Wikipedia markups

Taken from a wiki I admin:

In order to link to Wikipedia articles properly, don't add the actual link, use wikipedia:article to
link directly to Wikipedia articles. Same goes to Wikitokyo articles, it's [</nowiki>[WT:article]].

I do wish you guys would allow something like that for "lesser known" gaming platforms, like the Tiger Game.com I tried to link like that (I figured it was a feature of Mediawiki) to wikipedia. I doubt the Game.com platform is worth a huge mention in any of SW, which is why I tried to link the wikipedia article.

But, I don't know your thoughts on that, so...

Also, thanks to DrBob for finding that template I couldn't find. You guys call it something else. =/ --Sekoku 14:51, 4 June 2006 (PDT)

Wikipedia: links currently don't work for some reason. In the meantime you can link to it via another Wikimedia project, e.g. wikipedia:Golden Axe. You can also use {{Wikipedia|Article Name}} to get this sidebar. Garrett^Talk 16:32, 4 June 2006 (PDT)

That work-around works, I guess. Thanks. :) --Sekoku 19:09, 4 June 2006 (PDT)

We already have the Game.com: there's a category for it here. :-) --DrBob (Talk) 05:59, 1 October 2006 (CDT)

Pokemon markup

Apparently, you guys are trying to strike a deal with Bulbapedia. After that's done, I guess I'll start to markup the pokemon terminology (if they have it). If that falls through... well, someone else will have to take up that job. :o --Sekoku 22:56, 30 September 2006 (CDT)

Hi Sekoku! It funny, I was going to contact you about the Bulbapedia partnership when I noticed that you were working on Pokemon related material, but I decided to wait until the deal was agreed upon. But yet, that would be wonderful if you're willing to help us with the execution of the partnership. Thanks very much! Procyon 08:16, 1 October 2006 (CDT)

I'm just an outside observer, really. If the deal happens it'll be a heck of a lot easier to deal with Pokemon links, as opposed to doing it by ourselves (and becoming "yet-another-pokedex"). So I'm basically waiting before I finish markup of that comp. guide. Not a problem at all with doing the execution really. Just a bit TL;DR syndrome. D: --Sekoku 08:53, 1 October 2006 (CDT)

Image Categorisation

Of course, he keeps putting them in "artwork" even after you told him to stop doing that. :| Fixed them. But you might want to smack some sense into him, please. --Sekoku 21:23, 30 September 2006 (CDT)

I need to tell you Sekoku, I didn't get DrBob's message until the next day. I know that I need to improve upon my image skills, and that everyone is getting frustrated with with me and shoveling out warnings, and I am getting better, but please have a little patience. I don't have very much experience at uploading images. 0-172 14:16, 1 October 2006 (CDT)

Crap subpages

Sandbox

Fixed. If you have any problems, post on StrategyWiki:Staff lounge and you should get a fairly quick answer. -- Prod 13:40, 5 October 2006 (CDT)

Pokémon/Competitive battling

I'm going to be cleaning this guide up, I'm not sure if you're the original author but just letting you know if you're interested. -- Mason11987 ^{(Talk - Contributions)} 21:52, 7 October 2006 (CDT)

That's fine. In fact if you have the power to finish it, do so. Saves me the trouble of making it from Gamefaqs to wiki format. And, no. I'm not the OW of it. --Sekoku 15:18, 8 October 2006 (CDT)

Hey, I've been recently looking over your competitive battling guide (good job so far!), and I just wanted to say some things about some of the items. Should I just edit or should I tell you so you can make the evaluation to edit it or not?Angel14995 21:02, 27 August 2007 (CDT)

NPOV

NPOV stands for Neutral Point Of View. This is the standard way of writing for Strategy Wiki. An example of the incorrect way of writing on SW is: "Imentioned earlier that so-and-so did such-and-such". This is not the way to write. The correct way to write is: "It was mentioned earlier that so-and-so did such-and-such". This is because Strategy Wiki wants to be inclusive to all people wanting to edit an article. If an article says "I" a lot and the person editing isn't that "I", then it feels awkward impersonating an "I". Therefore, your contributions to the Pokémon battling sections were incorrectly written, and I must say, no offense, that wikifying a page without a NPOV is a real pain. So please remember this in the future, and it would be much appreciated if you'd help wikify some pages without a NPOV. Thank you. Myth 19:26, 9 June 2007 (CDT)

Don't mind Myth's enthusiasm Sekoku ;) But yeah, if you could keep your writing NPOV, that would be great. Please continue with your great Pokémon contributions. Thanks so much! Procyon (Talk) 23:04, 9 June 2007 (CDT)

Sorry for being too harsh, Sekoku. I didn't realize you are new to Strategy Wiki, but that's still no excuse for slamming you for the NPOV thing. So, welcome to Strategy wiki! I hope you'll accept my sincere apology, as I can get too enthusiastic^_^. Thanks and sorry again, Myth 00:36, 10 June 2007 (CDT)
