2 Things

 * 1) Might want to think about another archive. This is starting to get long.
 * 2) Color for the infoboxes. /shrug think they are stable enough to handle it? I dunno they are all grey and it seems kinda boring >.>. Like Green for Konoha, Beige for Suna, Purple for Oto, ect, ect.--TheUltimate3 (talk) 17:40, February 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * Well I would say they people like him would have the color of their most recent affiliation. For example, Orochimaru would be purple, for Sound, while Sasuke would be...well...I think he would be gray for straight missing-nin...All members of Akatsuki would have Red...ect...ect...--TheUltimate3 (talk) 01:56, February 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * I think it would be more logical to use their main affiliation; the village of which they have the symbol in their databook profile. Otogakure for Orochimaru, Konohagakure for Madara and Sasuke, Kirigakure for Suigetsu, etcetera. --ShounenSuki (talk 13:46, February 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * That make sense...But for some reason seeing Sasuke's affiliation be green for Konoha just seems...stupid. For some reason I have less of an issue with Madara's (though I still would like some sort of red or red/black for Akatsuki) being green...--TheUltimate3 (talk) 14:07, February 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Affiliation is really that village that a character is most put into connection with. Sasuke is still thought off as a Konoha-nin, just like Madara is. I wouldn't find it odd at all to see him with a Konoha infobox. --ShounenSuki (talk 18:24, February 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * @Simant Understood. Don't worry about it if it's a problem. I'll figure something out once everything is stable and what not.
 * @ShounenSuki: It's more or less my strong anti-Sasuke sentiment. The fact that I can see the series true villain with the Konoha symbol, but not Sasuke is really because I see him as an asshat. >.>--TheUltimate3 (talk) 18:35, February 18, 2010 (UTC)

Jawb
I just realized it's only been a week since you were called upon to help with constructing an infobox. I promise this sort of oversight will not happen again.

One of the more glaring absences for this wiki, I feel, is an infobox for video games. I believe I have something functional as far as the infobox is concerned (though it occurs to me I forgot about a series parameter). It's a way of inputting playable characters that eludes me. Could you construct some sort of semantic means of listing what games a character is playable in? I think it would be more convenient than listing things as a bullet point in the trivia and provides a convenient solution for what is abuse of the  parameter. Maybe even forms that they are playable in or whether or not the character is only indirectly "playable" (as in support-only). These last two are optional if they are too complicated.

Anyway, when you have time. ~SnapperTo 21:08, October 2, 2010 (UTC)


 * I was actually thinking of putting under an Other media header and being done with it as far as display is concerned; the infobox has enough lists. A separate, non-infobox template (a la  ) was similarly as complex as I saw semantic-ing it being. The output would be the same bulleted list that's already in use in the various video games articles, but it would slap everything with a Playable:: too.
 * Completely removing the  would be counterproductive since there are characters that appear in no other media but that are not playable either. This idea is mainly to reinforce that, like movie and OVA, these debut parameters are only for character exclusive to that particular media (which, conceivably, could all be combined into the same parameter).
 * Depending on how ludicrous the suggestions, it's something to consider when you find yourself with free time. ~SnapperTo 03:12, October 3, 2010 (UTC)


 * All of the systems can be see at List of video games. Given the number of options, a checkbox might not be the best route. Also, the form doesn't have a place for release dates. On series, Clash of Ninja and Ninja Taisen are fundamentally the same. ~SnapperTo 03:00, October 4, 2010 (UTC)


 * Does the playable character list need to be in the infobox? Can't it be like where it's under its own heading? ~SnapperTo 02:10, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

Browsing by loyalty is only returning characters with more than one loyalty. ~SnapperTo 05:17, October 17, 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure what you mean by +#. ~SnapperTo 17:45, October 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * You mean to assist with navigation? If so, might it be simpler to just look for the game with the most recent, prior release? Or, for those games that do not have enough installments to be a "series", just have a  parameter? If neither is practical, then I suppose a checkbox would be necessary. ~SnapperTo 17:56, October 18, 2010 (UTC)


