RPGFan

Hi Axem Titanium, a few of us at the WP:VG Reliable Source board are discussing a matter that you had some involvement in back in 2010. This concerns the designation of the website RPGFan as a reliable source. Do you remember where it was determined to be an RS (I know it was a while ago...)? Anyway any light you can shed on the matter would be most welcome. The thread is here. Thanks -Thibbs (talk) 04:55, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars FAC...

Hi Axem! You might remember as the reviewer of your Cave Story article. I'd really appreciate a comment at Broken Sword's fifth FAC. I'm pretty sure it's ready this time. :) Best, --Khanassassin ☪ 20:14, 21 November 2012 (UTC)

Sure thing! I'll try to review it asap. Axem Titanium (talk) 15:28, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

Thanks! :) --Khanassassin ☪ 15:30, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

Thanks a lot for taking your time to review my article. I'm pretty sure I'm done with all your issues now, except the character issue in the plot section, which I'm afraid I can't take care of. I'm horrible with plot sections. I'll do a source check myself, though I think the nominator can't do one himself, so I'll name it an "unofficial" one. Heh. Thanks again! Best, --Khanassassin ☪ 16:08, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

No problem, glad to do it. Always available to help improve the encyclopedia. Axem Titanium (talk) 17:02, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

OK, if I'm correct, the plot issue is the last one at the FAC: I removed all the characters that are mentioned 1-2 times, and shortened the other stuff just a little bit. I didn't remove Plantard, however, he's sort of an important plot element. So I would really appreciate you checking it out, and maybe Supporting the article? :) Best wishes, --Khanassassin ☪ 16:50, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Thanks a billion! :) --Khanassassin ☪ 19:50, 3 December 2012 (UTC)

Hope you don't mind, but I put your comments into that "Resolved comments" table thingy, because there's a lot of comments... :) Best, --Khanassassin ☪ 13:13, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

No problem. Good luck with the nom. Axem Titanium (talk) 15:45, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

Capcom Five Topic

You know Axem, Resident Evil 4 was promoted to Good Article status last month. Have you thought about placing the Capcom Five as a potential Featured Topic? GamerPro64 09:49, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

Oh nice! Yes, I would definitely be interested. :P Sorry, I was away for Thanksgiving so I didn't see your message until now. Do you think it's ready to nominate as-is? Axem Titanium (talk) 15:29, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

I certainly think so. All of the articles reached their respected status fairly recently with it being a year or two ago. Sure it may confuse people on the fact that the topic will have four of the five listed but mentioning the lack of Dead Phoenix may make everything easier. GamerPro64 17:50, 26 November 2012 (UTC)

Congrats Axem. The Capcom Five is now a Good Topic. GamerPro64 20:26, 23 December 2012 (UTC)

Adventure Time

What was your intention to replace my screenshots with one drawing from character designer -but not an official material from Cartoon Network- for an exhibition? JSH-alive/^{talk/cont/mail} 06:15, 8 January 2013 (UTC)

Per WP:NFCC#3, multiple fair use images should be replaced with a single fair use image whenever possible. If you would like to upload an official full cast image from Cartoon Network at the same file location, go ahead. I'll help with updating the fair use rationale.

Broken Sword 1 again

Hey! I know I'm getting quite annoying with this, but I FAC'd Broken Sword: The Shadow of the Templars. After what I think was an unfair non-promotion of the article last time, I ask you to please cast a vote again. Since the article remained pretty much the same as it was when you supported it at the last FAC two months ago or so, you can go ahead and support again, but if you find some new issues, go ahead and comment... please? :) Best, --Khanassassin ☪ 21:15, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Re:Designer credits in Infobox video game

Hello. My apologies for this late reply. I will heed you advice and keep the info box looking as simple as possible and only mentioned the staff as outlined in the discussion on the video game board. However, I would like to list the core staff of the games in a "Staff" section under the "Development" section of each article. I have done this for the Final Fantasy Versus XIII page. Please take a look and tell me what you think. Warm regards. --G-Zay (talk) 22:59, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

Thanks for keeping the infobox credits to the minimum for FFV13. The video you cited for FFV13 appears to redirect to a video for Prey (2006 video game). Generally, lists of video game credits are discouraged in favor of cited in-depth discussion of roles and contributions to the project. It's much more useful to the reader to hear about how Takayuki Takeya designed the "mechanic concept" than simply listing his name. It's ok (for now) to list known developers of FFV13 but when it's released, the criteria for inclusion will become much more stringent and require direct quotations from developers for their specific involvement in order to warrant a mention on the page. Thank you for your tireless contributions to WP:SE and I hope you focus your efforts toward positive areas in the future. Axem Titanium (talk) 05:43, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

