| ==Attempted Import==
| |
| Is this an attempted import from the Wikibooks Final Fantasy VI page? [http://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/FF6] I've worked on that one and it's largely complete, let me know if there's anything I can do to help.--[[User:BigCow|BigCow]] 10:37, 31 May 2006 (PDT)

| ==Items List Setup==
| |
| I had seen that you had worked on the FF6 WikiBook. There is a lot of stuff I'm working on to improve upon that. I just haven't updated the wiki. It would be so much easier if I could grep on this windows machine. I want to categorize each weapon, armor et al by what it is(weapon, armor, helmet, item, accessory) and by who can equip it, by adding a category tag, but the only way I can do that is to make a seperate page or template for each item. I really don't want to have to do that. I'm adding a lot more item info as well(where to get it from, what you get for betting it at the colliseum, etc). I'm also going to change the walkthrough chapter setup.

| |
| Do you know if there is a better way to categorize these items? Thanks a bunch.--[[User:Filthy swine|Filthy swine]] 22:49, 4 June 2006 (PDT)

| ===Tables?===
| |
| I think what we'd want to do for the items stuff eventually is to set up a table, I just checked out the formatting rules on Wikipedia:
| |
|
| |
| http://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/Help:Table
| |
|
| |
| Example:
| |
|
| |
| {| border="1"
| |
| |+ The table's caption
| |
| ! Column heading 1 !! Column heading 2 !! Column heading 3
| |
| |-
| |
| ! Row heading 1
| |
| | Cell 2 || Cell 3
| |
| |-
| |
| ! Row heading A
| |
| |Cell B
| |
| |Cell C
| |
| |}
| |
|
| |
| Basically, we'd set up all the fields and stuff we needed and throw the text in as appropriate. The descriptions I have for all the items in the wikibook could be a starting place for a "description" field or something similar, and you might have something for immunities and stuff like that in rare cases... you could have a table for each type of equipment/item to make things easier as well.
| |
|
| |
| For the Super Mario RPG wiki guide, I may start one eventually. What I've done before is just play through the game exhaustively and write up the guide as I go along. It would be fun to have a few side projects describing how to get all the incidental frog coins, flower tabs/jars/boxes in the game, and other stuff like a listing of minigames and their rewards.--[[User:BigCow|BigCow]] 19:28, 5 June 2006 (PDT)

| ===Seperate Pages For Items===
| |
| I want to avoid having a table for all items(it would become quite expansive), but I also want to avoid having redundancies with having specialized lists like a morph or colliseum list. I like the idea of having seperate pages for the advantages that categorization could have for each individual item.--[[User:Filthy swine|Filthy swine]] 19:56, 5 June 2006 (PDT)
| |
| :Are you thinking about a seperate page for each type of item or a seperate page for each individual item themselves? Because I'm not sure wikipedia categories like: Category:FinalFantasyVIArmor would really help much, most people would probably prefer a summary view with some more detailed information.
| |
| : This type of Coliseum chart would be an example of one thing that would be easy to convert into a table, incidentally: http://www.rpgamer.com/games/ff/ff6/text/info/ff6colo.txt--[[User:BigCow|BigCow]] 10:18, 6 June 2006 (PDT)

| I've gone through and filled in most of the chapters for the walkthrough and the sidequests, all with my own original content, from playing through the game and making notes as I went through for the most part. There are already a large number of FAQs and walkthroughs available at sites like GameFAQs.com and this game is pretty exhaustively explored by now, here's what I think this guide should be able to do: | | I've gone through and filled in most of the chapters for the walkthrough and the sidequests, all with my own original content, from playing through the game and making notes as I went through for the most part.

| == Orphaned page ==
| |
|
| |
| [[Final Fantasy VI/Items/Atma Weapon]] is orphaned, and should be listed in the appropriate page (or merged). --[[User:DrBob|DrBob]] ([[User_talk:DrBob|Talk]]) 07:01, 24 February 2007 (CST)

| == Merge from FFVI Adv. ==
| |
|
| |
| Anyone have any objections to merging the tiny amount of material from [[Final Fantasy VI Advance]] here? All there is really to do is add an article or section on the new controls and the small number of changes made to the Translation & graphics. If there is nothing stopping this, I'll do the honors in a few days.
| |
| :Hold off on it. Proper merges can only be done by sysops, so one of them will take care of it (as the edit histories must be merged, which requires deletion and undeletion). Also, try to remember to sign your comments on talk pages with <nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>. Also, they should have separate guides even if they are relatively the same game, and that's what I'm guessing. --{{User:Ryan Schmidt/sig}} 15:00, 10 August 2007 (CDT)
| |
| ::Right now the FFVIA guide only has a controls page, which one of us will take care of. If the list of changes is fairly short, simply put the list on the main [[Final Fantasy VI Advance]] page. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 21:45, 11 August 2007 (CDT)

| == Item names? ==
| |
|
| |
| Is there a reason that several times in this walkthrough items have different names to that which appear in the game? (eg, Potions called Tonics, Phoenix Down called Fenix). Is that what they were called in the original SNES version? I'm playing the new GBA version, and it's disconcerting when things don't match up. --[[User:LeftHandedGuitarist|LeftHandedGuitarist]] 14:48, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
| |
| :The SNES version uses Tonics ''and'' Potions. Tonics heal 50HP while Potions heal 250 HP. Also, in the SNES version it's spelled Fenix Down. Yeah, weird. --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 20:10, 22 August 2007 (CDT)
| |
|
| |
| ::Do you think it's worth changing and keeping names consistant throughout all the Final Fantasy games? Especially since the older ones have all been updated in some form now. --[[User:LeftHandedGuitarist|LeftHandedGuitarist]] 07:26, 23 August 2007 (CDT)
| |
|
| |
| :::Why would we change the names if they are correct? If the GBA version has other names, we can easily append such usages to the item list and guide (or we can do a full re-write of the guide for the GBA version, like how the [[Twilight Princess]] guide varies from GC and Wii). Yeah it will be a pain, but it won't be much. --{{User:Notmyhandle/Sig}} 11:15, 23 August 2007 (CDT)
