::I think it's as simple as one page's call to Infobox transcluding another page's call to Infobox (remember that Infobox VG is used on every single game page), or otherwise just having a template that calls itself in any way with or without transclusion, MediaWiki hates loops like that because it's designed to not be Turing complete. I didn't look too deeply but I don't think there's any other ways to detect the existence of a page besides these two methods. Maybe ifexist can be tweaked to not create redlinks on the server side, since it seems pretty useless to do that, but I don't know anything about that. - [[User:Xerxes|Xerxes]] ([[User talk:Xerxes|talk]]) 19:47, 24 November 2019 (CET) | ::I think it's as simple as one page's call to Infobox transcluding another page's call to Infobox (remember that Infobox VG is used on every single game page), or otherwise just having a template that calls itself in any way with or without transclusion, MediaWiki hates loops like that because it's designed to not be Turing complete.

== Debugging Symbols == | |||
Are you sure Nerf N-Strike Elite has symbols in nerf.elf? It doesn't seem to be a regular ELF file. Interestingly, the other two games in the Nerf series do seem to have debug symbols in their ELF files. [[User:Flacs|Flacs]] ([[User talk:Flacs|talk]]) 03:52, 11 January 2020 (CET) | |||
:Yep, it does seem to have symbols in nerf.elf (when compared to main.dol). I was able to import it into ghidra and get symbols, which didn't happen with main.dol (which I think has the same code in it otherwise), and running <code>strings nerf.elf | less</code> and going to the end shows very symbol-looking things like <code style="word-break: break-all">insert__Q23std151__vec_deleter<Q210Metrowerks42range_map_entry<w,Q33std10ctype_base4mask>,Q23std69allocator<Q210Metrowerks42range_map_entry<w,Q33std10ctype_base4mask>>>FPQ210Metrowerks42range_map_entry<w,Q33std10ctype_base4mask>RCQ210Metrowerks42range_map_entry<w,Q33std10ctype_base4mask>Q210Metrowerks11int2type<3></code> (and more typical SDK functions). Both main.dol and nerf.elf have "ELFPATCH/WII v1.0 by Marc Bannister (based on Morton's ELF Compressor)" and "Copyright 2007 Electronic Arts Europe" near the start. Note that I have a US copy of the game (RL6E69, SHA-1 e5f38d127850eb3d69daca411102d1dc2ddd9370). --[[User:Pokechu22|Pokechu22]] ([[User talk:Pokechu22|talk]]) 20:15, 11 January 2020 (CET) | |||