Hi. I have since changed the reference URL on the Final Fantasy Versus XIII page to another video. It appears that when GameTrailers changed their site, some of their old videos got deleted. As for the staff list, I will only list them like that for the Versus XIII page as the game is unreleased. For other games, I will list their actual roles and what they contributed to the game in prose similar to how it has been done on the Final Fantasy VI page. I hope we can continue to work together improving the Square Enix game pages. --G-Zay (talk) 23:35, 25 February 2013 (UTC)

I hope so as well. I suppose it does make sense to list some dev staff for unreleased games as long as it's converted to prose after it's released. Regards, Axem Titanium (talk) 14:34, 26 February 2013 (UTC)

No problem. I personally think the info bx now looks more concise. :) --G-Zay (talk) 19:44, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

Double Dash!! and New Play Control!

Hello Axem Titanium,

Based on your New Play Control! edit, it seems you find the following line of mine to be "iffy":

Many elements from Mario Kart: Double Dash!! reappear in Mario Kart Wii. Four tracks (Peach Beach, Waluigi Stadium, Mario Circuit and DK Mountain) and the Cookie Land battle course are available on the Wii game. All Double Dash!! characters, with the exception of Paratroopa and Petey Piranha, reappear in the Wii game.

— True Tech Talk Time, New Play Control!

Let me explain why i put that in there. See, to me, the Wii is an enhanced version of the GameCube. Purchasing it allowed me to have the power of both consoles (plus many more via the Virtual Console) in one machine. But this is not just a matter of opinion. It also has to do with the similar hardware between the two, plus the support of nearly all GameCube and two Triforce games (three with CosmoCortney's AX discovery in GX). As the New Play Control! concept shows, porting from the GameCube to the Wii is a breeze. The Wikipedia page lists a dozen such ports, with hopefully more in existence or in the works.

Likewise, it's safe to say that the Mario Kart: Double Dash!! engine is re-utilized in the Wii and Arcade GP games. Why would they rewrite the engine from scratch when they can simply reuse and improve upon the one found in the Double Dash!! game? To further add to this theory, the GameCube controller can be used in the Wii game. There are also four retro tracks and one retro course, plus the character rosters between the two console games share a lot of similarities: seven characters premiered in Wii, while that game's other 18 characters consist of all but two Double Dash!! characters. (Contrary to your claim, retro tracks only appear from DS onward, although Super Circuit does have Super&amps; tracks.)

i'd like to know what you think about all of this, and whether or not this is enough evidence to support a mention of Double Dash!! in Wii.

Thanks, --True Tech Talk Time (talk) 22:01, 8 March 2013 (UTC) (please reply on my page!)

Hmmm, I can see where you're coming from, but I can't just take it on faith that the "Double Dash engine" was reused for MKWii. For starters, the central mechanic of Double Dash---swapping racers on the fly---is missing from MKWii. And even if the engine was reused, what of it? Developers reuse engines all the time to make sequels. Majora's Mask used the same engine as Ocarina of Time, but that doesn't mean MM is a remake of OoT. In fact, Twilight Princess uses a modified Wind Waker engine. Long story short, there's no evidence that the game called "Mario Kart Wii" is a remake/port of the game called "Mario Kart Double Dash". None of the other games listed on the New Play Control page had their names changed as a result of the port/remake. Axem Titanium (talk) 22:21, 8 March 2013 (UTC)

.hack (video game series)

Hi Axem Titanium, I'm beginning the copy-edit you requested to the above article at the GOCE Request page. Please feel free to contact me, or to correct or revert my edits if I'm doing something I shouldn't. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 13:12, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

Thanks a lot! Axem Titanium (talk) 22:04, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

No worries; I've significantly expanded the 'Reception' section as it covers all four games. You might like to divide these into subsecs if further expansion occurs, but I think they're of a suitable length at the moment. Also I added a {{citation needed}} tag in Plot --> Characters at the end of the paragraph, which appears to be unreferenced. You may also wish to expand the leader, which given the size of the article is a little short IMO. Anyway I'm done; feel free to contact me about any issues arising from the copy-edit. Good luck with your planned FA nom, and I recommend you seek a Peer Review before nominating it. It's an interesting article and I enjoyed working on it. Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 04:32, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Thanks again for all your help. I didn't want to sprinkle edit conflicts in while you were copy-editing so I've resisted the urge to look at what you've changed yet. I'll take a look tomorrow and look into the remaining issues you brought up here. Regards, Axem Titanium (talk) 04:49, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

