Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (NES) has been nominated for a good article reassessment. Articles are typically reviewed for one week. Please leave your comments and help us to return the article to good article quality. If concerns are not addressed during the review period, the good article status will be removed from the article. Reviewers' concerns are here. Since I saw you contributed to the article around its original GA listing, I figured I let you know in case you have something to contribute. Thanks, MuZemike 21:05, 20 February 2009 (UTC)

Please read carefully the new criteria for video game articles. Popotan meets the mid critera as it has "[a]chieved wide commercial success, critically acclaimed or had wide sub-culture effect outside of their country of origin". じん ない 22:18, 26 March 2009 (UTC)

Thank you for translating some of the terms on the above article. I cannot read Finnish, so I need the help! I am happy to correct the grammar in sentences when they are completed, so I have started doing that.

Kiitos kääntämällä joitain ehtoja edellä artikla. En voi lukea suomeksi, joten tarvitsen apua! Olen iloinen korjata kieliopin lauseita, kun ne valmistuvat, joten olen alkanut tehdä niin.

Is that a guideline or your personal opinion? Most all of the Dance Dance Revolution articles cover more than one game, which is why they tend to have more than one year. The games are different enough to be called different games but not enough to merit their own articles. If the Video game project says first year for individual games I'll make sure to exclude ports and re-releases, but different releases should have their release year I think. æron phone home 18:29, 6 September 2009 (UTC)

[3] To which guideline are you referring?-- Crossmr ( talk) 23:54, 16 October 2009 (UTC)
iirc the general rule is to have links to explanatory articles so the reader isn't possibly confused, it's no different to links in the article itself so how is it otherwise Elm-39 - T/ C/ N 17:06, 19 October 2009 (UTC)
G'day there,
I just fed the fair use images in SWAT 3 you tagged the other day ( File:SWAT3 loadoutscreen.jpg, File:Swat 3 0004.jpg and File:Swat 3 0005.jpg) through Irfanview, and reduced them to 500x375 (and optimised them a little too). Are they any better now? I still have the originals, I can always shrink them some more.

I noticed that someone else removed the stub off my American Dream (video game) article. Would you please re-assess the article and give it a start-class rating? GVnayR ( talk) 15:46, 19 November 2009 (UTC)
I've noticed you recently assessed my World Grand Prix article but left it at stub-class even though there was no stub on the article. Why didn't you upgrade it to start-class? GVnayR ( talk) 15:50, 19 November 2009 (UTC)

Dude, if you think the page needed the European version of the boxart more than the American version, by all means, change it back to the other image, but don't overwrite the image file I uploaded with a different one. That's just a dick move. :(
I maintain that the main picture should be of the version the page was named after, but I included the European box art in the page as a picture. Is that an acceptable compromise? Master Deusoma ( talk) 21:20, 23 May 2010 (UTC)
I noticed that you have revised either Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri or Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire.
I intend to revise those articles following the Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Article guidelines. There are more details on the discussion pages of those articles. I'd be interested in any comments you have. It would be best if your comments were on the discussion pages of the two articles.
Thank you.

Thanks for uploading or contributing to File:Carmageddon2Box.jpg. I notice the file page specifies that the file is being used under fair use but there is not a suitable explanation or rationale as to why each specific use in Wikipedia constitutes fair use. Please go to the file description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If you have uploaded other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on those pages too. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the " my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free media lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Sfan00 IMG ( talk) 15:58, 6 June 2010 (UTC)
The reliable source is here. And on Wookieepedia they tell that the PC version will be developed by Aspyr. 84.86.199.99 ( talk) 14:03, 16 June 2010 (UTC)

User:Bovineboy2008 keeps removing the 2010 video games category from Sonic Colors. Earlier he was doing the same thing to Kirby's Epic Yarn until someone kept reverting his edits & he apparently gave up. Since he appears to not be a vandal based on his other edits, I figured he can be reasoned with. The reason he removes the category is because he doesn't seem to understand that upcoming games can be in the 2010 video games category. Seeing as you often add upcoming games to these categories, I am hoping that you can explain to him why he is wrong on this subject. SNS ( talk) 02:22, 9 July 2010 (UTC)
Could you explain that recent edit? I thought regional releases would go in the same template as mentioned in the documentation. What confuses me even more is that you seem to have split the templates, but not for each regional release. Is there a specific pattern we should follow? Again, it just confused me, don't take this as an offense. Prime Blue ( talk) 19:29, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for the Sonic Colors edit, I was trying to find a way to fix the whole blue ray thing, never even thought of cropping. I owe you one. =D SSB Fan ( talk) 03:19, 4 September 2010 (UTC)
Hey, I know you're busy, but if you could, would you do a quick review of #2 and #3 at Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Assessment/Requests? I'm trying to get my current projects all to B-Class. Thanks! -- Teancum ( talk) 15:04, 29 September 2010 (UTC)
Hello. It looks like you added {{ category redirect}} to Category:XBLA Compilations in an attempt to rename the category to Category:Xbox 360 Live Arcade compilations. As you can see, the latter category no longer exists. Since this was an out-of-process renaming, I have replaced your redirect with a {{ Cfr}} template, and invite you to explain the reasons for the proposed renaming on this discussion page. Thank you. -- R'n'B ( call me Russ) 10:33, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

Hey. About that thing on the todo template: looking here and here, I don't see any evidence that the article is featured. The FAC isn't even archived yet. What is that page that you and User:GamerPro64 are going by? I don't understand why that would be updated before anything else. Sorry about the whole disturbance; I thought GamerPro had just made a slight mistake. JimmyBlackwing ( talk) 10:29, 29 October 2010 (UTC)
Hi. I notice you just moved the article, Ani*Kuri15 to Ani-Kuri 15. Is this a new official localization? If so I think we should provide sources for this. The asterisk character is clearly part of the original Japanese title (アニ*クリ15) and in fact the animenewsnetwork and crunchyroll sources you cited in the edit summary for the move claim that "[t]he title of the collection, Ani*Kuri15, is abbreviated from the words 'anime' and 'creators'" (emphasis added). The twitchfilm.com source you provided refers to shorts associated with a program called "Ani Kuri" that I believe may be the show, アニクリ instead of アニ*クリ15 (Ani*Kuri15). Because none of the sources you cited in the edit summary for the move refer to the program by the title "Ani-Kuri 15," I think it's wisest to retain the title found in the majority of the sources (i.e. "Ani*Kuri15") for the time being at least. I have restored the article to its original title. If you still think a move might be in order then feel free to bring it up in talk. Cheers, - Thibbs ( talk) 01:27, 6 November 2010 (UTC)
I've "closed" your proposed merges to Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex. You failed to post a rationale at Talk:Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex, or discuss your reasons forproposing the mearge in anyway. If ytou still believe the articles should be mnerged, then you're welcome to add the merge tags again, but please open a discsuiion on the target article's talk page ( Talk:Ghost in the Shell: Stand Alone Complex). If you don't klnow how to do thios, I'd be happy to help you. Thanks. - BilCat ( talk) 12:48, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
