Instruction Manuals
Just so everyone knows, Nintendo now keeps various instruction manuals from newer games on their website in PDF form. They may prove to be a helpful source of information for editors, so consider downloading them to your computer if you think that could help you improve our articles. Here's the link: Nintendo Instruction Manuals =D --
 * If it weren't for the miles of distance between us, I'd be hugging you right now... as strange as that sounds. This is going to make things so much easier!  20:10, 25 November 2008 (EST)
 * Excellent work finding that, SoS! This'll definitely help the wiki in many ways. 20:12, 25 November 2008 (EST)

I quite noticed this, since I wrote the article of the WMOD staff list. And despite the fact I know a certain website that keeps most the instruction manuals scanned in PDF form, SoS, Stumpy, Stooben; want me to share it? >:3 It might turn out good for all of us. :3 FYI, I also uploaded some more rare SMRPG images a while ago... from the SMRPG manual. ^_^
 * Um, okay, what is it?
 * * Jumps over himself trying to stop you from leaving* Please share!! 22:30, 25 November 2008 (EST)

(chuckles) Ok ok... :3 I don't normally share it to anyone except certain people I trust. But anyway, here it is: replacementdocs Guys, good luck. There may be some good oldies! Although I have about over 20 resources for me to use, I may write some guideline about it... I may think about it... :p

Internet browsers
In the internet, there are different browsers for us to choose from, :3 like the recent Google Chrome, and Apple's Safari now for the Windows operating. As those browsers develop more and more, do you think that we look over the wiki in a different point of view just by using a different internet browser? And for simpler aspects, what type of internet browser do you use and why do you use it?

As I found out the differences, unfortunately yes. In order to make this quick, here's the short version: I noticed when I was looking at one of the aboutfile templates placed on long file names. When I told Wayo that there was a problem with the aboutfile template, but mentioned that there was nothing wrong. He was using Firefox, and I was using IE7. He checked the difference, and it was finally spotted. They say there was no way to get rid of it.... hm. Recently I was editting this section, Chemistry and saw two differences between the internet browser I used now and IE. My browser showed me that it looked visually fresh, while using the IE browser it looked bland.

I'm using Safari right now. One of the fastest browsers known to mankind man! XP It's fast, and flexible, feeling very calm but powerful indeed. I heard the browser passed some test that no other browser cannot... check Wikipedia for details I guess. Do you think that we should use the same internet browser? Or modify the coding that makes it compatible to at least all the modren-day browsers? Warning: This certain section may or not be viewed in a millisecond if you look at the right. XD. *coughadcough*

I notice that too when I used a windows XP but now I use a Windows Vista to get here. If you used a windom XP on here all the words on the article look different aswell. But if you user windows Vista word on article seem different. I guess and user see some thing different depening on the machine their using and the system right. What do you mean by using the same internet browsers? Some user might have Windows while others have Apple. 07:10, 26 November 2008 (EST)

I use a earlier version of IE, my computer's from 2001. Surpresingly everything works and looks fine. I realy have no problems, except sometimes it has a problem and shuts down if someone edits a User Talk Page when I'm looking at it, not mine, but the busier ones, like Wayoshi's.

I use Firefox to block all the ads on this page. I don't want my surfing experience being disrupted by anybody who wants me to buy their stuff.

I don't think we should have a different coding for each browser. They should all work in alike ways, and there might only be few display issues with them. - 11:09, 26 November 2008 (EST)

All the web browsers that take us to the internet right? So there all alike but used in different systems. 11:48, 26 November 2008 (EST)
 * Now that's not exactly true. Browsers download the raw HTML code and then build up the site following that code. A few code commands may be interpreted differently by different browsers. Certain image file types might also not be compatible with all browsers. (e.g. .SVG and Internet Explorer) - 13:47, 26 November 2008 (EST)

I also use firefox, and the only difference is that in firefox, the edges of the side bar and the upper part are round, and in IE, they're pointed, like this ¬
