Help pages
Just wondering which pages you were going to adapt from SmashWiki. I was going to update and organize the help contents template, so they link the proper articles that you're putting up.

By the way, thanks for all of the stub organization/template work you've done lately! It helps a lot. :D 14:19, 29 December 2010 (MST)
 * Hey, no problem. Pretty much everything in the "Help pages" row of this template is what I've worked with, and I think most of it is pretty generic and could be very easily tweaked for WikiBound (like the three of them that I already did).  I'd say you can direct where I go from here.
 * Next up on my tweaking list: the disambig template. (You'll see in a sec.) Miles ( talk)   16:39, 29 December 2010 (MST)

Sign
I wanted to make my own signature, but I can't! Can you help me? I want: HomeRunBat to appear. Home is red and link to my userpage, Run is orange and links to my talk and Bat is yellow and link to my contribs. Can you please help?--HomeRunBat 12:32, 9 May 2011 (MDT)
 * Try
 * Home Run  Bat
 * which should generate
 * Home Run  Bat.

Question about Clayman
The spoiler tag overlaps with the enemy table, I tried to fix it but it looked kinda ugly when I previewed, can you give it a try? Multus 14:47, 11 May 2011 (MDT)
 * I'm not seeing an overlap. Again, I'd hazard a guess it's a browser-based issue. Do you have a screenshot of what you're seeing? Miles ( talk)   14:58, 11 May 2011 (MDT)
 * Probably browser-based. This is what I'm getting when using Chrome, though it looks perfectly normal when using, say, IE. Google Chrome apparently tends to be evil when visting here. Weird stuff. ~ Sun Braid 15:18, 11 May 2011 (MDT)
 * It's a common error with Chrome- centered templates tend to not work very well with it, sadly. There's a workaround for it, which I should really get around to implementing... ugh. lol. 15:55, 11 May 2011 (MDT)

Hey, When you get a chance....
Hey when you get a chance, can you check out something i have been working on in my sandbox. Thank you, Tacopill 09:13, 22 May 2011 (MDT),
 * Hey, that's pretty interesting. At some point, we might generate stubs-for-editing that way on the community portal or the Main Page. Right now, though, manual updating has seemed to be fine. Is there some reason to switch? Miles ( talk)   09:15, 22 May 2011 (MDT)
 * No specific reason. Was just trying it out, and wanted to see what people thought.
 * Also, the lists don't necessarily have to be stubs, they can be any category we have on the wiki. Stubs was just the best example i can think of. Tacopill 11:31, 22 May 2011 (MDT).
 * Cool, alright. Miles ( talk)   11:45, 22 May 2011 (MDT)
 * Sounds good, and thank you. Tacopill 12:06, 22 May 2011 (MDT).

Recovery Items EarthBound
Yo, thanks a lot for fixing that issue, I had no idea of why everytime I tried to fix it, it would change and mess itself (I tried by previewing a lot of time)I will add the remaining items soon, thanks again lopl--Fandangox 18:56, 28 May 2011 (MDT)
 * Hey, no problem, lol. It might be a browser thing glitching it up, or else something relating to the editing toolbar (if you have that on in your preferences it can cause problems). Thanks for the hard work! Miles ( talk)   19:43, 28 May 2011 (MDT)
 * eeh I think that what happened happened cause I was using shift + enter instead of just enter to make space... derp sorry lol--Fandangox 20:49, 28 May 2011 (MDT)
 * Such things happen, lol. Miles ( talk)   21:11, 28 May 2011 (MDT)

Items in Mother 3
Should we have a template or something for the second item? Er more importantly, can a template go in a template? Multus 17:00, 29 May 2011 (MDT)
 * We probably should have a variation, but to be quite honest what you're currently doing seems to be working perfectly. (Great work, by the way. We're almost done!)  Miles ( talk)   17:02, 29 May 2011 (MDT)

Character Sprites/images
Just want to know if all the character sprites for EarthBound have been uploaded, and what are their names (the search function on the upload log is weird, and it takes me a long time to find an specific file there). So I can create the info boxes of the missing character pages from EarthBound.--Fandangox 00:26, 30 May 2011 (MDT)
 * The sprites are intermittently uploaded, and if they're not already in an article but they have been uploaded they'll show up in here somewhere. Don't forget clay models where available! Miles ( talk)   00:41, 30 May 2011 (MDT)

Sorry for forgetting the sitenotice.
Sorry for forgetting the sitenotice. Thank you for posting it. :). Tacopill 15:12, 2 June 2011 (MDT).
 * No problem, lol. Miles ( talk)   15:18, 2 June 2011 (MDT)

While you're going through the enemies...
Can you mark which ones don't have their Japanese names up, please? Multus 14:52, 14 July 2011 (EDT)
 * I will from here on out; can you check the ones that need it before Magnet Hill? Miles ( talk)   14:53, 14 July 2011 (EDT)
 * All EB enemies either have their Japanese names up or have been tagged. Miles ( talk)   16:14, 14 July 2011 (EDT)

Music/Combo sounds
Would it be OK to do what you did with music--Great job on that by the way :) -- for the combo sound effects?(For the main characters, or at least for the fake frying pan/bat. I know 'I' didn't have the money to buy them both on my first playthrough, and it haunted me...) Multus 21:33, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Where exactly were you planning on putting those links? Miles ( talk)   21:54, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
 * There's a few things I could do, but I'm thinking a little optional slot on the character infobox. (Maybe a show/hide thing. Not sure.) and putting Fake bat/pan sound off to the side next to the trivia referencing the changed combo sound. Multus 21:59, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Sounds fine. Where are you going to get ogg versions of those sound effects, though? Miles ( talk)   22:45, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
 * It's not too hard to make them, actually. I'm just gonna rip them directly from the game, most likely. I'm not sure whether to do 1 hit or all 3, though... Multus 22:54, 7 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Keep in mind there are six patterns of three notes for each playable character, plus one set of three for each Fake item. (Five of Duster's are unused, seemingly by a bug.) Miles ( talk)   00:06, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Yeah, might have to do just a short 1-hit sample, because looking into the games coding went to no avail, and it isn't easy to combo without sound, haha. (It was so easy to break into Mother1+2's sound, though... what a bummer.) The problem is the combo sounds aren't single sound effects, they're separate bits pieced together. :/ Multus 14:21, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
 * It is possible to start a battle in M3 with no battle song; however, doing so makes it seemingly impossible to combo, unfortunately. If you want to try it out, go for the Wine Glass (ff). Miles ( talk)   15:41, 8 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Well, I did it. It's a shame, I hacked the no music enemy to have its song have a different BPM and you still can't combo, even with cheats... Multus 04:05, 9 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Still, though, nicely done! Though you did miss Claus.... Miles ( talk)   04:21, 9 October 2011 (EDT)
 * Naaaaw I didn't forget Claus, I swear ;P (the reason was Lucas-Salsa is 01-06, Claus is 0D...) Multus 04:28, 9 October 2011 (EDT)

Ayo
Glad to be here. I probably won't be editing too much, but I'll try to contribute at least a bit. Cheers. Bloc Partier 23:13, 13 October 2011 (EDT)

Nonlinear template?
I think for articles like and Chapter 7 it would probably be good to have a template for when you can do things out of order... Would that be okay? Multus 03:21, 24 October 2011 (EDT)
 * It sounds decent in theory. Could I see an example of what you're thinking? Miles ( talk)   03:26, 24 October 2011 (EDT)
