Leadership
So, I'd like to ask - who is the main bureaucrat here? E n e r g y X ∞ 22:16, August 1, 2012 (UTC)


 * There are two bureaucrats. You can see a list at Special:ListUsers/bureaucrat. Nobody is the leader per se. Decisions are ideally based on communal agreements, not what one person wants. TwoTailedFox is however the founder, if that's what you're wondering. -- Deltaneos (talk) 22:25, August 1, 2012 (UTC)

Package editions
From what I have found and have on hand, LOB, MRD, MRL/SRL, and PSV are the only main series packs that have versions without any language box, i.e. no For U.S. & Canada English Edition or English Edition. Those four sets have four have six different packs in all:
 * Two no language box, 1st Edition and Unlimited, SET-###
 * Two For Europe English Edition, 1st Edition and Unlimited, SET-E###
 * One For U.S. & Canada English Edition, Unlimited Edition, SET-###
 * One English Edition, Unlimited Edition, SET-EN###

Its a little strange for MRL since it changed to SRL but it follows the same pattern just the last two are SRL and SRL-EN respectively. As for uploading the different editions of the packs I'm fine with that it is not necessarily needed but we could do it. ^_^ We would really have to dig for some of the early ones though.

A strange side note, I just bought a couple of special edition sets and the third pack in each was strange. The Tactical Evolution: Special Edition's Invasion of Chaos pack was labeled English Edition and came with IOC-EN cards like I expected but the Tactical Evolution: Special Edition's Labyrinth of Nightmare pack was labeled English Edition as well but came with LON-E cards. And Gladiator's Assault: Special Edition's Dark Crisis pack again was labeled English Edition but the cards were just DCR. So, yeah after those first four sets it gets stranger.

BAM Stuff
In Yu-Gi-Oh! BAM, I've managed to directly extract a whole lot of sprites which I might upload later. Anyways, the point of this is actually, I've noticed that we have pages for music, so should we make pages for things like these? /where?
 * ygo_story_map_1.mp3
 * ygo_story_map_2.mp3
 * ygo_story_map_3.mp3

You can hotlink to them apparently, since the files in the game are all downloaded separately as you need to use them as you play the game. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 15:03, August 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * Are there more than just those three? I'd say "Story Map 1", "Story Map 2" and "Story Map 3" would be okay pagenames for them. If hotlinking's okay, which it seems to be, we can link to those mp3s from their articles. There is an extension, FlashMP3Whitelist, that we could ask to have set up that would allow us to directly embed those files with  tags, but I'm not so sure if we can legally do that. -- Deltaneos (talk) 15:21, August 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * Those should be all the main background ones. There are also sound effects, like: ygo_sfx_8_emergency.mp3
 * But I don't really think they're worth noting. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 15:33, August 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * Okay. It's hardly worth setting up an extension just to play three files. I guess we can just link to them in that case. -- Deltaneos (talk) 15:38, August 4, 2012 (UTC)


 * Seems like I missed 5 others. Found them after I cleared my cache, it seems like the thing I'm using doesn't catch them if they are loaded from the cache instead of re-downloaded.
 * So there are 8 now. -Falzar FZ- (talk page|useful stuff) 02:36, August 5, 2012 (UTC)

Navigation
What's exactly the difference between and  ? I used to use the latter one for the manga cards, but some editors replaced some of them with the other one, so I'm totally lost. :| LegendaryAsariUgetsu (talk • contribs) 17:21, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * There is no difference whatsoever as far as I know. Some editors prefer the former, some the latter, but they both have the same result. In the same vein, cards that are in video games, but not in the real game use or  . Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 17:46, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * The intention is that Navigation2 and Navigation3 are shorthand for Navigation with common but non-standard settings; they're meant to be substituted according to Navigation's documentation.
 * At some point, I'm going to have to sit down and make Navigation work in these cases without setting parameters (by getting the necessary info via SMW). It's been on my to-do list for a long time, actually. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 18:44, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * Right, it shorthand, but that doesn't mean its less or more right than using the full version I myself prefer to not use the shorthand (for no good reason, mind you). Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 20:19, August 6, 2012 (UTC)


