 ** Thanks for clearing it up, although I'm not entirely sure if all of the charts follow that standard. Sometimes "third spawn" is.. really confusing. I'll be running through a few of them in the meantime, though. Thanks for clarifying. :) [[User:Adryk|Addark]] 13:19, 28 March 2008 (CDT)
 *** It's supposed to mean enemy spawn. If in one room you take out one group of enemies entirely and then another one shows up in the same room, that is a second spawn. There is (or was?) a notation guide for these spawn charts but I'm not sure if it defines "a spawn" or not. - [[User:Miraglyth|Miraglyth]] 20:44, 29 March 2008 (CDT)

		+	=== Enemy spawn chart section overhaul ===
		+	I see, I see. [[User:EspioKaos/Sandbox/Enemy_spawn_charts\|An overhaul]] has arrived for you! [/Tom Nook] The recent going-over of the spawn charts article made me get kind of back into wanting to finish up the conversion of the unconverted charts while getting a new style for the article set up. Basically, the new layout will give details on how to read the charts, what the notation means and then a list of missions (each link leading directly to the mission's spawn chart). With the "how to" section, I can't help but feel like I'm missing something, though. It might just be me, but if anyone notices something obvious that I omitted, please feel free to fill in the blanks. Otherwise, any suggestions? - [[User:EspioKaos\|EspioKaos]] 13:26, 2 April 2008 (CDT)
		+	* Suggestions: Order rare monsters list alphabetically. The mission list could be made pretty [[Missions\|like here]] maybe? Could be updated automatically if this pretty stuff was in some sort of template too. Looks good. [[User:Essen\|Essen]] 13:40, 2 April 2008 (CDT)

		+	=== Old template pages ===
		+	I know this is probably asking for a lot, and I really shouldn't be so picky with it. But would somebody be able to compile a list of enemy, weapon, whatever pages that haven't been changed to the new standard template? I'd like to fix those, but really don't know where to start. - [[User:Saiffy\|Saiffy]] 12:35, 12 November 2007 (CST)
		+	* After I made a similar list for the mission articles, I was considering doing the same for weapons, enemies, etc. It will take a boat load of time to do, but it's still possible. I'd suggest in the meantime to not worry about enemies, as I still need to make a few tweaks (in the way of a new infobox like what we're using for the mission articles) to the standard before mass-implementation. As for weapons, for now just select a weapon category from the list and work your way down (or up) checking each link to see if it's been converted over. Actually, I think that might be better than compiling a list since there would probably end up being hundreds of entries on that list. So, I guess enemies would be the major workload for something like this. Anyway, I'll see what I can do when I've got a chance. I'm at work right now, but will have to go shortly as I've got a project coming in very soon that I'll have to get started on. And thanks for your help! We really appreciate it! :D - [[User:EspioKaos\|EspioKaos]] 12:47, 12 November 2007 (CST)
		+	* [[Enemy list]]! Didn't take nearly as long as I thought it would. I still need to work out a few things with the infobox we'll use, so let's hold off on these articles for the time being. ;) - [[User:EspioKaos\|EspioKaos]] 13:16, 12 November 2007 (CST)
		+	* Oh Christ, I did my own one. [[Enemy Article List]]. Still I forgot about Espio's new infobox, so his one is the correct one. - [[User:Mewn\|Mewn]] 13:48, 12 November 2007 (CST)
		+	* While on the topic, the PA pages have been long neglected, and I know we shouldn't be trying to put too much on the table at once, but I made(Or stole) a possible template that I think is much easier to read for each PA [http://psupedia.info/User:Saiffy/Sandbox here]. Now, I don't think each PA having their own page is really neccesary, but I think maybe each weapon type should have their own page for skills, rather than the cluttered mess we currently have. And, of course, anyones free to make a different template, or edit mine. It's not very original, obviously. But I somewhat like the consistently. --[[User:Saiffy\|Saiffy]] 23:58, 12 November 2007 (CST)
		+	** I like the idea of each PA having its own page. ;) Something very similar to what you have would be nice, but I think we should make some adjustments to the table designs to accommodate PA-specific info. (That one tiny table just looks a little funny.) When I have enough time, I'll try to run some ideas through my head. If I come up with anything I like, I'll throw together an article for it. - [[User:EspioKaos\|EspioKaos]] 11:45, 14 November 2007 (CST)
		+	* Seems good to me, although PP cost does increase at level 11 and 21 for all PAs, I think. Might be better to put that under Att./Acc. mods. - [[User:Mewn\|Mewn]] 03:23, 13 November 2007 (CST)
		+
		+	=== User pages ===
		+	Gonna make it quick. A lot of people have been making user pages for themselves, and not contributing at all to the site. It gets annoying having to sort through all the recent edits when theres a bunch of user page edits in. This isn't directed at anyone really, but I doubt anyone who does it even checks RFB or recent edits. It's really not that big a deal, moreso a personal irk, but eh, I thought it can't hurt to bring it up -- [[User:Saiffy\|Saiffy]] 03:05, 6 August 2007 (BST)
		+	* They could always be seperated from the main wiki, much like EspioKaos mentioned about having offline.psupedia, maybe there could be a matchup.psupedia? could work for guilds/teams. Guild wars has started doing this with their wikis and guilds. [http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Category:All_guilds Guild list] & [http://wiki.guildwars.com/wiki/Guild:A_Group_Of_Small_Girls Guild example] --[[User:JubeiSaotome\|JubeiSaotome]] 22:29, 28 December 2007 (CST)
		+	** It almost takes no effort to set up your own site just to recruit for your guild or clan or brag about elitist nonsense or whatever, and it does bug me to see people using PSUP for this purpose, especially when they have to intention of contributing to the site. This [[User:Ace\|Ace]] guy for example. - [[User:Sekani\|Sekani]] 12:03, 6 March 2008 (CST)
		+	*** Really i would help in anyway i can with the site...however i just really dont have the time to work on finding the things yall need for the site, really all i do is just try to have fun but if i ever do find anything of useful knowledge i will help by putting it up for us, sorry a noob here :-) [[User:Twilights Keeper\|Twilights Keeper]] 12:42, 13 March 2008 (CDT)

