:OK, I set up [[The King of Fighters Orochi Collection]] and [[The King of Fighters Nests Collection]], and their Table of Contents.  It should guide you completely now up to KOF 2002.  After KOF 2002, we'll have to find a new way to set up 2003, NeoWave, XI and XII.  Then we can make separate TOCs for Maximum Impact, etc.  Let me know if you have any questions.  [[User:Procyon|Procyon]] ([[User talk:Procyon|Talk]]) 14:55, 22 November 2007 (CST)

::You brought up a number of good points, but there are some solutions that we can do.  For one thing, we should establish a [[:Category:King of Fighters]], and put all of the KOF games in that, just like we do with [[:Category:Street Fighter]].  And it may be a good idea to have a [[:Category:King of Fighters Characters]].  Next, we can have navigation templates like [[Template:Zelda]], which lists all of the KOF games, and put that at the bottom of each KOF page.  Next, for the characters, we put disambiguation links at the top of the page, such as the one I put on top of [[Capcom vs. SNK/Characters/Akuma]], which links to [[Capcom/Move lists]], which has all of the character links right there for people to find.  Finally, if people are looking for Ash, they can also use the search bar at the top.  What I'm hoping for by breaking up the series, is that we don't have to load up, say, Terry Bogard's page with information about every single KOF on one page.  We can break it up, and give Terry more pages and show his evolution from KOF 94 to KOF 2003 across several pages.  [[User:Procyon|Procyon]] ([[User talk:Procyon|Talk]]) 10:09, 23 November 2007 (CST)

:::OK, I understand what you mean.  Personally, I'd rather see a link like [[The King of Fighters/Characters/Terry]] #redirect to the [[SNK Playmore/Move lists]] page.  Like if we had a [[Street Fighter/Characters/Ryu]], it should #redirect to [[Capcom/Move lists#Ryu]].  Just an idea.  Ultimately, it can be however you prefer.  As for the ToC, there's no need to add KOF '99 and up if it's in a Navigation Template.  You would always be able to get to it at the bottom of the page.  That would get especially confusing to a reader since '99 isn't part of the Orochi saga.  [[User:Procyon|Procyon]] ([[User talk:Procyon|Talk]]) 12:08, 23 November 2007 (CST)

Why did you remove the copyvio tag from [http://strategywiki.org/w/index.php?title=Wind_Slayer/Key_Features&curid=65544&diff=271899&oldid=271771 here]? -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 09:28, 27 May 2008 (CDT)

