Great work on the Soulcalibur articles!

As far as I see them, almost all of them are now precise ones. More understandable to a layman specially to your design and reception additions. Great work on them dude!--JCD (Talk) 14:37, 28 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re:Space Invaders

You're not stepping on anyone's toes. I'm always glad to get some feedback on an article I've been starring at for too long.

As far as expanding the gameplay, I'm at a loss as to what else can be added in that isn't trivial detail. Since the article is about the original arcade version, I tried to focus on that version's gameplay, which is very basic. Aside from expanding on the scoring (10pt for bottom aliens, 20pt for middle, 30pt for top, and randomized for the mystery ship), I'm not sure what else there is to add. But I worry that such level of detail is gameguide content. Any thoughts?

In regard to the rerelease section, I see your point, but I think it fits under the main "Impact and legacy" section as rereleases and sequels are a part of its legacy. I had planned to see what comments the article would get at GAN to maybe make some last minute tweaks before FAC. If you don't mind waiting, could you bring this up at the FAC? I think a few more viewpoints would be good.

Thanks for the comments and please feel free to share your thoughts on any article. (Guyinblack25 talk 05:54, 5 September 2008 (UTC))[reply]

Hey man, can you set up your email for the wiki? I've got some sources you can use for Ivy (Soulcalibur). Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 04:25, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sent it. Hopefully there's some good stuff you can use. Cheers, Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 21:11, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
That would explain why I never got the confirmation email. Anyhow, sending again. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 20:53, 7 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Angel (The King of Fighters)

Okay. The problem I see is that this article only has 3 refs (one of them is unreliable), two paragraphs of the conception are original research, while the character has only a canonical appearance. However, I will merge it later, I forgot that Rugal Bernstein is practically a mess. Next time Ill add a tag. RegardsTintor2 (talk) 23:23, 8 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for uploading Image:Evil dead 03.jpg. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check

  • That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's description page for each article the image is used in.
  • That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Re: For what it's worth

I don't have any solution to make the lists better. I'm here on Wikipedia for knowledge, nothing else. Bulbapedia is the perfect replacement for that WikiProject, I'm helping out there. (and to be honest I'm mainly there for knowledge too.)

I know you're right that something can be done. I just can't see it happening that the lists will become useful. I know you miss me to be part of this WikiProject, but let's face it, most of the active contributors of the Project have left it, and it's just my time to go.

Fansites

Nobody can provide any policy based reason as to why we should trust a source which fails WP:V and WP:RS to hold reliable transcripts. That makes the section disputed. I didn't move it, I simple inserted that the section is dubious because its under current debate. A debate which no one else has continued to add anything to. Simply ignoring it doesn't make the disputed guideline okay.--Crossmr (talk) 04:02, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

perception of logic? By the pages own admission the sites do not meet WP:V. There is no great interpretation of logic to assume that we can't trust them to host transcripts. WP:RS already has a precedent that videos hosted on non-official sites not be considered reliable because its possible they could be tampered with. In addition to this I gave an example of just such a case which has occurred on wikipedia and gone on for several months.--Crossmr (talk) 04:11, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Reliable sources making mistakes is fairly immaterial. Everyone makes mistakes, however as a community we consider those sites as unreliable which doesn't seem to be a contended point. I can't see how its remotely possible that we would accept that an unreliable site is allowed to host content that we consider reliable. Where is your citation for that? How can you prove to random reader X that what the fansite has is accurate? That the transcript they have of cutscene Y is 100% verbatim? Tell them to play the game and watch the cutscene? Then cite the cutscene directly. There is no reason to cite the fansite.--Crossmr (talk) 04:24, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Admins opinion have no more weight in enforcing policy than any other editor. Admins serve only to use their tools in places where discussion alone isn't enough. blocking disruptive editors, deleting articles, etc. If there is a reliable source, then there is no need to cite the fansite. As to what makes reviewers and other things more reliable, is spelled out on WP:RS. Yes, mistakes can be made. But just because a reliable source can make a mistake doesn't make it acceptable to cite an unreliable source. I've just read WP:V and WP:RS again but I can't find anything in there that says if your reliable source makes a mistake, feel free to cite any old page you want.--Crossmr (talk) 04:39, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
A stubbron bull? Because I ask that all citations adhere to policy? Your only defense of this section is to claim reliable sources can make mistakes so citing a fansite is fine over and over. As far as circumventing discussion, this is a relevant discussion about reliable sources which even relates to another existing discussion on the page (youtube videos, allegedly reliable things hosted on a self-published medium). This is a completely relevant discussion to the noticeboard, as it not only applies to videogames, but other subjects as I've demonstrated with the problem with the flash comic article.--Crossmr (talk) 04:51, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Thank you for taking the time to contact me. In response to the deleted material, it is covered briefly:

