==Hey==
Blast from the past i know. Was thinking of you today, Stephen R Marsh has a group on facebook where he's developing a companion for B/X, thought you might be interested.You might even be in there.  Um.  I wish I knew how to link you to it.

== "Review" links ==

Again, it's still not helpful to add external links to "Reviews" for boardgames, especially when [https://en.wikipedia.org/enwiki/w/index.php?title=Facts_in_Five&diff=prev&oldid=1194304454 those links] are to some kind of catalogue entry that just gives a neutral one-sentence description of the game and where to buy it from. That might be a useful source for production information about the game, but it's not a review.

A "Reception" section is definitely the right way to approach this. [[User:Belbury|Belbury]] ([[User talk:Belbury|talk]]) 11:10, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

But I got a pleasant surprise, Trekkies. The game is really quite good. First Contact has an intriguing plot. Starfleet Command picks up a superpulse originating from a faroff galaxy and signaling the presence of a heretofore unknown alien race. Your mission as Capt. James T. Kirk is to contact the aliens before the Klingons do. To avoid Klingon suspicion, you're sent on a cover mission to the coronation of the king of Gothica."</li>

Most of the situations generally require very little effort, a few actions at most, to resolve them. Even the end game, with its five puzzles to solve, doesn’t take too much effort. ... Plotting is very loose, and seems to have been designed to make it easier for the player to solve the problems, rather than to provide any real challenges. "</li>

== Great Library of Greyhawk ==

Hey there, BOZ!! 
Just wanted to say "hey"!

So, I'm sure you recall, but a few years ago, the ''Great Library of Greyhawk'' wiki on Caonfire! went down due to software not being updated, and a massive amount of spam accounts and spam articles. 

Anyway, a few years ago (2018) the wiki was moved to a new host, and has been growing and flourishing over at [https://greyhawkonline.com/ Greyhawk Online]. So, I thought I would invite you to visit us there, since you used to be pretty active on that wiki. ... we've even exported some of your edits from here on Wikipedia to be on the GLoG!  We'd love to have a fan who's as great at writing and editing as you are back as a registered User on our wiki! 

([https://greyhawkonline.com/greyhawkwiki ''Great Library'' link])

It'll be great to see you!  Take care, and I hope you have a '''great''' day!  — [[User:IcarusATB|IcarusATB]] ([[User talk:IcarusATB|talk]]) 15:13, 7 February 2024 (UTC)

== G.I. Joe articles ==

So, you have said that the G.I. Joe character articles I redirected need improvement. Thing is, I don't think there's that much that could be ''used'' to improve them. There are a ''lot'' of G.I. Joe characters, and most aren't going to be notable.

:Sorry for not replying sooner. To be honest, I did not think there was much of a point in discussing this with you, as I believed you were simply going to continue to edit war to get your way no matter what anyone else said to you. Since your IP range has been blocked for a week, hopefully when you come back you will figure out a better way to interact with other editors.

== Kitty Pryde  ==

I listen to this soundtrack quite often, can recite most of the lyrics from memory. I don't know how to cite my own extensive knowledge on the subject. Why do you continue to remove this factual information?

Kitty Pryde is referenced in "Missing Link" by Del the Funky Homosapien and Dinosaur Jr, on the Judgement Night soundtrack. 
"..Bowing, praising, 
now when I phase in
Like Kitty Pride
City wide.." [[Special:Contributions/2605:8D80:5C1:2D8A:4B81:8D8D:A391:EE92|2605:8D80:5C1:2D8A:4B81:8D8D:A391:EE92]] ([[User talk:2605:8D80:5C1:2D8A:4B81:8D8D:A391:EE92|talk]]) 18:19, 21 February 2024 (UTC)

