Mysterious Tower Battle Music BBS
Can Anyone Post the batte music "Working Together" From Birth By Sleep? Not the Kingdom Hearts II Version.

No KH3, fansites mistranslated again:
Game Informer 207;
 * Bryan Vore: "Translations of your interview in the Kingdom Hearts: Birth by Sleep Ultimania seem to confirm that Kingdom Hearts III is coming along with two other games."
 * Tetsuya Nomura: "Kingdom Hearts III is not a confirmed titles. I actually phrased my answer for the Ultimania "two titles other than III" to avoid speculation that we were working on Kingdom Hearts III."
 * Bryan Vore: "Are there any hints you can provide about these games?"
 * Tetsuya Nomura: "Hints would give away too much, and for Kingdom Hearts we're contractually obligated to keep any information that has not been officially released under wraps. However, I can say one of the two projects mentioned above came into existence because we wanted to do something for the North American fans, so we'll be announcing it at E3."

RE: your galleries
I notice at:

http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/Sora#Forms/Costumes

The galleries are normal. As you may or may not know, they really messed up the galleries, causing a lot of frustration and anger. See:

http://community.wikia.com/wiki/User_blog:Sarah_Manley/Design_your_own_photo_galleries

An editor wrote:


 * I checked with the custom CSSs and KHWiki do not have one. Everyone else who's dissatisfied can check and see one of the example pages, because Wikia seems to have overlook this.


 * I wish to highlight that one of the Wikis, the Kingdom Hearts Wiki apparently managed to keep their old Wikipedia-style Gallery intact. How can they not be affected?

So how did you all doe this ? I would be dying to know because I despise the new galleries too. Please message me on my talk page with a response, or let me know when you responded here. Thank you. Anno1404 01:01, July 25, 2010 (UTC)

Hello? 15:02, September 26, 2010 (UTC)

Anyone? 22:01, October 1, 2010 (UTC)

What about this? Can someone attach it onto the page? (with permission, of course)

Helloooooo? 16:04, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Doesn't it say at the top of the page "share this article" with a facebook icon next to it? -- Neumannz ,  The Dark Falcon  16:29, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Beside the twitter and freenode symbol, the share the article is only for the page to be shown on your Facebook profile. 17:41, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Then I don't know. -- Neumannz ,  The Dark Falcon  17:44, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

I just mean shouldn't we add the facebook symbol beside the microphone on the main page beacause we do have a facebook page? 21:01, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

The New Look
Im sorry Kingdom Hearts Wiki, but this new look is anoying and confusing, if you please.... CHANGE IT BACK!!!

Wikia changed it. We did nothing. ==Pea 14733== 07:51, October 22, 2010 (UTC)

Well then Wikia change it back!!!

If you read the forum with all the cursing symbols in it's name, and when i say in its name i maean as it's name, you'll find that we've been trying to convince them to do just that, but they just don't wanna listen to us. and please sign your posts-- Shadows  Twilight  06:06, October 23, 2010 (UTC)

Command Board updating
Yeah guys, all of the Heartless contained in the box have been updated accordingly. They need to be replaced with more articles in need of repair. I wasn't sure if I was allowed to do this without a staff member... so... yeah. Have fun.

Question
Now that KHW has a YT page, should we link it to the main page ? Also bringing up the reminder about the Facebook group — it'd be great if we could edit just that section of the main page. Tambours Tonnerre Ensemble !  08:11, 10 February 2011 (EST)