"Because of its many delays, there was much material cut and various pieces of unused data exist in the game engine, including data for a second battle with Kain, extra Soul Reaver powers, and other bosses. A compilation of these deleted materials has been compiled by Ben Lincoln at "thelostworlds.net" Some of the images for these deleted materials appear in the Chronoplast as visions of alternative futures that might come to be."

There's also a GameSpot interview, which the subsequent paragraph details. The rest of the development section is fairly important, detailing the game's original concept, that concept's adaptation into the game, and the disolving relationship between the series' parent companies. The problem is finding sources for all this. A fansite says "Dennis Dyack has revealed..." except I can't find exactly where or when he said it. As I said on his talk page - if I can't find it on Google, I never will. Maybe Dyack said it in a magazine, I'll never know. See my problem? It just irritates me when primary sources offer nothing, secondary sources are limited and fansites are unreliable simply because they're fansites. The Clawed One (talk)

Well that's the thing, most of the deleted materials on thelostworlds does come with extracted audio and screenshots. For example, there was a scene cut where Raziel kills Ariel and absorbs her powe - the dialogue for this file is downloadable, and unless the guy is a crack audio editor, that's certainly the official voices. But it's hosted by a fansite, so from what I was told, it's out the door. Here, see for yourself: http://www.thelostworlds.net/SR1/The_Death_of_Ariel.html
I also contacted the site owner, to see if he knows of where else the information he provides can be found - hopefully he can point me in the right direction to a reliable coverage. The Clawed One (talk)
Unfortunately the only name I have is the one the fansite uses, and I have no idea how to source audio sources. The Clawed One (talk)
I'd seen the GIA article, but the IGN article sourcing them puts it in a new light. It gives GIA credibility, and gives me a secondary source of GIA isn't usable. Thanks! I'm also going to source thelostworlds for a section, but make a point of saying it's a temporary source while I track down who they're citing, because I am. The Clawed One (talk)
Just a FYI, I finally tracked down some reliable sources over "thelostworlds", and nominated the article for GA status. Wish me luck! The Clawed One (talk)

Re: Necrid

That's a great start, and I think you have all the refs to back it up; so I'm perfectly fine with it. If you ever decide the article is ready for FAC, then it will need some polishing, but it will do great for now. --haha169 (talk) 05:37, 15 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Report Me?

You say you'll report me if I move the Sakura and Ken articles again? You're the one ignoring the naming policy, not me. You reporting it will be enough to name the articles by their common name forever. If you remember, the agreement was to use the names frequently used in easy to see places - ie, Under health bars, on player select screens or versus screens etc - not names sometimes found in biographies, endings and the like. This isn't an agreement about whether or not to retain this information, but where in the article it is placed - and the title is the wrong place. Continue moving this articles to your preferred title names, and I'll involve other users. Mr.bonus (talk) 15:36, 22 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Street Fighter IV artwork.

Quick question. How do you feel about using the character select artwork from Street Fighter IV for the infoboxes like this one? Or this?

