Hi there

Hello!!! I am from Argentina sorry is my english is not so good.--Eze 02:23 ,26 december 2012 (EST)

No problem! :) Welcome to the wiki. Also, if someone makes a comment on your Talk Page, please reply to them on your Talk Page in the future! --GlitterBerri 22:11, 4 January 2013 (EST)

TY

Thank you very much for your answer, man. Although i still have doubts about the HKO´s. // Angus_Macgyver (talk 11:09, 6 Jan 2013 (EDT)

Apparently they're allowed, and we already have a few here, so feel free to document them. :) Again, please reply to other users' comments on the Talk Pages they were made on in the future, OK? --GlitterBerri 15:21, 6 January 2013 (EST)

Stop being a jerk

I run multiple blogs and YT channels. Unless you'd like an epic video written about how much of a tool you're being, you better stop removing my video. There is no good reason for you to be removing it. I am getting sick and tired of "Admins" reverting edits on wikia pages that already have Youtube videos, just because you have a personal agenda. Wikias are supposed to be for people to add information to freely. --Rpgfanboy 15:33, 6 January 2013 (EST)

And before you respond give me one good reason why my video does not improve the article, since the article, which currently doesn't fully explain anything about the game. --Rpgfanboy 15:34, 6 January 2013 (EST)

We're not here to explain the game. Go add your article "review" to Wikipedia, I'm sure they'd love to have it. --Xk-sig.png Xkeeper (talk) 15:35, 6 January 2013 (EST)
Your video has nothing to do with the content covered on TCRF, so it's not relevant here. That's all the reason I need. We don't endeavor to explain anything about games, as you might know if you looked at our guidelines. This isn't a wikia page, and it seems like they have the same problem with your video that we do. This isn't a democracy, this is a privately-run wiki. --GlitterBerri 15:37, 6 January 2013 (EST)

Help

I've been working on the Mafia II page and some pieces of text seem to be going all the way to the side. Is there a way to fix this?--WLSI cactus 01.gifAK47Productions

It seems like stuff in pre tags doesn't wrap automatically. That means you either need to manually insert line breaks, or take the text out of pre and organize it some other way. If you want an easy way of dividing up sections of text without having them in handy boxes like that, you can use four dashes (----) to insert a horizontal line. Maybe I should add these things to the Edit Help section too. :) --GlitterBerri 17:44, 30 January 2013 (EST)

N64 Screenshot Resolution

Hi, I started a discussion about this on the image help page and I wanted to make sure you saw it: Help_talk:Contents/Images. In short, the current guidelines over at RHDN are what the NTSC console would output, not what the games are actually rendering at. --Dragonsbrethren 14:16, 4 February 2013 (EST)

Hi there, I saw that. I wish I could contribute, but I actually don't know too much about screen resolutions and the like. Someone like BMF54123 might be able to weigh in better than I could. --GlitterBerri 16:52, 4 February 2013 (EST)
Gotcha, I'll point it out to BMF. --Dragonsbrethren 17:12, 4 February 2013 (EST)

Holy Crap!!

Are you the same GlitterBerri that translated the Zelda Official Timeline from the Hyrule Historia back in 2011?! I was just reading Destructoid's review on the American release and they had a link back to the original translation of the Japanese timeline and it said it was done by GlitterBerri. If that's you, then what a boss! You're awesome!! :D

...although if I'm wrong, then sorry for sounding like a weirdo.... --(Goblinaro 15:42, 4 February 2013 (EST))

Yep, that's me. You can find my website here. Thanks for the kind words! :) --GlitterBerri 16:52, 4 February 2013 (EST)

Black Ops 2

Thanks, I will try to if I can, btw i'm new to this wiki, I am currently also reading the guidelines, thanks for the nice feedback! --Spxdes

Thanks, I appreciate it! No harm meant. Remember, we only cover early and unused content if it's still found in the game code, so don't add anything about "beta" content, okay? Also, please reply to people's comments on the talk page they were left in order to avoid splitting up the conversation. You can read more about talk pages here! --GlitterBerri 22:46, 17 February 2013 (EST)

Pre Release "Archive"

Though Im sure this may have been brought up before but with all this pre release material coming in the wiki maybe its time to get some kinda archive going? Just a thought. --WLSI cactus 01.gifAK47Productions

