:They should probably be removed.  I don't like periods in bullet points either... For the very first entry of Pocket Paradise requirements, I entered them exactly as they are in-game, but they should be revised for consistency--[[User:Jimmcq|Jimmcq]] 18:05, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
The following wording would match the Garden Item uses:
 
*Eating 1 Whirlm helps meet the [[Sparrowmint]] Romance requirements.
 
*Eating 2 Whirlms helps meet the [[Fudgehog]] Resident requirements.
 
*Romancing 2 Whirlms helps meet the Sparrowmint Resident requirements.
 
*Whirlms in the garden helps meet the Sparrowmint Appear and Visit requirements.
 
*4 Whirlms in the garden helps meet the Fudgehog Visit requirements.

I think we should stick with the same format, but should we order it Appear, Visit, Romance? --[[User:Dragonc1aw|The Claw]] 15:03, 1 December 2006 (EST)
 
 
 
 
 
Would it be advantagous to add information on what Whirlms can wear here, i'm not sure of a good format, but i figure that the Whirlm is the easiest to test things on. [[User:Quazmo|Quazmo]] 13:56, 7 December 2006 (EST)
 
 
 
 
 
That would be a good thing to consider, right now we are working out details for the [[accessories]] page, and we need to include what a species can wearEither having the list here and a link from Accessories; or vise versa.  Prices and Pictures are also something that would like to be added, we need to settle on a place and format for all of these things. --[[User:Dragonc1aw|The Claw]] 16:29, 7 December 2006 (EST)

I really don't think we need to relist all accessories on every species page... For now I'd just stick with a simple note that says something like: [[Whirlm]]s can't wear accessories in the feet slot.  --[[User:Jimmcq|Jimmcq]] 17:54, 7 December 2006 (EST)
 
 
 
 
 
Maybe just optimal wear then?  The most valuable you can make a pinata? --[[User:Quazmo|Quazmo]] 18:07, 7 December 2006 (EST)
 
 
 
 
 
That would be good information to have.  --[[User:Jimmcq|Jimmcq]] 18:33, 7 December 2006 (EST)
 
 
 
Um, I might as well ask this. But I thought that there can be little info for wild card pinatas, like... a small place to say that Whirlms have bumps on their back when they are a wild card pinata. Just an idea... sorry. ([[User:Crystal frizzlybear|Crystal frizzlybear]] 22:42, 1 March 2007 (EST))
 
 
 
Thats a great idea, a Section for wild card describtion. Go ahead and add it Crystal. [[User:Dragonc1aw|The Claw]] 09:35, 2 March 2007 (EST)
 
 
 
I tried to add an image and text info in that green table thingy, but no.. nothing works. Could I just go to the Wild Card page and copy the Whirlm thing and it's table coding or something? ([[User:Crystal frizzlybear|Crystal frizzlybear]] 18:39, 2 March 2007 (EST))
 
 
 
That is a good idea...  Something as simple section under the last one (Whirlm Uses) that looks like this would be tight:
 
<div class="pii_species_content_container"><div class="pii_species_content">
 
== Whirlm WildCard Attribute ==
 
*Spikes on Back
 
<div style="clear:both;"></div></div></div>
 
But, I also like the idea of getting the info in the green info bar too.~ [[User:Kaya|Kaya]] 19:20, 2 March 2007 (EST)
 
 
 
The green info box is part of a template, lets just add another section to the page like Kaya did above. [[User:Dragonc1aw|The Claw]] 19:37, 2 March 2007 (EST)
 
 
 
Ok, don't call me stupid.. but I am terrible at using speical wikipage coding, but I don't even know if that is addable to the template.. or if a picture is useable on that. ([[User:Crystal frizzlybear|Crystal frizzlybear]] 19:40, 2 March 2007 (EST))
 
 
 
 
 
Alright 3rd times the charm.  I got it working and it on the Whirlm page, I added two lines.  One for the pic and another for descriptionI think it looks alright, you can start working on the other species pages, my brain needs a rest. [[User:Dragonc1aw|The Claw]] 20:20, 2 March 2007 (EST)
 
 
 
very nice!  you beat me to the exact same edit on both the template page and the whirlm page by a few seconds (except i was using "wc_image" instead of "wild_card" for the image)  [[User:Kaya|Kaya]] 20:22, 2 March 2007 (EST)
 
 
 
 
 
What's the best way to take a screen shot on the xbox360?  or can you? [[User:Kaya|Kaya]] 20:50, 2 March 2007 (EST)
 
 
 
The best way is to have a USB video capture card. A more pratical way is to take a pic with a digi cam.  take it at an angle to negate the flash. [[User:Dragonc1aw|The Claw]] 00:01, 3 March 2007 (EST)
 
 
 
Ya, I tried that.  I have a pretty nice camera, but i get lines galore in the picture.  Any good setting tips?  Anyway, i'll try it at an angle too.  Thanks ~ [[User:Kaya|Kaya]] 00:05, 3 March 2007 (EST)
 
 
 
Yeah camera's can pick up the video refreash of the tv which is above 60Hz which we can't see, there will be lines, try it a couple of times and pick the best one out of the bunch. [[User:Dragonc1aw|The Claw]] 00:06, 3 March 2007 (EST)
 

Latest revision as of 11:05, 25 August 2008

Do we want to keep the period at the end of each requirement? We consistently hadn't, in Classic, but if we'd like that to be the new convention from this point on, either works for me. I'm going to leave it in, until Jim chimes in. (Whether we leave it in or out, someone will omit it or add it, so it doesn't really cut down on re-editing -- it's just a matter of looks, at this point, and easy enough to add in on the Classic tab if that's the preference.) --FeralKitty (talk) 16:42, 25 August 2008 (UTC)

My thoughts on this are that bullets don't require periods, and they look strange. Leave them out, imo. –xenocidic (talk) 17:37, 25 August 2008 (UTC)


They should probably be removed. I don't like periods in bullet points either... For the very first entry of Pocket Paradise requirements, I entered them exactly as they are in-game, but they should be revised for consistency. --Jimmcq 18:05, 25 August 2008 (UTC)