News
I think our breaking off from Wikia has earned a mention on the news section on thi Wiki and the Wikia one. There should also definitely be a link on the Wikia-Wiki to this address. If we want thisWiki to get more traffic we need it to be more prominent on the original location.15:30, 12 February 2011 (EST)
 * I didn't notice the move until now. Until today, I thought that this wiki still was based on Wikia, and I see that several people have been editing there, possibly not knowing anything about the move. Wouldn't there be some way to get people to find this site from the old Wikia site?
 * For example, you could copy new sections of certain important articles from this site to the Wikia site. According to the Creative Commons licence, this requires attribution of the source of the relevant section (with a link to a page where the article history can be located), so you get a reason to include a link to this site. This link would have to go to the corresponding article on this site, so contributors might notice that the formulations are almost the same, realising that this is where to look instead.
 * It would also be nice if this would get people to go away from that annoying Wikia site. I had to add a bookmark to my bookmark toolbar appending '?useskin=monobook' (or '&useskin=monobook' depending on the URL) to the current data in the location bar just in order to read that site! --212.247.11.156 23:07, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
 * We actually can't advertise this site on the wikia site, as the people who own the wikia site (wikia) would erase that and ban anyone who put it up. The most we can do is put links to this site on the userpages of the people who've left the old site, which we've done.
 * Copying the content over to the old site would just make the old site easier to find on google, because of how it's algorithms work. On the long haul, it's better for us to just keep making high-quality, unique content so that we appear higher on google searches.
 * Yeah, we know, Oasis sucks. 23:32, 9 November 2011 (UTC)

Mirage Arena
Now that the Nominations are up and running and the Battle Box vote has started, shouldn't we post a link to them on the main page? 15:57, 12 February 2011 (EST)

Partnership
Hey, sry if I'm in the wrong section, I want to ask you about a partnership with the KH-Wiki. It's ok if you aren't interested in anything like this, just wanted to ask you, though. Just in case I'm one of the leading administrators. Greetings Sum2k3 14:28, 19 March 2011 (EDT) Ok, i was in the wrong section.. also partnership sounds a bit wrong. xD I found the right corner to ask about affiliation. Sum2k3 04:02, 20 March 2011 (EDT)

Interviews
So, mainly spurred by EnglishJoker going around checking our unsourced statements, I went through KHInsider's archives and got links to every interview I could find (excluding a few repetitive ones). I figure it's easier to have a shortlist here rather than having to do this every time we need a source. Most involve fluff we already know now or development things, but I have them for the sake of completedness. So... here:

