Hello there. If you haven't noticed, I kind of left. Just no longer amusing to edit WP any more, and I no longer have the password to this account. This is still here for posterity, though.

== Infobox CVG syntax guide ==
I began drafting a syntax guide to go along with aforementioned infobox and I'm inquiring if there's any interest in one being made.

== Request if possible ==

I've been working on the [[UNATCO]] article. I've been trying to gut it of fan speculation, remove the factual sounding fiction, and condense it into a factual correct article from the perspective of outside world. I'm thinking of eventually condensing all these Deus Ex fictional organization into one article.

To get to my request, I was wondering if it's possible for you to resurrect the old [[Silhouette (Deus Ex)]] article into my user space. I want to see if there's anything worth saving. I would appreciate it much if you could do this. --[[User:Mitaphane|Mitaphane]] <sub>[[User talk:Mitaphane|talk]]</sub> 01:07, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

== Comics Cleanup ==

You are one of the best editors working on comics-related articles on Wikipedia. I'd like to inite you to join the new WikiProject I've started: [[WP:WikiProject Comics Cleanup|WikiProject Comics Cleanup]]. Similarly to how the WP:CMC collaboration works to elevate articles to Featured Article status, the primary goal of this new project is to coordinate group cleanup efforts on articles, copy editing, condensing, and providing citations where needed. The secondary goal is to remind good editors that there are other good editors who have the same goals.

This will also help prepare articles for Wikipedia 1.0 assessment, a project I am currently working on pulling together for WP:CMC. I'd really appreciate your membership, but I do understand if you find yourself to be too busy to participate. --[[User:ChrisGriswold|Chris Griswold]] (<big>[[User talk:ChrisGriswold|<span style="color:red">☎</span>]][[User contributions:ChrisGriswold|<span style="color:black">☓</span>]]</big>)<small></small> 18:57, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

== Poke Ball ==

you know it's just my luck... every time someone does something to an article that I'd like to discuss with them, they put up a wikibreak sign.... basically i question your removal of the images at poke ball. the latter part of the article is used to discuss the variety of Poke Balls out there, and offer information on specifically notable balls (e.g. Master Ball). The images are used for the purpose of eliminating redundant prose, "This ball is green on top and white on bottom," and illustrating the evolution of poke balls themselves throughout the series. Perhaps with a more detailed intro parapgraph under [[Pokeball#Varieties_of_Pok.C3.A9_Balls|"Varieties of Poké Balls"]] you would find the images more appropriate? My final point is that Wikipedia claims no policy on the [[Wikipedia:Image_use_policy#Photo_montages|use of montages]] and this article is drastically reduced in quality by the removal of these images. Your statement of "variations on a theme" sounds familiar but i couldn't find it on the policy pages about photos, perhaps you could help me out. I'll give you a few days to respond with ur POV before I change it back, but because you removed the images instead of just commenting them out, if there are a lot of edits made I may put the images back sooner. -[[User:Zappernapper|Zappernapper]] 19:55, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

:No, I'm around. The Wikibreak is over.
:That article needs major cleanup. There's no need to be describing every single Pokéball in explicit detail in that article; we don't need a field guide to identifying Pokéballs, but instead some encyclopedic summary prose explaining that there are many types with ''a few'' representative examples.
:This is also a copyright/fair-use issue. We need not to have dozens of fair-use images when one and some prose suffices. [[WP:FUC]] is clear on this, and [[WP:FUC]], unlike many other rules, isn't flexible. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Bl♟ck'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 21:18, 10 September 2006 (UTC)

