User:Troisnyxetienne/Mensa

Welcome to the home of intellectual discussion - TNE's Mensa ! Meet me here if you want to get together and share lots of great ideas. Alternatively, if there happen to be discussions about creative stuff, policy issues and Wikimarkup ideas on my talk page, I will not move them to the archives but to this page. Coincidentally, "Mensa" is an anagramme of "Ansem", but that's not the real sense of it - it's an "institution for wise men", so to speak. As there was a bandwidth issue with my Archives, let me make it clear that in the Mensa, no talk templates are allowed apart from this header here, and the navigation template at the bottom - this will allow room for more text, and perhaps some sandbox-equivalent edits. Also note that all sections are open unless stated otherwise. This will allow all users visiting the Mensa to help chip in thoughts for incomplete or pending templates/pages/policies/ideas. Return to the user page or see past discussions. Helping others always comes before asking others for help. • TroisNyxÉtienne

Whoa ! So wait a minute : can you pass me the link to each ? So that I can see what types of personalities they have ? TNÉ _{En avant Bravo !} 04:00, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Here is one page and then all the others are in a navigation box at the bottom. [1] - HeartOfOblivion 04:10, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

OMG. Now here's to thinking what characters should be placed into the userboxes. TNÉ _{En avant Bravo !} 04:14, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Hello there, mind if I barge in :P I happen to have a Quizilla account, and I'd love to try to make this WikiFauna test for you :D I think that we should set it up as 24 questions, with (at least) 10 answer possibilities, defining the answer. Each question would be about a single WikiThingy's specialty, like How do you treat newbies? (the best answer would be for WikiOtters, while the worst would probably be for the WikiVampires). Get it? could we do this? - Iceboy^Svalur! 14:34, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Sweet! But for 25 WikiFauna possibilities, what should we do? TNÉ _{En avant Bravo !} 14:36, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

This has been awhile but I agree. I don't think we should have a question like #10 up above. I always hate that when I take a quiz and I feel like I know what I'm going to get as a result because of questions like those. It should be about the person's personality and editing style. - HeartOfOblivion 05:00, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

Possible Image Choices

• WikiGryphon: Wyvern?
• WikiFallen: Wight Knight
• WikiMinnow: Flounder and make WikiTrout an Aquatank?
• WikiVampire: Sora's Vampire form
• WikiWizard: Yen Sid or Merlin
• WikiElf: Santa Elves from Christmas Town
• WikiFairy: Tinkerbell We already had it just wasn't on the Userbox page.

Another problem: categorisation. See Category talk:Users by WikiFauna. TNÉ _{En avant Bravo !} 04:26, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Well, we'll have to wait for an admin to help because we can't move categories and it would take awhile to go through all of them and then have to delete them. - HeartOfOblivion 04:29, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

They have the Move button. We normal users used to have it but when Wikia changed its policies here and there, they decreed that we can't have the move button. See how much trouble it creates for us. I used to be able to move articles at my own will. Now I can't. TNÉ _{En avant Bravo !} 04:32, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

EDIT: We do have the Move button, but not for Categories. Damn. TNÉ _{En avant Bravo !} 04:34, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Or files. I'd love to stay up and help but I have classes tomorrow. So night! - HeartOfOblivion 04:35, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

G'night then. See ya soon. TNÉ _{En avant Bravo !} 04:43, September 16, 2009 (UTC)

Once again, sorry this has been so long. Did we ever fix this problem? If not, I shall ping an admin. - HeartOfOblivion 05:00, January 30, 2010 (UTC)

Deflect statistics - KH1 : List

R&D, Xion4ever and I are currently working on this project together. I'm specifically handling FM Heartless, if there ever is a way to deflect them. If you'd like to join us, please help out ! TROISNYX AMDG Sulu mata engkudu ! 00:45, June 10, 2010 (UTC)

NOTE : The reason why experience varies in the Beginner Mode is because of an EXP-enhancing ability, Tech Up, which Sora has by default from the Awakening. After Level 11, EXP just goes up. Without Tech Up, the Tech Points received will be the same as in Kingdom Hearts. Consider that towards the end, I have had at least three Tech Ups equipped. I must replay these files and see what happens when only one, or two Tech Ups are equipped.

The stats I put in for FM Heartless before Kairi's rescue use one Tech Up.

Discussion

For the Powerwild I'm getting 9 EXP for both inside and outside Deep Jungle..difference between KH and KHFM?--Xion4ever 01:52, June 10, 2010 (UTC)

When I was doing that, I was playing KH, not KHFM.... Weird ! Unless it's a different attack. Was it the slide attack or the claw ? TROISNYX AMDG 01:21, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

I do believe it was the claws..I might be mistaken. Hang on, I'll check again..

Okay, weird... I'd better check Deep Jungle again. In the meantime, mark it as 9 EXP for all places. TROISNYX AMDG 02:33, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

EDIT: Both the slide and claw attacks give you 9 EXP.--Xion4ever 02:11, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, weird... I'd better check Deep Jungle again. In the meantime, mark it as 9 EXP for all places.

