[edit] Harry's Legend

Hey - Do you want to see if Harry's Legend is mentioned in any Chinese publications?

The difference between that and the SDK pirate is that Harry's Legend was mentioned in notable publications (I.E. Electronic Gaming Monthly: [1] ) - Also, I tried using Wiktionary and I cannot determine which Chinese readings are used for Harry's Legend) WhisperToMe 16:01, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Super Donkey Kong NES Game

I got up to Level 6 (One of the water worlds) - the beaver boss is impossible - We may need for someone who knows hacking to make the boss able to kill.

Anyway, I can help you with Level 2 (Mushroom), since I was able to get past it. WhisperToMe 20:23, 26 June 2007 (UTC)

Hehe, sorry, I got tired of the game, it's very crude by any commercial standard. --Voidvector 18:30, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Mandarin slang

[edit] 流氓

Hi, I think we need 流氓 at Mandarin slang. I just ran across this term and don't see it in the article. Badagnani 16:26, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Done --Voidvector 18:25, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 咪咪

Hi, can you add 咪咪 (breasts)? (Are these the right hanzi?) I don't think we have this one. There may be a few other missing terms for this as well. Badagnani 17:22, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

Done --Voidvector 18:25, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] 猫咪

I think we need this one too. Badagnani 17:30, 2 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Sri Lankan Civil War

Wikipedia:Requests for mediation/Sri Lankan Civil War

I was holding off further discussion in this mediation until the outcome of the deletion debate on Commons. Given that the image that was the subject of the dispute has now been deleted due to copyright issues, is there any reason to keep this mediation open? If none of the parties express a wish to continue with the process, I will close the mediation in a few days. WjBscribe 01:36, 9 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi, can you check to see if this is accurate? Badagnani 18:10, 17 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Four Great Ancient Civilizations

I reverted your merge of Four Great Ancient Civilizations. Nobody really discussed your proposal. You actually left almost no time (less then 16 hours!) for discussion. Please be patient. If you still like to merge, place a proposal again. Thanks.--Neo-Jay 00:38, 26 July 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Response to the disappearance of Madeleine McCann

Hi, I have removed the MWWS See also because MWWS is already linked from that section in context. That is enough because it is doubtful if MWWS is applicable and this is presently being discussed on the MWWS talk page. TerriersFan 23:28, 9 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Blizzard Entertainment wrong?

I don't understand how I was wrong about Blizzard Entertainment publishing the original Command & Conquer for mac (not the pc version). I got that information from IGN Entertainment as well as this one guy on Brood War USA-2 (because too many damn trivia bots are in Brood War USA-1 to even have a discussion). I believe the person's username was rev_israjor or something like that.

[edit] SC novel merge

I think it's a good idea to merge the novels together. As far as notability of StarCraft subjects go, establishing notability for each individual novel is a massive and probably futile task. I support the idea of merging into a single article, but I don't agree merging into a collective Blizzard novels article. Other than obvious filesize issues, in a collective Blizzard novel article it would become difficult to provide commentary (for instance, Metzen's influence overall on the StarCraft novels) towards any particular series, especially as they are most disconnected. I think it is a good idea to go for a StarCraft novels article, with the other series dealing with their own. It's also easier for editting: I know nothing about the Warcraft or Diablo novels, I'd only work on the StarCraft ones, meaning that I will have to neglect the others. It becomes much easier overall to deal with each series individually than lumping them together. Oh, and having "list of" in the title is misleading, its best not to do that when the contents will not be a list. -- Sabre 15:41, 28 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Template:US Federal Holidays

Hello! I saw you reformated this template. Is there a Wikipedia policy about using default colors? Because I use colors all the time – I think it makes it look more interesting. You could always change it to a different color though. What do you think? Capt. Phœbus (talk) 01:43, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

No, I don't think so. It just that the dark blue caused the view/discuss/edit links hard to see. --Voidvector 09:52, 13 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Yichang bridges

Hello Voidvector. I'm wondering if you could help me sort out the bridges in Yichang, China. There are two suspension bridges near Yichang. Both are listed in the list of longest suspension bridge spans. The shorter one is upstream near the 3 Gorges Dam, and the larger one is downstream from Yichang. You moved the article for Yichang Bridge to Yichang Xiling Bridge. The picture in that article is of the bridge downstream. I've confirmed this by looking at pictures linked to both bridges at Google Earth. However, the Xiling Bridge according to Structurae.de is the bridge upstream near the Dam, which I've also confirmed by matching the pictures. When you moved the article, you mentioned a list in the Chinese version of Wikipedia. Unfortunately, I don't read Chinese, so I can not determine the names of these two bridges. It is certainly possible that Structurea does not have the names correct. If the bridge downstream is the Xiling Bridge, what is the name of the bridge near the dam? If you can clear up the naming problem for these two bridges, I'd very much appreciate it. Thanks. -- ☑ SamuelWantman 07:48, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

From the looks of the chart you put on my talk page, it looks like it was correct before you moved the article, which also agrees with the original references I used. I'm going to move Yichang Xiling back to Yichang. Thanks for the translation. -- ☑ SamuelWantman 11:47, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Good job, but I'm sure 陳強尼 is not Johnny Chan's real Chinese name. Badagnani (talk) 04:16, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

強尼 seems very much like a translation of Johnny, but the web is already populated with that translation. He's official website doesn't say anything other than showing an image of the character 陳. --Voidvector (talk) 04:25, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Sure, 陳強尼 is used in Chinese publications, but it would still be good to get his actual Chinese name. Badagnani (talk) 04:30, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

I see no conceivable way of finding this information other than to contact him. Feel free to email his agent, I am not gonna put that much effort into it. --Voidvector (talk) 04:41, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Template:United Kingdom cities

Hello there. It would mean a lot to me if you could help make an argument on the talk of the city template of the United Kingdom. I know that you are interested in the way these templates work and are interested in keeping them (to some extent) standard. Please make an argument on Template talk:United Kingdom cities#Consensus if you are intended on keeping some standards here. Please make a statement here and thank you very much. — NuclearVacuum 18:12, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
