Over on [[smw:Game Boy Color#BIOS colors|MarioWiki's Game Boy Color page]], I took screenshots of the color palletes used for non-color games. Would it be OK to [[a:Special:Upload|upload to Bulbapedia Archives]] and apply them to the [[Game Boy Color#Color palettes used for original Game Boy games|Bulbapedia's version]]? Or would its current state be sufficient? --[[User:Wildgoosespeeder|Wildgoosespeeder]] ([[User talk:Wildgoosespeeder|talk]]) 06:20, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

Ugh, the Shogagukan Asia release of volume 52 is out, and Lack-Two and Whi-Two had their names changed. Great, now I have to change the pages and the links, which requires effort. Problem is, what do we name the articles? Back when the arc started, we didn't label them with (Adventures) like the other Dex holders because Rakustu/Lack-Two and Faitsu/Whi-Two aren't names (as far as I know), and thus the chances of other characters popping up with those names are near zero. But now their English names are Blake and Whitley, which are actual names. There are no pages with those names ('cept for [[Blake Hall]], but who remembers him?), but I wonder if we should just link them as Blake and Whitley or Blake (Adventures) and Whitley (Adventures). Also, since Shogakukan Asia is usually the same as the VIZ releases (as far as I know), that would mean it's safe to assume we won't have to change the pages again next month when it's released in the US, or should we play it safe?

:Do you happen to know if the copyright notice in the volume mentions VIZ Media? If it doesn't then it's a different translation. I have SA volume 43 which uses the same names but it's a different translation. Whereas in the R/S omnibus volumes it mentions in the copyright notice that it's the VIZ translation. So it's likely to be the same names regardless but if VIZ isn't mentioned in the copyright notice then I would wait since it's only a week or so until the VIZ volume comes in January and it would be super annoying to move all the pages then move it again just in case it's different. Either way if those are the names, or similar, I would name it as (Adventures).

Keldemaru

Is the page User:Rahl/Keldemaru ready to be mainspaced?--Rahl (talk) 22:08, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

Swords of Justice (Adventures)

Is it alright if the Swords of Justice have an Adventures page?Animaltamer704:51, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Yeah that should be okay. --ZestyCactus 21:05, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

3DS Screenshots

Hello, are you able to approve me for uploading 3DS screenshots? I see there are some moves that either don't have a screenshot or have one that needs to be replaced. So far I've contributed on Bulbapedia under this login, and previously under the login User:Meowth346. Here's a sample screenshot, though I can screenshot something specific upon request. --ChristopherFritz (talk) 02:57, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Nah man, you've got my permission. You should be good to go to upload your 3DS screenshots on the Archives. --ZestyCactus 06:19, 5 December 2016 (UTC)

Veevee and Dake-chan

Are the pages User:Rahl/Veevee and User:Rahl/Dake-chan ready to be mainspaced?--Rahl (talk) 23:54, 6 December 2016 (UTC)

Veevee has not done enough to deserve an article. Dake-chan is fine, I guess. Ataro (talk) 01:24, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

Croagunk and Genesect

Are the pages User:Rahl/Looker's Croagunk or User:Rahl/Lack-Two's Genesect ready to be mainspaced?--Rahl (talk) 22:53, 9 December 2016 (UTC)

Neither of these two are notable enough to need articles. Genesect's only major role was in its battle against Lack-Two, and it hasn't been seen since. Its other appearances were glorified cameos. And Croagunk hasn't done nearly enough to deserve an article. It appears a lot, but it's not treated as much more than an extension of its Trainer. If Genesect is added to Lack-Two's team, I'd consider it, but Croagunk has to actually do something other than be the frog that wears a hat to be of note. Ataro (talk) 02:30, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
While I appreciate your feedback on this I would like to get Zesty's opinion, at least on Croagunk. That is why I asked her after all.--Rahl (talk) 14:54, 10 December 2016 (UTC)
The article looks nice and all, and I appreciate that Croagunk is a cross-canon character, although I don't think it really had a significant enough role in any of its stories to justify its own page (for now, anyway). --ZestyCactus 04:16, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

Game Boy Color

Over on MarioWiki's Game Boy Color page, I took screenshots of the color palletes used for non-color games. Would it be OK to upload to Bulbapedia Archives and apply them to the Bulbapedia's version? Or would its current state be sufficient? --Wildgoosespeeder (talk) 06:20, 17 December 2016 (UTC)

Oh, actually, I think the screenshots would add a lot to the article. Feel free to add them. --ZestyCactus 04:10, 18 December 2016 (UTC)

Names.

Ugh, the Shogagukan Asia release of volume 52 is out, and Lack-Two and Whi-Two had their names changed. Great, now I have to change the pages and the links, which requires effort. Problem is, what do we name the articles? Back when the arc started, we didn't label them with (Adventures) like the other Dex holders because Rakustu/Lack-Two and Faitsu/Whi-Two aren't names (as far as I know), and thus the chances of other characters popping up with those names are near zero. But now their English names are Blake and Whitley, which are actual names. There are no pages with those names ('cept for Blake Hall, but who remembers him?), but I wonder if we should just link them as Blake and Whitley or Blake (Adventures) and Whitley (Adventures). Also, since Shogakukan Asia is usually the same as the VIZ releases (as far as I know), that would mean it's safe to assume we won't have to change the pages again next month when it's released in the US, or should we play it safe? Ataro (talk) 00:28, 21 December 2016 (UTC)

Do you happen to know if the copyright notice in the volume mentions VIZ Media? If it doesn't then it's a different translation. I have SA volume 43 which uses the same names but it's a different translation. Whereas in the R/S omnibus volumes it mentions in the copyright notice that it's the VIZ translation. So it's likely to be the same names regardless but if VIZ isn't mentioned in the copyright notice then I would wait since it's only a week or so until the VIZ volume comes in January and it would be super annoying to move all the pages then move it again just in case it's different. Either way if those are the names, or similar, I would name it as (Adventures). --ZestyCactus 01:25, 21 December 2016 (UTC)
Thanks for the tip, I'll keep myself on guard and confirm when I receive it eight days from now and then I will report it when I can. Best to leave the pages along for now. -Tyler53841 (talk) 18:25, 26 December 2016 (UTC)

Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Vol. 3

The cover image for VIZ's third volume has been revealed and is ready at anytime and hope you had a happy holidays. -Tyler53841 (talk) 18:25, 26 December 2016 (UTC)
