== Staff meeting ==

Hey Moydow.  Prod is not online, and I wanted to let someone else know that I can't make the meeting today. I'm attending a volunteer fund raiser, and I'm heading out soon.  Please extend my apologies to everyone. Thanks.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 10:15, 30 October 2010 (CDT)

:That's OK, I'll let them know. Hope to see you there next time. {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 10:24, 30 October 2010 (CDT)

::Well, Prod wasn't there either, so there was no meeting today. {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 15:52, 30 October 2010 (CDT)

Hi Moydow.  Unfortunately, this is going to be another bad month for Prod and I.  I will be travelling back to Baltimore from Dallas today, and I believe Prod is out hunting for apartments. He and I should have put our heads together and rescheduled the meetings, and in all likelihood, that is what we will do.  If you happen to be online to see who is there, feel free to gather some ideas for the next community meeting.  Hopefully we will choose a better date because I highly doubt that the last weekend in December will really be good for anybody.  Thanks!

:Yeah, I don't think Christmas Day is a good time for a meeting either. Though Prod did actually make it today, so there was something of an informal discussion. {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 20:21, 27 November 2010 (CST)

== "Image:OR Dr. Kubota.gif" has been marked for deletion... ==

== Thank you for the welcome! ==

I do have one question up front for you. I was reading some of the help pages, and also researching on what is normally expected here. One of the things I saw, and cannot seem to figure out how to do, is layouts for Table of contents. The example given on [[StrategyWiki:Guide/Table of contents|Table of contents]] under Common Layouts is what I am referring to. I know [[Fallout: New Vegas]] is going to require me to modify the current layout to make it more aesthetically pleasing to me (OCD here). What I am primarily questioning, is if you can point me to a couple of guides that demonstrate each of the examples given, so I can look under the hood and see how it ticks.

Between Procyon and Prod, I was able to figure out what I wanted to do. Just wanted to let you know.--[[User:Cypherwulfe|Cypherwulfe]] 04:20, 2 November 2010 (CDT)

:That's ok. I got called out around when you posted your first message, and had no time to reply, but at least you got what you needed. Best of luck. {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 06:41, 2 November 2010 (CDT)

== [[Ordyne/Strategies]] has been marked for deletion... ==

== I see you have deleted the "unnecessary redirect" of Metal Hawk/Canal Zone... ==

:Doing them now. I don't mind at all; in fact, I appreciate it, since this means they won't be forgotten about, and I have been busier than usual recently, so I might miss them sometimes in Recent Changes. Thanks! {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 11:11, 10 November 2010 (CST)

::Just a heads up for you: I have marked Metal Hawk/Strategies for deletion as of now. [[User:Namcorules|Namcorules]] 10:00, 19 November 2010 (CST)

:::Done! {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 10:43, 19 November 2010 (CST)

== Splatterhouse/Strategies and Splatterhouse/Tips have been marked for deletion... ==

...as their content has been merged with the [[Splatterhouse/Walkthrough|Walkthrough]] page - I'm surprised you didn't notice this fact after you had deleted the unused redirect page Splatterhouse/Elements! [[User:Namcorules|Namcorules]] 11:20, 6 December 2010 (CST)

== Peanut64 ==

I am the same Peanut64 on PikminFanon. [[User:Peanut64|Peanut64]]

== PS: ==

And Sorry for the rudeness. [[User:Peanut64|Peanut64]]

:No worries. I think the main reason you weren't originally added is because fanon falls considerably outside of our scope. But you're added now. {{User:Moydow/Signature}} 12:12, 27 December 2010 (CST)

== Mirai Ninja/Strategies and Mirai Ninja/Tips have been marked for deletion... ==

...as they have been merged with the [[Mirai Ninja/Walkthrough|Walkthrough]] page I have recently created. I have also marked the following images for deletion: "Image:MN Inari.gif", "Image:MN Oda Nobunaga.gif", "Image:MN Hideyoshi.gif" and "Image:MN Neko.gif" (for being replaced with "Image:MN Inari.png", "Image:MN Oda Nobunaga.png", "Image:MN Toyotomi Hideyoshi.png" and "Image:MN Nekko.png"), "Image:MN Shurazo.png" (for only being a big statue featured in the sixth stage's background), "Image:MN Kamui.gif" (for actually being the "damsel-in-distress" Princess Saki) and "Image:MN Kumo Yashiki.gif" (for only appearing in the game's ending sequence). Finally, I have requested "Image:MN Hangu Raida.gif" and "Image:MN High Samurai.gif" to be renamed to "Image:MN Han Guraida.gif" and "Image:MN Shikinami Kurosagi.gif" respectively. I'm surprised you didn't notice all of these when you deleted the unused redirect of Mirai Ninja/Elements yesterday! [[User:Namcorules|Namcorules]] 08:50, 18 January 2011 (CST)