:And why is this important enough to mention in the article at all? Please provide a citation to a [[WP:RS|reliable source]] who can indicate why this is important to mention in the article in the first place, and I will be happy to let it stand. [[User:BOZ|BOZ]] ([[User talk:BOZ#top|talk]]) 18:22, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
::1) it's just as important as mentioning the reference on Weezers blue album.
::2) your request confuses me;
::I could cite genius lyrics or AZ lyrics or a multitude of other lyric sites? However they won't make it any more, or less relevant and or "important" if you deem it not to be. [[Special:Contributions/2605:8D80:5C1:2D8A:4B81:8D8D:A391:EE92|2605:8D80:5C1:2D8A:4B81:8D8D:A391:EE92]] ([[User talk:2605:8D80:5C1:2D8A:4B81:8D8D:A391:EE92|talk]]) 18:43, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
:::Citing the lyrics is not what I am talking about. If you can find an article from Rolling Stone or some other source that deals with music saying, "Oh wow, this song Missing Link, I love how they mention Kitty Pryde in the lyrics because that really brings attention to a popular comic book character." Something like that, to show why it is important. If no such source exists, then I don't see why we need to mention a very trivial name drop. [[User:BOZ|BOZ]] ([[User talk:BOZ#top|talk]]) 18:58, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
::"In addition to assuming good faith, encourage others to assume good faith by demonstrating your own good faith. You can do this by articulating your honest motives and by making edits that show your willingness to compromise, interest in improving Wikipedia, adherence to policies and guidelines, belief in the veracity of your edits, avoidance of gaming the system, and other good-faith behavior. Showing good faith is not required, but it aids smooth and successful interactions with editors"
::I feel this is an interesting tidbit of information. And truly believe any other person that happens to peruse the kitty pride page and comes across it might also think it's interesting, especially if they are a fan of hip hop or funk music. 
:: 
::also, the citation for the edit on "in the garage" by Weezer off of the Blue Album is literally genius lyrics, so why would it not be sufficient for Missing Link? is it because Weezer is white and Del is Black?

:::I actually went and removed the Weezer one as well, as that is equally trivial. [[User:BOZ|BOZ]] ([[User talk:BOZ#top|talk]]) 19:24, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
::::Ok then. Thanks for the civil debate. I think both lyrical references ARE interesting. But you do your wiki cop thing. [[Special:Contributions/142.183.237.97|142.183.237.97]] ([[User talk:142.183.237.97|talk]]) 19:28, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
:::::Never said they weren't interesting, just that they are trivial. Plenty of trivial things are interesting. That doesn't mean we need to add every single thing to an article here. A mention like that to me would make more sense on an article about the songs themselves. [[User:BOZ|BOZ]] ([[User talk:BOZ#top|talk]]) 19:30, 21 February 2024 (UTC)
::::::Furthermore; if citations and trivial information are that much a cause of concern, I request you skim through the entire KP page right away because I see a lot of it, it's a GD free for all in there.

== Rhino, Shocker and Sandman==

Aleksei was supposed to be in ITSV (616B) also and not just ATSV with the most comic book looking design to be in a movie
He was supposed to appear in Peter B Parker's backstory along with Venom and Hulk
He also is referenced to be a member of Sinister Six in Earth-42 (he owns - Rhino Casino)

Shocker appeared in ITSV in a photo in 1610B along with Hammerhead (who was in ATSV), Chameleon (who also was in ATSV) and Enforcers (Only as AU in ATSV, also Ox never appeared instead Big Man was a part of the team (Ox was in the concept art though)) and in ATSV as a prisoner from an unknown universe 
Shocker also exists in Earth-42, one of the villains who ain't a part of Sinister Six (his company isn't named in the movie and only the logo is seen)

Sandman is also referenced to be a member (also in concept arts) of the Sinister Six (he owns - The Sandman (seems to a bar or something), Sandman (a watch company) and Sandman Slots and Resort
https://intothespiderverse.fandom.com/wiki/Earth-42 (all of their companies are there, Shocker's company's name is sepculative though) [[Special:Contributions/122.171.21.196|122.171.21.196]] ([[User talk:122.171.21.196|talk]]) 06:55, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

== Goblin and Doc Ock ==

616B Goblin aappears in the Peter's origin flashback scene (hand only)
The main Goblin in ATSV is the one from the Atari game
A variant of him from an unknown universe is seen above Gog with a glider in ATSV (doesn't match any of the concept arts by Kris Anka, so someone else had to have designed him). Also a glider (Unknown if it is 2099 like Vulture's Arm peice/Multifactor's Jaw or AU like the three Doc Ock tentacles, despite being in the concept art of the lab, ots the only thing not mentioned about). There one more supposed Goblin holding a pumpkin bomb (could also be Hobgoblin but seems like Jesús Alonso Iglesias was the only one who worked on Hobgoblin)

Doc Ock appears again in Peter's flashback as tentacles only and later in the flashback there's a photo of him along with Kingpin, Rose, Hammerhead, Mysterio and supposedly Silvermane, can't really tell (Tombstone and Goblin are also there, there are also some other unidentifyable photos)
12 different variants of Doc Ock appear (two as tentacles only) (one being comic book accurat-ish) (10 of them being Otto) appear as prisoners, one being Pirate Doc Ock who is female (Boomernag and Clam are also female in the movie btw) plus Superior Spider-Man (this varant uses tentacles instead of the normal arms). A pic of Lego Doc Ock appears on a newspaper and a hologram of 616 comic Dock Ock appears with the line from No Way Home
He also is referenced to member of Sinister Six in Earth-42 (He owns two comapnies- Eight Ock and Oct 8). According to the concept art original instead of him and Rhino, Goblin and Mysterio were meant to be members [[Special:Contributions/122.171.21.196|122.171.21.196]] ([[User talk:122.171.21.196|talk]]) 07:17, 13 March 2024 (UTC)

== Draft categories ==

I'm fully aware of that template.