 * Actually, there is a good reason not to use the shorthands: they don't support the other parameters that the main template does. While this makes absolutely no difference for most cards, consistency is probably better in this case. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 20:59, August 6, 2012 (UTC)

About theworld championship page
Vishagan About theworld championship page: the players deck types reference are the live coverage videos do they count as valid cites? or Jarel winston (theplayers themselves) —This unsigned comment was made by Vishagan (talk • contribs) 17:20, 11 August 2012‎ (UTC)


 * I guess they do. But since there's no way of rewatching those videos (or can you?), it's nice to also have some solid references which can be checked afterwards.
 * I would say the players are also valid sources. Although we'd need proof that they actually said whatever they're being quoted as saying. -- Deltaneos (talk) 17:33, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

Template:Flag versus Template:FlagLang
Any idea what the difference between these is supposed to be? Would there be any problem with moving the latter over the former if there is none? 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 18:48, August 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * I think originally, flag took the region of the flag as input, while FlagLang took a language and outputted the associated flag. -- Deltaneos (talk) 18:52, August 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * Aah. Well, IMO, there are too many problems with using language as input for a flag template, so I'm fine with losing that distinction. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 19:05, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

Priority
Does it just an Ignition Priority being gone or entire set of "Priority" (such as Ignition, Trigger, etc.) are gone? If former is true, then GameFAQs members must budging their head into the wrong wall. -- i  F  r  e  d  C  a  t  21:43, August 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * While it's not called priority anymore, you are correct, effectively just ignition effect priority is gone. When you Summon a monster you can activate an effect triggered by the Summon or a Quick Effect before the opponent can play something like "Bottomless Trap Hole". e.g. you can use the first effect of "Black Rose Dragon"or the effect of "Strike Ninja", but not the second effect of "Black Rose Dragon". You can show them Konami's page for proof. -- Deltaneos (talk) 22:56, August 11, 2012 (UTC)


 * Interesting, that very same link Shamack used... only Kevin's link is full of the lies. Last time he blahed about the game mechanic, he got foot'd down by Konami as they declared that Xyz Material ain't exist on the field (which Kevin said they do). I decided to not trust Kevin's stuff, ever if he's a honestly person. -- i  F  r  e  d  C  a  t  23:08, August 11, 2012 (UTC)

Chatban
Why did I get banned? User talk:Collaborate and listen —Preceding undated comment added 16:35, August 21, 2012‎ (UTC)


 * Because you are an alternate account of Cd5464. -- Deltaneos (talk) 16:38, August 21, 2012 (UTC)

You ban me because of an assumption? An inaccurate assumption at that. My account name is collaborate_and_listen. I don't have alternates at this time. This is my current account. User:Collaborate and listen


 * The fact that Delta is amazing in busting other users just simply the way they talk. Delta can also check your IP and compare it to Cd5464's, something he hates to do. So don't try to say you aren't. If Delta says you are, then you are. -- E. G.G.  (My Contributions) 16:55, August 21, 2012 (UTC)


 * Agreed, Nexus - IP address never changed unless they are hacker, and I don't think Cd5464 had that skill yet. -- i  F  r  e  d  C  a  t  16:58, August 21, 2012 (UTC)

I was wondering about that once. I decided to look up my ip location. There are two other signals with the same address. The signals all overlap each other though. The distance isn't that far away from the other. It is possible that this cd is one of the other signals. It would be understandable if you keep the ban intact, for I cannot prove I am not this cd.