It's been discussed in the forums a few times, but I think it's easier said than done to create a prerelease material section. While I myself am interested in something like that, there's also concern that it would turn TCRF into a hive of the baseless speculation it's so easy to make when it comes to early and cut content. In addition, we'd have to figure out what's relevant and what's redundant in terms of screenshots and footage. For example, I have a ton of Zelda prerelease footage on my site, but a lot of it depicts only minor differences. Is that important enough to archive? Does TCRF have enough space for hundreds of additional screenshots? --GlitterBerri 22:46, 17 February 2013 (EST)
I'd definitely like to see a place to put prerelease screenshots/footage with rules similar to the ones here. No speculation, just facts and pretty pictures. As for redundancy, that depends on the goal. Is the archive intended to be taken literally, archiving any and all prerelease material? Or is it only intended to document things that actually changed/were removed during development? IMO, the latter fits with TCRF's style better. Example: I have a crapload of screenshots showing the old AK47 model in GoldenEye. I really only need to post two: One showing it in profile, one showing it in first person view. --Dragonsbrethren 01:54, 18 February 2013 (EST)

Shh

Maybe you should just shut up, GlitterBerri! — Vague / Rant 02:14, 19 February 2013 (EST)

The Wind Waker

Hey there, GlitterBerri! I haven't seen you around on IRC lately. No worries, though. I know people get busy.

Just wanted to mention that I noticed something interesting when I was staring at the folders in TWW's Stage directory. While the Ganon's Tower files are contained in folders called "GanonX", where X is a letter starting from A, there are four missing folders - they go from E to J, skipping F, G, H, and I. This means that they were deleted for some reason... Interestingly, B, C, D, and E are Dragon Roost Cavern's, the Wind Temple's, Forest Haven's, and the Earth Temple's (in that order, bizarrely) mini-trials. With the dungeon mini-trials grouped like this, could it be that F, G, H, and I were the fire and ice dungeons (the ones implied by the "Minikaz" and "Minihyo" mini-dungeon folder names), Jabun's cut dungeon, and the Tower of the Gods or another cut dungeon? Something to think about! -Gamma 17:18, 13 March 2013 (EDT)

Japanese translation on Sonic Mega Collection

Hello, since you seem to be much more fluent in Japanese than I am, I was wondering if you would take a look at my short translation on Talk:Sonic Mega Collection.

Particularly, I translated この冬発売予定 まっててね! as "Planned release is this winter, can you wait!" but I'm uncertain about the まっててね. From context, I'm 90% certain that it's the potential form of 待つ, but since it's written in kana I can't be 100% certain and would like to get an opinion from someone more fluent before I add it to the page.

Thank you!

Prerelease Articles

Saw you're putting up help pages for these, it cool to start creating them? --Dragonsbrethren (talk) 01:01, 26 December 2013 (EST)

Go wild! That being said, the rules are subject to change and undergo tweaking as we see how Prerelease articles actually turn out in practice. I'm currently doing an Ocarina of Time prerelease page which will ideally serve as an example, once I'm finished! --GlitterBerri (talk) 01:16, 26 December 2013 (EST)

A problem about translating

Apparently, if a translation contains an external link (e.g. SpellCheckPlus), it will not save correctly. To save my translation on Help:Contents/Rules & Guidelines, I had to mention SpellCheckPlus without the link... This must have something to do with the captcha required when entering external links on any sort of edit, except no captcha appears on the translation page. Any ideas?
Also, I have 3 more things to point out. First, frequently, a translation will say "saving..." indefinitely; it'll save successfully, but it'll glitch some things up. It might be a glitch with the extension itself, but maybe you know what's up. Secondly, I talked to divingkataetheweirdo about all translated main pages containing a warning for foreigns users to use English in their articles, and not the language the main page is currently at for them. I did this on my translation already, but I never saw it become an official guideline or anything, so I thought I'd bring it up again. Finally, could you add my name to the list of translators real quick? I'm doing the European Portuguese translation; TempleofDreams is doing the Brazilian Portuguese one. {EspyoT} 16:40, 4 January 2014 (EST)

Question About "Sources"

Hi, I have a question about something that bugs me a lot, and that is, do I use sources to cite information that:

  • I got from other sites (for example, this);
  • was discovered by me, or someone else that has an account in the wiki;
  • or both?

(also, thank you very much for recommending SpellCheckPlus for me, it helped me A LOT) TempleofDreams (talk) 21:11, 17 January 2014 (EST)

No problem, your English seems flawless now. :) As for sources, it's courteous to credit people for their findings or work in uncovering something. When it comes to crediting yourself, it's up to you whether or not you want to. As the wiki is a public works project, I think some people find it a little stuck up to always credit yourself for everything you add to the wiki, but if you worked really hard on something and want to be cited as the source, then you should add your name. In my case, other people usually credit me when I help them with translations that they add to the wiki, but I don't credit myself when I add translations to the wiki. --GlitterBerri (talk) 23:53, 17 January 2014 (EST)
