Plasma Storm Darkness

I see you've moved onto Darkness instead of Fighting. Don't forget to add the new BW-P Promotional information for Scraggy when you edit the page. We missed Chimchar, but oh well. ^Maverick_Nate 20:50, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

I wasn't keeping track of how fast you're doing the Psychic ones, so I thought I'd leave you a bit of a buffer in case we overlap. ~~nuva-kal 21:00, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

Holos

The official term is "Tinsel Holofoil", not "Pinstripe Holofoil". ^Maverick_Nate 01:55, 9 May 2013 (UTC)

Well, can you do what I asked Pokemaster97 here? - unsigned comment from Pnjfandubs (talk • contribs)

Pokémon Tretta and descriptions

Hey nuva-kal, I'd like your opinion on the matter of referencing Pokédex entries on the Origin section like what the TCG does. I've noticed that some are not the same, so the format would be that the Pokémon description comes from so-and-so, though slightly reworded. ^ht14 03:28, 31 October 2013 (UTC)

Couldn't that just be because many of the tretta pucks were created during the time when we only had Umeko's translations of dex entries, and not the quoted english ones from the games? That seems like something that would be forgotten to repair after the games had come out. I know Freeze Bolt/Cold Flare is still having issues with dex entries, for most likely the same sort of reason. ^Maverick_Nate 03:37, 31 October 2013 (UTC)

Oh, I forgot to mention and did not clarify earlier… would it be okay to add Pokédex entry references on the Origin section on the Tretta articles? Thanks. ^ht14 03:40, 31 October 2013 (UTC)

A lot of the descriptions are derived from more than one Pokédex entry. Some of the earlier Tretta have an entry part from Black and part from White, with some of the later ones taking entries from Gold/Silver/Crystal, etc., or featuring original additions to them. I'd be tempted to leave them as they are. ~~nuva-kal 14:40, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

Master's Key

I've discovered a dispute with the research you've done with Master's Key on The UPCCC. According to the forum posts over there, there are more than we initially thought. Would you be able to look into this a little bit more? I do not know how extensive your initial research was, so I'm hoping we can uncover why there's a discrepancy. ^Maverick_Nate 20:19, 9 December 2013 (UTC)

Hi Nate. I'm guessing the thread is for members only, as I can't view it. I can't pinpoint the exact article I derived the numbers from, but there are various pages from 4gamer and dengenki online that detail the breakdowns of the winners. I initially thought they were only given to the TCG top-ranking players until I saw two sets of trophy cases: one for the TCG (red), and one for the video games (blue). There is a mention that 8 players from the TCG in each division would go on to represent Japan in the World Championships - would this bring it more in line with the other source? As there was never much coverage for these (same with Wonder Platinum as well), these numbers were only based on the breakdowns I have seen. ~~nuva-kal 11:14, 19 December 2013 (UTC)

Modified

To be honest, I only really wanted the modified section to be on these pages. I don't really find the modified silver background to appropriate on any of the other pages using {{cardlist/header}}. (I never really intended for that series of table templates to be used anywhere else. I'm pretty sure the "char=Yes" option was added just to make it work elsewhere, when I kind of wanted to create something different.) With it being used on pages currently, like Brock, Misty, Team Rocket, etc, I do believe adding in the modified pushed those rather large pages extremely close to their template limits, and they might very well soon break. Werdnae has been revamping templates as much as he can in order to lessen the problems, and actually cautioned me about how the modified addition might become a problem if it is used too much. It might be time that we end up creating a new set of table templates more appropriate for use on character/item/place pages' "In the TCG" sections. ^Maverick_Nate 18:35, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

The "char=Yes" was added to save creating another template that would more or less do the same as the cardlist one. While I do like the template as a concise visual summary, it does become a bit jarring with many reprints, like on the Cheren article. What did you have in mind for an initial solution? ~~nuva-kal 19:16, 27 December 2013 (UTC)

I personally don't really think things like rarity and card no. are completely important when telling about the subject's role within the card game. I made an edit to Pal Pad that I think is more appropriate to what the section should be doing. It discusses the subject's role, while also allows the reader to head to the actual article to learn more information specific to the printed card. The only issue I see with this might be specific people with many Pokémon or cards in the TCG (like Brock, Misty, Professor Oak), but as a solution, maybe linking to the person category (Category:Brock (TCG)) would be the solution. Those characters could also probably use a table with minimal information of what Pokémon/cards exist (honestly just cardname, with link, and type would suffice in my mind), but most won't really need it. ^Maverick_Nate 20:04, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Archiving

"Instead of deleting any and all information on talk pages, you should archive your talk page by moving it to a new location. By simply copying and pasting the text, or by moving small sections at a time, it breaks the time line of the edit history." - Kogoro - Talk to me - 14:10, 28 December 2013 (UTC)

Umm....

Hi, I'm having trouble adding things to my userpage. I'm not allowed despite that I've made some edits to other articles and thus fit the criteria. Can you tell me if I'm missing anything?. Yoonique (talk) 02:34, 12 February 2014 (UTC)Yoonique