 * Thinking about it, I really think the second suggestion (a  parameter) would be easier on the collective sanity. In addition to the three or four series that are only a couple installments long, the multi-component series cannot be sorted by just numbers. In the case of Naruto: Clash of Ninja (series), there are two "continuities":
 * Japan: Naruto: Clash of Ninja, Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2, Naruto: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! 3, Naruto: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! 4, Naruto Shippūden: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! EX, Naruto Shippūden: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! EX 2, Naruto Shippūden: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! EX 3, Naruto Shippūden: Gekitō Ninja Taisen! Special
 * US: Naruto: Clash of Ninja, Naruto: Clash of Ninja 2, Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution, Naruto: Clash of Ninja Revolution 2, Naruto Shippūden: Clash of Ninja Revolution 3
 * ~SnapperTo 18:05, October 18, 2010 (UTC)

Is there a reason that Playable::Fourth Hokage, in addition to not automatically making a link to the article, does not compensate for redirects? Nagato and Madara have no games otherwise, and several other characters are missing a few due to laziness ("Kakashi" instead of "Kakashi Hatake"). ~SnapperTo 18:15, October 23, 2010 (UTC)

Re: Survey look
The link is inside Oasis, I'm waiting for when Oasis is made default so we can get some reasonable reader response based on a skin they can actually see. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) Oct 11, 2010 @ 03:21 (UTC) 03:21, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Re: TimeLine
the time line certainly needs a lot of work, still. It still lacks a lot of references and the more recent events are rather unwieldy at the moment. Unfortunately I kind of lost my drive to maintain the time line, causing others to take over for me in a somewhat less thorough way. —ShounenSuki (talk 21:10, October 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * I have no problem with that. The main reason I created that page was so it could one day be used as an actual article, any way. —ShounenSuki (talk 14:17, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

The Sandbox: Gotta give credit where credit is due
Is good. Very very good. It could even solve our whole infobox picture thing. I have a feeling I brought this up before...either way, keep up the good work!--TheUltimate3~The User King~ 00:41, October 24, 2010 (UTC)

One Tailed Shukaku infobox
are you an admin? Also I would like to see the Second Databook or w/e it is that says that the One-Tailed Shukaku is (itself, not by its jinchuriki) affiliated with Sunagakure. 22:54, October 24, 2010 (UTC)

small mistake on Kakashi's page
Under his list of jutsu the string reeling technique is listed as "anime only" when he also uses it in the manga to tie Sasuke to a tree for a lecture just before he defected to the Sound. I'd fix it myself but I don't know how.

Archive tool
Is it still there? Does it still work? Or was it the new skin that broke the archive tool? It was mad useful. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:54, October 31, 2010 (UTC)

Re: SMW Cache problems?
You won't be able to get the InspectCache extension installed, at least not for sysop use. On a wiki farm the memcached setup is shared between all the wiki and contains potentially private information, and that extension allows for querying of any key from the cache. So it's possible to get private information from anyone on any wiki on Wikia which is stored in the cache. ~ NOTASTAFF Daniel Friesen (DanTMan, Nadir Seen Fire) (talk) Nov 5, 2010 @ 04:53 (UTC) 04:53, November 5, 2010 (UTC)

re
hey i really have a great idea can you make a page here that has a vote who is the best....... fighter, genjutsu user, fastest, smartest etc. and have three answers for every question and at the end of the day say who the winner :D --Randomness9398 (talk) 02:09, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

Team Infobox
I see you've added a bit of new code to make allied forces display village icon instead of gender. Not sure if this is a bug, but Sai has both the Konoha symbol and the Root symbol in his team infobox. Something that is happening in all team infoboxes as far as I can see is that if the team leader has an annotation (check Fourth Division and Sound Four), the members with the annotation will not have icons added, be it gender or village/affiliation. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 19:00, November 7, 2010 (UTC)

RE:Clan
Yea I'm not sure why either. Do you think you could back me up if I bring it up to anyone? This seems kind of like a silly edit war. 04:03, November 8, 2010 (UTC)

Ranks in the Character Infobox
I'm sure I asked this before, but I will ask again just in case. Could you perhaps add the ANBU and Head Ninja ranks to the rank section of the character infobox?

