Recent edits
Hey, recently you've been editing TPPs that have already been settled, you are only allowed to edit them if they are currently being voted on.
 * Ok then, tell me why are Ashley & Red still in the same article if the majority voted that they should be in separate articles? --Metalex123 (talk) 17:51, 27 June 2014 (EDT)
 * Because of this.--Vommack (talk) 17:53, 27 June 2014 (EDT)
 * It pays to look through the whole page first before you ask questions! Make this a meaningful lesson! :) 19:08, 27 June 2014 (EDT)

Moving page based on Japanese names
Just FYI, the wiki's has an huge problem with properly sourcing names, and as you can tell from the sitenotice, it's something we're trying to fight. Before moving pages to the "official Japanese name" (as you did with several DK64 enemies over the past few days), try finding a source for the name in question. --Glowsquid (talk) 20:50, 9 April 2015 (EDT)
 * Well then sorry for moving pages to the only "official" name that was shown on the page (for example, the Ghost Book's japanese name was apparently "Cheato". I don't know if it was true or not, but it was the only "official" name shown on the "In other languages" category; same for the other pages I moved.). If I was wrong, then sorry for moving these pages. Sincerely, Metalex123 (talk) 17:31, 10 April 2015 (EDT)

Reply
Oh, thanks for that. I'm aware of the old state of Mushroom World, as I voted in the proposal and I was the one who overhauled the page once that proposal passed. I was actually hunting down all Mushroom World links that are used like that and trying to invoke how ridiculous the attempts were to tie Mushroom Kingdom to Donkey Land. It's fine to interpret Mushroom World as Mario's planet and to like the article's old state, but the concept of Mario's planet is insignificant in the eyes of the games and even other media, so that's why we don't cover it. I find the concept of Mario's planet and all interesting too, but it's almost like making articles on something like Mushroom Universe and All worlds, which were articles before. 16:32, 26 June 2015 (EDT)

Hey
Hi there, I've noticed you worked hard with the Donkey Kong 64 article, especially when I was aiming to get it featured. I just wanted to thank you for the help. I was thinking about thanking you around the time of the nomination, but it kinda slipped my mind. In any case, thanks for all the help with the article.
 * I don't really know what to say to this, so I'm just going to say this: Thanks Tails! --Metalex123 (talk) 03:15, 7 August 2015 (EDT)

Costume Mario proposal.
I have changed the options and rewritten the proposal on the Costume Mario Sprites. Please Take a look. 10:46, 16 September 2015 (EDT)

Tiny Kong Image You Changed
Three things: -- 00:21, 10 February 2016 (EST)
 * File:Tiny Kong DK64.png is smaller than File:Little_grilTinyKong.gif. I understand that GIF doesn't have all the colors (8-bit) that a PNG can hold (24-bit), but I think the mods would agree that the GIF should continue to be used.
 * 1) Tag removed images with . You can specify a reason like this:  
 * File:Little_grilTinyKong.gif is being used on Gallery:Tiny Kong. Check file usage of each file to make sure you get every page.
 * Okay, sorry for that then... --Metalex123 (talk) 17:42, 10 February 2016 (EST)
 * No worries. All is good now. Moderators will now decide the right action to take. -- 18:23, 10 February 2016 (EST)
 * Well I just brought the old picture back and put a on the version I uploaded... --Metalex123 (talk) 16:47, 11 February 2016 (EST)

Your uploads
Hello. When you upload images please make sure to add the correct licensing for the image (found in the dropdown menu) as well as the correct game category (such as ).-- 15:15, 5 June 2016 (EDT)
 * Sorry, I forgot to add them... Next time I'll try not to forget. Thanks! --Metalex123 (talk) 15:31, 5 June 2016 (EDT)

Saw you using one of my renders
Remember King Kruiser II? I made that image render you used on there. ^^
 * Anyways, I just wanted to say that I'm glad you were able to use it. ^-^
 * I have more, but have no clue how to post them in this wiki. XD --M.E.R.255 (talk) 01:19, 31 October 2016 (EDT)
 * Wait, you made the King Kruiser render? I didn't know that... I just saw that some DK64 articles were missing some sprites & renders... So I added some renders & sprites from the DK wikia and DKVine... Oh and I could add some of your other renders on this wiki if you want ^_^ --Metalex123 (talk) 15:37, 31 October 2016 (EDT)

Character infoboxes
For character articles with an identifier (e.g. Beanstalk (character)), you need to include the "title" parameter manually otherwise the infobox will include the identifier. Also, don't add the "full name" parameter unless it's different from their "regular" name, as it's completely useless and redundant. 20:25, 26 August 2018 (EDT)
 * Oh okay, I'm not completely used to making character infoboxes yet, but I'll try to not making those mistakes again. Thanks for the info! --Metalex123 (talk) 20:28, 26 August 2018 (EDT)

Klap Trap
This is more like Red and Green Koopa Troopas, which are commonly listed as separate in guides. None of those examples you've listed are even remotely comparable, and in fact have some pretty major differences. This is being given a different hue and less weaknesses, and said guide has proven itself to be unreliable at best regarding enemy classification, as I have stated. And no, the only "simple recolor" pages are for specific RPG enemies, like KP Koopas. Platforming enemies like this are against policy to have "simple recolor" pages. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:26, 7 September 2018 (EDT)
 * ... Why repost it in my talk page? I don't understand the logic there... --Metalex123 (talk) 22:32, 7 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Because you weren't responding in a timely enough manner for my tastes, that's why. Goombo is still quite different due to its deliberately different design, which as its name suggests, is more Chibi. "Purple Klaptrap" is a hue realignment that happens to be more hardy. ie, little different from the various Shy Guy colors in Paper Mario: Color Splash.

Finding official names
Hi, when you find an official name, like you did with La planète de Donkey Kong, you need to move the corresponding category and its subcategories as well. Thanks! 18:28, 17 September 2018 (EDT)
 * Oh yeah, sorry about that. I had completely forgot to also rename the category... Next time I'll remember, thanks for telling me ^_^ --Metalex123 (talk) 18:36, 17 September 2018 (EDT)

Crash's crappy wikia
I will always love this "overthinking video game biology" thing in the Flytrap article's trivia: "How the purple water-variant of the Venus Fly Trap has survived is a mystery, expending energy to open and clamp the jaws every 3 seconds would quickly be evolved out." : P-Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 17:44, April 25, 2019 (EDT)
 * This is hilariously bad, I love it xD (Hopefully, if a new Crash Wiki is made, this kind of thing won't be included :p) --Metalex123 (talk) 17:55, April 25, 2019 (EDT)

I replaced an image that is used on your sandbox
Hello, I have replaced File:Bowserbattlesmg2.jpg (which is used on your sandbox) with File:Bowser's Gravity Boss.png. I just wanted to let you know because the old image has been deleted, so you may want to change to the new one. Also, moved File:The-gigantic-bowser.JPG to File:SMG2 Super Bowser Intro.jpg. (I will also probably replace that image sometime in the next few weeks.) -- 16:13, June 14, 2019 (EDT)
 * Okay, that's good to know, thanks! I don't really mind if images used on my sandbox are replaced with other ones and they become just red links, because this is just a sandbox page I use to remember templates and (sometimes) put articles that I didn't agree with them being removed (like the Kong Family page). Thanks for telling me though ^_^ --Metalex123 (talk) 17:27, June 15, 2019 (EDT)
