Story arc pages

Just wanted to say, I love the job you're doing on the storyline pages. -- Deltaneos (talk) 14:27, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

• Thanks Deltaneos. :) I'm currently revisiting the Yu-Gi-Oh series from beginning to end, and after checking up on a card effect I found your Wiki (great job by the way). Since I know a bit about HTML, I thought I'd pitch in. Guess I'm just a fan with too much time on his hands. :P (Mpanty 14:33, 31 August 2009 (UTC))

Yu-Gi-Oh! Rise of the Busters

My name's Psychid, and I'm kind of both old and new here at the Wikia community (meaning that I've been here many times before, but haven't got familiar with most of the rules and regulations; some might be completely new to me). I can also be found at the Yu-Gi-Oh! Card Maker Wikia, the Total Drama Island Wikia, and the Total Drama Island Fan Fiction Wikia (man, I'm on a lot of places! =O). I also have a FanFiction.Net account, which you can also check out, if you'd like. ;)

And one of the stories I have written on FF.Net is entitled Yu-Gi-Oh! Rise of the Busters which is a crossover fic between Total Drama Island and Yu-Gi-Oh! 5D's. Unfortunately, I've decided to rewrite it (which probably doesn't surprise you in any form of way, seeing that this is pretty much the first time you've heard about it). =( Fortunately, though, I'm working on the remake as we speak, and hopefully, it will be out relatively soon. =) And I hope you enjoy it, once it comes out! =D

And in addition to posting the remake on FanFiction.Net, I also plan on posting it on the Total Drama Isalnd Fan Fiction Wikia, just so I can make links to any pop culture references I include in the story (kind of like how they do it on Yu-Gi-Oh: The Abridged Series...). =P

Oh, and if you respond to this message, can you please leave it on my talk page, just so that the computer lets me know that I got it? Please, and thank you! =)

Great talking to you (kind of)! =D --Psychid45, a.k.a. Psychid; real pen name, no gimmicks! 13:33, September 1, 2009 (UTC)

Re: Featured Duels format + Complete list of ALL Duels in Yu-Gi-Oh! anime

1. What about adding something like Kaiba's turn or 1st turn - Kaiba above the individual turns, so it doesn't make a mess of the table of contents? Or we could give them the lowest section level, something like =====Kaiba's turn=====, and use <div class="toclimit-5">__TOC__</div> to generate the table of contents hiding all level 5 sections.... or was the turns appearing in the table of contents what you liked about it?http://yugioh.wikia.com/index.php?title=User_talk:Mpanty&action=submit
2. Yeah, looks good. Do you intend on also making one table that contains all Duels or just one table per story arc? On the Duelist Kingdom page, couldn't we cut out the season and arc columns, since they're all the same? -- Deltaneos (talk) 22:22, September 2, 2009 (UTC)

1. A Level 2 header is much too high for a turn, as it will put them on par with all the other main headers on the page. (Level 1 shouldn't be used, as they're considered on par with title of the page)... we could just manually number the turns.
   What I would have liked would be to create multiple tables of contents. The main one that deals with all headers bar the individual turns and a second that appears next to the Duel summary on the left hand side, linking to the individual turns. It is possible, but looks like syntax would be long.
   Headers are used to seperate setions and allows users to jump straight to them. The pure gameplay aspects of a turn isn't a majorly significant event that it needs its own section. They usually ammount to only 2 sentences, which is hardly worth a section. And I can't see why anyone would use the table to link to an individual turn... So the only purpose of having them mentioned in the contents is to give an idea of how long the Duel was?
   There are quite a few other things that can go in the TOC for episode pages. All episodes can have a summary, sometimes broken into sections. Most Yu-Gi-Oh! episodes and chapters can have sections dealing with how they differed from the manga or anime. Other ones you see on a few episode pages include, Differences in adaptions, Featured cards, Mistakes. Or ones more specific to the episode, like the Cameos section here.
2. What specific info do you need fed to you? Which episodes Duels took place over, how many Life Points were left and such? We should already have that info on the episode pages. One thing I do notice you are missing however is the manga, which is kind of hard to find info about. I could add the details for a lot, but not all manga Duels. -- Deltaneos (talk) 00:33, September 3, 2009 (UTC)

1. Header 1s are typically avoided on all wikis for being the same level as the page title. Buttons on the edit screen and "add new message" button all start at header 2 for this reason. Wikipedia says to start with header 2, since the title is header 1. Wikia just says header 2s are top level and doesn't even mention header 1s.
   It is possible to customise headers sitewide like that... but I'm not prepared to do it just for the sake of the Duel summaries. I dunno how advanced your html knowledge is, but each user has their own cascading style sheets that they can use to change the appearance of the site for themselves only. User:Mpanty/monaco.css can be used to customise your Monaco skin and User:Mpanty/monobook.css can be used to customise your Monobook skin. To increase the font size of level 1 headings, you'd add something like this:

h1 {
	font-size:80px !important;
}

h2 instead of h1 for level 2 etc. And there should be other css to add underlines and what not.

1. You can start a forum if you want, but I can't guarantee it'll attract much help. I'm not saying it won't work either. User's are more inclined to edit whatever interests them. -- Deltaneos (talk) 11:38, September 3, 2009 (UTC)

I know I'm not Deltaneos but I'd just like to say...

Hi Mpanty, I removed your images because the card article page because it helps to keep the articles are looking similar/tidy (I don't know about you but I find it annoying when some pages have 2 images when other just have 1), also your images are still being used they've just been moved the appearances pages for each of the cards.

Finally, just so you know I've been under the impression that 1. Only 1 image on the "Main Page" for a card article at any time and 2. A Non-Card (a.k.a. NC) image of a card should only be used when no images of the actual card is available, and apart from Necro Jar the other two images you uploaded (I know you uploaded more but these are 3 I removed) were NC images so shouldn't be used in the "Main Page" for their respective cards as another non-NC image is already available. --Trivi-AM 20:15, September 15, 2009 (UTC)
