There's some overlap between the Arcade genre and the Arcade VC titles. It's an issue Kolano wants to fix (see General Discussion). In the mean time, be careful not to assign the Arcade Global problems (which is ONLY for Arcade VC Titles) to wiiware, wii, or other games. - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 12:15, 7 September 2013 (CEST)
== Dolphin Manual ==
So uh, why are you working on the Dolphin Manual? You realize it's extremely out of date and one of the creators (me) wants to kill it, right? Having images just makes that harder, without fixing the tremendous problems that make it necessary to exterminate. - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 01:57, 7 August 2014 (CEST)
== Recommended Accessories Edits Removal ==
You do great work here on the wiki, so I wanted to personally tell you the precise reasoning for reverting your edits to the [[Recommended Accessories]] page. First of all, it's an official page that is on the main site, and is referenced in many places. It's important that everything on it is vetted to be accurately the thing that it says it is and something that is directly related to dolphin. For example, it has gamecube controllers because this is a gamecube emulator and using gamecube controllers and adapters brings dolphin closer to accurate emulation. So no generic controllers should be on the guide, only things that specifically help with getting closer to accurate emulation. Another is that the amazon account, while providing a (small) sum to help developers get accessories, but also stamps it with authenticity. Anything from that account you know came from top developers giving it clearance to be recommended by it. Very very few people have the keys to it. ...Which is actually an issue since we need to add more too it and it's hard to! Anyway, I'm really sorry for removing all of your hard work, and I hope there aren't any hard feelings. I'm sorry I wasn't able to catch it sooner, but with all of the articles and citra work I'm doing lately, I'm not able to come here as often as I used to. :( - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 09:26, 15 May 2015 (CEST)
:No apologies needed. It's not my thing. I only just frown upon no matter what people did to me. But I'd be appreciated when you're improving that page using my old edits, I guess. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 11:41, 15 May 2015 (CEST)

Your edits seem to have broken the Infobox VG template. I'm likely to revert them back shortly.

::::: Yes, sorry, had wanted to test it out in a few spots before moving on to that. Syntax is described [http://help.gamepedia.com/DPL:Manual here]. By default it spits out long flat lists, so you may need to play with it a bit to get something formatted like categories. One other oddity I ran into was that when using the "uses" clause it seemed to trace through certain redirects, listing {{tl|disambig}} pages as well as pages linked by them. I was able to manually filter out the undesired pages, but it make things trickier than they should have been. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 03:47, 25 November 2015 (CET)

== [[Sonic Mega Collection]] Edit ==
I thought that the problems section of each article was for reporting any inaccuracies that Dolphin has when comparing it to the real hardware? I also thought that enhancement sections are for things beyond what a real GameCube or Wii can do. As far as my knowledge goes, the IPL fonts that Dolphin possesses are not accurate and is an issue with certain games ({{issue|8362|fixed}}). --[[User:Wildgoosespeeder|Wildgoosespeeder]] ([[User talk:Wildgoosespeeder|talk]]) 20:56, 2 November 2015 (CET)
I think your correct Wildgoosespeeder, I've restored your writeup to the problems section. Font differences is a significant, but often overlooked, problem in a lot of games. We really need to get on putting together a proper article on extracting GC ROM images, and fonts from those images here.

: '''''"Font differences is a significant, but often overlooked, problem in a lot of games"''''': I still don't get why a text that uses a font alternative (of the same family), which doesn't cause any issues or glitched text at all in a particular game should be listed as a problem using another game which does have visible problems with that alternative font as excuse to consider that an "overlooked" problem, it's like saying that websites that define a generic font (e.g. Sans Serif) instead of a specific font family for a particular text block all have problems too just because they look different on Mac, Ubuntu or Windows since every OS/Browser may use a different font family as default for Sans Serif. Anyway, we aren't making any progress about that particular edit, no arguments provided were good enough to change my point of view but considering everyone who expressed their thoughts I'm the minority, I'll just stop here and leave the font edit as a <s>(non existant)</s> problem like the majority wants. - [[User:Jhonn|Jhonn]] ([[User talk:Jhonn|talk]])

== Template Implementation ==
Please stop any and all template implementations immediately. The issue with wildgoosespeeder is too nuts right now, and nothing whatsoever should be changed or implemented until we can weigh in on them. - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 06:35, 10 November 2015 (CET)
:Err... okay, fine. Leave them as-is for now, OK? They're not broken after all. [[User:Lucario|Lucario]] ([[User talk:Lucario|talk]]) 06:48, 10 November 2015 (CET)
::Sorry for the nuts bit MaJoR. I didn't realize how invested I would get in attempting to fix the Wiki's current maintenance issues and how that investment could cause a chain of events. I've pretty much calmed down now until I can get some feedback on the concept. Any way to get in direct contact with Kolano or you? --[[User:Wildgoosespeeder|Wildgoosespeeder]] ([[User talk:Wildgoosespeeder|talk]]) 07:01, 10 November 2015 (CET)
:::Kolano and I are both on the IRC and the forums, and of course talk pages. - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 07:45, 10 November 2015 (CET)
::Thanks Lucario. And yea, I intend to leave the edits as is, as you said they are not causing any harm. Just with all of this chaos I'm worried about edits slipping through unreviewed... - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 07:45, 10 November 2015 (CET)
:::If it makes you feel any better, I can self-regulate so I don't end up like Brandonorf9999 did.

::Thanks for holding up on this Lucario. We're a bit sensitive to large scale edits taking place atm. It would have also helped a bit if some explanation was provided /w the template edit. So from what I see, this is intended to remove pages from the Active Problems list when the related problem has been resolved but not yet removed from a page (per our one rev back preservation policy). Please go ahead with the rest of the revisions related to this if you can (I presume you were cross-referencing [[:Category:Pages with active problems]] against [[:Category:Pages with fixed problems]], which reminds me that we still need to work on getting the multi-category category plug-in established). [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 07:58, 10 November 2015 (CET)
:::I didn't know [[:Category:Pages with fixed problems]] existed, so yeah, I wasn't cross-referencing them. I just check for slashed out problems in each game page that's currently in that "page with active problem" category. Hopefully this isn't a performance tax for Dolphin wiki. Also you may see that I wasn't involved in discussion or do some write up. That's something I'm slow at! I'm glad my template edit/idea look alright without consensus though.

:::Kolano can you clarify this please? Are you asking him to resume editing pages? I was wanting to hold off until the larger issue is resolved and things have calmed down... - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 08:24, 10 November 2015 (CET)
:::: This change is unrelated to any of the banners / rating problems / infobox stuff, it simply cleans up the [[:Category:Pages with active problems]] list, which currently list numerous non-active problems due to us keeping resolved problems around for a while. I don't see any reason to hold up the clean-up on this. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 21:16, 10 November 2015 (CET)
== ToDo Template ==
Remember that we need to discuss new templates before we start deploying them everywhere. Gadzooks, we just went over this a few days ago. [[User:Kolano|Kolano]] ([[User talk:Kolano|talk]]) 14:55, 14 November 2015 (CET)
: Again, '''please''' use sandboxes when showcasing new templates. Hadn't time to go through your edits yet but expect {{tl|Todo}} changes being mass reverted soon... - [[User:Jhonn|Jhonn]] ([[User talk:Jhonn|talk]])