On a related note, the number of teams in the team section is getting rather unwieldy, so I was thinking it might be a better idea to split it up into genin teams and other teams and organisations. This would also solve the issues I raised here. I think this would be helpful and justified, given the highly important and special status genin teams have in the series. —ShounenSuki (talk 22:22, November 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * Why can't you put it in the same drop down as the rest? —ShounenSuki (talk 07:58, November 9, 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't think any character other than Kakashi would cause a problem here and with him, I would suggest simply keeping the jōnin rank in the infobox and only mention his former ANBU status in the article. He hasn't held the ANBU rank since way before the series began, so that shouldn't be a problem.
 * Also, I'm afraid I don't understand why you linked me to that history page. I don't see how that answers my previous question. —ShounenSuki (talk 14:17, November 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * From what I can see, that was caused by a confusion between 'village head' and 'head ninja'. I asked Dantman about this before, and I remember him not being against it, but seeing problems with sorting the ranks and the Kakashi issue. —ShounenSuki (talk 20:08, November 9, 2010 (UTC)

Reference in infobox
For some reason, the reference tag is being rendered as text in Madara's infobox, but it's the only infobox doing that. It comes and goes. Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 22:16, November 10, 2010 (UTC)

Something happened to the Infoboxes
A bunch of links are dead, Chapter and episodes became unlinked, and the entire jutsu field is missing. I think someone did something at some point.--TheUltimate3 ~The User King ~ 14:51, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Well they disabled the job queue. So I can't even try to fix anything. S im A nt 21:51, November 13, 2010 (UTC)


 * Can you contact them? I fail to see the logic in whatever it is they are doing.--TheUltimate3 ~The User King ~ 21:56, November 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * I tried... they are experimenting with performance i think, and they broke something, now they are stopping the train to fix it. And I think most the staff doesn't work on weekends.. S im A nt 21:58, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Lovely.--TheUltimate3 ~The User King ~ 22:01, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Ok, the techniques are back in the infoboxes, but now they also show game techniques. Is there something you can do about it or is it still the central wikis problem? Jacce | Talk | Contributions 16:14, November 18, 2010 (UTC)
 * Tis my workaround, one of the bugs doesn't like the same query twice on a page, and ignores all but the first, so i used a slightly different query using format=count to test if it should be displayed. The medias are not displaying right because I updated the properties, expecting the job queue not to be broken. So... Unless you wanna set all of them manually.

Image change
Use a different picture for the naruto page.--Rmt0225 (talk) 21:44, November 13, 2010 (UTC) oh ok.--Rmt0225 (talk) 21:54, November 13, 2010 (UTC)

Double Redirects
I was cleaning double redirects, but there are two which are sysop-protected. I asked Snapper, but he said you might have left them as double redirects for now, maybe because of an obscure technical reason. Is there any? Omnibender - Talk - Contributions 21:42, November 14, 2010 (UTC)

I'm trying to find where the three-tailed beast arc is. could you show me where it is?

I ask to much. Infobox images
I know you've been working on fixing Wikia's fail, but I have a request for you to do whenever you can. I saw in articles like Shinra Tensei where I believe the infobox is trying to be set up where the two images can be cycled through by clicking the arrow, it just doesn't seem to be working right. If he ever does, could it be incorporated into infoboxes. The recent restart of the Konan Picture War leads me to think this would be the best way to quell it, and any more potential image warring over infoboxes.--TheUltimate3 ~The User King ~ 15:34, November 18, 2010 (UTC)
