| Hey can I be an chatroom admin or whatever they're called? I've been a loyal user here since the dark age of Pikipedia, have well over 500 edits, and have much more experience than I did before. If that's not enough, I'll continue my work here (which is to correct edits made by n00bs and defend my fellow gamers) albeit with spotty activity.--[[User:Pikdude|Pikdude]] 21:49, 20 September 2010 (EDT)

| == Main Page ==
| |
|
| |
| Hey! You seem to be the only bureaucrat and I cannot find a suggestions page so I'll say it here. I was wondering, if you look at the [[Main Page]], it is good. But I created a new main page which I think would work better as the main page at [[User:Pikminguy1/Test]]. I think this new main page is a good idea, it contains more information and does not expand the length of the page from what it used to be. It contains all of the knowledge from the former main page (I removed the <nowiki><choose></nowiki> tags however, they were a good idea but they didn't work well...in my opinion, if you want a main page with the choose tags, see [[User:Pikminguy1/Test2]]). Anyways, the key point of my suggested main page is that it contains a new box, "Recent news!". I was originally gonna suggest you add a box without an example but I decided that it is more explanatory to show people that changes that I am talking about, so, [[User:Pikminguy1/Test|this]] and [[User:Pikminguy1/Test2|this]] - do you like either of them? Would you consider making them the current design of the main page? Hope this isn't too long, yours truly, [[User:Pikminguy1|Pikminguy1]] [[User talk:Pikminguy1|(My Talk Page)]].
| |
|
| |
| :Hmm, yeah, the option stuff is more a remnant from when we had 3+ things to choose from, so the left column would be a lot longer; and the featured image wasn't in the right column, so it was shorter. I've removed it. About a news box, I do understand that most other wikis have them, and we used to, but we just never had any news for long periods of time - now just seems to be quite a busy time, what with the move. The site notice can cope with everything that does happen sufficiently. Of course, it's not up to me to decide, and if you still think we should have one, [[Forum:Watercooler|start a topic]]. <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span>

| Since this seems to be a pressing issue now, I threw together an example of what I was talking about with the text over the flower. [http://img259.imageshack.us/img259/5011/pikipedia2.png] My text abilities are really limited in Gimp, so I only had a few fonts and couldn't do the outline thing you had, but that's the basic idea. I liked your idea of using white text with an outline the same color as the flower. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} 14:23, 10 October 2010 (EDT)

| == Wikia is pissed ==
| |
|
| |
| GP, take a look at your talk page on the old wiki: http://pikmin.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Greenpickle
| |
| Essentially, they've written the following:
| |
|
| |
| :''Hello,''
| |
|
| |
| :''We have noticed the sitenotice and anonnotice are directing people away from using this wiki and make it appear as if this wiki will be closing. We need the community to be aware that they are welcome to stay, and that the wiki will remain open. Community members are welcome to edit here, there or on both. Please change your message to reflect this. Thank you, Sarah@Wikia (Help Forum) (blog) 20:38, October 11, 2010 (UTC)''
| |
|
| |
| ::''Hi, I'm not sure if you are going to be back to do this, so I'll make the change. Thanks -- Sannse@Wikia (help forum | blog) 23:58, October 11, 2010 (UTC)''
| |
|
| |
| They don't want people to leave, but they don't want to change the themes neither! Ah! Do you plan on doing something about the removal of the warning? Do you know already if the wikis at Wikia can be deleted? '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 15:02, 12 October 2010 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| :I've seen it. I'll come up with some wording that satisfies them. No, I don't think they can be deleted. <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span>

| |
| Did you here what happened on wikia? Major CSS problem.
| |
|
| |
| ''"Monaco is currently experiencing some issues in which CSS is being stripped, which causes the pages to look broken. We're working on resolving this issue ASAP and Monaco will not remain looking like this - don't worry."''

| Heh heh. {{User:Volatile Dweevil/Vol2}}
| |

| :Heh, even more CSS errors on wikia.

| :''"There are some issues at the moment with CSS caching, the tech guys are working on it and it should be fixed soon... sorry about this all."''{{User:Volatile Dweevil/Vol2}}
| |
|
| |
| ::Fun. Well, apparently by 'Please change your message to reflect this.', they meant 'remove all mention of a competing wiki altogether', so I didn't get to re-word it. Not surprising, I guess...

| == Consistency ==
| |
|
| |
| Alright Green,I have a proposal. I say we model all of the enemie "How to Kill" Sections like this:
| |
|
| |
| <pre>==How to Kill==
| |
| This section is entitled, "How to Kill", not Killing Strategies or Strategy.
| |
|
| |
| ===Pikmin===
| |
| This section will be on every page. Even if you cant kill the enemy, like Flint Beetles, a way to damage or attack the ememy must be listed.
| |
|
| |
| ===Captains===
| |
| This section will show up even if you can't kill and enemy with the Captains.</pre>
| |
|
| |
| Either way, if we decide not to use this model, the Enemy pages nned to be more consistent.

| |
|
| |
| :We had a thread about this, but it was never resolved. I think "Strategy" is the best option, as that's exactly what it is. As Green pointed out, you're not always killing enemies, such as with Flint Beetles which you even mentioned. {{user:Jimbo Jambo/sig}} 10:12, 15 October 2010 (EDT)

|
| |
| ::Yeah, I just started using 'strategy' when we never reached a decision.

| ==Edit port==
| |
| Oops, my bad. I'm pretty sure I wanted to port either [http://pikmin.wikia.com/index.php?title=Hole_of_Heroes&diff=prev&oldid=59023 this] or [http://pikmin.wikia.com/index.php?title=Hole_of_Heroes&diff=next&oldid=59023 this]. And seeing as I'm not sure if the info on those edits is appropriate or not, I'd rather leave my port uncorrected.
| |
| Also, about [http://www.pikminwiki.com/index.php?title=Easter_eggs_and_glitches&curid=371&diff=56136&oldid=56092 this], the only reason I wrote that otherwise obvious sentence was because... well, ~70% of the additions to that list are completely unorganized. Most of them add new sections, and don't even use <nowiki>===X===</nowiki>. It's like those warnings in rat poison. Nobody would ever think about eating it, but thanks to some people, almost every can of poison and such needs to have an obvious 'don't eat' warning.

| == ''Pikmin'' map markers ==
| |
|
| |
| I've added them like I said I would... but the wiki hasn't updated the image yet. Also, I'm pretty sure I accidentally chose the wrong textures, so the bubbles are bigger than they should be. This is, however, a good thing, so the markers on the map will be easier to identify. Also, couldn't you obtain the world map without the sunshine effect on the top-left corner? In ''Pikmin'', the sunshine was a different texture. Is it merged with the map background itself in ''Pikmin 2''? '''{''[[User:Espyo|Espyo]]''<sup>[[User talk:Espyo|T]]</sup>}''' 17:08, 21 October 2010 (EDT)
| |
|
| |
| :Wait, why isn't this on template talk:areas? No, the markers you added look nice. Yeah, the light was separate. I thought it looked weird without it, though, and was going for something as close to what you see in-game as I could manage. Do you think it would be better to remove it? <span style="font-family:times;">'''''[[User:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#080;">G</span>]][[User talk:Greenpickle|<span style="color:#050;">P</span>]]'''''</span>
