Only if they eat fish: a gull trap's the only thing I have access to atm.

Actually, I think it should go the opposite direction, with {{anotherlanguage}} only for things that should have English names due to having English releases, but don't. It just seems silly to have a template talking about finding English names for subjects that were never released outside of...

For these pages, it's not so much an identifier as a naming standard (in fact, Mario Kart is also a redirect to "MK (series)", and has been since 2006), and I feel like consistency should win out: it's easier to remember what links to add to pages when they're all the same, rather than having to...

I disagree completely: to me, 3px looks much better than 2px (and as for why bars are needed at all, it's for clarity, especially when you consider that some boxes end up spilling into multiple lines of text, rather than always being a straightforward one-liner "subject-data" setup). 3px is...

I had a dream where I was painting a wall with some other wiki admins. But it was hard because it had to transition from light blue to greenish and then back to blue, and paint rollers don't lend themselves to the artistic, swirly cloud-like blending of colours we were aiming for. Also one end...

Every time I make a typo in an edit summary or log = failure. Plus the usual stupid comment here and there, be it from my silly n00b days, moody teen years, or "argh, should've know better than that" present reality.

I dunno, seems like the userbase and/or staff aren't taking themselves seriously enough to have that sort of content floating about. How do they handle serious things like Luigi's hidden dark side or how Daisy's appearance has changed over the years? That sort of content's much more important...

Then vote to unFA it like what was done with the Baby DK page. Just doesn't seem like an automatic stripping of the FA status is justified or lawful this time, is all I'm saying.

Given how massive the Mario page is in general, having a "rewrite-expand" template might seem a bit silly, even if it is true when it comes to certain topics. Although my general feeling is that Construction is best used when a page has conspicuously under-construction chunks: empty or missing...

I changed the PM templates and bestiary draft (User_talk:Megadardery/Sandbox#Enemy_Stats_chart) to have the lighter-coloured backgrounds (now it's the sane as the backgrounds of the nav templates, so really, it's better this way in more ways than one). I also finished all the rest of the...

"Not Your Kind of People" - Garbage To this day, it still makes me think of that one Tabuufic where it was used in a karaoke scene.

Honestly, don't even bother with making the foreignname templates: you won't be able to translate anything anyway, which is half the point, so just leave that whole task to someone who can do it all the way though, and focus your energy on something else that doesn't involve Japanese.

I went through and everything seems to be in order now. For the most part, if the proper romanization's there, and it sounds like the English word, then it's following policy. As for what to put on the tops of pages, it should indeed be: Or, in cases where Japanese transliterations of...

For full clarity about the "why" behind the order, the original post was (from the admin board): After that, the topic got changed and nothing more was said about it. It was always on my to-do list to get back to it, but seeing as there's a few types of large pages, and numerous smaller types...

I think it'd be worth having pages. We have articles for far more minor, data-scarce things that people are less likely to want to read about. Completeness and consistency are good.

Neat. Although yeah, it's weird that in the Kotaku interview, he contradicts what he told us about Larry, instead saying there is no namesake, whereas 3 years ago, he specifically said it was Larry Mullen Jr. I'd be more tempted to stick with what he went out of his way to tell us, rather than...

4 - 5 - 6 - 1 - 2 - 3 The prequels work best as prequels, rather than the first films you see, since they're designed to have shoutouts, foreshadowing and whatnot (ranging from cameos to plot points to background music) which lose some meaning and impact when you don't know what they're...

"Dance of the Fates" - Auralnauts

My thoughts exactly. Although I would like to say, if I have a choice, I'd wanna go out like Lemmy: playing videogames with your kids one day, find out oh shit you have cancer, 3 days later, dead. None of that slowly wasting away nonsense. Live hard, die hard, but at a respectable age after...

"I was a wimp before the Vader mask! Now, I'm a jerk and everybody loves me."

Question: is the idea still to remove the nomination to simply strip the FA status without a vote? Because looking at the page and the rules again, I feel like that'd be a bad move too: it's still a decent-sized page thanks to the planets (not that the rules even have a hard cut-off anymore...

