The only way for you to filter them is by filtering patrolled edits, otherwise the extension would have to be removed. -- 21:51, 2 September 2007 (CDT)

Sources for SSBB
Thank you for your message. Just as you suggested, I am going to edit the article now. When I found the contributors, I realized that neither of them have been active for quite awhile, so it is unlikely they will respond to me.

On a side note, though Snake has not been given a profile on the home page, both the Nintendo World and E3 movies are accesible there and they both introduce him. Spruce 21:45, 12 September 2007 (CDT)

Re:Ice Climbers
I was just about to ask you what the heck you were doing :) it's okay ;) --Myth (talk) 11:56, 15 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Actually, in the uk version is says purple, in the US, it says blue. I wonder why.--Rocky http://media.strategywiki.org/images/thumb/7/78/Rally-X_Rock.png/25px-Rally-X_Rock.png (Talk - Contributions)

Spellcheck
Please be careful not to convert regular text to special codes. It just makes the code messier. -- Prod (Talk) 23:06, 18 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Oh, and it's spelled favourite (sorry, I'm Canadian :P). However, regional differences shouldn't really be fixed without a good reason (Firefox spell check not being one of them :P) -- Prod (Talk) 23:07, 18 September 2007 (CDT)
 * I know what you mean about the misspellings, it's highlighting favourite for me, which bugs me :P. I'll post this up on CI. -- Prod (Talk) 09:30, 19 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Oh you mean - vs —. You can get some of those odder symbols from the charinsert box below. And yes, you're right, we shouldn't be using hyphens in those cases. -- Prod (Talk) 09:34, 19 September 2007 (CDT)

Actually, it was me who wanted them not to be the standard; we should be using colons for controls (and other similar lists). I had a big argument with NMH about it (I think he was in favour of en-dashes), but I can't be bothered to look it up. It was perhaps half a year ago in CI? -- 10:51, 19 September 2007 (CDT)
 * Oh, OK. Good! :-) /me is still unhappy that you Americanised his CSS guide, though. :-( -- 10:58, 19 September 2007 (CDT)

Bubble Bobble screenshots
Hi Duke. I was just curious where you were getting your BB screenshots from. Were you aware of this site? Just curious. Procyon (Talk) 21:19, 9 October 2007 (CDT)


 * Doh... I was afraid of that. You were using the NES version? Hmm... See, the levels are a little different.  Can you meet me on the IRC?  Maybe there's a way to salvage what you've done and make the corrections at the same time.  Procyon (Talk) 21:26, 9 October 2007 (CDT)

Future template
The maths it does appears to be broken. I'll try and fix it later on today, as other guides using it are broken too. Thanks for notifying me. :-) --DrBob (talk) 01:35, 25 January 2008 (CST)

4Players.de
I only added some info for 4Players because as far as I can tell they are the publisher for the game, and I didn't want to have any red links (so the guide can eventually move to the next completion stage). If that was a mistake on my part then thanks for the correction. Bong 16:30, 31 January 2008 (CST)

Chrono Trigger images
Hey man, I really appreciate the Spekkio images. Did you make them yourself? -- 21:39, 10 February 2008 (CST)

Your signature
I just noticed that your customized signature is causing problems when you post it inside a template (such as the Featured guides requests). The vertical pipe you have between the links to your Talk and Contribution pages causes the system to think that anything following the Talk link is part of a different parameter and not appear on the page. You could probably fix it by wrapping a  tag around the pipe. - Koweja 12:09, 2 March 2008 (CST)

CT Req TP
Did you gather that data yourself? If so - well done! -- 18:50, 5 March 2008 (CST)

Pokemon template placment
Hi Duke! I like the idea of the pokemon template, and you did a great job with it, but why did you place them in some of the subpages? Putting them on the front pages makes sense, but adding them to the pokedex and move lists seems a little much. Just my $0.02. Procyon (Talk) 12:53, 14 May 2008 (CDT)

Staff lounge
Consider my talk page an extend Staff lounge :). -- Prod (Talk) 11:18, 29 June 2008 (CDT)

Legend of Legaia
The Generic Arrows are supposed to be generic, and only used as a placeholder until something better can be found. -- Prod (Talk) 09:57, 18 July 2008 (CDT)

Re: Show Preview
Thanks for your reminder to tell me to use "Show Review". However, I find your reminder a bit insulting considering the fact that I'm an administrator on Wikipedia so the usage of edit mode and its buttons is 2nd nature to me. Also, there's no rule against edit-stacking. I know it will flood RC, but I prefer to edit them in small sections. OhanaUnited Talk page  00:22, 6 August 2008 (CDT)

New Wiki
Hi Duke. I'm really excited about this. We're going to set up a second wiki that is exclusively for all video game content that falls outside the scope set for StrategyWiki. This would include, but is not limited to, gaming history, characters (Mario, Link, etc.), locations and settings (Hyrule, Castlevania, etc.), gaming paraphernalia (such as the afore mentioned Pac-Man Fever album, and I'm going to scan my complete set of Fleer Pac-Man and Topps Donkey Kong stickers), and magazines (EGM, Nintendo Power, etc.). Hopefully, the two wikis will interlink with one another seamlessly, but we'll have a new home for additional content. Procyon (Talk) 12:38, 14 August 2008 (CDT)
 * I hate to put it this way, but don't hold your breath ;). -- Prod (Talk) 15:43, 16 August 2008 (CDT)

Star Fox 2
Hi, thanks a lot for the message ; ) I thought that with a game as unknown as this one probably nobody would notice/care : P Thanks for telling me about the proper use of the "=" header and correcting it. About making the guide multiple pages, well at first I thought that since the game is fairly simple, and since it was unreleased there isn't a huge amount of info available for it, and though I'm going to do my best to fill all the important parts, I was going to do it one page first and see how it went, also because I didn't know how normal policies were regarding the required length of info needed to add more pages, but I then had a look at other guides and many have about the info I think I could probably fill in multiple pages, and now I see it might be also a bit cluttered all in one page, so I might do it. What do you think then about making one page for each of the mayor sections?

1-Intro, Contents and Emulation

2-Controls

3-Character Selection

4-Difficulty

5-Gameplay

6-Strategy

7-Scoring

8-Secrets (with trivia added)

I think I'm going to go ahead with that.

Thanks a lot for your help ; ) Galaxy 19:37, 24 August 2008 (CDT)
