Captions

Please don't go around editing articles just to add stupid captions. We have a rule against this. --BMF54123 17:42, 28 June 2012 (EDT)

JPEG Images

Game screenshots must be uploaded in PNG format. JPEGs are not allowed here because the loss of detail due to compression artifacts is too great. The only exception is for game resources that are already stored in JPEG format. --BMF54123 13:57, 29 June 2012 (EDT)

Uploading PNG conversions of JPEGs is not allowed, either. Take some time to read the Image Guidelines, please. --BMF54123 15:30, 13 December 2012 (EST)

Stop uploading JPEGs. This is your last warning. --BMF54123 20:03, 16 December 2012 (EST)

Categorization

I have noticed several of your uploads are missing categorization. Please add this to your uploads, as it makes it easier which platform the content originated from (See this link for more information). --From: divingkataetheweirdo 14:19, 24 July 2012 (EDT)

On that note, when uploading images, make sure to add the game's name. --From: divingkataetheweirdo 13:38, 28 July 2012 (EDT)

Warning

You need to stop overriding administrative edits. I should not have had to revert the Hey You, Pikachu! title screen twice; that is how the screen is SUPPOSED to look, letterbox and all. Images need to be uploaded at their native resolution, as they appear in the game (or as close as possible, given emulator limitations), without any crappy resampling or JPEG artifacts; all of this is spelled out in the image guidelines, which you were supposed to have read before uploading anything. This is your only warning; next time will be a temporary ban. --BMF54123 15:59, 15 September 2012 (EDT)

Windows XP

Barring that this might does not even qualify (according to BMF54123) because it's not strictly a game:

1. The title screen is not even a valid resolution. A virtual machine should be able to give you the proper resolution.
2. Microsoft Bear - the associated program dates back to Windows 95; I don't know what it does
3. Logon Screen - USED. It's the fallback if you disable the Welcome screen or use a system set up with domain login. If you ever used a public Windows XP computer (such as grade school computers) you've seen it.
4. Unused MIDIs, Candy Cane texture - no comment; noot sure about either of these
5. Anti-piracy message - I'm not sure what you are trying to say here, but did you get it from Raymond Chen's blog (The Old New Thing)? If so I think you misunderstood what he said (I would need to find the post myself to check)

Well seeing that we have pages for Wii, Nintendo 3DS, Family Computer Disk System, and GameCube, I don't see why it can't be a page.

Pgj1997 15:29, 5 December 2012 (EST)

Had no idea Windows XP was a game console. DryWater 15:30, 5 December 2012 (EST)

We cover video games and video game consoles. That is all. --BMF54123 15:31, 5 December 2012 (EST)

Well, PCs are game consoles in a way, aren't they? Pgj1997 15:32, 5 December 2012 (EST)

We cover video games and video game consoles. Stop trying to split hairs over this. We do not cover operating systems (excluding BIOSes and software built into game consoles), and we never will. End of discussion. --BMF54123 15:39, 5 December 2012 (EST)

Windows XP isn't the same thing as a PC. One of them is a system, one of them is a piece of software which by nature is not considered a video game (for hopefully obvious reasons) --Devin 15:35, 5 December 2012 (EST)

To clarify what andlabs mentioned: setdebug and jdbgmgr are for debugging ActiveX and Java, respectively (not unused; the MIDI files are intended to be used as Windows MIDI Synth demos, every version of Windows since 3.1 includes some of these; you basically described exactly how the candy cane texture IS used --Devin 15:32, 5 December 2012 (EST)

There is actual unused stuff in XP, search the forums, there's a thread on it. It won't likely be accepted here but you can always use the thread. -- Sheeza 15:40, 5 December 2012 (EST)

Last Warning

Stop making useless edits. We have a rather extensive set of Guidelines that explain what is acceptable here, and you should be able to glean from our existing pages what kinds of content we're looking for. --BMF54123 14:42, 21 January 2013 (EST)

For no reason?

You do realize that "Back Off Baby" is used in StrongBadZone, right? Also, differences in instruction wording between regular and console-specific versions isn't enough to justify an article's existence. --From: divingkataetheweirdo 13:41, 10 February 2013 (EST)

Since when is it used? Pgj1997 18:29, 10 February 2013 (EST)

Someone mentioned on the Talk page that it randomly appeared when they played the game, complete with the kiss graphic and text. So, since it's been seen "in the wild", that means it's not unused and thus doesn't get a page. --BMF54123 18:39, 10 February 2013 (EST)

I believe that person said it was in the Stage 3 boss? - Andlabs 19:00, 10 February 2013 (EST)

False Information

1. The text "CO.,LTD." was not removed from Donkey Kong to fit in the game's "HEX". It was either to match Nintendo's current copyright style, or to better fit on the screen (probably the latter).
2. The colors are exactly the same between the original and rerelease. If you see a "difference" between the two shots, it's because your emulator is using a different palette than YK's.
3. The DuckTales remake is not "made by the same company". It's being developed by WayForward and published by Capcom.
4. Why did you add "video=yes" to the page?
5. There is no need to add information about a game that hasn't even been released yet. We don't want placeholder information on this wiki.

