I tried to edit some things I'd like to see in your design located at User:Guyinblack25/Sandbox myself, but I'm no good with Wikipedia table syntax. In fact, I really the new elements you introduce, but it retains some things of the old design I really don't like. The sidebar extension is also really nicely done. These things will probably take some time (I tried for 30 min and then gave up myself), so feel free to decline this request. I hope you'll be able to spend less time on it than I did because you originally wrote the page itself. Note that I'm not really trying to change your proposal, but rather seeking another version of it. Feel free to edit my own userspace if you so desire. My requests are as follows, and mostly seek to "combine the best of both worlds".
The last thing is mainly to see how that looks - I'm not a big fan of "boxes within boxes within boxes" in web design, as it removes precious space (boxed design: left margin 40px. boxless: 15px.) User:Krator ( t c) 21:36, 1 January 2008 (UTC)
Hey, I've nominated Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow for FA status here. Help with the current comments would be helpful, especially reducing the plot, as I'm utterly, utterly horrible at redoing my own work in that regard. Many thanks, Sephiroth BCR ( Converse) 02:15, 12 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi, the
recent edit you made to
Kingdom Hearts (series) has been reverted, as it appears to be unconstructive. Use the
sandbox for testing; if you believe the edit was constructive, ensure that you provide an informative
edit summary. You may also wish to read the
introduction to editing. Thanks. ·

It looks good. My only complaint is for the dates, if the ref is used for all dates, then place it with "Original release dates" to give it the appearance it is sourcing all three, otherwise it gives the appearance that some of the dates aren't sourced. Aside from that though, it appears ready for FL status. Cheers, Sephiroth BCR ( Converse) 01:51, 25 January 2008 (UTC)
Do you reckon the character biographies on IGN are reliable enough to be used as a source on Wikipedia? If so, could I use this link as a ref in the article about Sephiroth? The Prince ( talk) 14:30, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Ok, thanks a lot for the input. The Prince ( talk) 16:33, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Hi, some time ago you had posted a message to my talk page about this template, and I responded there. I haven't heard a reply from you since then, and I'm wondering if it is ok to go ahead with my idea. In a nutshell, I'm requesting to "usurp" this template name for national baseball teams, since "bb" is the two-letter sport code used by the IOC for baseball, and therefore this template would be similar to a large number of other sporting national team templates already in use ({{ fb}}, {{ bk}}, {{ vb}}, {{ hb}}, {{ cr}}, {{ ru}}, {{ ih}}, ...) I think the "big bold" formatting template is still useful, so I would propose renaming it to something like Template:bgb or Template:bbd. What do you think? — Andrwsc ( talk · contribs) 17:39, 1 February 2008 (UTC)
I was trying to this artis article after Music of Kingdom Hearts. I left the article for a week, came back, and it was at AfD. I mentioned that we could use your help. Would you please take a look and cast your vote? Thanks. Taric25 ( talk) 18:14, 4 February 2008 (UTC)
Sorry to bother you, but could you please help me out here? The Prince ( talk) 22:03, 5 February 2008 (UTC)

I'll try looking for development again... do you have any clue where I could find sources for the japanese reception? David Fuchs ( talk) 20:40, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
I've converted it to a small prose, with room for expansion. If people revert it back (which I can imagine a few people could), I might just need to ask for admin intervention to finally solve the problem. RobJ1981 ( talk) 23:40, 6 February 2008 (UTC)
just to clarify: the typo comment was regarding the anon's pointedly addressing me as an editor (note italics) further up (i mistyped/spelled 'editor' as 'editer' in one of my edit summaries). Bridies ( talk) 19:04, 7 February 2008 (UTC)
Is up at Featured Article candidacy. If you have a chance, scan it and see if it needs anything else to pass FA, cause I'm sure the microscopes will come out soon :) Judgesurreal777 ( talk) 21:21, 13 February 2008 (UTC)

I got this weird impulse to improve this terrible article, and I had a question for you. How do you think the story and character sections are formatted? I am trying to decide how to shrink them and make them Featured-like quality, but am unsure what to do. Your thought are highly valued and appreciated :) Judgesurreal777 ( talk) 21:57, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
I've nominated Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow, Castlevania: Dawn of Sorrow, List of characters in Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow and Dawn of Sorrow, Soma Cruz, and Alucard (Castlevania) for a featured topic here. Fruits of long labor, no? Comments would be greatly appreciated. Thanks, Sephiroth BCR ( Converse) 01:45, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
I'm trying to add a vgreviews box to Big_Brain_Academy:_Wii_Degree. I have the first five entries in the code, but only the first is showing on the page. I must have missed some syntax. I based it on the same kind of box at Wii_sports#Reception which I think was your work based on the history. Can you check, and correct, my work? Thanks. -- Daddy.twins ( talk) 14:50, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Hi. A user removed some content from the reception section of this article. I'm not sure if the content should have been removed or not, and since you know more about the article than I, could you please leave a comment at the talk page? The Prince ( talk) 20:53, 23 February 2008 (UTC)
Thank you so much for your help improving the Mana (series) article. If that passes and Metroid Prime does too, I will have three FA nominations to my name (first was J. R. R. Tolkien from 2006. :) Congrats on Wii Sports too! I just wanted to let you know that I'm gearing up to try to get Final Fantasy XI to Featured Status to help revive, as you have done, the Final Fantasy Wikiproject, and maybe get my fourth one :) By the way, your GA's on your accomplishments page could probably make FA one of these days, like World of and Music of Kingdom Hearts and even Org 13 as they are really good! Judgesurreal777 ( talk) 05:53, 24 February 2008 (UTC)
Thanks =) My next thought of an FT is a "Castlevania characters" FT consisting of:
A bit of a tall order, but I think it can be done. My thoughts on how List of Castlevania characters can be fixed are here. Cheers, Sephiroth BCR ( Converse) 19:22, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
I don't know if he's right or wrong on this one, but User:FightingStreet claims that images can't be placed left under sub-headings whatsoever. As far as the guideline goes ( WP:MOS#Images) it looks like it's right, but I don't know if I believe it. What do you think? The Prince ( talk) 17:30, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
Could you take a look at the organization of this article? I think it is a huge mess, and I'm not sure how to re arrange it. I always arrange an article first and then start filling it in :) Judgesurreal777 ( talk) 18:36, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
I'll do what I can. I'm a little busy with school at the moment since I just missed 5 days. Axem Titanium ( talk) 23:48, 13 March 2008 (UTC)

Hi, thank you for commenting on Wikipedia:Featured list candidates/List of official Halo series media and improving the list by separating the tables (which must have taken some time). I believe the other issue you raised (citations) has been resolved and was wondering if you would switch to support. If you don't think it is adequately sourced or you have more reason to oppose please bring it up at the FLC so the list can be improved further. Thanks for your time.

How would you like to work with me to develop my Kingdom Hearts 3: The Keyblade Wars page?-- Kingrock ( talk) 19:14, 20 March 2008 (UTC)
I see you've been working on Halo (series), and it's looking good. I was wondering if you had any opinion on merging the ARG info directly into the series article. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ( talk) 21:30, 20 March 2008 (UTC)

Thanks for checking in on the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Synthesis on video games. You've been very helpful and courteous. I've put together a strawman proposal, based on some of the things you said. Let me know what you think. Policywonker ( talk) 23:58, 23 March 2008 (UTC)