Character infobox
Something appears to have changed and its affecting Infobox/Yu-Gi-Oh!/Character. Usually, the "corresponding card" is linked by default. It now has to be done manually, which affects quite a lot of Duel Spirit pages. Was there a Wikia update that changed something? Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 17:21, August 24, 2012 (UTC)


 * Since the last update, Negref got disabled. That's a custom extension that lets us put references next to SMW stuff without it breaking. i.e. so we get  rather than  . Staff are aware that Negref is disabled, but haven't switched it back on, so I guess it's incompatible now. I've rewrote some templates so that we can mix SMW and references without needing Negref, but I could only get it to work such that if the input is linked, the output is linked and if the input is unlinked, the output is unlinked.
 * Corresponding card doesn't look like it's ever going to need references, so if you want I could rewrite that particular part of the template to accept unlinked content and link it, but not allow for references. -- Deltaneos (talk) 18:28, August 24, 2012 (UTC)


 * That would be great. Either that or Falzar could do one of his crazy bot runs to link everything. Cheesedude (talk • contribs) 19:07, August 24, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yeah, the linked input might be the better option. If there's ever something like Jinzo 7 (character),  could be used, which would be much more convenient than trying to find some other way of including both the card name and page name. -- Deltaneos (talk) 20:36, August 24, 2012 (UTC)

Monster Reincarnation Gallery Error

 * Due to this fool's editing spree, the card gallery link on the Monster Reincarnation page is now glitched. This is what it shows for me, is it the same for you, and do you know how to fix it? Thanks.--YamiWheeler (talk • contribs) 20:17, August 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Now we know that these galleries problems aren't a wikia problem. Is someone that is causing this type of problem. This page has the same problem and it isn't the only page. -- E. G.G.  (My Contributions) 20:26, August 25, 2012 (UTC)

 * No, seems to be fixed now. I guess it was a momentary hiccup, or maybe Master D's edit of the page refreshed it. Thanks anyway.--YamiWheeler (talk • contribs) 20:31, August 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Yea, Sénior M brought a miracle to it. -- i  F  r  e  d  C  a  t  20:32, August 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Like Golden Key said, "Eventually the problem just resolved itself". It seems it is a matter of time that the link will appear blue to me. -- E. G.G.  (My Contributions) 20:35, August 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * I see what happened now. DCAUBatman created "Card Gallery:Monster Rebirth" before he turned the page "Monster Rebirth" into a card article. So when "Card Gallery:Monster Rebirth" was created it had Card Gallery page for: Monster Rebirth. Since "Monster Rebirth" redirected to "Monster Reincarnation" at the time, that was the same as saying Card Gallery page for: Monster Reincarnation, so "Monster Reincarnation" had two gallery pages and its card table was picking up on both of them. -- Deltaneos (talk) 20:43, August 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * I see. Well, at least now we know which actions to avoid to avoid replicating the same problem.--YamiWheeler (talk • contribs) 20:45, August 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Oh right, now I remember something like this happening on the "Heraldic Beast" page after it was first created. So why did this issue resolve itself quickly when "Heroic Retribution Sword" still has its issue? --Golden Key (talk • contribs) 20:54, August 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * Because the causation of the problems is different. They both happened because there were two galleries whose "Card Gallery page for" was pointing to the same card.
 * In this case Card Gallery:Monster Rebirth was associated with "Monster Rebirth and Card Gallery:Monster Reincarnation was associated with "Monster Reincarnation", but since "Monster Rebirth" redirected to "Monster Reincarnation", they were the same thing. Since "Monster Rebirth" no longer redirects to "Monster Reincarnation", their "Card Gallery page for" properties no longer point to the same page.
 * The "Heroic Retribution Sword" problem is a result of an SMW glitch where older versions of pages are stored separately semantically and as a result appear more than once in queries. In this case, it's a version from before the page got renamed, so changing Heroic Revenge Sword to not redirect to "Heroic Retribution Sword" might fix the link. If it was a version after the rename, changing the redirect wouldn't work. But either way, it won't fix the fact that "Card Gallery:Heroic Revenge Sword" still has semantic data. That will be fixed during the "database repair" that was mentioned before. The repair got restarted I think just over two weeks ago and is currently at 68.2986%.
 * -- Deltaneos (talk) 22:55, August 25, 2012 (UTC)


 * This issue has also happened on a few archseries lists. I could fix the templates to prevent it from happening, but would really rather not since the obviously-screwy links serve as a tip-off that something's wrong. 「 ディノ 奴 千？！ 」? · ☎ Dinoguy1000 02:16, August 26, 2012 (UTC)
