried out the controls. I did a thorough check and there's no mistake.

 * Also you should never jump to conclusions. I do still find it hard to distinguish between the Wheel+Remote and Remote+Nunchuk. Johnnyauau2000 07:38, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Lastly, why don't you prove to me you can smash down the platform on the Super Smash Bros Brawl. Johnnyauau2000 07:53, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
 * Yes I do in fact own Super Smash Bros Brawl and Mario Kart Wii and I do play those games a lot. I know too well that maybe you're right about it but I do like to keep it simple. I don't want to dispute over a table on Mario Kart Wii about using the A,B buttons and 1,2 buttons. Same with the Super Smash Bros Brawl about smashing down the platform. I mean you have to slam down the control stick or dpad down. You should understand what I'm saying. So anyway, you win on this one but I wish there's a better way of doing this. By the way, I go by playing the game and I only use the instructions manual whenever I have trouble with the games. Johnnyauau2000 00:22, 3 November 2008 (UTC)

Move lists pages
Hey, I changed the moves list setup you had on the MK vs. DC guide. The actual moves list should go on a page directly subpaged from the main guide, and then it gets transcluded onto the main moves list page along with all the other characters, and onto the character page. So the page you made goes at Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe/Superman, then gets transcluded onto Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe/Characters/Superman and Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe/Moves. On the actual moves list page (the one you made) the Header Nav gets tags, and there is no Footer Nav or category. On the character page, it gets a Footer Nav and the Character move lists category. Here are the two pages so you can see: moves page and character page.

By the way, do you have any interest in becoming a Rollbacker? If so, I'd like to nominate you, since you do a lot of cleanup and your edits are always top notch. I'll be watching your talk page, if you want to respond here. Thanks, - najzere T 05:15, 13 May 2009 (UTC)


 * Sure, okay. Why not. Wanderer 01:24, 14 May 2009 (UTC)