No worries; thanks for avoiding edit conflicts, its appreciated. I hope my changes are OK for you - somehow critical reception sections always seem to require more attention than other sections, even when they seem fine at face value. ;-) Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 20:12, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

Yes, your work on the reception section is extremely appreciated. I made some slight changes but the vast majority have been kept. You seem to like mdashes even more than I do! :) Anyway, one question: is it ok for the last sentence of the article to be in its own paragraph (the one about fragment's Famitsu score). Axem Titanium (talk) 20:19, 3 April 2013 (UTC)

I wasn't quite sure what to do with the Famitsu score sentence; it's probably best to merge it unless you can add more critical reviews of the game. I'm glad someone else likes dashes; they're good where too many commas can confuse things. :-) Cheers, Baffle gab1978 (talk) 01:27, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, unfortunately, it's a game that was only released in Japan and Famitsu magazine's reviews are the only ones that get reported in the West with any regularity. And dashes are great. We should all use more dashes. Axem Titanium (talk) 13:28, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Farewell

I am sending this message to the users who I have closely collaborated with. I will be taking a temporary Wikibreak for at least 5-7 days to let off some steam and get myself reenergized. Some of the stress has got to me, so I think it's best if I should take a couple of days off. I also have final exams coming up as well, so I have more important things to worry about. I, however, will be here to contribute to some articles that I have worked on. Until then, farewell.

Take care and chill out. Wikipedia is a hobby, not a job, and you definitely don't want to get burned out on a hobby (which is something that you presumably enjoy). I spent a few years figuring out where and how much I wanted Wikipedia to be in my schedule as well. Axem Titanium (talk) 21:10, 30 April 2013 (UTC)

Hey Axem Titanium

I'm sending you this because you've made quite a few edits to the template namespace in the past couple of months. If I've got this wrong, or if I haven't but you're not interested in my request, don't worry; this is the only notice I'm sending out on the subject :).

So, as you know (or should know - we sent out a centralnotice and several watchlist notices) we're planning to deploy the VisualEditor on Monday, 1 July, as the default editor. For those of us who prefer markup editing, fear not; we'll still be able to use the markup editor, which isn't going anywhere.

What's important here, though, is that the VisualEditor features an interactive template inspector; you click an icon on a template and it shows you the parameters, the contents of those fields, and human-readable parameter names, along with descriptions of what each parameter does. Personally, I find this pretty awesome, and from Monday it's going to be heavily used, since, as said, the VisualEditor will become the default.

The thing that generates the human-readable names and descriptions is a small JSON data structure, loaded through an extension called TemplateData. I'm reaching out to you in the hopes that you'd be willing and able to put some time into adding TemplateData to high-profile templates. It's pretty easy to understand (heck, if I can write it, anyone can) and you can find a guide here, along with a list of prominent templates, although I suspect we can all hazard a guess as to high-profile templates that would benefit from this. Hopefully you're willing to give it a try; the more TemplateData sections get added, the better the interface can be. If you run into any problems, drop a note on the Feedback page.

Megami Tensei sub-series

Hi, regarding the template I didn't really mean to imply that they were part of a subseries, just that they share "devil" in their title. The 'other' section is kinda big so it is notable for etymological reasons that the titles have that commonality.

I mean heck, even the 2 "Devil Children" animes star entirely different casts so in spite of the shared title they're not part of the same reality either. So I figure why not just point out common names? Persona 3 and Persona 4 share little more in common outside the name than they do with the rest of the Megami Tensei series I think. Ranze (talk) 18:41, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Ah I see. Still, it's a bit weird to separate them out like that, especially if there's Devil Summoner right above it. I believe the Other section presents the games in order by release date, which is a plus and every separation dilutes that functionality. I'm not a huge fan but if you feel strongly, take it to the talk page and hash it out with all the other editors. Axem Titanium (talk) 22:19, 8 July 2013 (UTC)

Disney Channel Original Studios

Hi Axem, I noticed that you filed the AfD for Disney Channel Original Studios. Recently noticed this article, Disney Channel Original Productions, which was created by new user Special:Contributions/Super Martino Bro. Since the new article was created with a copy/paste of another article, I thought he might be resurrecting a deleted page, which led me to your AfD. Do you think they're the same article? Super Martino's user page is telling, as well. It's likely he's a sock of KuhnstylePro. Cyphoidbomb (talk) 21:00, 23 July 2013 (UTC)
