Moving to NIWA
Is this move to NIWA official? I'm just not 100% sure. Shark (talk) 19:15, September 29, 2010 (UTC)
- This is more of like the userbase moving and taking their content with them. The old Smash Wiki will still be here, but mostly everyone will be there. So I don't think this would count as being "official". Omega Tyrant

Honestly, IDK. But Megatron1 said that the administrative forces are moving here, so people will be more active here than on the old Smash Wiki. Dang, just looking around makes me feel like I've just moved to a new house. But in this case, unpacking the boxes is basically importing and/or re-uploading content. Actually, I don't really know the purpose of this move. Hopefully, we'll figure it out soon.

- How are we going to attract new users? Googling "Smashwiki" gets you to the wikia one, not this one. Mr. Anon (talk) 23:36, 4 October 2010 (EDT)
Like I said before, IDK.

I agree we need to make the old Smashwiki into a big link that goes to here so we get more users, but there are probably better ideasScoobford (talk) 21:13, 15 October 2010 (EDT)
- Except wikia will be mad pissed if we do and will remove it. Before you guys even bother to make a post, at least consider what we already did and what we can't do.--MegaTron1XD

- Some of the stuff I will replace with "actual page over here", like the Smash Arena and all my data. I think we should try to make as big a drain as we think we can get away with. Toomai Glittershine

That was more of what i was talking about -Scoobford (talk) 22:39, 15 October 2010 (EDT)
- If the edit is good enough, I stole it.--MegaTron1XD 22:40, 15 October 2010 (EDT)
ps.
we should chat. :) – Emmett 20:11, 18 October 2010 (EDT)
Melee Head Icons
Where can you find them? I am trying to upload them. Zeldasmash (talk) 19:54, 21 October 2010 (EDT)
- Try SmashBoards. Miles (talk) 19:55, 21 October 2010 (EDT)
- Smashboards only has SSBM head icons for the five that didn't return for Brawl (as far as I know). I wouldn't know where to find them otherwise. Toomai Glittershine 19:58, 21 October 2010 (EDT)
- No. I already checked, but when i tried to upload them, the entire thing showed up. (They were stuck in a matchup chart, they came along with it). Zeldasmash (talk) 20:02, 21 October 2010 (EDT)
- Here are the melee icons. Zeldasmash (talk) 18:18, 24 October 2010 (EDT)
[1]
- I apologize the image if it bothers.
- Do you know how to separate them from the chart? Zeldasmash (talk) 16:42, 29 October 2010 (EDT)
- I probably can, but unless I can get the SSB64 icons from somewhere I won't. We don't need any of the SSBM head icons for right now, so I don't want to put them up unless I can get all of them from all three games. Toomai Glittershine 16:51, 29 October 2010 (EDT)
- Those icons are rare, and in the SSB64 matchup chart, only Brawl versions of the icons appeared. Zeldasmash (talk) 17:14, 29 October 2010 (EDT)
- I looked the SSB64 icons everywhere and i cant find them. Can you just put the SSBM Head icons? Zeldasmash (talk) 15:12, 10 November 2010 (EST)
- Give me a reason as to why the wiki needs them then. I'm not doing something that in the end will only be used by you. Toomai Glittershine 16:10, 10 November 2010 (EST)
- You have been searching for them for quite sometime. It will help the wiki. Its better to use them for the matchup chart and Melee information than those tier list character icons. Zeldasmash (talk) 16:12, 10 November 2010 (EST)
- I actually have not been looking for them. The only reason we have the Brawl head icons is because using the character icon images (which are not designed exclusively for tier list use but happen to be most commonly seen there) in the Brawl matchup table results in a compressed blur of pixels. The SSB64 and SSBM matchup tables aren't nearly as large, so they're perfectly fine as they are. In other words, the head icons are a plan B, not a plan A, and so without a situation that forces their use I won't be expending effort to produce them. You are free to learn how to do so yourself.