If you don't want to get blocked again, I highly suggest you do your research before adding anything in the future. --BMF54123 12:51, 3 April 2013 (EDT)

He most likely added "video=yes" because of that "unused" cutscene where the player has $0 on hand. Also of note is that when you put "video=yes", the category for unused cinematics shows up (which does indeed include in-game cutscenes). --From: divingkataetheweirdo 16:25, 3 April 2013 (EDT)

Regardless, I'm not sure it should be readded, as it's technically not an "unused" cutscene. (Maybe this should be brought up on the game's Talk page instead?) --BMF54123 16:54, 3 April 2013 (EDT)

"They were deleted. why?"

The pages were deleted because there was nothing unused on there. The button codes are well-documented on the Internet. Just because Pac-Man and the speed-up features are hidden behind button codes doesn't mean they are "unused". --BMF54123 03:24, 30 June 2013 (EDT)

SM64 painting warps

To answer the question, it's the map of the castle. The top is the entrance, with the exit to the courtyard (and Big Boo's Haunt) at the bottom. -- Xkeeper (talk) 13:55, 8 July 2013 (EDT)

Oh, who knew that made a creepy human shape? Pgj1997 13:58, 8 July 2013 (EDT)

Clarification

Let's clarify a couple of things so you understand why you were blocked (again):

• That "SKITTLES!" on the cleanup templates page has been there since the beginning. It's a bit of harmless humor. Had you bothered to check the page history, you might have noticed that and realized that it wasn't "vandalism", but paying attention doesn't seem to be one of your strong points.
• The sucks template is reserved for the most embarrassingly awful pages on the wiki, which the Wii Play article is obviously not. The tag's usage is quite clearly described in the "tagging articles" section of the rules and guidelines.

Frankly, I'm tired of constantly having to revert your edits and clean up after you. Please note that your next block will most likely be permanent, because I don't feel that talking to brick walls is terribly productive. --BMF54123 (talk) 20:31, 12 September 2013 (EDT)

Image Guidelines

You need to follow the guidelines for taking NES screenshots. Images need to be taken at 256x240 using the correct palette file. --BMF54123 (talk) 13:37, 16 February 2014 (EST)

You need to follow the guidelines when taking NES screenshots! --BMF54123 (talk) 17:31, 20 May 2014 (EDT)

Pretty sure I used the correct palette file this time... Pgj1997 (talk) 17:32, 20 May 2014 (EDT)

Did you miss the part where they need to be 256x240? --BMF54123 (talk) 17:38, 20 May 2014 (EDT)

Hm... it's actually FCEUX's default resolution, I'll see if I can't change it for later use. Pgj1997 (talk) 17:40, 20 May 2014 (EDT)

You are STILL taking screenshots at 256x224. Either you fix this or I'm just going to block you, because I'm sick of talking to brick walls. --BMF54123 (talk) 13:15, 18 June 2014 (EDT)

Wario's Woods Music

Can you please upload the song loops at their correct length? You cut some of them too early. --BMF54123 (talk) 21:08, 31 August 2014 (EDT)

Oh, sure. Sorry. Pgj1997 (talk) 21:09, 31 August 2014 (EDT)

"Stage Clear" Brawl Announcement

Hey there, I remember a little bit ago you edited the Super Smash Bros. Brawl page and mentioned that there was an unused "Stage Clear!" announcement, although the OGG file itself got misplaced and was instead a duplicate of the Fighting Alloy Team OGG. However, I have a quick question to ask you - where did you find those announcements?
I had a sound dump of the PAL version of the game, which had a ton of unused sounds itself, but I wasn't able to pinpoint either this or the FAT announcement anywhere, and I was pretty thorough when I was checking. Did you have the Japanese version by any chance? Or was I just really stupid and missed them off? Crashandcortex (talk) 04:11, 23 November 2014 (EST)

Oh, I'm sorry, I had no idea. I'll go ahead and rescan the BRSAR and see if I can't refind it. I'm certain it's there. I probably just misnamed it. Pgj1997 (talk) 15:29, 24 November 2014 (EST)

PokéPark Wii Revisions

Hi, for PokéPark Wii, is the revision difference on both USA and Europe discs? If so, I want to find it in order to preserve it for redump.org. Larsenv (talk) 19:12, 13 October 2018 (EDT)

I'm not sure... Pgj1997 (talk) 23:02, 16 November 2018 (EST)