"The Birth of Kingdom Hearts"  The Birth by sleep ending video  The tone of the Kingdom Hearts series  The side stories of Kingdom Hearts  Days, coded, and BBS, post-reveal   Nomura talks Kingdom Hearts  Days and coded gameplay  BBS, Days, and coded  More BBS, Days, and coded  Tidbits of BBS, Days, and coded  BBS, Days, and coded, take two  New trailers and interviews  New trailers and interviews… again  Three games, three developers, three interviews  Nomura, no answers  Nomura and Hasagawa  Long gameplay… interview?  Long, missing Ultimania interviews   How coded connects  Big Days interview    Big BBS interview  Interview with Yasue  Interview with Nomura and Yasue  Nomura’s opinions on BBS  Nomura on BBS again  Another missing Ultimania interview  Yet another BBS interview  Interview with other developers  Post-BBS interview  Massive BBS interview   Non-Nomura coded interview  Nomura, yes answers  Lots and lots of answers  Nomura is a lying liar  Another short interview  3D, coded, and Pixar  BBS and Re:coded  BBS development and design  Nomura talks 3D  Nomura talks BBS development  Nomura talks 3D  Nomura talks Re: coded development  Nomura talks 3D and BBSFM   Re: coded mysteries   3D interview  BBSFM interview  Wardrobe change in 3D  Yoko Shimomura interview   20 Mysteries of KH 
 * Very brief interview with some information about when Nomura began development on the KH concept.
 * Wide variety of information, mostly relating to the secret ending video of KHIIFM, and the then-recently named characters; Terra, Aqua, and Ven.
 * Again, only a very brief mention of KH, but Nomura notes the difference in tone between KH and FF (the latter is darker than the former), and may indicate the somewhat darker tone Days and BBS took.
 * Generally nothing new except for some tidbits of developmental information, except for one part where Nomura describes the then-untold “side stories” that don’t focus on Sora, including the BBS video, Mickey finding the Kingdom Key D, Roxas’ life, and Riku activity during Sora’s slumber.
 * Simple interviews with Nomura not long after BBS, Days, and coded were revealed.
 * General stuff about the series, particularly BBS, coded, and Days.
 * A brief interview discussing some gameplay for Days and coded.
 * Three sizeable interviews about BBS, Days, and coded, covering a wide array of topics about them.
 * A bit less info than the above interviews, but Nomura talks about the “Unbirths” and seems to make a direct reference to the “born” part of their names. Weird.
 * Tiny interviews about the three games.
 * Contains another set of fairly large interviews about the games.
 * Contains brief interviews about Nomura talking about the then-recently released trailers for the three games.
 * Same as the above.
 * Nomura and two other developers are interviewed.
 * Contains a brief interview where Nomura doesn’t really reveal anything new.
 * Contains part of an interview with Nomura and Hasagawa about the development of Days.
 * Contains a long bit of info about Days’ gameplay. KHInsider says it’s an interview, but either they’re talking about the link to Heartstation I’m too lazy to follow or I’m just not seeing the interview part. Including it for safety.
 * Should contain a long interview about BBS and coded, but the links display 404 errors.
 * Contains a brief interview about the three games, and comments on how coded links up to the rest of the series.
 * A big interview about things relating to the Organization and Days. No, Nobodies don’t age.
 * Equally large interview about BBS with a lot of info. Including the official name of the Unversed.
 * Interview with co-director Yasue about BBS.
 * Interview with Nomura and Yasue about BBS.
 * Contains a brief interview with Nomura, which is mostly his opinions about BBS.
 * More of Nomura discussing BBS, particularly emphasizing how important Braig/Xigbar is in the series.
 * Should contain another Ultimania interview, but instead I get another 404 error.
 * Contains what I said.
 * Two developers, a rare interview devoid of Nomura, discuss the development of BBS.
 * Nomura talks about the steps leading up to KHIII and hints at another game after BBS and coded, and ends by making me want to throw rocks at him for not telling us anything.
 * Massive interview about some new revelations made in BBS.
 * Jun Kato discusses the development of coded and hints at it being released for systems other than phones.
 * Large interview with Nomura actually directly answering plot questions for once, mostly relating to BBS and questions it raised.
 * More of the above, but much larger and answering more questions.
 * Short interview about BBS where Nomura comments that there won’t be a game based on the Keyblade War. But he also says that there wouldn’t be a BBSFM, so we know how good his promises are…
 * Mostly about BBS and a bit about 3D development.
 * Contains brief info about 3D, coded, and Nomura’s interest in bringing in Pixar characters in the future.
 * Nomura talks about the changes to the English version of BBS and Re:coded.
 * Nomura talks about the development and design decisions behind BBS.
 * Short interview with Nomura giving a few details about KH3D’s story and whatnot.
 * Short interview where Nomura talks about why he made some development choices in BBS, like including Zack or some of the worlds.
 * Contains a brief Youtube of Nomura talking about 3DS.
 * Short interview about Re: coded.
 * Fairly large interview with Nomura discussing KH3D & BBSFM.
 * Interview with Nomura about Re: coded and the questions it raised.
 * A brief interview about the future of KH.
 * Short interview about the changes to BBSFM from the English BBS.
 * Very brief tidbit about Nomura looking into Sora and Riku’s outfits changing.
 * Change of pace with Shimomura talking about the music.
 * Don't think I found this one earlier. It's the one dealing with the origin of Xemnas, the Org., etc.