would you concede that a full paragraph for "Master Ball" is necessary? It seems to be one of the most notable. That, along with the notes section from "GS Ball" seem to me to be the only information worth keeping. Are you also then proposing that instead of a table, just describing in prose the differences in poke balls brought about by each generation is adequate? I understand your point about a "field guide", but remembering that Wikipedia is not a paper encyclopedia - there's no reason why one can't discuss a topic in an in-depth manner. For example take a look at [[Seagulls]]. The gallery at the bottom does indeed represent a "field guide" to seagulls. While more specific information about each gull is located on its own page, types of Poke Balls do not merit their own articles, so a table is introduced to represent a list. Would you be satisfied with a "See also: [[List of Poke Balls]]" ? and tansporting the tables there? I never thought it neccessary because it's not quite expansive enough that i feel it slows load times down. Assuming a table of poke balls is of encyclopedic value (I am, but ''you'' may still not) the second question is of fair-use. You directed me to [[WP:FUC]] and after reading through the list of requirements I found that the images ''seem'' to meet all the requirements. I say seem, because there are a couple reuqirements that may be subjective, and another I don't completely understand. Your main disagreement with me seems to be <nowiki>#</nowiki>3. "The amount of copyrighted work used should be as little as possible... Do not use multiple images... if one will serve the purpose adequately." Again I cite that "field guides" serve an encyclopedic value for visual comparison and the images maintain their relevancy because the article discusses each of them. For example, one could write that, "typically different pokeballs feature different colors on the top and remain white on the bottom." Insert a pic of the standard poke ball, a hyper ball, and a safari ball. "However occasionally the entire ball can become differently colored." Insert a luxury ball pic. Seems adequate enough for standard balls, but then we have to go on about how poke balls in the anime and movies can vary widely (Crystal Ball, "Chansey Ball"). And write prose and ''still'' use many of the pictures. Then when a speficic ball gains some notoriety another paragraph needs to be worked in there. But what if someone writes the paragraph, just tagging it on the end? Is this alright because it's the newest data? Or should it stay grouped with other poke balls from its generation? It just seems like the tables are the best way to maintain the data and present it in an easy to read format. In regard to [[WP:FUC]] number 5 seems met, and 8 seems to be another point of disagreement we may still have. Also, number 6 is the one I don't quite get, perhaps (if unmet) you could further explain it. Finally, asking the test question, "Can this image be replaced by a different one, while still having the same effect?" I find myself saying no, when talking about how the giant stone poke balls were used to capture the giant claydol, if i wanted to illustrate just how big these balls were (giant to someone could be 7 ft high), there is no other adequate image to use. BTW, I'm fairly certain the Johto Balls (like this one [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:HeavyBall.jpg]) were created free content, but they may have been cut out of the TCG cards (i don't know enough about the TCG to make this assertion). Additionally, the screenshots are technically taken from different episodes and movies so I believe that having one image from each is not considered "too many" - please direct me to a discussion if i'm wrong. Thanx 4 taking the time 2 read all this, and happy editing -[[User:Zappernapper|Zappernapper]] 05:30, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

:We just don't need a list of every single Pokéball. It's overly specific info of interest only to hardcore fans. We should certainly describe them in general terms, but all of these are variations of a single design so we only need one design. The Master Ball doesn't need a full paragraph (unless it's way more important in the manga or something); it's just another Pokéball in the games only you only get one per game and it always works.
:The giant stone Pokéballs are exactly what we ''shouldn't'' be describing in detail. They appear in exactly one episode of the anime and never appear again. They're nothing but trivia.
:As for free content, a dozen images of Pokéballs, from any source, is not going to be acceptable, no. It's not really possible to make a free alternative, either. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Bl♟ck'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 05:38, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