== Dominions3 page==

Hi, the dominions 3 wiki is horribly outdated. A lot of information is missing, and it hasn't been updated for patches in years. dom3 dot servegame dot org slash wiki has a much larger and up to date wiki. But this wiki will not allow me to update the page with a link to that wiki.

:: Well, first, it ain't walkthrough information, but more stats, guides and information that isn't in the manual. You cannot have real walkthroughs for non deterministic turn based strategy games. But that is kinda sucky. And I would rather have one up to date wiki with information. The dom3.servegame one is better in that regard as it also includes all the data from the game files. No way, I'm going to add all that information here. Unless you are willing to pay for the time spend doing it, and give access to a backend with a sql database. This one has not been updated in more than two years, the other one is still frequently updated. No use in doing the same work twice. --[[User:Soyweiser|Soyweiser]] 19:32, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

 

:::Soyweiser, the goal of StrategyWiki is to be one giant inclusive wiki with all the game data for every game out there possible.  It's counter to the site's goals to point to other wikis because once we do it for one game, we have to do it for all.  You could very easily copy and paste many of the pages that exist on the other wiki.  I realize that this potentially splinters the two databases, but this is how we run the site.  And everyone here works on the site on a volunteer basis, no one is paid anything.  All of the stats, guides and information about the game is welcome on this site. Please consider exporting it here. Thanks. '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 20:14, 25 February 2011 (UTC)

:Anyone can post links once they're autoconfirmed I believe.  http://dom3.servegame.org/wiki/ is down at the moment. We wouldn't be totally against a partnership of some kind, but we can't just say "don't use our site, go somewhere else".  As for sql database access, there's really no such thing for mediawiki.  The closest is the [http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/API:Main_page API] for building bots. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 00:03, 26 February 2011 (UTC)

 

 

whats the proper format? --[[User:Grambling34|Grambling34]] 11:45, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

:Use the "Guide page" button for guide pages. Also, character pages for fighting games have a specific format; take a look at [[The King of Fighters Orochi Collection/Characters/Benimaru]] for an example. Basically, put generic story info, etc. on the Game/Characters/Character-name page, and the movelist on Game/Character-name page. --{{User:Moydow/Signature}} 12:03, 19 April 2011 (UTC)

::Just a heads up for you - I have suggested that "Image:WD Ice Broker.gif", "Image:WD Sunobado.gif" and "WD Plant.gif" should be renamed to "Image:WD Ice Blocker.gif", "Image:WD Snow Bird.gif" and "Image:WD Eater Plant.gif" respectively. [[User:Namcorules|Namcorules]] 16:55, 8 June 2011 (UTC)

 

== With regards to [[User talk:Najzere/Talk page archive 201–300#In the past year or so, the Pac-Mania pages have been a target of vandalism...|this post]] on [[User:Najzere|Najzere]]'s talk page, the "[[Pac-Mania]] Vandal" has returned! ==

 

According to the edit history of [[Pac-Mania/Getting Started]], he has used three more sockpuppet IPs since his second IP, [[User:76.228.225.174]] was blocked for a year in March 2010 for the offending edits; [[User: 122.52.84.223]], [[User:76.228.226.122]], and [[User:68.225.40.136]]. He obviously still has not familiarised himself with the promotional flyers, and I do not take his edits lightly given that I was the one who created the guide for the game in the first place! So if you or another admin could '''please''' block these IPs for a year or protect the page in question so that only registered users can edit it, I would be most grateful.

 

By the way, I have marked these images for deletion: "Image:FH Atom.gif", "Image:FH Dia.gif", "Image:FH Dome Cannon.gif", "Image:FH Stone Cannon.gif", "Image:FH Robot Cannon.gif", "Image:FH Raito.gif", "Image:FH Mini Cannon 1.gif", "Image:FH Mini Cannon 2.gif", "Image:FH Mini Cannon 3.gif" and "Image:FH Tank.gif" given that the enemies that are depicted in them have not actually appeared in the Japan-only game of [[Finest Hour]].
