User talk:Dejiko

Hi, welcome to /v/'s Recommended Games Wiki! Thanks for your edit to the User talk:Kotep page.

Please leave a message on my talk page if I can help with anything! -- Kotep (Talk) 03:54, 28 August 2009

Apologies
Just wanted to say that the stupid edit argument is over and done with. Never to be brought up again. All I wanted was to leave the edits as they were. I'd rather not get into great detail, but it's over. Sorry about all the retardation that ensued. Haipayazoo 06:44, January 28, 2011 (UTC)

Game Gear images
dude, hate to ruin this for you, but JPEGs are NOT good images to use in general for this wiki. if you want to downsize the pixel ratio of the image, it doesn't show properly, and appears as a broken link! try and upload PNGs instead. sorry if you went through a lot of trouble - MFGreth1 03:23, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

Ouch... I just uploaded every single game gear one. Oh well, that is some advice I will keep in mind from now on. Thanks for the heads up.--Dejiko 03:27, September 15, 2009 (UTC)

NGP page
it was no problem man, it was easy, you already did all the work. all i had to do was make the table and google search the images. cheers. - MFGreth1 04:35, November 11, 2009 (UTC)

Thanks. Oh and thanks for that guide you've posted that explains 150px. I doubt I'd figure that out otherwise. --Dejiko 02:41, November 12, 2009 (UTC)

The description
It certainly may be appealing as a game, but it's better when it's described by someone that played it from start to finish and write down a succint description. But that looked like a Release Note (one that a marketer wrote)--Sataaa 09:46, November 15, 2009 (UTC)

Oh, I see. Sorry about that. It seems kind of long, so we probably won't get that kind of description too soon. --Dejiko 19:41, November 15, 2009 (UTC)

You made that whole page, you're the true wikiplaya. whosawesome_youreawesome_winkingdog.jpg Kotep 20:43, December 18, 2009 (UTC) Thanks. It wasn't easy, and it took alot of work off and on from fucking springtime (I was often interrupted by thing such as University work). I wouldn't have gotten it to look as well as it did without your help and that of others who know wikia formatting. --Dejiko 15:42, December 18, 2009 (UTC)

About the thanks
"Seems you've really been getting into this! It's cool to see you finally come here, and it's great to see how much you've done in so little time. Thanks again"

My pleasure, check again now, we've been working on it today with PC 2D.

Tomorrow i'll start a romhack section.

Walkthrough pages.
I created a category for Walkthroughs. I hope to make a walkthrough and/or tips n tricks page for each game; obviously this will be a greater undertaking for some games than others. The only games in the category right now are Robot Unicorn Attack and Doom; I've been working on the RUA page (since it'd be an easy start), but the DOOM page needs work. I actually hope to do Super Widget and Kirby's Super Star, both for SNES, as my first true walkthroughs though. I just thought I'd throw down a heads up in case you were interested in making any. Also, thanks for continually being a huge bro. - MFGreth1 22:09, March 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * I mean, discussion is nice, but that's the thing, that's what /v/ itself is for. That what you're suggesting looks more like, small game reviews accompanied by discussion. I was considering the idea of walkthroughs so that there might be an alternative to GAMEFAQs, the problem I've always had with GFaqs is walkthrough's are closed efforts; in a wiki setting, other people can edit walkthroughs to expand upon information, or offer even more valuable advice. If it's just trolling, someone will eventually spot it and moderate it of course. It also comes in handy when you can come to one place to find recommended games AND helpful hints and guides on how to beat aid games, instead of having to go all over the net for different sources. - MFGreth1 03:40, March 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * That's a good point. I wasn't going for game reviews though, so much as just "I like [game] because..." "I'm playing [game] and it's..." "I'm really looking forward to [game] because...". Pretty much like the roundtable of Sega-16. Quick and easy short sentence stuff, much like our wiki descriptions, although yeah, we might just end up considering /v/ for this, especially to lower traffic to the server. However, like you said for your walkthroughs, it would be something for anyone to come in and leave a quick note for, without fear of deletion (when there's no reason to be deleted, that is). It would (hopefully) be /v/-related without fear of porn/image dumps or spam of "tripfags", which would sway discussion and eat up a thread faster, causing a thread to perma-sage easier. In addition, it would last a month instead of 30 minutes to an hour or so. I'm not saying to turn the wiki into a meeting and social site (oh hell no, we don't need another one of those), but I think the minimal purpose of just mentioning games we're interested in -past, present, and future- would be interesting to say the least, and perhaps make a few others interested in a certain game (or games), and hopefully promote more vidya-related discussion on /v/ about it or others. At the very least, we could just limit it to the editors among us, and whoever pops in to post, then make a thread on /v/ anonymously each month or so and also post anonymously in reply to any discussion for a while. The only issue I see with this is finding a decent time to do so. Probably the first or last weekend of the month. There's currently a thread on /v/ very much like the idea I'm having for this, if potentially done. Again, I'm not saying it has to be done, but it would be a possible companion to walkthroughs and only done monthly anyways. Thanks for the input though. It's good to hear different opinions on this, especially if it helps work out any bugs for a potential possiblity or shoots it down out of fear of failure. Dejiko 04:48, March 3, 2010 (UTC)

