message: A reviewer finally got around to GA-reviewing the Final Fantasy article and has placed it on hold for a couple of days, the fixes asked for seem easy so if anyone wants to take a stab at it we can get it up to GA quickly. --PresN 04:21, 2 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Sorry for the late reply, PresN, but I think I can handle this with a little help of course. Greg Jones II 23:46, 4 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: The last main concern is the lack of citations in the "Game screens" section of the article. Currently there are two citations, but I haven't been able to find much else for the exact content that is there. Even if the article passes with what's currently there, this would probably still be an issue at FAC. If anyone can find some reliable sources to cite this it would be very much appreciated.

text: Or would it be possible to cite the Final Fantasy Retrospctive videos?  Not sure if GameTrailers meets the guidelines, but there's a lot of information there. --PresN 21:38, 6 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Huh, never mind, one of the two citations that got put in there already was from there.  --PresN 21:39, 6 November 2007 (UTC)

message: I just created an article for the upcoming game Chocobo's Mysterious Dungeon: Labyrinth of Forgotten Time. Just thought I'd let everyone know. --ZeWrestler  Talk 14:56, 20 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm up for the merger thing, but just need to find out before we merge it - is the title Labyrinth of Forgotten Time already the official English title, and is there an official statement about it? Because if that's not an official title I'm afraid we'll have to go with the Japanese title for awhile and not merge just yet. — Blue。 12:51, 24 November 2007 (UTC)

message: Just to inform you guys, Locations in Spira has been redirected/merged again, apparently without discussion. --Mika1h (talk) 16:27, 28 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Taken care of. These move for silent deletions are evil and malicious! — Blue。 16:44, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

text: And I would like to add that it was reverted because it was redirected without a discussion being made; a previous discussion had no consensus whether to merge or demerge. If there are any objections, please open a new discussion. Thanks. — Blue。 16:57, 28 November 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: That's what I'm thinking. There's probably more information for WotL than the article has now. In fact, it could become a good article in its own right. — Blue。 22:57, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Why don't week look around and see what we find, cause it could potentially bolster the FA nomination if it doesn't. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 23:02, 6 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it can stand on its own, since it's a substantial modification more like FFIIIDS than FFIVA. The references could be bolstered, for example, using the dev podcasts I noted. Axem Titanium (talk) 23:09, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

message: Just a heads-up. List of Final Fantasy media needs improvement.
One of my suggestions is Logos for relevant media. Its use is for identification, and not decoration, as per argument by User:Seancdaug. — Blue。 13:59, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Two things. 1) Where did Sean outline his reasons? It would be great if we could point to an essay of his or something. 2) Logos for which things? Each game or specific projects (e.g. Ivalice Alliance, FF 20th, FNCXIII, etc.) or what? Axem Titanium 21:47, 11 November 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  List of FF Media 

message: Someone changed some of the cast members on Characters of Final Fantasy X and X-2 back to the ones on IMDB and removed some the Japanese voice actors, which they are heard in the Japanese versions of FFX and FFX-2. I think this is pure speculation. I have mostly removed all of the incorrect cast members and changed them back to the correct ones. Also, this article needs copyediting and it is very long. I really need some help on this one. Any comments or objections? Greg Jones II 22:24, 6 December 2007 (UTC)

message: I saw that somebody was trying to run my tool from this project.  However, they set it up wrong so I re-ran the job.  The previous job was ran in late August and had 117 consider dead of a 281 that should be looked after.  Compare with the latest job which has 55 / 131, the job when through the 206 pages with a total link count of 2370 (avg. 11.5 links per page).  —Dispenser (talk) 07:26, 15 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Dead links update 

message: *Characters of Final Fantasy Tactics
*Characters of Final Fantasy Tactics Advance
Especially in the case of Tactics Advance, I wonder if these two topics need their own articles, and perhaps they should be merged into their parent article, and in the case of Tactics could be helpful if any of that information is not already in the main article.

replies: text: No one wants to touch this subject? Ok... Judgesurreal777 (talk) 00:52, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Perhaps not merge. Not at the moment. Both needs to be trimmed down and copyedited. — Blue。 01:04, 31 December 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Question about articles

message: Having failed to gain support from WP:ALBUMS for multy-album articles like MoFFVII, I thought we could try to find a guideline here on WP:FF. If we find consensus, then I thought we could bring it to WP:ANIME and WP:VG, who also tend to use multy-album articles every now and then. This is why I am putting forward 2 propositions:
 In a multy-album article, each Track list should be either in table or list format, according
 to WP:ALBUM standards, based on that Tracklisting's needs. There is no need to have every track
 lists in the article in table or list format, "for consistency".
 Should in an article the tracklists are too long, disrupt the general flow of the artcile, 
 or otherwise compromise its integrety, then it is recommend to use a collapsible tracklist. 
 Inside the collapsible, should be the tracklist, as edited under general WP:ALBUMS guidelines, 
 in list or table format, according to the situation. This should be done in such a way that 
 the un-collapsed tracklist should look no different than if the tracklist was not collapsible 
 at all.
Let me just add that I'm not sure about n1. Maybe we should use all tables or all lists for consistency. I'm not sure about this one, I'm just looking for consensus here.
Thoughts, impressions?