Welcome page
Hey, you know what Jello did? Yeah. Ok. Basically, me and Jello are from Bulbapedia. Basically, if you were to add the {{subst:welcome}}, then all one has to do is write that instead of {{subst:welcome|the person being adressed|coding of other user}}. Also, the reason it said Jello was because of the coding here: <includeonly>{{subst:REVISIONUSER}}</includeonly>. Thus, whoever was last to edit that template would have their name on it instead. In other words, if you were the last one to edit that page, it'll say Toomai. Whatever the case, Jello's coding is right. I'll even demonstrate by welcoming another user. If it really doesn't work, then fine. ht14 (talk) 18:13, 29 October 2010 (EDT)
- I didn't know about {{REVISIONUSER}}, thanks for that. The main reason I reverted was because he forgot to put in the includeonly, making it appear that he just stuck his name in. I'll put it in properly. Toomai Glittershine 18:18, 29 October 2010 (EDT)
- Yeah, sorry about that, I realized that after I saved the page. :P. I'm a girl, btw. —♥ Jellotalk 18:30, 29 October 2010 (EDT)
matchup chart
Is there a reason why you reverted my edit? That matchup chart is old and out of date in comparison to the matchup chart seen there. Please message me on my profile if you saw a reason for editing. --KoRoBeNiKi (talk) 22:09, 31 October 2010 (EDT)
It can be re-edited back. sorry for the confusion. But keep the new notes in terms of the matchup chart
Hey Toomai.
I see this place is independent now, just like when it was when I joined it in July of 2007. Good times. I'm glad to see that contributions were carried over, but apparently access types were not. Can I have my rollback/admin powers back? --Posted by Pikamander2 (Talk) at 17:19, 1 November 2010 (EDT)
- Yeah alright. Toomai Glittershine 17:50, 1 November 2010 (EDT)
Image Maps
Out of curiosity, do you know how to work an image map? I've been experimenting with them, but do not fully understand location values. HavocReaper48 (talk) 17:16, 2 November 2010 (EDT)
- The top left corner of the image is position
[1,1] (I am presuming it works with human numbers and not computer numbers, in which case it would start at [0,0]). The bottom-right corner is at [how_fat,how_tall]. Is that what you wanted to know? Toomai Glittershine 17:39, 2 November 2010 (EDT)
Smashwiki logo
Thanks for your effort with the logo proposal, I appreciate it. Shark (talk) 08:24, 3 November 2010 (EDT)
Evaluate me
Would you mind doing a user evaluation of me? Don't be afraid to be blunt. No, this isn't another bite at adminship, I've accepted that my best role here is as an editor. Though being able to block people would be nice. Mr. Anon (talk) 20:19, 5 November 2010 (EDT)
- Hmm, I'll work on that for a bit and get back to you on your talk page in a day or two. Toomai Glittershine 20:27, 5 November 2010 (EDT)
- Thanks. I hope this doesn't take time out of any of your projects. Mr. Anon (talk) 20:36, 5 November 2010 (EDT)
Uh..
Why delete my matchup template? Zeldasmash (talk) 13:39, 7 November 2010 (EST)
- I didn't delete it, read the logs more carefully. I moved it to User:Zeldasmash/Character Matchups (SSBB). You don't need things to start with "Template" to use the {{transclution}} feature. Toomai Glittershine 13:40, 7 November 2010 (EST)
Interwiki
How did you edit it? Also, the Wars Wiki entry needs updating, as they now have articles laid out as http://warswiki.warscentral.com/Tank and the like. Miles (talk) 17:38, 9 November 2010 (EST)
- Only bureaucrats can edit Special:Interwiki from what I can tell. I just changed the warswiki link. Toomai Glittershine 17:59, 9 November 2010 (EST)
- Noted. I trust you'll keep the interwiki up-to-date as NIWA adds members. Miles (talk) 18:10, 9 November 2010 (EST)
There appears to be a typo in the Metroid Wiki interwiki entry. Miles (talk) 23:51, 12 November 2010 (EST)
- It's still not working, even though the similar WikiBound version seems to be working fine. Miles (talk) 12:08, 13 November 2010 (EST)
- It should be good now; I had to make a blank edit to the pages to kick them into realizing things had changed. Toomai Glittershine 12:11, 13 November 2010 (EST)
How do you know so much?
Dude, how do you know so much about Brawl? Do you hack the game or something? Mr. Anon (talk) 15:06, 11 November 2010 (EST)
- Yes he does.--MegaTron1XD 15:08, 11 November 2010 (EST)
Technically no, but in a way yes. Most things I determine by looking at data, which isn't hacking in the common sense of the word, since I didn't do anything but download the files and related programs from other people that hacked them out. I have done some actual hacking though, which will be part of things like HP determination. Toomai Glittershine 15:57, 11 November 2010 (EST)
