Nomination for sys admin
Hello Paco. I talked it over with Prod, and we both agreed that you should be nominated for a sys admin position. You are not obligated to accept this nomination, but please let us know whether you do or do not accept it on your nomination page. If you do accept, please answer the three questions, and it will go to a community vote. Whether you accept or not, thank you very much for all of your hard work.

Tables in spoilers
You can absolutely add a table into a spoiler. But you need to use the ! template whenever you mean |, and you need to add a new line before the start of the table. So it would look like: It's a little ugly, but that will result in:

Links on your user page
You can add links to third party sites on your user page. Just don't turn your page into a giant advertisement or something. -- 17:43, 15 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Is it fine like this? or should i remove it again? Paco (talk) 19:05, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Yes. Btw, we could use those maps, too! -- 19:42, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

Ultima VII changes
Hi Paco. Is there an ending sequence when you beat the game? Can you add info regarding the ending to a new section on Ultima VII Part Two: Serpent Isle/Sunrise Isle? Thanks. Btw, grats on CS4. Let's get it featured! -- 18:00, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * There is one. I have now added some Info on it as you requested. Anymore Question on U7 SI and SS? And don't forget to make Silver Seed featured either. Paco (talk) 19:05, 17 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Great! I will ask more questions as I begin to review the content. It looks like you're done, so I will start on that soon. -- 19:42, 17 May 2012 (UTC)

Dragon Warrior 3
On the enemies page, make sure you explain what the names in parenthesis means. If it refers to alternate names depending on versions of the game (e.g. console specific names), describe which versions of the game have which names. Thanks. -- 06:31, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
 * so wrote it on enemies page. Paco (talk) 11:32, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Hey Paco. Just wanted to thank you very much for expanding ont he DW3 guide.  The only thing I ask is that you please make sure it is clear to the reader whether the information you are adding refers only to the original NES version of the game, or the SNES and GBC remakes, since things were tweaked between the two.  If it's common info for both versions, there's no need to specify.   Pro  cyon  21:12, 19 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Well, for the most Enemies it's the same, but often with different Names. example: Gas Cloud has Vitality Seed for NES, but on SNES it's Stamina Seed, but both Names is the same. There are some exception on SNES of which Enemies drop totally different Things. I will first list the Drop on NES only and compare it with SNES and GBC later. Paco (talk) 08:04, 20 May 2012 (UTC)

Version Difference
I also have a Question about SNES-Version (I haven't played the GBC-Version yet, so i don't know about it). How is supposed to add Dragon Quest 3 Details to Dragon Warrior III Page? Though the Story is the same, DQ3 have alot more treasure and new Stuff (Pachisi Track and sometimes even different Treasures (I should know, since i mapped the Game 2 Years ago). Should be a Dragon Quest 3 (SNES) Page be created? or add one more Walkthrough on Dragon Warrior III for SNES and GBC or how should that be done? Paco (talk) 08:04, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
 * No, we definitely don't want to split the guide apart into two guides. So much of the content is identical.  The best thing to do is to create an extra page like Dragon Warrior III/Remake differences that summarizes all of the changes that were made between versions, like the dream introductions, extra items in draws, Pachisi tracks, extra dungeon, etc.  Then, when these changes occur throughout the walkthrough, use a sidebar template to explain what they are.  In some cases, it will be necessary to make a whole new page, like the dream sequences.  The Pachisi tracks should probably get an appendix page that you can point to when they would be found in the walkthrough.  Use your best judgment.  If it's something you can write a small comment on, use a sidebar.  If it's something very large, give it its own page.  We have a few examples of games that have been given this kind of treatment.  The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past is one game I can think of off the top of my head.   Pro  cyon  13:41, 20 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the Suggestion. I will keep it in Mind. Paco (talk) 12:18, 21 May 2012 (UTC)