The thing is, however, it isn't the same amount of work either way: it takes ''more'' time to wrap categories in the template than it does to remove them: removing is just a handful of clicks on the minus signs in HotCat, and thus only takes a few seconds, while wrapping can be more complicated: it requires opening the page, finding the categories (which aren't always in the place they're supposed to be, because sometimes novice editors place them in unconventional places in the article, and sometimes there are even ''multiple'' groups of categories in ''more'' than one place in the page), and typing the template out by hand. 

So categories that take just a few seconds to remove can take anywhere up to a full minute to wrap — but the polluted category reports only run once per week, meaning that by the time the report runs there are ''several hundred'' categorized drafts to clean up all in one shot. Which in turn means that it's already going to take me a few hours to get through all of them ''even'' the quicker way, and would take me ''days'' to get all of them cleaned up if I took the longer way. But I don't have a responsibility to dedicate days and days to the task without doing anything else, which means I need to be able to get in and out of each page in the absolute shortest amount of time possible.

I mean, sure, if one comes across just ''one'' or ''two'' categorized drafts, then taking a small amount of extra time to wrap them instead of removing them isn't that big a burden. But when one has to power through ''hundreds'' of categorized drafts all at once, the extra time piles up into a much, much longer project than anybody actually has a responsibility to take on. I've asked numerous times in the past for a bot to automatically disable categories on drafts (literally 90 per cent of the job would be eliminated just by a category-disabler bot running through {{cl|All content moved from mainspace to draftspace}} a couple times a day), so as to vastly reduce the amount of time that human editors actually have to invest in it — but it still hasn't happened, which means humans still have to do it. So those of us who take on the job have to be allowed to do whatever it takes to minimize the amount of time we actually have to devote to it.

:Got it. I'll have to keep adding the template myself then. [[User:BOZ|BOZ]] ([[User talk:BOZ#top|talk]]) 16:41, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
::I should also add that sometimes people file drafts in categories that would be wrong ones even if the page were in mainspace — for example, just a few minutes ago I found a draft about a real-world park in Argentina filed in {{cl|Parks and Recreation}}, which is for the Amy Poehler sitcom and not for real-world parks. So that's not a category that would need to be left behind in disabled form, because the page wouldn't belong there anyway — and since editors frequently move drafts to mainspace themselves without waiting for AFC review, "just let the AFC reviewer figure out that the category is wrong" doesn't work as a solution to that issue either. So even if categories are just being disabled, sometimes removing some of them is still warranted anyway. [[User:Bearcat|Bearcat]] ([[User talk:Bearcat|talk]]) 16:50, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

== Rocky Mountain Trophy Hunter: Interactive Big Game Hunting ==

Howdy,

Let's discuss the [[Rocky Mountain Trophy Hunter: Interactive Big Game Hunting|Rocky Mountain Trophy Hunter]] article and the adaptation section. 

My rationale for mentioning the GBC port in the lead part of the article comes from many other articles doing this. See [[Need for Speed: ProStreet]], [[50 Cent: Bulletproof]], and [[Tom Clancy's Ghost Recon Advanced Warfighter 2]]. Thus, I believe the adaptation belongs in the lead. 

As for the expansions, I agree they belong in their own section since that's how other, larger articles do it. [[Battlefield 2]] comes to mind. 

I am currently attempting to get an article on Xantera off the ground, and find citable reviews for their games. If I can get enough sources for RMTH, I will create a '''Game Boy Color version''' subheading, but as it stands, I see no justification to combine its mention with additional content for the PC version.

== Miner 2049er Thanks ==

Thank you for all the extra reviews on ''Miner 2049er''. Not bad for a game I only really tried playing around 2023. :) I have since removed the ones I know we can't really use (Video Game Critic, per [[Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Sources]]). I tried to pull out some more specific quotes as so many reviews just say "what else can be said" or similar terms. Not sure about woodgrainwonderland.com as I know MobyGames uses it for reviews, but it seems very...bloggy? Not sure if it would muster as a reliable source. I'll try to look at the foreign language reviews as well as I find those really interesting, and hope I can pull something from it, but the reception section is already getting huge! Any suggestions would be great, but no pressure as you've already done a ton of work. Thank you again as I've been feeling really out of it for editing wikipedia, gestures like this really help.

