video game box art

Just so you know, the preffered size for a cover art is 256px/257px in video games.
For example Image:Wishbringer game box cover.jpg is only 128px which is too small. If you like you can re-upload the image as 256px or 257px (257px being the best fit).
Other wise the image will be replaced with one of 257px ina png format.

Links in Zork I

In these edits to Zork I, you deleted several links with a summary of "Per disscussion at Wikiproject:Videogames - remove link". I'm assuming you're talking about Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games, since there is no Wikiproject:Videogames. Checking the page in question and the associated talk page, I'm not seeing any discussion of the websites in question. Could you please direct me to the discussion, so that I could review the deletions in the appropriate context? At the moment, I'm prone to re-add them, as some were valuable links. — Alan De Smet | Talk 23:42, 15 February 2008 (UTC)

Oil supply graph

Hi, I was looking at the graph you've updated, and noticed that the measurement is of supply, which is defined on the EIA website as "The production of crude oil (including lease condensate), natural gas plant liquids, and other liquids, and refinery processing gain (loss)." I'm assuming this also includes any oil refined from the oil in strategic reserves. Do you think you could make a graph specifically of crude oil production (what is extracted each time period from wells)? That would be a much more meaningful graph for the articles.

Also, going back an extra 10 or 15 years would be very illuminating and more indicative of long term trends. NJGW (talk) 05:20, 25 February 2008 (UTC)

Gary Gygax publisher of Dragon Magazine

there is some info on the talk page regarding the claim to him being publisher of the magazine during the time mentioned in the article. your help on that talk page to format it into proper citations and such would be very helpful. you may have seen this already in your watchlist, but i wanted to make sure you were notified in order to make this article better and to figure out how to cite this mess of facts. thanks. shadzar-talk 04:03, 12 March 2008 (UTC)

'S' missing from pangram in font samples

A minor correction for your otherwise very nice font sample images, e.g., Font_Sample_-_Liberation_Sans.svg: there's a slight (but common) mistake in your quotation of the famous jumping fox pangram, with the result that it lacks an 's'. The more correct version has "jumps" rather than "jumped". Just thought you might like to make that minor fix. Best regards. Gahs (talk) 15:29, 26 March 2008 (UTC)

Mark Evanier

Alan De Smet,

My contribution to the Mark Evanier Wikipedia page was deleted. It read as follows:

==Quotes== Following up on the clever, truly all-ages Shrek might have been an impossibility, so I can’t judge the Dark Horse comic sequel too harshly. However, this take on the characters by renowned Groo co-writer Mark Evanier and unfamiliar (to me) artists Bachs and Fernandez is just a shallow echo of the funny, pop-culture laden movie that spawned the culture.

Please advise if it was improperly formatted or if you deleted it for some other reason.