EDIT 12:00, June 11, 2010 (UTC) : For all these stats, are those after Kairi's rescue ?TROISNYX AMDG

Yes, after Kairi's rescue...that's probably why. All the ones I've added have been from Kairi's rescue. Think we should put something like (AKR) to show the stats are after Kairi is rescued? Also, I have another save file that is before her rescue, I'll start getting some stats from it.--Xion4ever 15:16, June 11, 2010 (UTC)

I don't know if it's the same before and after the rescue but the Bandit tech ponts after the recue are also 27. User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig

I'll check the before rescue part here directly (I'm about to start Agrabah in the save file). Anyways, I've added Redeemer's information under the appropriate section.--Xion4ever 19:33, June 12, 2010 (UTC)

Ok... The World of Chaos itself does not provide tech points. The Artillery does and the heartless you fight during teh battle does too. But I'm not sure. Maybe someone should double check. I find it hard to deflect while flying.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig

I know ; deflection doesn't usually happen while flying. Even harder to trigger in FM. And I also think I should restart FM in normal or Proud Mode (I'm playing in Beginner, and I'm advancing too fast). TROISNYX AMDG 00:48, June 26, 2010 (UTC)

I apologize for not adding to the project as of late. However, I will pick up in Agrabah and add everything I get the next time I am on. Sorry for the delay.-Xion4ever

Thanks a lot. ^_^ I'm counting on you. In the event that I have to go on WB or worse (Let's pray the worst doesn't happen !!), do ask ShardofTruth to help out, because he has KHFM. TROISNYX AMDG 13:45, June 30, 2010 (UTC)

MA Template

Almost everyone and anyone gets into the MA warning templates - though this is only but a suggestion. I will only put it up when everyone says yes.

---

First Warning

Return my friend's heart or pay the price!
	This is a warning for not adhering to the rules of the Mirage Arena. Your edits have been reverted; please do not attempt to repeat them. This is a Mirage Arena warning, and is separate from warnings accumulated in the mainspace of the Kingdom Hearts Wiki, thus not counting towards a block or ban, but counting towards the revoking of voting privileges.

Now I need ideas for Warning 2, Warning 3... I'll attempt Permanent Loss of Privileges. :P Though this one risks being hard because I can't get to align the text to the centre. If all else fails I'll take a cue from KHFR...

Permanent loss of privileges

The privileges you know will be gone forever.
File:VanitasCGITalk.png	For inadherence to the rules of the Mirage Arena, your voting privileges have been irretrievably revoked.

Main Page

The things that I shall copy and paste here are things which I found fascinating from other wikis — I'm not going to copy them outright, but I must see if there's anything that needs to be tweaked first before I go any further.

Things I've liked

• http://www.wikirby.info/wiki/Template:Lineup
• The header for WiKirby.
  • My idea is that we can lower the main page a bit, and have the header base itself off the BBSFM wallpaper, and then we change the background colour to a solid colour based on the BG. Search bar will be in the middle, but I only know this much.

To do

• Learn up Greasemonkey.
• Pay attention to Forum:Aesthetics.
• Take a look at [2].
  • Pay attention to Rounded Blue Edition. The header can definitely be modified, and the search bar looks as if it's in the right place. Now all we need is to change the design of the buttons which say "Discussion", "Edit" etc.
  • Okay, so I've downloaded the PSD files for Rounded Blue Edition — now to get to the code.

EDIT 05:26, 12 February 2011 (EST) : Can someone help me at least find the code, please ?

• Modify MediaWiki:Monobook.css. NO WAIT IT'S [3]
  • This is to enable even our templates to use BGs.
• How do we EVEN modify Monobook.css ?!

OUCH. [4]

For Common.css

To be modified

---

/* CSS placed here will be applied to all skins */

.daysstrip{ background-color:#FFDEAD; background-image:url(/images/3/3f/WKfelt.png); }

.bbsstrip{ background-color:#90EE90; background-image:url(/images/0/0e/BGStars.png); }

Specs

• Header : 2000 x 750
  • The skin from which I'm copying the layout has two PSD files, one 2000 x 250 and one 2000 x 500.

Input

File:Header prototype.png

Please see this in full. The rest of the wiki will have a BG colour similar to the bottom of this image — dark blue, that is.

File:Logotest1.png

Please test it against the dark BG.

Layout

Open for editing ! Here, you decide where the boxes on the main page should go, and how they should go. If you're okay with the current layout, tell me at the bottom of the second line — be sure to sign with the four tildes (no templates for obvious reasons).

I'll also need someone to help me tile the wiki background like, say, 15 x 5 (considering each tile is a square). Never mind — this was for the header, and I thought I'd make it look almost exactly like the BBSFM wallpaper, but now less is more... I guess.

---

I could possibly help with the tile background, but I'd need directions for it first. Erry 14:02, 12 February 2011 (EST)