==''Dark Champions'' vs ''Dark Champions: Heroes of Vengeance''==
I got interested in the ''[[Dark Champions: Heroes of Vengeance]]'' wiki for some reason. When I started looking at how to improve it, I ran across the separate wiki for ''[[Dark Champions]]'' (which apparently had two editions, in 1993 and 2004.) In reading the article, I assumed the 1993 edition of ''Dark Champions'' was the first in the series, and ''Heroes of Vengeance'' (also 1993) was a supplement. But the more I started to dig into it, the more puzzled I became. I can't find any articles for ''Dark Champions'' published in 1993, only for the 2004 edition. The only ''Dark Champions'' publication I can find that was released in 1993 is ''Dark Champions: Heroes of Vengeance''. So here's what I think is the actual timeline: 
* 1993: ''Dark Champions: Heroes of Vengeance'' is released (Hero System 4). Still the costumed superhero RPG like ''Champions'', but the PCs are vigilantes of vengeance (like Batman).
* 2004: ''Dark Champions'' is released (Hero System 5). It has nothing to do with the 1993 publication. Instead, it is a modern-world action-adventure RPG more aligned with Indiana Jones and Lara Croft (although there is a supplement that returns to the costumed vigilantes genre.)

I think some of the confusion lies in the fact that several reviewers in 1993 shortened ''Dark Champions: Heroes of Vengeance'' to ''Dark Champions'' (such as Mark Arsenault in ''Shadis'' #9:p.36, or Jean Belcesak in ''Casus Belli'' #79:p.17 -- although the illustration beside the ''Casus Belli'' article clearly shows the cover for ''Dark Champions: Heroes of Vengeance''.) 

So if my timeline is correct, both articles need some clean up to differentiate them from each other. Does this make sense to you? Do you have any further info to add to this before I get started? [[User:Guinness323|Guinness323]] ([[User talk:Guinness323|talk]]) 05:14, 5 September 2024 (UTC)

:@[[User:Guinness323|Guinness323]], huh, I suppose I didn't realize that before.  Yes, I'd say you have it correct based on my own searches. I think ''HoV'' was just a ''Champions'' supplement in 1993, and the ''Dark Champions'' book in 2004 was more of its own thing. I feel like the two articles should be more separate and cover each of those aspects individually, but reference each other ("this came later" and "that came first") if you follow what I mean? I'm OK with you just doing your thing on them, but I'd say we would be best to have one article cover mostly the 1993 book and the other article mostly cover the 2004 book.

== Advice on What Page to "Some basic properties of nds rolls" (if anywhere) ==

Hi there, BOZ!

I thought quite a while before adding the "basic properties" subsection to Dice because of exactly the concern you raised (too detailed; better put elsewhere). I did finally put it in DIce as it seemed the best option. Before I did, I searched for other articles in which to put the section's info, but could find none that quite fit; the closest I found Dice Notation, but that article really was about notation, not properties. In your comments re reverting the entry, you indicate that there is an article where this information would better fit....could you tell me its name? I'd like to check it out! 

More generally, given your long experience with this area and Wikipedia editing and administration, I'd also much appreciate you advice more generally as to where this information would best be placed on Wikipedia, if at all. The info does seem useful to d20 players (it has been to folks I play with) and I think some folks more generally (those interested in probability theory, for instance). Still, the topic does not seem important enough to warrant its own page...but maybe I'm wrong about that. Or perhaps the info is too esoteric to include in Wikipedia at all? Of maybe there should  be a more general discussion of this issue in some appropriate forum (e.g., a page's Talk page)? Any guidance would be much appreciated. [[User:Eclectucator|Eclectucator]] ([[User talk:Eclectucator|talk]]) 20:47, 16 September 2024 (UTC)

:If you look at the top of the section on [[Dice]] that you had edited, you will see a link to the page [[Dice notation]] and I think that would be a more appropriate place to address the topic in a more detailed way. To be honest, I don't know if any article is an appropriate place for the level of detail you were adding, but if you add anything at all I think it should be there. If you're still not sure, you might want to try starting a new section on [[Talk:Dice]] and see what kind of responses you get there.

== Invitation to participate in a research ==

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Wikipedia, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this '''[https://wikimediafoundation.limesurvey.net/962595?lang=en anonymous survey]'''.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its [[m:Special:MyLanguage/Research:Wikipedia Administrator Recruitment, Retention, and Attrition|Meta page]] and view its [[wmf:Special:MyLanguage/Legal:Administrator Experiences 2024 Survey Privacy Statement|privacy statement]] .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

[[mw:Special:MyLanguage/Wikimedia Research|WMF Research Team]]
