[edit] Welcome!

Hi Parrothead1983, and a warm welcome to Wikipedia! I hope you have enjoyed editing as much as I did so far and decide to stay. Unfamiliar with the features and workings of Wikipedia? Don't fret! Be Bold! Here's some good links for your reference and that'll get you started in no time!

Editing tutorial, learn to have fun with Wikipedia.

Picture tutorial, instructions on uploading images.

How to write a great article, to make it an featured article status.

Manual of Style, how articles should be written.

Most Wikipedians would prefer to just work on articles of their own interest. But if you have some free time to spare, here are some open tasks that you may want to help out :

RC Patrol - Keeping a lookout for vandalism.

Cleanup - Help make unreadable articles readable.

Requests - Wanted on WP, but hasn't been created.

Merge - Combining duplicate articles into one.

Wikiprojects - So many to join, so many to choose from...Take your pick!

[edit] Pokémon Torouze

Do you have a source for your claim that this game is a port of Yoshi's Cookie? Sonic Mew | talk to me 14:29, 26 October 2005 (UTC)

You may find this interesting.

Playing Pokemon Torouze feels a heck of a lot like Yoshi's Cookie, if the cookies were turned into the hundreds of Pokemon critters, and the controls were more touch-screen oriented, and the bin was more vertical in shape, and if it was far more energetic with a huge emphasis on combo settings. In reality, Pokemon Torouze is only similar on the surface to Yoshi's Cookie, but the change in mechanics really make it shine as a new puzzler.

So it looks like it is similar, but it is certainly not a port. Sonic Mew | talk to me 13:01, 30 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] The Pokémon protagonists

I saw you edited Red (Pokémon) and Ash Ketchum to add pictures and references that conflated the two characters. I know it's common in the Pokémon fandom to use Red/Ash to refer to the video game protagonists pretty interchangably, but I've been trying to establish consistent use on Wikipedia, for clarity's sake.

The video game character I've been referring to as "the protagonist of (such and such game)", since the name is changable, the default name varies, and fan usage is so inconsistent. Red is the protagonist of Pokémon Adventures, since that naming is consistent, and Ash or Ash Ketchum are the protagonist of the Pokémon anime, which, again, is consistent.

I've edited Ash Ketchum and Red (Pokémon) to reflect this.

Oh, and one other thing: when you upload a Pokémon image owned by Nintendo, probably your best bet for license info is the {{Pokeimage}} template. Just add {{Pokeimage}} to the description of the image and you're set. - A Man In Black (conspire | past ops) 17:14, 27 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Richard's picture

Are you sure that is Richard from the Legend of Zelda: Link's Awakening?

-selmaelbeyati

Yes, but he isn't really a Zelda character, but he is a Link's Awakening character. Read the details.

Thanks for uploading Image:Lark_pilotwings64.PNG. The image has been identified as not specifying the copyright status of the image, which is required by Wikipedia's policy on images. If you don't indicate the copyright status of the image on the image's description page, using an appropriate copyright tag, it may be deleted some time in the next seven days. If you have uploaded other images, please verify that you have provided copyright information for them as well.

[edit] Image Tagging Image:Fo ca large.jpg

This media may be deleted.

Thanks for uploading Image:Fo ca large.jpg. I notice the 'image' page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you have not created this media yourself then there needs to be an argument why we have the right to use the media on Wikipedia (see copyright tagging below). If you have not created the media yourself then it needs to be specified where it was found, i.e., in most cases link to the website where it was taken from, and the terms of use for content from that page.

If the media also doesn't have a copyright tag then one should be added. If you created/took the picture, audio, or video then the {{GFDL-self}} tag can be used to release it under the GFDL. If you believe the media qualifies as fair use, consider reading fair use, and then use a tag such as {{fairusein|article name}} or one of the other tags listed at Wikipedia:Image copyright tags#Fair_use. See Wikipedia:Image copyright tags for the full list of copyright tags that you can use.

If you have uploaded other media, consider checking that you have specified their source and copyright tagged them, too. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that any unsourced and untagged images will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. ×Meegs 00:49, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Tomato Adventure

(copied here from my talk page since I wasn't sure if you would be watching it)

Why does this article need to be deleted? Is it because of the grammer? Is it because it is because it is too minor? Is it because it doesn't have enough info? Tell me what is the problem with this article?

User:Parrothead1983

Because it's just another video game. It's not genre-defining, it didn't have any cultural influence. I don't think articles on minor videogames are encyclopedic. -- Hirudo 01:36, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

Hey. Just so you know, you don't need to put links to the other language wikis explicitly in the external links section of articles. On this article, for example, I've made the links as they should be, and if you look to the left of the article, the interlanguage links are there. To see how to do it, just look at the ES and JA links I put at the very bottom of the article. --InShaneee 02:40, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

If you'd like to, I'll go ahead and add it to both the List of Japan exclusive computer and video games and Category:Japan exclusive computer and video games. ~ Hibana 22:17, 27 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Densetsu no Stafy

Hello there! I noticed you made the Legend of Stafy page, which I've been working on a lot as well. I have a question for you, since you're obviously fluent in the Japanese language while I am not. Is Stafy a starfish, or is he something else? Sometimes I hear people saying that he's a "sky star." Which is correct?

Thanks! --Liquidcross 13:37, 12 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Obscure titles

Thanks for the kind words. Good job in the creation of the Tomato Adventure article. Most people settle for just updating the more common articles, but its people like you who help to make Wikipedia something unique. Good job!
