Talk:List of terms in Xenosaga

message: Hey, the pictures seem to be screwing up the page format a bit.  Perhaps we could have an article dedicated to pictures?  At the bottom of each section, if there is a picture/group of pictures, we could create an article for that so those large spaces don't appear.  I'm not really an expert on pics and wiki, so I don't want to dig any deeper into this issue ^_^

message: I just wanted to let everyone know that there is a difference between the Zohar and the Zoar incident. Deckiller 01:31, 14 January 2006 (UTC)

message: Wilhelm says U-do is God, where did anyone find this said about chaos too? (see u-do article)
:chaos is Anima, which is also referred to as God.  The Anima Vessels, which are called half of chaos' body are also called the power of God and the body of God both in the database and various times in the script by both Wilhelm and other characters.  Database entries to check are chaos, Zarathustra, and Anima Vessel.(PhoenixStrike 07:59, 18 October 2006 (UTC)

message: eFolks, it's great that everybody's adding content and attempting to wikify their articles, but please, before you hit that big shiny Submit button, take a look at the preview and click on some of the wiki-links you've created.  Make sure they go where you meant for them to go - I've already cleaned up a couple of Shion links that redirected to the Shion in the King of Fighters universe, for example.  Also, if you're wiki-linking to a page containing a list of terms/list of characters/list of whatever, you can make the link take the user DIRECTLY to the appropriate section by using the # sign.  Example follows:
Albedo instead of Albedo will take the user to the character from Xenosaga instead of the definition of "the measure of reflectivity of a surface or body".   Syntax is substituted text.    teh TK 04:33, 24 February 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  A plea for sanity 

message: Has anyone seen the commercial for the Da Vinci Code movie with a woman singing what sounds an awful lot like the Song of Nephilim? Is this a real song? If so, it should be mentioned. If not, methinks the movie creators are plagarizing... Rockhound 17:36, 16 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah, I just heard the song being played in a commercial for the movie. It's probably some old orchestra song written before copyrights were invented.  ⇒  JarlaxleArtemis 03:25, 18 May 2006 (UTC)
thread_title:  Da Vinci Code Movie using Song of Nephilim? 

message: "At the start menu of Episode II, E.S. Asher can be seen being assemble and in mid-game Zebulun, technicians assemble various components around the spine shaped Vessel of Anima in an anti-gravity chamber."
Is there a grammatical problem here or am I just not it reading correctly?  MS Word couldn't find anything wrong with it, but it seems like the tenses, or something else, are creating the confusion.

thread_title:  Confusing sentence 

message: Ok, I've changed this twice, because there is literally not one reference in the games to U-DO producing the Song of Nephilim.  Only the SON space station is ever said to produce the Song wave.
:Every time U-DO shows up, the song plays.  ⇒  JarlaxleArtemis 01:39, 30 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: That isn't so in Episode 3. There is a sort of connection, though. --melodiester 03:49, 30 August 2006 (UTC)

message: It's alright to post images that that are blatantly stolen directly from the main site or have a 3rd party logo on it but wrong to use images that come from fankit, even when it's written in the comments that the image is copyrighted and to who it is?

thread_title:  So ... 

message: It seems that due to a lack of motivation of the original authors, this resulting mess was cleaned up with a copy/paste job to wikia.  Many links on the Xenosaga page to List_of_terms_in_Xenosaga are now mere redirects to the original page - which does not help at all when attempting to understand the numerous acronyms and terms exclusive to the game.
I believe that a simple solution would be to take the list of terms here, put them onto wiktionary, and have all the links on the original wikipedia article of Xenosaga goto the wikitionary.  The wikia for Xenosaga is a complete mess requiring massive cleanup, and would result in the page containing numerous external links, which is frowned upon.
In the meantime, I think that it might be best to tag this redirect with Template:Interwiki_redirect, in order to notify people like myself who are trying to understand all the Xenosaga references in web forums and not having a clue what they mean.

replies: text: , This page was discussed in numerous deletion debates, and the last decision was made to redirect to the Xenosaga article.  I'm not really sure which transwiki you want this page to have a redirect to, either.  Wikipedia is an encyclopedia, not a collection of links, so it seems to me that this redirect should stay the way it is for now (and no pages currently use the  template as of now, so I'm hesitant to make this the first).  You might consider updating the Xenosaga article to remove links of the terms you are talking about to avoid confusion, and you could consider discussing an external link at the bottom of the page to a website that describes such terms.  If you wish, you can take issue with the deletion decision of this page at WP:DRV.  Please let me know if you have questions.  --CapitalR (talk) 16:46, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Understood. No, I would not like an undeletion, the list is a cleanup nightmare. After a bit of brainstorming, I came up with an alternative to replace the confusing links on the Xenosaga Pages.  I'm proposing using footnotes on the terms to direct the reader to the proper wikia site. Is this proper protocol? And if so, do you know of any examples?  Please let me know. --Markozeta (talk) 18:19, 30 April 2008 (UTC)
