I assume that the text that goes with the featured pic will be written by whoever updates it? Or is the text taken from somewhere?

Hey

Shouldn't you guys have more articles here??? -Krauser Pk18

Not a nice thing to say, considering you haven't contributed anything. MasterConjurer 19:59, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
Shouldn't you fuck off? Yes, I'm seriously that tired I can't be bothered to come up with anything more "intellectual".  ILHI (W/B) 14:15, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
It's fine. I figure if I'm offended, our top editor has every reason to be. MasterConjurer 14:38, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
I admit you made me chuckle and nod, ILHI. Faethinverba volant 14:46, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Links and Affiliates

Hey, cool that you have added the "Final Fantasy Almanach" to your Links and Affiliates List. --Dr. Crisp 20:00, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

I just hope nobody reverts it. I kinda did it without any sort of warning. MasterConjurer 20:26, 5 May 2009 (UTC)
That's great! I doubt they don't revert it...after all, we should return the favour to them. Chocolancer 22:33, 5 May 2009 (UTC)

Shouldn't we group Revenant Wings and Dive II with the other Ivalice games, instead of them being in their own section?

Shouldn't that get a little link on the sidebar too? Featured Article does.

But if it's just an image, then why bother?

TALK - I Am Vengeance. I Am the Knight. I Am Batman! :
What?

We don't link to the Featured Article in the Sidebar, we link to Final Fantasy Wiki: Featured Articles. I say there should be a link to Final Fantasy Wiki: Featured Images. Maybe I didn't make myself clear.

TALK - That's right, I won. Fear me.
Oh, that makes a lot more sense. Now that I know what you're talking about, I suppose I agree.

Good idea Blue. Dunno why I didn't think of that myself ._.

Bonga Bugle, or Shinra News?

Meta-Z
TALK - That's right, I won. Fear me.
I know that the "Current Events" thing is called "Shinra News" now, but the thing on the sidebar still says "Bonga Bugle". What's up with that?!

We forgot to make the change for the Monaco skin. Sowwy.

Press ctrl+f5. You should be able to read "Shinra News" now.

TALK - That's right, I won. Fear me.
Nope, it still says "Bonga Bugle". I got no clue WTF's wrong with it.

What browser and what skin are you using?
Master Conjurer : 17:52, 20 May 2009 (UTC)
I'm using Monaco Smoke (the default) and it says Bonga Bugle to me. I bypassed my cache this morning, so it can't be my browser.

OK, it says Shinra News now.

Shouldn't the Kingdom Hearts Wiki be on that list and are we directing FFXI links to the FFXIclopedia?

TALK - That's right, I won. Fear me.
I'm not certain myself, but I think that the KHWiki has us as a related community, so it would only be fair to acknowledge them in kind.

"The dimension of time has been shattered, we cannot love or think except in fragments of time"

The KH wiki is listed under the Wikia Gaming logo. Unless you mean give them a box of their own? For FFXI, we're covering it completely, but in less detail than FFXIclopedia.

Yeah, that's what I meant.

New background

Rydia's long lost brother - Love is a cruel mistress, but one we must all answer to.

My sister and cheese, however, are not. So worship them!!!
TALK - maybe it's 18:25, 8 June 2009 (UTC), maybe it's not...

I applaud whoever designed the new background. It is a valuable addition to this already fantastic wiki. Well Done

TALK - {{{time}}}
I agree. The background gives a nice look to the Site.

The floating crytals image and its adding to the Monobook skin was Bluer's work. Most of the css required to make the site look like this was Master Conjurer's work. A wee bit of code and its actual saving onto the MediaWiki:monaco.css page was thine truly's work. I'm glad you guys like it :)
Master Conjurer : 20:32, 8 June 2009 (UTC)
Speaking of the CSS, I copied it into my custom and made some small improvements to the shade of yellow and the legibility of the links up top. Could you copy User:Master Conjurer/monaco.css into MediaWiki:Monaco.css?

New Wiki

I have request. Can you place link to my new polish Final Fantasy Wiki on the main page? Here's the URL:

http://pl.finalnafantazja.wikia.com/wiki/.

I will appreciate it. Final_Cannon 04:26, 18 June 2009 (UTC)

Why did you start a brand-new Polish FFWiki? One already existed. Faethinte audio 16:13, 18 June 2009 (UTC)
Yeah, but that writes articles only about Final Fantasy VIII. I'm created Wiki about whole series.
No, that wiki currently only has FFVIII pages (probably, haven't seen)  ILHI (W/B) 14:46, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
Well I've seen it and it indeed does only have VIII articles, but hey, there was a time when this very same Wiki had only VI pages and there was much rejoice. I should probably ask Diablo and 8bit about adding this new Polish FFWiki to our affiliates. Faethinte audio 14:59, 19 June 2009 (UTC)
You could have adopted the other one. It already has over 100 stubs; that's less work, if you ask me. Plus, the new one only has Final Fantasy X info, so I see little difference. Eric Ryan Jones 00:30, 13 July 2009 (UTC)

10,500

--
Eric Ryan Jones, Master Epopt — 00:30, 13 July 2009 (UTC)
OK, so I understand that another 500 articles is a big deal. Question is, is it so big a deal after 10,000? The point I drill at is that 10,000 is a big, round number that says, "Hey, look! I'm an accomplishment!" 10,500, on the other hand, gets a reaction to the effect of, "Huh, wonder when they'll get to 11,000." I know that we will get there, but why not bask in the 10,000 until we get to another nice, big, round number?

Page problem

Final_Cannon - I hate waiting. I am no waiter.
TALK - 07;57, 26 July 2009 (UTC)
Hey. I experienced strange problem. When I'm, log out, on each page, where is "history" link at the bottom, there is an array of random buttons. Did you seet it too, or it is problem with my browser?

Really?

On the "Did you know" template, it states "...Edea Kramer was originally designed for and planned to appear in Final Fantasy VII?". This I did not know, but is it true? After looking through several related pages, I found no mention of this fact. Does the Ultimania back it up or something? Image:WarxePBIcon.pngWarxePB 02:00, 17 August 2009 (UTC)

Pandemonium Warden

TALK - 20:29, September 12, 2009 (UTC)
Just a little thing. In the 'Did You Know' box, it says that the Pandemonium Warden remains undefeated, but it's article states that it's been defeated twice. I think this is in need of an update.

...........it has. Drake Clawfang 20:40, September 12, 2009 (UTC)