>I sad now
I meant that to be a compliment. I think your know much more about old consoles than I do, in fact I'm pretty sure about it. So cheer up :3

I just checked the SNES page though, and that definately needs some help, so I'll see what I can do for it. 3yearold 10:28, March 7, 2010 (UTC)

No Problemo

PS1 Originals or whatever it's called
Sure, go ahead and mark it. There's probably something fancy you could do or just a note on each of them or something. As long as it works it's cool with me. :3 Kotep 02:44, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

No problem
Don't sweat it, just fixed a spelling mistake for WipEout 3.Aco88 03:38, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I am European, but I'm not sure what you mean. You want me to help you with telling which games are PSOne classics? (or Platinum in Europe) Aco88 03:49, March 16, 2010 (UTC)

I casually checked while doing my weekly browesing of the PlayStation Store, and noticed the following being sold:

C&C Red Alert

Future Cop LAPD

FF VII & VIII

Guilty Gear

MGS

Medieval 2 (could have been 1, or both)

I'll get back to you in more detail soon. Aco88 02:07, March 19, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Mythical Page
Don't worry at all, actually - I haven't done much myself. I will work a bit on it later.

RE: Genesis inline
Not sure if was garbage data or so from editing the 32X table. Got rid of it.

Sup bro.
Sup bro, have I seen you around on RomUlation or their IRC channel before?

Re: Thanks for the boxes on GBC
No probs. Some of them you would've had to search using Japanese on Google so I can understand why one wouldn't find them. But it's given me something to waste time on a boring Sunday night - so I'm happy. I'm doing the left-over Gameboy ones now.

I might actually PLAY some of them later...

Re: Neogeo stuff
I'm probably going to add neogeo screenshots since I just got winkawaks, plus look for other recs since it doesn't have much. I would also like to put the Saturn page in a regular grid format too, but there's no descriptions and I haven't played any. I'm gonna look into emulation but I don't know how well that goes and my actual Saturn console (with no games) is across the country atm Rapi2 21:13, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Saturn
Great start on the Saturn descriptions, thx bro

It fucking figures. The one day my internet is down all day...
Everybody and their dog comes back... Feels bad man.

A Proposal to Migrate and Merge the Wikis.
(CC: MFGreth1, Kotep)

Admins of the /v/'s Recommended Games Wiki:

As we all have seen, the new Wikia layout has being derided by many users. For the time being, a temporary solution is to advice users to switch to Monaco, the old skin. However, on November 3, the option to use Monaco will be removed.

Wikia argues it doesn't have the resources to handle multiple skins, and "[h]aving multiple skins also creates an inconsistent experience across Wikia, and we want to help people move around the site and feel comfortable contributing to every wiki".

As I personally believe those arguments are bogus and insufficient for such a drastic change in the user experience, I come to you, with the best intentions, to propose you the following:

I.- A migration of this wiki's database to another hosting site, in order to keep the files and edits intact. II.- A merger of both our wikis into a single, unified 4chan Recommendations wiki, maintaining equal Sysop status for both projects' previous Admins.

If you like this idea, please reply [mailto:erisie@mail.com to my e-mail] before November 3 so we can arrange the details. -- Er1si3 05:54, October 25, 2010 (UTC), Sysop of The Recommendations Wiki

Plans on wiki merging
Hmmm... After e-mailing the recommendations wikia person I've thought about it abit more, and I have to say, I'm not sure if we should merge or not. However, one thing that recently ran across my mind is having a few "mini-pages" over there. While it wouldn't be as big as our own wiki, I'd like to possibly have us vote on various games, pick out some of our favorites and put them over there by Generations and/or Genres. This might be a bit hard unless we have some IM/IRC/etc. type deal going on, but I'd be interested in doing it over the weekend if possible. Ideally, I'd like a nice balance of well-known and not well known stuff over there though (It's a pipedream and just an example, but I'd like to have as many people know about Romancing SaGa 3 as there are people who know about Super Mario Bros. 3 after checking our pages). I don't see us putting all sorts of specialty stuff though like Romhacks, editing software, or Oblivion mods, just because I don't want it to be too large over there compared to other boards' pages and I think it will work better for the attention-deficit browsers on /v/ as well, as opposed to the beards of thunder who may check out the specific stuff we do over here.

Preferably, I'd also like to make some pages in the future that will be on both and work well on both, such as a budget gaming page (In b4 ">buying games". Yes, fucker, I do and I love it.).