so you don't feel the mentioning of the stone poke balls in the context of variance or orgins of poke balls is signficant? in fact the idea that ancient pokemon were of gigantic size is expressed in ''two'' episodes. in an article about the poke ball i don't get how its orgins (however little mentioned they are) ''aren't'' important. i concede though the mentioning of the "chansey ball" is prolly the most trivial entry in "Other Poke Balls." I realize you are coming from the perspective that you'd like to keep cruft out as much as possible and fiction comes under more attacks than other categories (you like merging, check out a majority of animal species), but for comparative purposes the mentioning of different pokeballs seems justfied. Were the number ever to get unmanageable i would agree with you, but as of yet there are relatively so few that it's very feasible to discuss each one, and explain it's differences in a table. Again, I cite that Wikipedia [[WP:NOT|is not paper]][http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Wiki_is_not_paper]. Also, while considered a poor argument, i'll reverse the [[Wikipedia:Pok%C3%A9mon_test|Pokémon defense]] to ask if [[Seagulls]] can post a dozen images birds that are prolly of no interest excpet to a few avid bird-watchers or locals, then why not the same for Poke Balls? ''Many'' pages, and even real encyclopedias, offer images of differences within a group. The only time a full list can't be propagated is when the amount is too cumbersome (I would not agree that a page on the [[American Kennel Club|AKC]] should have pictures of every recognized breed, and since each breed, say under [[Terrier_Group|terriers]] has its own page - images of all the different terriers is not appropriate either). Perhaps we have a difference of opinion as to how much encyclopedic value an image can add to an article. Personally I find images much more helpful than someone's personal view of them. An article on [[Van Gogh]] would lose much encyclopedic value if his paintings were removed - I don't care ''how'' well they are described in prose. To me, "information important only to hardcore fans" includes detailing every time Beedrill made an appearance in the anime, likewise how many people really care how many eggs the [[Dolphin Gull]] lays? They aren't apparently notable for being either endangered or having an unusual number of eggs. I understand the guidlines proposed in [[WP:FICT]] are strict, but as a notable aspect of the game variations in poke balls are important to discuss in detail - along with the history and symbolic significance gleaned from the anime and movies. (also the [[Poké Ball#Most_common_Pok.C3.A9_Balls|Master Ball]] entry discusses it's significance outside of the world scope, along with its appearance in the anime) -[[User:Zappernapper|Zappernapper]] 06:38, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

:You know, it'd be nice to know the Pokéball's origins. Making up an origin based on conjecture from two episodes isn't going to cut it, though.
:Also, those images in the seagull and terrier articles are ''free'' images. These are not free images. The rules are much stricter for fair-use images.
:The problem with "gleaning" info from the anime and movies is that much of it is listing one-off objects or conjecturing based on things implied or mentioned in passing.
:The Master Ball section is exactly the sort of cruft that article just doesn't need. Suggestions on what Pokémon to use it on? A mention of a one-off appearance in the anime (with no reference to what episode, of course)? Discussing using a glitch to duplicate it?
:It's not important to discuss ''every variation'' of the Pokéball in detail. Instead, it's important to write an [[Wikipedia:Summary style|encyclopedic overview in summary style]], aimed at a lay audience and drawing from [[WP:RS|reliable sources]]. Right now, this is a highly detailed description of every variation of Pokéball, aimed at a fan/enthusiast audience and drawing from the anime/manga/games. That's not what Wikipedia is for. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Bl♟ck'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 18:51, 16 September 2006 (UTC)

I apologize for a late reply, i've been ill, and don't have much time even now. I can cite the master ball episode as easily as anyone who knows about serebii, but i don't think that's the main issue. the origin isn;t made up, and there ''shouldn't'' be conjecture. This is why just listing the appearance of the balls and relating the info said in the anime is what's been done. I was saying that this info is useful for people who want to know it. And again, if the mention and casual overview of each ball is included in the article, WP:FU allows the use of those images, as detailed in my first reply to you. I wasn't using seagulls as an excuse for the images but as defense against your "field guide" argument. Poke ball is meant to be a centralized discussion of ''all'' things poke ball, little detail is ''supposed'' to go in each "Notes section" especially if it's one time info (the crystal ball the girl uses in ''Secret of the Unown'') those "one-off" references are most pointedly aimed at the "Other Balls" section? that section ''does'' need cleanup, and i'm not sure if images should be included there (except maybe having a sub section of it titled Early Poke balls for critical analysis - the fact that while early pokemon were consistently huge - the anime has shown ''two'' methods for containg them). The master ball entry as cruft is an opinion - i could state that listing every weakness and strength for the fire type on [[Quilava]]'s page is "not needed" (and i have - in vain). The fact that it is often used on legendary or rare pokemon is an established fact that would not meet with any serious disagreement. the two pokemon mentioned are not recommendations, but examples of rare legendary pokemon (reread the paragraph) - their names are easy enough to remove though. The glitch (again not saying to do it, or even ''how'', barring an argument that this is FAQs-ish) caused a phenonmenon (that's a little over-the-top) in the real-world - people exploiting it specifically for that purpose, this is not disputed and accepted as fact. I was under the impression that a fictional subject's effects in the real world were worth mentioning in an article. You have constantly been referring to the list as "important only to hardcore fans/enthusiasts" except for the "Other balls" section i can't agree that someone who has just bought the game would not find this information appealing. Or even a layperson who decided to look up the article. Again - the argument of cruft is fallacious, especially since [[WP:Fancruft|there is no policy or guideline]] concerning it. Only things that fall under [[WP:NOT]] are excluded, and I'm trying to eliminate them, maybe i haven't been doing a good job. Sentences that tell the locations of all the hidden Poke Balls in RBY are definitly FAQs-ish and How-to, but those things are all aggressivly removed. You'll have to provide a better arguement than "cruft" and specifically mention a policy or guideline that states why listing what a small group of items in a video game do is not allowed in Wikipedia especially if the use is to demonstrate the evolution of those items in the game over time. -[[User:Zappernapper|Zappernapper]] 17:28, 18 September 2006 (UTC) PS, I won't be home until much later today, so i'll prolly respond tomorrow.