Kenshiro and Raoh

Do you know for a fact that it is possible to fill those out with real world information, or is it just based on the fact that the series is fairly iconic in the manga industry? The funeral is definitely something to help establish notability, but its main purpose was to advertise the film and it obviously fits on the list. I can't really imagine that it even compares to an average sci-fi convention and the like, though. I know that sources are generally hard to find for Japanese characters, but it would be nice to have at least a base if I'm going to leave them alone. TTN (talk) 15:07, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sticking with my comparison, those are really the same kind of responses you'd get from any sort of convention. There were definitely people there for the character, but they really have as much impact on reception as comments from two hundred guys dressed up as Darth Vader. I looked on the Japanese article to see if they discussed any other impact of the characters, but the only thing was a slightly extended overview of the funeral (as far as I can tell with bad internet translations). An extremely cursory look over the three common google searches didn't reveal anything of interest either. I'm certainly not saying this is impossible like various other characters, but do you have any sort of idea of where you would look? TTN (talk) 18:00, 15 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Are you planning to work on them or would you care if I just reverted to the merge until such a time? TTN (talk) 15:10, 16 October 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"See also" is not needed

If you don't mind, myself and a few other editors do tend to feel that the "See also" section in an article is an unnecessary section for the most part, especially when it's just a category.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:34, 8 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: The Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening

I've decided to return to this article and try and get it through FAC once again.

Penny Arcade

Like the various other video game web comics, they have covered hundreds upon hundreds of different video games and related topics. I don't know if there has been any sort of specific discussion on it, but I'm certain that most people would agree that it would be undue weight to include such details in every one of those articles. TTN (talk) 22:52, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Were it something like Krakow, I'd agree with you. However given the individuals have been interviewed and featured in gaming magazines and have their own commercial games distributed through XBL last I checked, I'm more inclined to think they have a bit more weight.
In addition, while butchered, that particular strip was also in a magazine. However at this time I can't recall if it was PSM or not, and google isn't helping.
If you don't feel they should be considered a source for notability and reception TTN and think everyone would agree with you, hit up the vg project discussion. Best route to go.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 22:57, 27 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Half-Life characters

Just in case this is indicative of further deletions, can I ask you to refrain from trying to AfD any other HL characters? Whilst an utter mess at present, they are a surmountable problem. A number of editors are slowly working through cleaning up the Half-Life series, and as was the case with Locations of Half-Life, a merged character article is in the works, a'la Characters of StarCraft, Characters of Halo, etc. It tends to be useful to have the edit histories to work with when merging, so it would be helpful if they aren't deleted. -- Sabre (talk) 15:19, 28 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Gradius III

I'm sort of lost as to why a less recognizable image, a Japanese image, is better than the most recognizable image for the majority of the English-speaking world. The SNES version is the only version North America and PAL regions ever got, so why shouldn't we use it? And why shouldn't the article be about the most well-known version? - A Link to the Past (talk)

There's no question about the recognizability of the arcade Centipede, but for many people, they have no idea that there is an arcade version. To all English regions, the SNES version is the only version, and the article should use the SNES image. And as for consistency, there's no consistency rule, which is why having mostly ESRB-rated boxarts doesn't mean other related articles have to use the ESRB-rated boxarts. - A Link to the Past (talk) 04:08, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Could you please amplify on your comment that the article on Ciel grossly violated Notability?