SEIWA Box
Hey guys, sorry If I am out of place here; but I was wondering if someone could add a SEIWA area to the front page? Thank you for your time, Bud0011 01:36, 9 November 2011 (UTC).
 * Hmm... let me see what I can do.
 * Also, in the NIWA wikis, the logo's color is changed to match each wiki's overall color scheme. Would anyone object to me doing the same here? -- 23:52, 9 November 2011 (UTC)
 * By chance, do you mean how some NIWA wiki's have the NIWA logo, like so?
 * Like, in some places it's red while in others it's blue or green or pink in order to match that wiki's theme. -- 02:10, 10 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Ah, yeah. Minor cosmetic changes would probably be fine. So long as it is simple like a color change or something. ;). Bud0011 17:29, 10 November 2011 (UTC).

So, where can I find the crown image used as the website logo:

 * Hold on, I'll go get the Hi-res version 02:41, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Here: http://i40.tinypic.com/5nu979.png 02:45, 11 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Look's good.... especially the High-Def Vision. Also, was that a question? Bud0011 20:32, 11 November 2011 (UTC).
 * Can someone with coding knowledge put the template onto the main page so that it looks like this? -- 01:02, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
 * I tried, but the template's coding conflicts with whatever I try. The template's content goes outside my divs, even though it isn't supposed to. -- So  ve  01:33, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Will that work? if not, feel free to change it, Bud0011 02:23, 12 November 2011 (UTC).
 * It would look better if it was directly under the Helping out box, but something in the template screws it up when I try to place it there. -- So  ve  02:27, 12 November 2011 (UTC)
 * Ok, changed. Bud0011 02:38, 12 November 2011 (UTC).

Past tense
Sooo...it turns out that "past tense" is what is used to describe even in-play events on most high-quality wikis, like tfwiki or wookiepedia. Do we want to start using it as well, or are we happy as we are? 16:53, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Affiliate option
I have an option for affiliate that we need to discuss whether we should pursue, so all staff, please show up on the IRC today. 17:07, 12 November 2011 (UTC)

Shut down?
Wikipedia shuts down: Why aren't we protesting against SOPA and PIPA? (Wikipedia vs. United States Congress) --NumberXV 17:56, 18 January 2012 (UTC)

Shortcut

 * Search for khwiki.net-- 17:06, 25 January 2012 (UTC)

Look at this
http://disney.go.com/create/apps/digitalpainter/kingdom-hearts this was on disney.com, its pretty awesome and this is a game http://disney.go.com/games/play3/?content=863188#/games/play3/&content=863188


 * To clarify: these are official KH things and should be covered somewhere. 07:21, 27 February 2012 (UTC)

Xehanort renders
I think they make a good addition to the page, at least until we finally decide to update it. I don't find them to be an eyesore. 19:03, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I do, especially since they're not even official. Since it's our KH3D theme, we should at least make it Sora and Riku, or the Wandanyan and Komori Bat. It's more fitting than randomly plopping Terranort and Xehanort on there. - Terra Master Symbol.png Eternal   Nothingness   XIII  Terra Master Symbol.png 20:43, 14 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I always thought that the Xehanort render is one of the best ever created, I'd really love to see a more prominent place for it. --ShardofTruth 14:31, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
 * I think it looks great. Sora and Riku already own the logo, let's give the villains a place to shine. 14:36, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Considering that I'm rarely on the Main Page anymore, I think it looks fine. It makes people think "Oh damn, they have renders. This must be a professional site."   Maybe. *sniff* Maybe.     14:59, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
 * Then we should be using the bloody official renders! The ability to extract and animate a render from game coding has nothing whatsoever to do with professionalism. I don't care how "cool" the one of Xehanort holding a heart is to people. It just looks so weird the way we randomly plop them, of all characters, on the page. The renders should at least have relevance to the Wiki-theme, which is, in this case, KH3D. If you're all so adamant on using Xehanort incarnations, why not just use Xemnas and Ansem, Seeker of Darkness? - Terra Master Symbol.png Eternal   Nothingness   XIII  Terra Master Symbol.png 15:20, 15 April 2012 (UTC)