:There's a great difference between telling people how to best play a game and describing real-world impact.

:As for Wikilawtering about [[WP:NOT]], what Wikipedia is is an encyclopedia, and [[WP:IAR|all of the rules exist only to promote that idea]]. Right now that page is a highly specialized fanpage, not an encyclopedia article. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Bl♟ck'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 05:14, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

''"There's a great difference between telling people how to best play a game and describing real-world impact."'' - we are in complete agreement here. I actively remove prose written in this article that says things like, "You only get one Master Ball in the game, so when playing RBY you should save it for the battle with Mewtwo." Apparently you don't see anything better with:
<blockquote>
"It is the games' rarest Poké Ball. In the original games... there was only one to be found. Since ..., there have been ways to get additional Master Balls, but the player still only finds or is awarded a single ball.... Master Balls are so rare and powerful that they are normally used to capture the rarest of Pokémon, like Mewtwo or Lugia."
</blockquote>
I'm at a loss due to confusion. That ''is'' what people have done. It is not something even remotely likely to be disputed, but if you'd like i could point to the hundreds of FAQs out there telling people to do that and the logical sense that it makes as proof. If this is not what you're talking about then pls better explain y you feel I'm happy with this article "telling people how to best play a game" and i don't understand what "describing real-world impact" is.

In response to your second statement - WTF is wikilawtering? My use of citing Wiki guidlines and policies in my defense? I feel the artice (a large majority anyways) as is ''does'' serve as an encyclopedia article. You feel it doesn't. I'm not trying to flash them in your face going, "SEE! SEE! lemme do what i want!" I'm offering them up for a re-reading so you can try to understand where i'm coming from. I've been giving lengthy explanations about my thoughts on the matter and you seem to write them off with a few sentences, largely ignoring any points i've made. you don't give any examples - just your opinions. I've gone through and added the names/numbers to episode references like you mentioned were lacking (ironicaly i missed the Whiscash one still), but i don't think that's your main concern. The rewrite tag has been up there for a ''long'' time, and i haven't removed it because i agree it is still in need of work; many prose sections could be completely rewritten - a few of them have, references should be added, and the tables are still "under contsruction". ''No one'' seems to interested in writing about it on the talk page, even whoever put that tag up, i haven't bothered tracking down who it was to ask them their thoughts, maybe i will. ''Please'' give examples of highly specialized fandom, and if it's the list of pokeballs - re-read my previous arguments and ''respond'' to those. I think it may be best to move this onto the [[Talk:Poké Ball|talk]] page as anyone else editing it could take advantage of it. -[[User:Zappernapper|Zappernapper]] 15:34, 20 September 2006 (UTC)

Basically, I don't see any value in a "field guide" to Pokéballs, especially given the utter lack of a basic encyclopedic overview.

I'm going to refrain from re-adding to the article for now because I'd like to avoid an edit war over this and both of us are coming fairly close to the 3RR as is, but what exactly is your problem with Metroidvania being listed as a Genre (or, more correctly, sub-genre) for this game? Adding that Megaman ZX is comparable to Metroid and more recent 2D Castlevanias and explaining how would only serve to repeat information in the Metroidvania article. Furthermore, the term is something which has seen use in both print media and in online media for comparing games using a gameplay formula like the one seen in this game.

