I have some rules on my talk page as listed below:


  1. Don't go replacing content with a negative message like: I HATE YOU!
  2. If you're sending a friend request you must also put the reason of why we should be friends because you should only really talk to me about wiki-related matters.
  3. All new messages must go at the bottom of the page, you can do this by pressing the + icon next to the edit icon.
  4. Don't blank my talk page.
  5. Don't Spam. (That's obvious)
  6. Unless you know me in person (which is unlikely) don't wish me a Happy Birthday or Merry Christmas (but feel free to do so on the forums).
  7. Don't make conclusive spelling errors on my talk page.
  8. Don't put false block or warning templates on my talk page.
  9. Only talk to me about wiki-related stuff or other cool stuff if you talk to me about junk or weird stuff I'm not a fan of or otherwise have no opinion on it, I won't respond.
  10. Please paragraph you sentences I don't like them right next to my messages and it gets really boring having to do it myself.
  11. Once THIS talkpage reaches 100 sections, don't edit it I'll archive it others may vary though.

Everything else is completely acceptable so message me anything you want.

Also one more thing, I will normally answer questions here but if it is urgent I will answer them on your talk page.

Re: Subpage

Thanks. Yeah, it would be nice to have a complete North American list too. I still need the time to move that subpage to the mainspace.

Welcoming Users

I've noticed you've been giving the {{welcome}} treatment to users who haven't been on the wiki for a while. To name a few, Mcmadness (talk) (last edit was Nov. 2015), Zoraik (talk) (only made two edits in June 2016), and E (talk) (last edit was in February of 2016). It's great that you're trying to be friendly, but it'd probably be best if you welcomed them within a month of them joining (like in the case of Mcmadness, who's last edit was almost a full year ago). Nothing wrong with being friendly, but you should probably refrain yourself from making TOO many new talk pages. If you want to welcome them, best wait for them to edit again, see if they're actually still around. Alex95sig1.pngAlex95sig2.png 18:26, 26 October 2016 (EDT)

I want to echo what Alex said, that is basically the same as welcoming users who haven't made any edits, it leaves us with a bunch of useless talkpages for inactive users. --TucayoSig.png The 'Shroom 18:37, 26 October 2016 (EDT)

Well, I'm not back back yet, but it's a pleasure to make your acquaintance. Mario4Ever (talk) 21:26, 26 October 2016 (EDT)

RE: Compress/Transparency

Video - First, let's talk about format. Think of JPEGs using a bitrate, something that a video or audio codec uses to measure how much quality the encoding has. I'm sure you have seen very good quality and very poor quality YouTube videos. You might even notice the image was divided into squares (containing a few pixels). Higher bitrates yield great visuals, being bigger in file size. The bitrate tells how much estimating is allowed during encoding; setting 1% using highest amounts of estimation while 100 being the lowest amounts of estimation (100% doesn't mean no estimations occur). That's what each square contains. This sort of compression is lossy and doesn't support transparency. This is acceptable for complex visuals, such as photographs (Charles Martinet) or maybe even art, because the artifacting caused by the JPEG format will be barely noticable. PNGs use a different kind of compression that looks at how redundant the pixels of the given bitmap are at tells the decompression algoritm to repeat this pixel x number of times. Instead of say #FFFFFF #FFFFFF #FFFFFF #FFFFFF #FFFFFF #FFFFFF could be compressed to #FFFFFFx6 (this is a simple way of understanding lossless compression and doesn't reflect the exact details how PNGs work). Also, PNGs by definition are already compressed. When I say I used PNG Monstrous (a compressing tool to make them internet-ready), the program automatically looked at the best possible compressed data arrangement for an image. Keep in mind that this doesn't fix how an image appears, which is often why I say to recapture an image tagged with {{image-quality}}, especially if I detect a JPEG converted to PNG or YouTube-captured screenshots. PNGs are great for images with solid colors; such as NES games (captured as the game is running in an emulator) or solid color art where the JPEG format would make artifacts look apparent. To get transparency, GIMP is a popular free choice while Photoshop is a very common but not free tool. I have had success with FastStone Image Viewer. Just use the delete key when you are done selecting pixels (any program I mentioned). Sorry if this was overly long. I just wanted to give you knowledge how to best use each format. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 20:16, 27 October 2016 (EDT)

It doesn't go anywhere. Coincedences and tenuous connections simply aren't worth noting.

RE: DidYouKnow

You don't need permission, Users can update the template; i just do it since no one else does. Alien Bunny Sprite.pngL151Onnanoko

Emulation

I really wish you would try emulation to get your screenshots because they are loads better than using a YouTube video. I keep replacing your uploads. --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) (Stats - Contribs) 04:52, 31 October 2016 (EDT)
