Talk:List of Xbox games compatible with Xbox 360

Hi, you can help us to make this table? Looks very complicated, I think this is easy for you :) Thanks! --Brazil4Linux 12:25, 20 November 2005 (UTC)

Very Thanks! It's perfect! --Brazil4Linux 14:21, 21 November 2005 (UTC)

Information on Aya Brea

I believe the Parasite Eve article could use some more elaboration- I plan to add a page on the Ultimate being, terms for Neo Midocondrian cretures (and they're articficial counterparts). What do you think of that idea..? Also, could you give me a good website where I could find some good art of golems, among others in the PE universe..? My GOOGLE search was moot. Also, can we get someone to elaborate more on the story in PE2..? That section seems like a stub. Finally, I posted a few questons on Aya Brea's talk page- culd we get someone more well versed in the events of the game(s) to answer them..? Thanks!-MegamanZero 23:05 20, November 2005 (UTC)

Ianblair23's RfA

G'day Thunderbrand,

I would like to thank you for supporting me on my RfA. It closed with the final tally of 57/0/0. I can only hope I can live up to the expectations that this wonderful community of ours demands from each of its administrators. If you ever need anything, please just let me know. Cheers! -- Ianblair23 (talk) 02:11, 22 November 2005 (UTC)

Infobox

I don't really have a problem with the color. It was proposed a while back, but didn't have much support. It should probably be discussed first, but like I said I don't really care. I noticed he didn't change the optional fields though.. so those are still purple. I'd do it, but I don't have the time at the moment. K1Bond007 22:25, 28 November 2005 (UTC)

why does this pic need deletion, have you actually seen the article?

is it because the image is too small?

If it is...then it is free to be deleted, BUT must require same image, but bigger resolution/size >x<ino 15:08, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

Well done soldier!, you completed a task! >x<ino 18:06, 7 December 2005 (UTC)

Splinter Cell

Horrible timing, huh? If it is indeed the name of the game then we should probably close the AFD vote, then do a move/delete with Splinter Cell 4. If we can close it. Technically I think we can speedy delete it as page move (after I retract my vote), but I'm not really up on the AFD process -at least concerning admins. I've yet to see this name confirmed anywhere. Are you sure the magazine is stating this as fact? The only source I've seen on this is an unofficial fansite which is assuming this is the name due to a recent trademark registering. Chances are it'll be named this, but if it's not official then we probably shouldn't move it just yet. Let me know what you want to do. If it is named that, I'll retract my vote. K1Bond007 04:40, 8 December 2005 (UTC)

The article in question should have it's AFD closed soon so I'm sure you can take whatever action is necessary. Should happen today or tomorrow. K1Bond007 04:32, 12 December 2005 (UTC)

Image placement vote

Hello, it's MegamanZero, and I've gotten into a conflict with the Orgy over his needless image placement and excessive quotes on the Iori Yagami page. So, I've decided to hold a vote (like on the Ryu charaacter page) concerning which version should be used. The vote can be found here. Please vote your opinion on the matter and thanks for your time! -MegamanZero 18:05, 13 December 2005 (UTC)

thanks for fixing your rfa page

thanks for catching that one. At some point I was removing Hi there. In case you didn't know, when you add content to talk pages and Wikipedia pages that have open discussion, you should sign your posts by typing four tildes ( ~~~~ ) at the end of your comment. If you can't type the tilde character, you should click on the signature button located above the edit window. This will automatically insert a signature with your name and the time you posted the comment. This information is useful because other editors will be able to tell who said what, and when. Thank you! instances from pages which contained (procedure for deletiogn templates), but I had to use an external editor in order to do the search-remove process faster. I guess I made a mistake putting back the wrong rfa page under yours. I apologize. -- ( drini's page ☎ ) 06:00, 24 December 2005 (UTC)

GCOTW

The collaboration thing ends soon and I was wondering for the statistics I do at the History page, do I count the edits made at List of MMORPGs/Temp? I'm guessing you are gonna paste in into the actual article? Cause at the actual List of MMORPGs page people have edited it during the timeframe.

Also, congratulations on becoming an admin! Thunderbrand 23:58, 25 December 2005 (UTC)

I would count all the edits on both versions. I'm not sure whether it is better to move the Temp page to the article (leaving the history of that page in tact) or just copy/pasting the content over. I should have a little time tomorrow between stuffing myself full of food to take a look at it ;) Thanks for supporting my adminship. Hope you had a nice Christmas!