As far as I can recall, I haven't ever commented on AFD's for them, so I'm a bit confused as to who exactly you think I am. Also, per your arguments that the Fate characters have no third party references, feel free to nominate all Street Fighter, Tekken, Guilty Gear, and all other fighting game genre articles. While the existence of an article shouldn't be used as rational for another article being kept, there's certainly nothing wrong with pointing out that other, more well known series are as bad or worse on sources, YET ARE STILL HERE. Perhaps they should be removed. Nezu Chiza (talk) 17:12, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If crappy articles will and should be dealt with, why is it a bad idea to deal with them? Your reasoning is confusing in that you make the former claim, then toss out the latter, contradicting yourself. If the articles I pointed out need to be worked on...what's the problem? I was merely suggesting more work for you since you're concerned with article quality. Whether they're dealt with now, later, singly, or all at once shouldn't come into the discussion, should it? The fact remains that they do need to be dealt with, and I feel you're the man for the job. Nezu Chiza (talk) 18:57, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Tsukihime characters

Greetings,

I understand your opinions about the Tsukihime characters being merged, but since you said they failed WP:N grossly, if I restored the articles and somehow fixed it, would they be fine? I'm also a fan of the series myself, and I don't want some characters article to be deleted. And it's not like I'm trying to save some of my images or something. About the Fate/Stay Night characters, there are some characters with a small role but they do have articles, I'm glad that you have fix it.

Sorry if my English skill is bad, and thank you! OgasawaraSachiko (talk) 11:14, 1 December 2008 (UTC)

Eh, if you don't mind, I've just restored the article of Akiha Tohno as I believe she is one of the main heroin in Tsukihime. If it doesn't suit you, please clean it up if you want to. OgasawaraSachiko (talk) 16:10, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Carmelita Fox

Please note that the character does get a number of references on Google News, which I have begun adding to the article. Sincerely, --A NobodyMy talk 17:44, 1 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fate/stay night, Tsukihime characters

Hey, thanks on the withdrawal of Saber (Fate/stay night) from the AfD. Per my comments there, the only other characters that really assert notability are Shirō Emiya, Archer (Fate/stay night) and Rin Tōsaka, so feel free to AfD the rest. As for the Tsukihime characters, Shiki Tohno and Arcueid Brunestud are the only ones that really assert notability (see [1], [2], [3], [4], [5], [6]), so the rest can be AfD'd if you want (a merge to List of Tsukihime characters is probably what will result).

Talim

Just stopping by to leave a quick note because I know you are a regular contributor. It appears that you are engaged in a edit war on Talim. I ask that you take your concerns to the articles talk page, or report disruptive users instead of continually reverting them. Happy editing. Tiptoety talk 23:42, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yep, looking into the history of the other user it is clear he is the more disruptive party. I have left him a warning, and any further disruption or edit warring will be met with a block. Cheers, Tiptoety talk 00:01, 3 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ultima characters

Hey, I just noticed you put Minax (Ultima) up for deletion. I spent some time a while back cleaning up some Ultima characters—if you're interested, there's a big job with The Companions of the Avatar, List of Ultima characters, and List of characters based on developers in Ultima series that need some attention, and potenially Avatar (Ultima) as well. Let me know if you feel like working on it and maybe we can tackle it together. At a bare minimum, the list based on developers needs to be merged into a character list (and referenced if possible), but the current structure of these articles needs to be rethought. List of Ultima characters is really just a couple of tables. Pagrashtak 15:55, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Why you merged Lilith from Darkstalkers to the minor characters article? I don't think she's a minor character, since she appeared in almost every Darkstalkers games and others from Capcom. I would leave Morrigan, Lilith, Demitri, Hsien-Ko, Felicia and Baby Bonnie Hood because they are the only prominent characters that appeared in other media, such as anime, manga an videogames, etc. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 190.139.122.85 (talk) 19:04, 6 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Small review on "Scribblenauts"?

Could you provide a small review on Scribblenauts' quality? - A Link to the Past (talk) 01:55, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nah, you gave plenty of help. Unfortunately, we've only got the IGN interview for information so far, and the information in the article is limited to what was in that interview. - A Link to the Past (talk) 03:41, 7 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door

Me and User:New Age Retro Hippie were wondering how this came to be rated as an A-class article, considering that there's no recorded A-class review on the talk page. I decided to delay the demotion until I've heard what you have to say about it, in case there has been some sort of misunderstanding. Cheers.