That said, with relation to the budget page:

Sysops gonna sysop.
Time we get more coordinated. I have an AIM at MrMastodon32690, and an MSN at the same address plus @aol.com (dont worry it's a spam mail account). Message me whenever. - MFGreth1 18:20, November 3, 2010 (UTC)

Allowing me to edit the Xbox 360 section
Yeah so I'm locked out from editing the 360 section, but it would be totally cool if you would allow me access to that. I hope my contributions are sufficient enough to warrant me access to it.--LEGOslayer 08:08, December 12, 2010 (UTC)

There's a new page 'round these parts.
And I'd like you to contribute! - MFGreth1 01:44, December 15, 2010 (UTC)

BROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO - MFGreth1 05:48, February 6, 2011 (UTC)

Im having trouble making tables the right size to add new games. Im really not to good with anything computer related, but I have a lot of games to add once I figure out how!

I mean I don't know how to make another square to put a game in and stuff

Whack-an-image
Well, since you're the most active admin recently, I've got a question. I've been going through a lot of pages tweaking pixel ratios but I'm not sure if it's the proper way to go about things. These pages usually have a bunch of white spaces for me even when the image is in the source code displaying the proper px ratio. I just go ±1, 2 or 3 pixels until it displays properly or re-upload a higher resolution image.

Is it a resolution discrepancy? Or could this be a Wikia formatting error? I use MonoBook. I haven't checked if images all display properly with the new look. - Kierke 21:58, March 5, 2011 (UTC)

''Custom filters fuck shit up. - Bill Cosby''

Yeah I'm an idiot, AdBlock is second nature for me and disabling fixed everything. Sorry to bother bro. - Kierke 03:29, March 6, 2011 (UTC)

Developer column
Hi. Sorry to clutter up your Talk page, but since you're an admin I figured you were the one to ask: what do you think about adding a Developer column to every games list? I think that knowing a game's developer says a lot about the game's quality and style, and is comparable to noting a movie's director. Thanks for your time. Leynos 23:54, March 22, 2011 (UTC)Leynos

Thanks for the go-ahead! I'll start working on a preliminary list ASAP and link you to the page once it's up.

Hentai games
Hi Dejiko, I was thinking about another special page: hentai games. There are a shitload of hentai games (lots of them are flash) out there, but you know, this is /v/'s recommended games wiki and we should put the best of them in there. I could make the page by myself (I know how wiki code works, don't panic) and there are a lot of pretty good hentai games out there (Violated Heroine, Sengoku Rance, Super Deepthroat...) and we should have a page about it. Before work on something that might will not be accepted, I wanna ask this to you. What do you think about it? My sign is not working.


 * Awesome. Gotta work on it soon.-TheDekuLink


 * I found this working on the new page. I guess you admins can just delete it.-TheDekuLink

Have you seen the page already? I think it turned out pretty well.-TheDekuLink


 * Isn't good this way? I know it's... kinda suggestive, but it still doesn't show anything. This is the way they make Super Deepthroat on /v/, to keep them sfw.-TheDekuLink

>Ihavenoideawhatyoumeanwiththatbutit'sokanyway.jpeg -TheDekuLink

RE: MSX page
I had the PC-98 in mind. Unfortunately, I'm familiar with 7 titles (5 being a part of Touhou). I was hoping that suggesting this idea would encourage people who know more about those games will contribute (I do get surprised when I find people remembering things that have been long out of print). And I'm fine with the inclusion of International computers. --AntonImaus 08:21, May 7, 2011 (UTC)

Linux
re: Linux go bye-bye

Turns out the page was moved to Linux_Games. I was weirded out because Linux was linked from my user page and was on my watchlist, and that's the article that was linked from the front page, and I made two sub-pages for that article. I updated the front page. As for the two sub-pages, Linux/Fedora and Linux/Ubuntu, those were there in case someone challenged me on "how do you know such-and-such is popular?", but they can go away since I copied the code to regenerate those pages to my user page. --Mozai 15:04, May 14, 2011 (UTC)

new front page (May 2011)
So... no response from Kotep, you're the only Admin I know that responds. Are you cool if I replace the front page with what I've got at User:Mozai/FrontPage ? --Mozai 17:10, May 26, 2011 (UTC)

Newb guidance
How can I help /v/ the most? You seem to give a fuck, so I wanted to ask you first. DJDK 18:16, May 28, 2011 (UTC)


 * For any mediawiki instance, there's always these reports you can check for stuff that needs clean-up or wants attention:
 * Category:Article stubs - an editor marked these pages with to invite other editors for assistance
 * Special:ShortPages - these pages might be short, or half-assed
 * Special:WantedPages - people made links, but not pages
 * Special:WantedFiles - people made Image tags but didn't upload photos
 * Special:WantedCategories - write summaries for these category pages
 * Special:WantedTemplates - people used a but didn't actually make one
 * Special:UnusedFiles - tag old and unused uploads with so an admin can save space
 * (the admins check 'what links here' before deleting pictures, right?)
 * The SpecialPages meta-page is one of the awesome things about using mediawiki software.
