The wiki can always use testing of titles against recent revisions. Details on providing test data are found in the [[Template:Testing/entry#Entry|testing/entry documentation]].
You can help complete the compatibility list by updating the ratings of the unrated titles. If necessary please revise title ratings based on testing.

=== Game Page Status  Template ===
=== Give this a nice update ===
We should probably generate a template to track "completion" and frequency of different tasks for game pages, it could exist on each page's talk page and assist with maintenance. I'd like some help to scope such out here.
[[Project:Wiki Conventions]] Full of outdated information and typos, Simple-player... haha! [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 23:52, 17 January 2018 (CET)
 
:It'd be cool if the protected status was revoked. As things are now, the only people that protected status is blocking are the two of us. And it always seemed a little standoff-ish to have the page for the community's ideas of what the wiki's rules are be edit protected from having the community contribute to it. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 00:36, 18 January 2018 (CET)
 
:: I've rolled back the protection. Though we'll likely want to restore it post clean-up. Tread lightly.[[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 00:41, 18 January 2018 (CET)
 
:::[[User:Lucario]] should edit it first since he asked for it. I'll wait patiently and look at it tomorrow, so we don't clobber each other's edits. (Thanks for trusting us.) - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 01:00, 18 January 2018 (CET)
 
::::Oh, maybe. Kolano scared me off like that. Now I've felt reluctant doing anything there. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 01:47, 18 January 2018 (CET)
 
:::::Psychology is weird. Maybe someone should write a paper about this. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 01:56, 18 January 2018 (CET)


:How are we supposed to do this exactly? I don't understand the mechanics of what you are trying to accomplish. What level of automation would be involved, and how much work does it take of an editor to fulfill everything? - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 00:26, 1 February 2013 (CET)
::::::Heh... anyway, I have some changes I'd like submit to there. It's mostly about removing template how-to information outside of that page to their template docs, hopefully they don't mind. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 03:08, 18 January 2018 (CET)


====Proposed "Game Page Status" Template Fields ====
=== Game Page Status Template ===
*Developer is accurate
:<i>This conversation has been moved to [[Template talk:Page Status]].</i> - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 20:20, 22 August 2017 (CEST)
*Publisher is accurate
*Release dates are accurate
*Modes are accurate
*Genre is accurate (unclear about this one, I fear it may lead to fights about genre labels, but I'd also like to avoid mislabeled games)
*Series is accurate
*Rating is accurate for revision XXX
*Navigation template is in place if appropriate (default to NA)
*Page includes a full set of sections (Adding in the Gameplay Images sections will be a big part of this)
*Title applied if page title post-fixed (i.e. GC/Wii indicators)(default to NA)
*Description is: accurate, brief, provides info beyond what's found in the infobox.
*Compatibility checked in version XXX (Unclear if we shouldn't just use the testing field for this though).
*Forumlink is in place
*Wikipedia link in functional/accurate: Date of last review
*Date of last forum page review
*Date of last Google issues scan (unclear this shouldn't just be handled with more regular review of the Google issues list, see section below)
*Linkages to patches, texture packs, etc are in place and still valid (We still need to work out how to handle these generally, I think it's typically in an arbitrary section before Problems)
:: The "Patches" section in [[Xenoblade Chronicles]] is something like this. We could adopt this as template (and then add this in [[Project:Wiki Conventions]]) [[User:Jhonn|Jhonn]] ([[User talk:Jhonn|talk]])
...please add other suggestions...

***These details should not change user to user. Perhaps you were confused by FPS. It's not the emulated FPS, but the games hard-coded internal FPS. These details are mainly of interest to developers, but may also let us more easily identify issues shared across multiple titles. I'm not clear if an exact "size" can be easily established though, as such may be somewhat dependent on the specific disc image tools used (i.e. slightly different headers, etc may slightly effect the size).[[User:Kolano|Kolano]] 19:48, 31 July 2011 (CEST)

*Add more infobox options for pages that don't fit the usual molds. For example, [[System Menu]] and [[Broadband Adapter]] do not need compatibility, so they use the platforms template. And that means loosing out on details they could have. [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] 02:53, 24 July 2012 (CEST)

=== Complete list of Dolphin hotkeys ===
=== Complete list of Dolphin hotkeys ===
There is apparently no comprehensive list anywhere of all the hotkeys that work in Dolphin. How do we take screenshots without going to the menu, for example? This wiki would be the perfect place for such a list. The only hotkey I know of is Alt-F5 to enable the Wii Remote. [[User:Flang|Flang]] 08:05, 23 July 2016 (CST)

:: Thank you for pointing me to the hotkeys menu in Dolphin. The way they are layed out in that menu is very confusing for new users like me - Apparently if a key is mapped like (!(LMENU | RMENU) & !(LSHIFT | RSHIFT) & !(LCONTROL | RCONTROL)) & `F1` - that means to press F1. I guess I still think it would be helpful to have a default list of hotkeys available on the wiki, but it's not a big deal. -[[User:Flang|Flang]] 08:53, 24 July 2016 (CST)