Just watched Apocalypse Zero Episode 2. Less gory than part 1, but with more insane genital weapons. Still, you gotta admire how much content they manage to squeeze into half an hour: not one but two monsters of the day, the second of which turns into a final confrontation between the main hero...

It's hardly ninja-ing when he posted 5 hours before you.

I had a big pros/cons post all ready, but like a dozen post conflicts have made it obsolete, so I'll just say yeah, do what Glowsquid said: a "Moschino" article (fitting nicely in {{companies}}) with a "Super Moschino" section (including info and a gallery subsection) would be the best way to do...

Correction: it's a website with lots of Super Mario Facts. To find it, search things you see on Twitter: odds are, they weren't fixed in the meantime.

I've been working on making horizontal versions of all the RPG templates and was planning on making a proposal to get all the redesigns cleared at the same time. This could be part of the same proposal, seeing as it dovetails perfectly with needing to update and expand the content of many of the...

Mine was like, ten years ago or something. I have a tiny bathtub - its name is a lie for anyone over their tweens.

Maybe it's on purpose: I've seen lots of fan-theories that one thing or another in the film are references to various EU things. And sometimes ideas just occur to more than one person by chance. Or perhaps there's a third source both took inspiration from, idk.

It was foreshadowing of things to come - of when Toads would become all the random NPCs as of Paper Mario: Sticker Star.

lol, no you're not. You got fired before the usergroup even existed - you're freakin' banned from writing for the 'Shroom for the next few months. Like seriously, why are you even still posting in here, saying delusional things like how you're gonna write for all the subteams next year, and get...

My new ranking is: originals > 7 > prequels

My guess for the spoiler is that... But those are just guesses, and could easily be wrong. As for a non-played straight happy ending... But again, that's just me making shit up - who knows what Hussie has in mind.

I really hope it's not a trollish, "the joke was on the readers all along, olol" ending. That's not good writing, that's just being an asshole to the people who enjoyed your stuff and supported you for years, as well as undermining yourself and the great stuff you did with a shitty ending: not...

Star Wars: The Force Awakens - Loved it. Likeable new characters, cool nostalgia, interesting storyline. The main downside is that you can't really talk about it with people who haven't watched it because it's like half spoilers. Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan - Still my fave Trek film: never...

Mrs. Brown's Boys

2D > 3D anyway. Shame so much time and money was wasted trying to salvage the original plans, but whatever, hopefully the games will indeed be much better this way than they would have been that way. Also, news update on Homestuck proper: REALLY hope he'll be able to hit the 4/13 goal, and is...

Hmmm, perhaps in light of the lack of a source, we should just change all the stats into the rounded numbers that can be confirmed with your guide, and which are also being used on all the individual kart articles (example (4-Wheel Cradle)) - although I'm wondering if there are x.5 values too...

Three pages isn't enough cause for resorting to css outsourcing, but I agree that just having the {{color-link}}s is the simplest solution. You already have the hover text copied from my template for everything but the basically-self-explanatory HP, Level, Attack, Defence, Moves, Location(s)...

I like it when Bowser's funny but competent, so the more recent games definitely have SS and PiT beat, although the only one I've actually played so far is BIS, which still had some frustrating too-dumb-to-live moments, but overall, was a good depiction of him.

"L'il Red Riding Hood" - Amanda Seyfried

I got 2 packs of Pokemon cards from my bro; some chocolates, a book, a set of LEGO birds and some misc. odds and ends from my parents (fortunately, mostly useful stuff); $65 in cash from extended family members; and a $20 gift card from my boss. I was pretty happy with this year: usually my mom...

I've never met anyone IRL who celebrates Kwanzaa.

They're better than nothing.

Saw it today. Was pretty great. Lots of fun shout-outs to the original trilogy (pretty much anything to do with the Falcon was awesome), likeable new characters (I was particularly skeptical of BB-8 going in, since I didn't think the droid duo needed another member, but that little guy is...

I'm glad winter's been mild so far: no shovelling, easier driving conditions, lower heating bills, no walking though slush puddles, snow drifts and black ice... Like srsly, once you're an adult and are too poor to ski or afford skates, winter sucks.
