{{Control}} and images[edit]

I had an Idea today: I want to switch the Images between NES, SNES and GBC with control (like it's used to switch between PS2, Wii, et controls). This should be doable, right? What do you think of it? Paco (talk) 11:23, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Yes, this will work. --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 16:00, 22 May 2012 (UTC)
I think i figured it out how to imbed it, but the SNES-Controller and the Word "Controller" is kinda confusing for Image-switching. Isn't there another controll template with different Pic and wording for it?

This is how the Code would look like:

{{Control selector|NES, SNES, GBC}}
{{control|NES-PC|SNES-Pic|GBC-Pic}}

That is correct. There are no options. Just ignore imprecise wording of it; it works. --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 17:33, 22 May 2012 (UTC)

Data to verify[edit]

When verified, strikethrough the text with <s></s>, but do not delete.

Poison Caterpillar translation

This [Site] say it's green caterpillar, though green = midori in japanese. hmmm. Paco (talk) 21:06, 16 July 2012 (UTC)

There are different ways to spell caterpillar. The one in this case refers to "potato caterpillar". If you click on the imo character, it gives you an example of its use, in a sentence like this:

"kono imomushi gakireina chou ninarunoda" which, on the same page, is translated as "This caterpillar will become a beautiful butterfly." I think the "green" is an error. Most caterpillars are green. The Japanese also have other combinations of characters with mushi, such as kemushi (毛虫), which means furry or feathered caterpillar, like a moth, but also just a general caterpillar. There is also aomushi (青虫), which means blue or green caterpillar. 芋虫 is the main term used by Japanese to refer to caterpillars (try googling it; first result is the ja wikipedia page for caterpillar). --Notmyhandle (talk contribs) 22:56, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
