In that case you'd just delete the Marvel cat from the Marvel: Ultimate Alliance titles, since it currently contains 6 games from 2 different series. Ideally X-Men Legends and Marvel: Ultimate Alliance would be the same series, but they didn't leave us a solid tie in the titles to link the two series. Either way, Marvel: Ultimate Alliance doesn't belong in the Marvel vs. Capcom series, they're not the same type of game, and they only count as spin-offs in the sense that Marvel is the owner of the IP, which opens up bringing back all of the titles you removed from the category to begin with, and removes the need for the series template.--~Vizeroth · (c)~-- 02:23, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Category:System Shock seems relevant. I've put them back in Marvel till we have a better place to put them. -- Prod (Talk) 06:45, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

In that case they'd go in X-Men Legends. Putting them in Marvel is still just as bad as all of the other games you already removed from the category.--~Vizeroth · (c)~-- 19:51, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Survivor[edit]

Hi, I just wanted to say thank you for contributing for the Devil Survivor guide. And also for cleaning up, correcting and expanding my strategies! :) --Calystegia 10:56, 10 August 2009 (UTC)

Re: Little King's Story/DoubleJump template[edit]

Was the template not working properly or did someone fix the problems with the single quote in the template? (Check the history, I added the game support when the guide came out ;p ) --~Vizeroth · (c)~-- 00:28, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Oops, I didn't even look to see if it had already been added! I also didn't realise proper quotes don't work for this template, that's very strange. Garrett^Talk 01:06, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

MagnaCarta II[edit]

Dang, whoever drew that official artwork was having some fun. (They like some pretty big legs too, <_<;;). Anyway, is this official box art? — najzere^T 22:34, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

There are three different box images floating around, Namco's website shows a black image with the title and not much else. I don't think any of them are final. Look up the series and google the art designer's stuff, he's generally pretty good for selling games to teenagers, but none of the games have turned out too well so far. --~Vizeroth · (c)~-- 22:37, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Total Annihilation[edit]

For the TA game where some of the level names overlap, is there a game specific reason they're prefixed rather than disambiguated (using brackets)? If not, I'd like to switch them over. -- Prod (Talk) 05:12, 14 November 2009 (UTC)

Disgaea 2 ToC Reorganization[edit]

A few months ago, you decided to "rearrange" Disgaea 2's table of contents and "rename" the various pages within. That's fine, but if you're going to do such a thing, correct all the internal links that link to the corresponding pages (if you don't know, you can find out the sum of these internal links by clicking on "what links here"). Now the guide has a ton of dead internal links which link to Special Characters instead of Special characters, and so on. (I will be expecting you to amend this, btw.) --DekuGuy 10:09, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Erm... Alright I guess, on second glance, it seems like most of them had already been fixed. I'm sorry if I came off as a bit rude. --DekuGuy 22:58, 9 January 2010 (UTC)

Upcoming meeting[edit]

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! --Skiz zerz 04:03, 27 May 2010 (UTC)

as usual the time is almost impossible to make, and in particular I'm on vacation this week. So will probablu be at disneyworld on saturday (and I haven't even set my laptop up to use the wifi here, I've been making due with my phone)

-I noticed you had 4 different spoiler tags on your FF IX page.  If someone is following a walkthrough, there is only so many spoilers they can avoid.  Trying to hide the content of the guide because it reveals plot points that they're about to find out defeats the purpose.  I would suggest trying to be more ambiguous ("talk to this character for some plot development") or to move the content somewhere else.

-:No problem, I was just being overly sensitive about it, most likely, and I'll try to be more vague about anything I think may be problematic in the future.

-== Re: Numbered Headings ==
-I have absolutely no problem with headings for organization purposes, however I have one problem with [[Yoshi Touch &amp; Go|this one]]. '''Consistency'''. It is the main page for the game, and all other pages like it (or at least the majority) do not use headings.
-If it is important enough for its own heading on the main page, then it should get its own page, such as being put under Getting Started or whichever place it fits. I didn't do it with this one because it had hardly any content anyway.
