RE: Thanks for your help!

No worries, and when you made those article, the category didn't exist I only made it recently :P Yoshi876 (talk)

Question

Are the images you're uploading official? Yoshi876 (talk)

• They were posted on Miiverse by Mr. Otani (the producer of Mario & Luigi: Dream Team Bros.) and Mr. Kubota (from AlphaDream). Agentdave7 (talk) 16:59, 11 August 2013 (EDT)

Okay, thanks, you may want to say that in the Aboutfile if you haven't. Yoshi876 (talk)

Where's the Aboutfile? I have posted links to the actual Miiverse posts on each image. Agentdave7 (talk) 17:02, 11 August 2013 (EDT)

A template that will organize the files look.. see {{Aboutfile}} for help. And Oh. Please give good names to images you upload--

17:04, 11 August 2013 (EDT)

Some of the pictures are deleted or pending deletion. I don't understand. Sorry about the names of files I didn't know that you could change the names. Agentdave7 (talk) 17:06, 11 August 2013 (EDT)

When a file is moved it creates a redirect that needs to be deleted. The files remain. Yoshi876 (talk)

Don't worry, they are moved.. File:MLDT Concept Art Two.jpg, File:MLDT concept art.jpg, File:Bowser sprite MLDT.jpg--

17:15, 11 August 2013 (EDT)

Thanks for your help! I'll try to rename the last few images. Agentdave7 (talk) 17:16, 11 August 2013 (EDT)

Yoshi876 and Megadardery are the last 4 images correct? I added a better description to all the sprites. Agentdave7 (talk) 17:30, 11 August 2013 (EDT)

Looks fine to me. Yoshi876 (talk)

• Agentdave7, it's mii! Stickers4U!

UPDATES

Dude. Can't 'friend' you because I'm moving tomorrow. My internet is already set up where I live, but the drive will take 12 hours. Everything will be ready by Thursday, so I'll 'friend' you then!

RE: ML:DT Concept artwork

The one you uploaded yesterday should be deleted as the two new ones are in png format, which is preferable over the jpeg format in this case. Yoshi876 (talk)

No problem, and besides YoshiKong is as admin, he's meant to know what he's doing :P Yoshi876 (talk)

Reply

He's allowed to change it and add his signature. --driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 17:16, 13 August 2013 (EDT)

Altering other people's content is not allowed, so he'll have to do it.

--driftmaster130 (Talk • Edits) 17:28, 13 August 2013 (EDT)

RE:RE:RE: ML:DT Concept artwork=

No no no no no, I was talking to him.. I forget to make a new header. sorry if I caused confusion.--

17:35, 13 August 2013 (EDT) And next time, please don't insert YoshiKong's Signature, that confuse me that he is the one who posted it--

17:37, 13 August 2013 (EDT)

I don't like to em. jump in a discussion. So ya better contact YoshiKong Directly--

Re: Image question

Hello Agentdave7. No worries: I thought it would be best if the two artwork were separate files. In response to your question, I'm sure it would be good to keep all three files. We could create a new section in the gallery, perhaps titled "Miiverse development posts" or something along those lines. This could keep together all the images with the yella background, rather than sticking them with the actual solo sprites and models.

Shokora (talk · edits) 08:09, 15 August 2013 (EDT)

Re: Question

Yes, you can upload the images to the gallery. Be sure to give credit to the website you're getting the QR codes from as well. --FREAK ~Game Freak~ OUT!

The gallery would be the best place to put them. --FREAK ~Game Freak~ OUT!

Yep, everything looks good. --FREAK ~Game Freak~ OUT!

RE: Private Sandbox/Workspace?

I have this for my work, you should try creating your own. Yoshi876 (talk)

No problemo. Yoshi876 (talk)

RE: Since you're online here's a question

Links can be in italics, like here or here. Also please read, 4 on my page, thanks. Yoshi876 (talk)

You don't have to if you don't want to it's your thing. And I don't care if comments are unsigned on my talkpage, I'd like them to be signed but I can check histories to see who wants me. Yoshi876 (talk)

Only the dialouge, don't have stage directions. Yoshi876 (talk)

Yep, if it's in brackets, it's not needed. Yoshi876 (talk)

Looks good, but you may want to use the button templates. Yoshi876 (talk)

Dream Team Script

Hey, just wanted to say that you're doing a nice job with your script of Dream Team here. I'd like to point out that for easy readability, you should bold the characters' names and just have their lines un-italicized (Antasma: Like thees vor example! SCREEEK!). Elsewise, good work. Keep it up! --Zootalo (talk) 22:35, 25 August 2013 (EDT)

As per Turboo, it's fine with me, as the quotes for the games here are also italicized. Seeing as how you've also broken up the dialogues as they appear in the speech balloons, I'd say you're good to go! Now to post my Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon script... --Zootalo (talk) 23:43, 25 August 2013 (EDT)

RE: Quick Question

I would say using italics is correct, since the Yoshi's Safari script uses italics as well. - Turboo (talk) 23:11, 25 August 2013 (EDT)

I think the brackets probably help the script make more sense; the Broggy scene is definitely a lot more coherent with them. Some of the scenes probably don't NEED brackets, but adding them shouldn't harm anything, so I'd say go for it. - Turboo (talk) 23:36, 25 August 2013 (EDT)

You're welcome. Good luck with finishing the script! - Turboo (talk) 23:57, 25 August 2013 (EDT)

Potential personal image

Hello. Did you wish to keep this as a personal image? It doesn't have much use asides from the userspace. If you wish, you could probably link it via URL if you didn't want it to take up one of your personal images.