Star Fox Assault years

Well, on the back of SFAss it says that it took place 'several years' after SFAdv, clearly meaning that it wasn't just one year. However, in video games, "severa;" could be 2 or 99. Most fan sites listed the proper amount of time as 3 years, which is what I put. Was the information wrong? (dee 03:43, 5 January 2006 (UTC))

Oh, I don't read the manual. Oops. Sorry, I just wanted to correct what I thought was 'wrong' information on one of my favorite series. (second only to Kingdom Hearts) I'll try to be more careful about my info from now on. (dee 03:48, 5 January 2006 (UTC))

Wikipedia:Counter Un-civility Unit

Wikipedia:Counter Un-civility Unit is a new wiki-project I have thought up. I was wondering if you thought it was a good idea and if you wanted to join up. I need some users backing me before I construct a wikiproject, and you seem to share my views on subjects such as concensus, civilty, etc. Reply on my talkpage if you're interested. Thanks, -MegamanZero|Talk 16:38, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

Many thanks for your support on my request for adminiship, I'm sure you'll be glad to know the final result was 92/1/0. I am now an administrator and (as always) if I do anything you have issue with, please talk about it with me. --Alf ^melmac 11:03, 8 January 2006 (UTC)

Re

Part of the problem with using templates that have a category added to it (this problem for example) is that Wikipedia's server cache or whatever you want to call it (I'm afraid I don't know exactly what it is) doesn't update the category until you edit the page. So if you change a category in a template, you have to actually "touch" those articles for it to be removed from the category. That's the only way of solving the problem to my knowledge. I deal a lot with WP:CFD and once in a while we get some like this. So.. just edit the article and it'll be removed or do nothing and it'll work itself out. K1Bond007 06:09, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Salutations Thunderbrand. Me and new user Tenshouzan are working on overhalling the Virtual On video game page, and we just completed the new Virturoids page. Could you look at it and provide some feedback..? It'd be much appreciated. Thanks. -MegamanZero|Talk 19:25, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

My apologies. I was requesting opinions form Jacoplane and K1 as well and simply copied and pasted, forgetting to change the name. My mistake :) Anyways concerning the category, what category should we use..? -MegamanZero|Talk 20:34, 12 January 2006 (UTC)

Re: Just wondering...

Eeek, sorry, haven't checked it lately. Nope, that's not me; I don't own a 360. I haven't really thought about getting one (mainly because I'm quite broke at the moment), and in all honesty, if I did, I'd have almost zero time to play Xbox Live (I'm in junior year, so I have to do the college and SAT junk). But if I ever get my hands on one, I'll let you know. If you have DS or PSP, I play those online sometimes. (And Warcraft III, but not so much lately.)

Oh, and my midterm's on Tuesday...damn physics. :) Robert 00:25, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Thanks! (And if you get a DS, get Mario Kart; it's pretty good online.) Robert 00:30, 16 January 2006 (UTC)

Watch out for double redirects

Your move of List of minor characters in the Star Fox series created quite a few double redirects, just a little note to keep in mind about future page moves. I've sorted them now, have fun. - Hahnchen 17:28, 20 January 2006 (UTC)

Wind Waker cover art

Thanks for helping out with the Wind Waker cover art. I was hoping you could answer something for me: my copy of WW looks more like the previous version, with the duller gold and starburst design. Are there two versions of the box? --Pagrashtak 06:10, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I noticed that too. The only reason I uploaded it was because the original one seemed a bit too low quality for a Featured article candidate. My copy of the game, too, is the duller one with the starburst thing, so I dunno if there are two covers or it is just an "enhanced" version. Maybe we should replace it with one that was scanned? Thunderbrand 17:20, 2 February 2006 (UTC)

I agree that the previous version was too low-res. I searched for a better version of the dull version online, but couldn't find a good one; the brighter version is much more common, even appearing on Amazon or IGN pages. If someone could scan in the dull version that would be great. --Pagrashtak 02:25, 3 February 2006 (UTC)

Image Tagging Image:Paddlecontrollers.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Paddlecontrollers.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is therefore unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then you need to argue that we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then you should also specify where you found it, i.e., in most cases link to the website where you got it, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then you must also add one. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then you can use {{GFDL}} to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, please read fair use, and then use a tag such as {{Non-free fair use in|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, please check that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Longhair 07:50, 7 February 2006 (UTC)

Image copyright problem with Image:TesIIIbox.jpg

Thanks for uploading Image:TesIIIbox.jpg. However, the image may soon be deleted unless we can determine the copyright holder and copyright status. The Wikimedia Foundation is very careful about the images included in Wikipedia because of copyright law (see Wikipedia's Copyright policy).

The copyright holder is usually the creator, the creator's employer, or the last person who was transferred ownership rights. Copyright information on images is signified using copyright templates. The three basic license types on Wikipedia are open content, public domain, and fair use. Find the appropriate template in Wikipedia:Image copyright tags and place it on the image page like this: {{TemplateName}}.

Please signify the copyright information on any other images you have uploaded or will upload. Remember that images without this important information can be deleted by an administrator. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me. Thank you. BRossow 15:48, 16 February 2006 (UTC)

Re: Ich will page move

When you want to move a page, please do not cut and paste an article's contents into the new page. Doing so destroys a page's history. Use the "move" button up at the top of the page. Thanks. Thunderbrand 03:01, 22 February 2006 (UTC)

I'm sorry, I moved few articles this way before I figured this out. As I've read in How to fix cut and paste moves it's quite a complicated process to sort this out, so once again, sorry. Jogers 13:45, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