Adding the tag doesn't take up space and DOES provide a wealth of information about similar games. The Metroidvania article is both well-sourced and fairly detailed, so I really don't understand your objection here. [[User:Lankybugger|Lankybugger]] 15:00, 21 September 2006 (UTC)

==Consensus discussion on photo==
:: No, OR would be me making UP a genre like Metroidvania. Like I said, Metroidvania has been used fairly often to describe 2D platformers that fit into the basic concepts of Super Metroid and the more recent 2D Castlevanias, mainly consisting of a one main contigious map and powerups which allow the player to eventually progress farther and farther through territory which they've not yet covered.

==Discussion on Project page==
:: Please read the [[Metroidvania]] article before you continue to discount the edit as OR. It's been thoroughly fought over already and is quite well sourced, something I'm pointing out for the second time. I'm not the one who pointed this game out as fitting into that category, and again... after the links I posted in the edit history I don't see how this game doesn't fit into the general [[Metroidvania]] description. Again, I'll restrain from edit warring with you for now as I'd like to reach a consensus or at least a mid-way agreement on this... but that seems hard when you don't appear to be investigating any of the information I've presented.

== [[Wikipedia:Templates for discussion|Nomination for deletion]] of [[Template:Pokémon character]] ==
There's a simple process I use to identify OR. I ask, "Who said that (such and such fact) is true?" If the answer is "The Wikipedia editor who added it," then it's OR. If it's someone else, then that someone else should be cited. In this case, the person applying the term seems to be you. If you can cite someone describing the game as a "Metroidvania", then add it to the article and cite it. Until then, please don't. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Bl♟ck'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 06:51, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

== [[Wikipedia:Templates for discussion|Nomination for deletion]] of [[Template:KSimagefrombeach]] ==
As for the "unnecessary duplication," I ''strongly'' disagree. If the game is often compared to similar games in reviews, the [[Mega Man ZX]] article is ''definitely'' the place to mention this. We should be concentrating more on what has been said about this game rather than on direct observation of the game itself. Look at [[Shadow of the Colossus]], a recent game FA; the article is written almost entirely without reference to the game itself. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Bl♟ck'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 06:56, 22 September 2006 (UTC)

What do you mean by representative?
Because the MP7 image is almost 3 years old and her appearance has changed since then.
:Because it isn't representative of her appearance in the bulk of the games she's appeared in. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Bl♟ck'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 01:38, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
I still dont understand what your saying here, are you saying because shes looked liek that in more games thats how she should be represented? That doesnt make sense.
:That's exactly what I'm saying. We shouldn't use her specialized outfit for one single recent game, but instead the most-common, most-recognizable appearance. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Bl♟ck'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 01:43, 23 September 2006 (UTC)

No your thinking of Peachs art. I jsut dont like her current art because even in game (mario hoops) her face is different then any past art, and not to mention her skin has more color. I know she may be in her sports outfit but before long her Strikers art will come out and who knows how shell have changed then.
:These are extremely minor differences. - [[User:A Man In Black|A Man In <font color="black">'''Bl♟ck'''</font>]] <small>([[User talk:A_Man_In_Black|conspire]] | [[Special:Contributions/A Man In Black|past ops]])</small> 01:51, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
I wouldnt say extremly minor, if the only thing you dont like about the Hoops art is the fact shes in her sports clothes then I think you should let it slide cause I'd rather show current character design then past. But I guess I'll just leave it up to you cause I dont wanna keep editing it to do that over and over again.

Dude, I want to make a complete database style thing for the TCG, like of all the sets and promos. Tell me why you dont want to do that?? I mean why do you have a problem for that anyway?? I just find it unbelieveable that you would be so against having all the sets going back to the base set and promos too. I mean theres articles on here about gym class and bananas. Why can't there be pages on here about them. And I don't want it just to be the new sets as already on there. The new sets suck. I mean why is this just such a problem to have them on wikipedia?? It seriously blows my mind you wont allow them on here...

You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