Shokora (talk · edits) 03:03, 27 August 2013 (EDT)

Re: Why'd you remove the LC:U Image?

"Additional image" means more on the image related representive. Any Mario refs image are included.

Re: Image Question:

To link an image from an external URL, simply copy and paste the image URL onto it's own line into an edit box. As far as I know, these can't be re-sized or a caption added.

Hey, awesome. Thanks for the tip!

Uploads

It works properly, you need to clear your cache (Ctrl + F5 on Firefox) or wait a while for it to show up. Please don't keep continuously uploading and reverting it; just keep it on the 480 x 480 version. - Turboo (talk) 20:30, 7 September 2013 (EDT)

That's because your cache is still showing the old version. Reuploading it and clearing it should work. - Turboo (talk) 20:36, 7 September 2013 (EDT)

I can't do that, sorry. You'll have to ask a sysop. - Turboo (talk) 20:44, 7 September 2013 (EDT)

RE: Deleting a image/file?

Yes.

re:Deleting a image/file?

Yeah. --Glowsquid (talk) 20:57, 7 September 2013 (EDT)

Userspace

This userspace warning was incorrectly given out; removed by Tucayo.

--™ The 'Shroom 23:02, 7 September 2013 (EDT)

Special:Contributions is a far better indicator when giving a userspace warning. Taking your last 100 edits into account, you only have 16 Main + File edits. It's just a small heads-up. --™ The 'Shroom 23:34, 7 September 2013 (EDT)

You're right, I apologize for the confusion. --™ The 'Shroom 13:49, 8 September 2013 (EDT)

RE: I have a question, can you help?

I'm afraid I know little to nothing about uploading, sorry. Yoshi876 (talk)

Not sure whether they can help, but the two most experienced users I can see are M&SG (talk) and Time Turner (talk). Yoshi876 (talk)

I'm flattered that you consider me as an experienced user, though I wasn't very knowledgeable on this particular aspect. Also, as a tip, you indent comments by using colons (:) and not asterisks (*). Hello, I'm Time Turner.

RE: Year of Luigi Sound Selection

That's great. Does the CD itself have the song names? If so, are the ones I listed the correct names? Tails777 Talk to me!

Yep, you're doing it right. Tails777 Talk to me!

No prob. Songs can be uploaded so long as they're in OGG format. Tails777 Talk to me!

I actually know the names of the songs, the ones I listed the first time were the American names. Plus the song entitled "Try Try Again!", that's the Real World battle theme, the one on the sound track is the Dream World battle theme. Tails777 Talk to me!

Re: 2 Super Bells?

If you look closely, the two artworks are different. They sit on the same angle, but the eyes are looking in different directions.

• Gold Bell Artwork - Super Mario 3D World.png
• 

It doesn't really matter which one is used as the main image on the Super Bell page. The one that's already there seems fine.

Yes, I don't see why not. The gallery is the best place to keep all the game artwork together.

IMAGES

Hey Dave! Thanks for all your help lately! I was wondering if you could shrink this image down to 100px. Thanks! Stickers4U (talk)

RE: What do you mean belongs on Forums?

It was the comment as to why they are tiaras, personally I don't think it will benefit the article in any way and it seems more for a forum that a mainspace talk page. Yoshi876 (talk)

The problem is though, just thoughts mean speculation and that isn't allowed, even in talkpages. Yoshi876 (talk)

The way your comment was presente was very much forum based, just add it at the end of your original comment. Yoshi876 (talk)

Re: Image Deletion

I can't delete it, sorry; you'll have to ask a Sysop or Bureaucrat to do that. - Turboo (talk) 20:31, 1 November 2013 (EDT)

Image question

Hello. Um, out of curiosity how did you manage to obtain images such as this?

So, wait what's Flower Town?

Okay, thanks for the clarification. So how do you capture and edit the images in such high quality?

Awesome work: keep 'em coming!

Shokora (talk · edits) 20:48, 1 November 2013 (EDT)

Image

If you don't want the image you blanked, just put the delete tag on it. Ztar Power (talk) 19:37, 4 November 2013 (EST)

If you blank it, the file still exists, so you have to ask an admin to delete it in order to get rid of it. Ztar Power (talk) 19:45, 4 November 2013 (EST)

File

You are aware file redirects are not encouraged and are generally deleted right? Yoshi876 (talk)

You're meant to relink, though don't have to worry about it unless you mind your sig being broken in places. Yoshi876 (talk)

Then go do that. Yoshi876 (talk)

Re: Personal Construction Banners?

Hello. About your idea, I doubt it's really necessary. We don't need to make it clear which user is working on a page: the history of that page can tell us that.

It's better if you don't use it. I've discussed it with the other admins, and the verdict was that the point of a wiki is that once it's out there, it's available for anyone to edit. It's acceptable to explain to other users that you're going to do something, and ask people not to snipe your edits and whatnot, but actually putting your name on an article is getting superfluous. If you don't want someone to mess with something if it's in progress, make the changes on a draft page.

No worries: you did the right thing by asking first. Also, on an unrelated note, how do you manage to extract content on those Flash webpages? The program that I previously used gives a black background, and you re-uploaded them without the background.

Shokora (talk · edits) 20:29, 8 November 2013 (EST)

Umm

You look like a Dopey and stupid critic at IGN. That's what Nintendo is trying to sue.
