[edit] New Pages
Hey! I see that you're making a lot of new videogame related pages. You might consider joining the computer and video game project- right now I'm adding all of your new pages to the "new pages section" and attributing them to you. --PresN 22:57, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- Actually, PresN doesn't really seem to have the time to add all the new articles to Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer and video games/New article announcements.. and I need to get some sleep too :) So it would be great if you could add them yourself. That way other video game editors on Wikipedia can be alerted to the new articles and hopefully you'll get some help expanding them. Cheers, Ajaxfan 23:11, 1 August 2006 (UTC)
- Don't worry about it, Timkovski, I've got it covered. Noah A. 00:06, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Nintendo 64 games
Hmm, good question. Unfortunately, no, I don't know of a specific source for Japan-only games. I've just been googling their titles from the list page which got me to several different pages, mostly import sites. As to where the titles came from in the first place, you'll probably have to ask someone else. Perhaps you/we could find a Japanese speaking wikipedian that could help us out? --ADeveria 14:16, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Just found this site, should help you out a little bit. --ADeveria 15:21, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
Wow, that does indeed look like an excellent resource! Thanks! --ADeveria 13:01, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] More about {{gamecover}}
Just wanted to let you know that the {{gamecover}} template accepts the platform of the game as a parameter. Please take advantage of this feature, we are trying to keep images in Category:Video game covers sorted into their appropriate subcategories. Keep up the good work!

[edit] Japanese titles
You're creating lots of pages with Japanese names, but your link to "Japanese" is heading to a disambiguation page, and the formatting for the Japanese is different from the standard. Please use Template:Nihongo to explain the Japanese titles, and please help me fix the redirects to the disambiguation page. Thanks! Dekimasu 14:25, 7 August 2006 (UTC)
- The style is
-
{{nihongo|'''English'''|Kanji|Romaji|extra|extra2}}
- so; leave "nihongo" the way it is, then fill in the English title. Place the Japanese text next, and then the direct transliteration of it (not needed if the transliteration is the same as the title). You shouldn't need to use the last two spots. So for a game called "Fun English" this would look like
-
{{nihongo|'''Fun English'''|楽しい英語|tanoshii eigo}}
- and would show up as Fun English (楽しい英語 tanoshii eigo?). Hope this helps! Dekimasu 02:54, 8 August 2006 (UTC)
I need help with Japanese titles also. Timkovski made one for me before, for Legacy of the Wizard, and all I did was copy and paste it into the article. I don't know how to make the Japanese characters themselves, nor do I know what characters to use since all I have is the English transliteration for the titles. The articles I'm working now:
- Rygar (NES game) - Japanese title Argos no Senshi
- Inindo: Way of the Ninja - Japanese title Super Inindo: Datou Nobunaga
If you have some spare time, would you please make the nihongo titles for these? Thanks a bunch. - New User 19:48, 20 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Highschool! Kimen-gumi pachinko game images
These aren't boardgames, and therefore {{boardgamecover}} isn't applicable to them. That's why {{gamecover}} was used as the closest thing to what they are is the cover of a game. The pictures are of the faces of the pachinko games. ···日本穣? · Talk to Nihonjoe 18:44, 8 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Madden Images
All of those images for Madden are found at that location. You just do not have access to it, as I do. Please revert them back to what I had them at. --Josh 20:57, 6 October 2006 (UTC)
Once again I am requesting that you revert them back. Please to not make me take alternate action. I know you have been on wikipedia since my last notice on here. --Josh 16:31, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
My mistake the images are located at info.ea.com not EASports.com. --Josh 19:15, 7 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Re: Donkey Konga
My apologies; I just saw the PAL version of the box cover. Have a nice day! MToolen 11:55, 11 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Sourcing of cover art
Hi, I apreciate the effort, I rely do unsourced mages are a big problem. However you seem to have gotten a little bit carried away. For images that are of copyrighted works themselves it is not rely important to know who copied the image and how (I mean it's nice to know, but not critical). All we need to know who hold the copyright, wich is usualy the person who originaly made it (or work it is a part of), or the company/organization who paid them to do so. For example the title (ISBN number would be good too) of a book is generaly sufficient sourcing for a bookcover image since based on that you can easily track down the copyright holder. Wether the image we have was taken from amazon, scanned in by the user or cropped from a digitized photograph is not rely importnat, in either case the image is still copyrighted by the publisher who commissioned it or the artist who made the cover art itself. Same goes for things like posters, magazine covers, various screenshots, album and gamecovers. I mention this since you reverted my attempts to fix some of status of some of the madden covers you tagged as no source. For things like that it's generaly considered enough to say what it's the cover of and who published it. The purpose of the source is to determine the copyright holder and status after all, this does not always require an URL to a web location. If there is no info available listing as no source makes sense, but often taking a look at the article is enough to identify it, and then it's better to just add the missing info yourself. --Sherool (talk) 20:30, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Awesome Image
Hello, thanks for updating the picture I uploaded, by the way what would be considered low resolution?--Williamsayers79 17:08, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
[edit] AfD
Well, I didn't think there was a consensus to delete. Merging/redirecting doesn't require an AfD. --W.marsh 19:01, 7 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Excuse me, Mr. Timkovski
Forgive me, but I wanna know what kind of license I must choose for the image MVSC2HULK.jpg, which is an image from the game Marvel vs. Capcom 2: New Age of Heroes, at the Hulk's article. If it's not possible, please erase the image. Brazilian Man 02:22, 22 November 2006 (UTC)
[edit] NP
My collection starts around 87...I've been trying to finagle the issue 1-129 PDF torrent out of here to no avail. But the guy who created it is on their forums regularly; you could probably ask him to simply let you download it directly. I'd host it on the Chrono Compendium's server for download by Wikipedians, even. --Zeality 21:42, 26 November 2006 (UTC)