Please see this diff
See here. What is the remix version of the game? You said it can be done in the remix version but you didn't put a note in, so I did. Is this correct? -- 07:03, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, that is correct. With Remix Version i mean the SNES-Version which i played (didn't play the GBC-Version, so i don't know if it's the same there). I removed it again because i wanted to retry it in SNES/GBC to confirm it and then readd it in a Sidebar pointing out the Difference to NES like Procyon suggested. Paco (talk) 12:18, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
 * We should leave the info in, in case you never do it. Should I change "Remix" to "SNES/GBC"? -- 16:28, 21 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Nah, just leave it be and i said it already that i don't know how it's on GBC.Paco (talk) 10:11, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Enemy details
Hi Paco, for Kandar Henchman, what does 60/120 mean? 60 out of a maximum of 120 HP? Can they heal or something? Also, have you checked any version item drop differences? Perhaps they are the same between the three games? Oh, and what did you mean by your last edit summary: "please check Kandar NES pic and swap to SNES Pic. It overlap with the table"? I see the Kandar pic displays just fine. -- 16:31, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * I looked into the overlap issue. It seems to be a bug in our code; ignore that for now. -- 16:41, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Kandar Henchman is a Sub-Boss that show up 3x in Game. Once in Tower of Shampane with Kandar. At that time, they have only 60 HP and give 80 Exp. They show up later in game again, but stronger than before so it's at 120 HP now and also give more Exp. In other words: There is 2 different Kandar Henchman, one with 60 HP and one with 120 HP. I can look it up on Gamefaqs on Enemy Drops and add it on Enemy-Guide, but i refer to add Info i experienced for myself. This way the List will be accurate. The items are mostly the same between NES and Remix, but as i said to Prod up there under Dragon Warrior 3, even though some drop is the exact same yet have different names (Magic Knife/Sacred Knife, Vitality Seed/Stamina Seed, etc). and thanks for looking in the Overlap Bug. Paco (talk) 18:45, 24 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Yeah, no problem! I want to get the page working correctly. The issue is appearing here because we rarely deal with control and images.  As far as Kandar Henchman issue goes, we should probably create a separate monster and note the location, simply because in the game it is a different enemy (same name, same image, but in the programming it is probably separate).  Also, if a monster, like the henchmen, appear only with certain other monsters, we should note that in the notes sections because we can add a link to the page for easy navigation (this is important if, say, an enemy with an "A" name is grouped with a monster with a "Z" name, so readers do not have to scroll). -- 20:28, 24 May 2012 (UTC)

Hi Paco, can you help me verify the SNES name for Black Raven? Is it just Raven? Or is it also Black Raven? Other online sources haven't been very helpful. -- 19:46, 29 May 2012 (UTC)
 * Black Raven SNES name
 * seems like it's the same on SNES and on GBC seems to be just Raven. just ignore it for now. i will replay both Versions someday (i have to map the GBC-Version) and add/edit info on the Enemies-list. Paco (talk) 20:19, 29 May 2012 (UTC)

I'm just getting the page filled in. Adjusting minor details/names can be done later. One thing I just found out: there are no English SNES names... Lol. It was only released in Japan, did you notice that? I think the GBC and SNES images are the same, too, but you'll have to check on that before we overhaul everything again. Some things I found: Slime Snail is the NES name, not Slime Snaii. The GBC name for Lethal Armor is Killarmor. Also: can you check to see if enemy names are in all caps? I would suggest starting a Todo/checklist for each monster. Thanks, -- 18:53, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
 * NES uploads
 * But there is no need to hurry. I will upload all of it, but that takes some times. I knew that with SNES, since i played it soon after the Translation Patch for it came out. ^^ Slime Snaii is the Name in US-Version, probably a Translation-error but neverthless it's Snaii no Snail. The Pics i'm uploading for DW3 is exactly the same as it show up in Game. Paco (talk) 18:59, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
 * Alright, I'm done for now. Another issue: Skelegon/Skullgon/Scalgon? You'll have to look into that enemy/naming. It's odd.  For Slime Snail, are you talking about Slime Snaii being the US name for the SNES translated version? How are you playing a SNES translation with a patch? On a ROM? Those are not official names... -- 19:21, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
 * seems its Scalgon for NES ans Skullgon for SNES/GBC. No, i am talking about the American Dragon Warrior 3 US NES etc Version which i'm currently playing to capture the Monster-Pic and confirming the Location/Drop/etc for NES. yup, applying the Patch to a Jap Rom and the Game is in English completely. ^^

yeah, but better than nothing... Paco (talk) 19:31, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
 * That's fine, but any English SNES name is invalid; since it doesn't actually exist (unless the Japanese SNES name is the same as the Japanese NES or GBC name). All the SNES names should be in Japanese, then. I can adjust the template to use the GBC name, which would be more accurate. See Talk:Dragon Warrior III/Enemies where we can add to our todo list. Also see your contributions for all your uploads. -- 19:37, 2 June 2012 (UTC)
