Turns out this week's been busier than usual. I've started a draft in my sandbox at User:Nomader/Sandbox, but I probably won't have the shells for all the games filled out until next week. Nomader ( Talk) 22:11, 24 January 2011 (UTC)
It only took me a week but I've moved the list that we've started to the series article and then I moved it to List of Pac-Man video games. We may want to expand the scope a bit to "games" so we can include the pinball games in the series, or "media" so we can include the television shows, but we should start by trying to finish up the video game list first. I've also added in all the home console and portable releases that were in Template:Pac-Man series. Nomader ( Talk) 01:27, 8 February 2011 (UTC)
Hey Guy, long time no see-- just an fyi, I'll have a week off before I start work coming up on Saturday, so I'll probably start working on sourcing the Pac-Man list again. Just a heads up. Nomader ( Talk) 00:34, 21 June 2011 (UTC)
Per this, I thought I'd ask if you wanted to collaborate on the article. As I said on that page, my experience with the game is limited; however, I'd be very interested in working on Development and Reception sections. If it's possible for you to fit it into your schedule, I bet we could do some very nice work. JimmyBlackwing ( talk) 00:01, 29 January 2011 (UTC)

Hi, can you revisit the above FLC when you get the chance? Thanks, Dabomb87 ( talk) 03:48, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
If you'd like to help out getting me a crown, I'd certainly enjoy it if you helped me bring this to featured status! :p - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 22:01, 18 February 2011 (UTC)
Since you're taking charge of Development, I thought I'd drop you this link. That issue contains a short feature about the game on page 44. The CGW Museum just started putting up post-1992 issues this year; I've already benefited greatly from them. JimmyBlackwing ( talk) 20:30, 22 February 2011 (UTC)
Some online interviews I have seen are,
Sora's creation appears to be very suitable for the first Kingdom Hearts game's article. I'm pretty some of these sites have also made other interviews by these sites, while scripts from the Ultimania guidebooks are available on many sites. Regards. Tintor2 ( talk) 00:23, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
The timeline is screwy now, his visit to the caravan was before the assignment of the Pong project. Likewise, the claim of seeing a tennis game in the 60's is a much more recent claim (never before stated, including in court testimony, which leads one to believe it's more of a strategic claim) and directly contradicts both Ted Dabney's and Al Alcorn's statements (including Al's interview in RetroGamer a few months ago) that it came from the Magnavox Odyssey. The current writing gives it way to much weight in light of that. -- Marty Goldberg ( talk) 21:03, 23 February 2011 (UTC)
Thank you for all your hard work. May you wear the crowns well, and may the gamepad crown motivate you to press on with more outstanding articles. – SMasters ( talk) 09:16, 4 March 2011 (UTC)
Am I not nominated? Well, if you wouldn't mind, that be great. I don't tend to like nominating myself for things in this regard. -- Sabre ( talk) 13:10, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Andriasang might have a lot of content to be added, since it is a reliable source that focuses on happenings in the Japanese video game industry (if you hadn't added it yet, of course). - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 20:42, 23 March 2011 (UTC)
Since I want to get the assement for Dragon Warrior done soon, like in a week or 2, I'm offering to do the 2nd reviewer for Maniac Mansion if you and the others working on the article will do the same for me. I want it done within 2 weeks because otherwise it'll be too late for what I'm brining it up for. 陣 内 Jinnai 18:14, 28 March 2011 (UTC)
Hello. I see that you have reverted my edits in Template:Space Invaders, saying "there are too many such games". Well, I need a list of all of those that have a corresponding article on Wikipedia. Can you help? Thanks in advance. Fleet Command ( talk) 08:22, 30 March 2011 (UTC)

I was wondering, could you give input on the use of Tiny Cartridge? - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 19:46, 31 March 2011 (UTC)
Not at all. I'm getting sidetracked with other projects so any help is appreciated. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs( talk) 15:55, 1 April 2011 (UTC)
I've had a number of problems with a certain editor over the articles DJMax....i sense strong bias from this editor as several times mentions POV of a fan or the creators themselves to include specific information that could very well not be important. Despite, that we've had a few problems. i hate looking for specific editors, but my attempts in the wikiproject have failed and currently.
Currently discussion is about the FC image in DJMax Portable: Black Square. I previously asked Jinnai but seems to be indecisive as he believes it more of a case by case point. I personally believe there's not much meriting an image of the contents of the special edition (as it doesn't have anything different from the original version other than secondary media). Jinnai agrees to a degree, but really isn't giving an opinion we can work on. Discussion is in Jinnai's talk page, it would be great if you could help me out with this problem just by putting in your two cents on it. Bread Ninja ( talk) 16:40, 4 April 2011 (UTC)
You might want to weigh in. Jinnai had concerns about the pop culture guidelines violating WP:TRIVIA and did a WP bold delete. I explained it was precisely WP:TRIVIA that the guidelines were crafted around and in fact it is not in violation and pointed him to the space invaders article for the type of pop culture section the guidelines promote. You were involved in the original crafting (can't remember everyone else that was and can't remember when the group effort was on the main group discussion page) so I thought you could explain things as well. If you remember anyone else involved, feel free to invite them as well. -- Marty Goldberg ( talk) 16:59, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
Just letting you know. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Takeo ( talk • contribs) 21:34, 7 April 2011 (UTC)
You have been invited for a discussion at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of DJMax track listings. Your input would be greatly appreciated. Bread Ninja ( talk) 14:02, 19 April 2011 (UTC)
I've found that a lot of good articles and probably a lot of featured articles (I haven't check them yet) are abusing the use of copyrighted images on Wikipedia (for example, I've seen several articles that use three images to visualize content in the article even though the first image demonstrates everything that the other two images are trying to do). Would you be interested in helping fix this problem? - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 18:39, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
Sorry it got archived; I do think there were some issues. If you'd like to take another crack at it I'd be happy to work on it with you till it gets to where I feel I could support it at FAC -- mostly working on the reception section and a bit of a copyedit, and I think it would be there. I might not be very quick about it but am happy to work on it if you like. Let me know. Mike Christie ( talk - contribs - library) 02:01, 26 April 2011 (UTC)
You might want to weigh in with your neutral opinion here as well, I believe you involved in the consensus to split way back when? I just don't see a strong rationale for merging again, other than unfamiliarity with the brand and mistaking it for a continuous entity. -- Marty Goldberg ( talk) 03:21, 30 April 2011 (UTC)
Good job on this article. If you could, though, could you opine over to the WT:VG/RS? It's in pretty desperate need of some more opinions. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 20:14, 10 May 2011 (UTC)
While you may be busy, I was hoping that you could give Glass Joe a copyedit and/or provide a comment on its FAC. - New Age Retro Hippie (talk) (contributions) 04:12, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
I trust you've sharpen your Japanese? xD So how about it, willing to do a request? I'll need you to read this, compare it to the TvC article, then add whatever information is missing. It shouldn't be much remaining. « ₣M₣ » 03:44, 5 June 2011 (UTC)
Note Darius Burst is move again by Despatche. This is in reference to this thread. Look over Special:Contributions/Despatche history. I really am sick of undoing his changes. Please help. Thank You. Devilmanozzy ( talk) 01:47, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
By all means, Gib, please. I sort of ran out of questions to ask. GamerPro64 15:14, 15 June 2011 (UTC)
I didn't take your comments personally, I hope you didn't mine. I just hate all the bureaucracy that is attached with discussions like this and get frustrated easily anymore with em'. Thanks for taking the time to drop a line. It's nice to hear. -- Teancum ( talk) 22:57, 20 June 2011 (UTC)