== KOF TOC ==
Hi Bmuig!  Good to see you back ^_^  I'm not sure why Garrett deleted the ToC.  Must have been a misunderstanding.  I have restored it.  Let me know if you have any more problems.  [[User:Procyon|Procyon]] ([[User talk:Procyon|Talk]]) 21:32, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
:Aye, welcome back ye scurvy dog! Er, happy belated talk like a pirate day! --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 23:18, 21 September 2008 (UTC)
== Date cats ==
Hey Bmuig, please don't add date categories to pages. Actually, you should be removing them. Using {{t|rd}}, we've automated the process from the infobox. Thanks, --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 17:12, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
:Adding the |series parameter should also take care of the series category, so you can remove those as well ;).  We've tried to automate categories as much as possible. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 17:42, 5 October 2008 (UTC)
== KoF Moves ==
Can you subpage [http://strategywiki.org/w/index.php?title=The_King_of_Fighters_'98:_The_Slugfest/Moves&action=edit The King of Fighters '98: The Slugfest/Moves] since it doesn't seem to load for me anymore. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 17:17, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
:What are the redirects for? -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 17:15, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
::What do you mean by expand those redirects?  Redirects can only point to one place, and in that case, you might as well just link to the page itself rather than the redirect.  If you're suggesting using disambiguation type pages instead, then you don't need the redirect pages anywayz. When do those other games come out? -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 17:53, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
:::Argh... Bmuig, I wish you had talked with us about those page renames before going ahead and going through with them.  We're actually thinking of ''shortening'' those page names because the subtitle issues cause too much confusion.  Different console ports get different subtitles occasionally.  So the first Fatal Fury game should simply be referred to as Fatal Fury, and not Fatal Fury: The King of Fighters, which never actually appears in the official title under most listings.  It only appears on the title screen as a less regarded subtitle.  We'll work this out.  [[User:Procyon|Procyon]] ([[User talk:Procyon|Talk]]) 22:46, 9 November 2008 (UTC)
::::Hi Bmuig.  I appreciate your help with all of this.  It's so unfortunate, because so much confusion is created by the inconsistency on the part of the publishers themselves when it comes to subtitles.  Ultimately, Prod and I felt that one policy to rely upon is the official title printed on box art and promotional artwork.  In such cases, you never see "The World Warrior" on an SF2 box, or "The King of Fighters" on any Fatal Fury box art.  The only time you see those words (as far as I have been able to determine) is on the title screens of the games (which makes you wonder why companies bother to include them in the first place.)  As official as we try to be with the titles, it's ultimately about making the information easy for a reader to find.  And we all know that when people search, they search on the least amount of terms that should result in a positive hit for what they're looking for.  One thing I've been doing is using gamefaqs as a reference database for titles.  What I found was that the term "The Wold Warrior" only occurred for the US version of the arcade game, and for no other version or port of the game.  So clearly it is not a commonly referenced title.  *sigh*  Isn't the gaming industry awesome?  :)  [[User:Procyon|Procyon]] ([[User talk:Procyon|Talk]]) 15:34, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
== KOF names reply ==
I changed Goro to Daimon because he is always, ALWAYS, referred to as Daimon. The same with Goenits, Krauser, Kensou and Yamazaki.  I think arbitrarily  using first names is an incredibly bad idea, you might as well call [[Street Fighter II/Characters/E. Honda|E. Honda]] as Edmund, [[Street Fighter II/Characters/T. Hawk|T. Hawk]] as Thunder, [[Final Fight|Hagger]] as Mike, [[Mortal Kombat 3|Stryker]] as Kurtis, ect.  Those without background knowledge of the games wouldn't know who your talking about.[[User:Blue Phoenix|Blue Phoenix]] 14:21, 18 January 2009 (UTC)
== Little Fighters 2 ==
Hey Bmuig,<br>
Hey I don't know if you will help me on this project. I have recently created a Little Fighter 2 guide [[Little Fighter 2]] But I need a lot of help with it. I heard from Melon247 that you liked fighting games. (cause apparently she doesn't) She suggested me to ask you if you wanted to help. I think you don't have a lot of time because of work, but I have school so I proboably am equally busy. (maybe not) If you can't just let me know on my talk page. Thanks anyways.<br>-May you days be filled with adventure [[User:Jakcer|Jakcer]] ([[User talk:Jakcer|Talk]]) 01:13, 23 January 2009 (UTC)
Bmiug I see you imported a good picture of Davis. Please could you tell me where you got the pictures from.

== Upcoming meeting ==
As a reminder, there is a meeting this Saturday, May 29, on IRC taking place at 2:00pm EDT (UTC -4). As always, agenda is available on the forums, so you may view it and suggest additions there. Hope to see you there! --{{User:Ryan Schmidt/sig4}} 04:02, 27 May 2010 (UTC)
== History line ==
Hello Bmuig, I was wondering if you would be willing to find the time to fill in the strategy tips sections for the French campaign in the [[History Line: 1914-1918|History Line: 1914-1918]] game. I've been systematically building stub pages for the maps lately and when I'm done with it I'll move on to the German campaign. If you're not into it I could attempt to write something myself, however it would be a rather poor attempt. -- [[User:Furiat|Furiat]] 12:22, 9 January 2011 (CST)
:Thanks for the thumbs up on the HL project. As for the maps - I just took your samples and made best effort to create similar or identical ones (even up to the point of trying to find the same font, which didn't work out). And I must say - adding enemy subs in their correct spots is a pain. I understand you not having time do devote to it - hope you'll have more time someday. I feet it's a lost cause, because not a lot of people would take up the (very old) game these days. -- [[User:Furiat|Furiat]] 14:53, 11 January 2011 (CST)