		+	=== Spoiler hide / unhide plugin ===
		+	Are there any MediaWiki plugins for hiding and unhiding information with a button or switch? This would be useful for character and story related pages. This way we could have spoilers and they could only be revealed if the reader wanted it spoiled or if they already knew what happened. --[[User:JubeiSaotome\|JubeiSaotome]] 21:43, 25 December 2007 (CST)
		+	* The one time I've needed to hide a spoiler (which wasn't really, but doesn't hurt to play it safe with this many whiners about) I've used <nowiki><font color="white"></nowiki> to hide the relevant text. It wouldn't be a plugin or clickable element, but if there was any significant need for regular spoiler hiding, a simple quick solution would be to use <nowiki>{{Spoiler}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{EndSpoiler}}</nowiki> templates to repeat the above, the latter of course being <nowiki></font></nowiki>. - [[User:Miraglyth\|Miraglyth]] 08:29, 26 December 2007 (CST)
		+
		+	=== Video embeds ===
		+	Wow, this is coming off as IDEA after IDEA. But Video could be pretty useful, especially on pages such as; Individual Photon Arts pages, Rare monster sightings, Guides and other pages with demonstrations. All you'd need is to allow for the embed tag for video or whatever. Anyway, thought I'd throw the idea out there. --[[User:JubeiSaotome\|JubeiSaotome]] 22:25, 28 December 2007 (CST)
		+	* I'm almost completely certain that the wiki system doesn't allow for such tags to function, lest they be used maliciously by unscrupulous editors. But, I may be wrong. --[[User:Qwerty\|Qwerty]] 23:23, 8 January 2008 (CST)
		+	* There's no way to embed video in a wiki at this time. I just finished running around the mediawiki main site, and they're trying to figure out how to make it work. Only suggestion I can offer is linking a youtube video in the relevant articles for now.<br/>--[[User:Kietrinia\|Kit]] 10:33, 19 January 2008 (CST)

		+
		+	=== Site overhaul ===
		+	Correct me if I'm out of line. But I think the site is getting ready for an overhaul. May aswell, it's a new version of the game. Here's some things / projects I have in mind to improve the place;
		+	* Mission center - A hub page for missions; Online, Offline, Story mode, Extra mode & ETC.
		+	** Mission strategies - Not for online free missions, because they are a sinch. Moreover for Network Story Missions, which seem to annoy people to no end. These pages could include mission data, points and rewards. I don't see a point in having 2 pages for one mission. That would be giving the users an extra step (Or more finding the page).
		+	* Main Page / Navigation - Self explanitory, the navigation is out of date and needs links to AoI related changes, story missions, monster pokedex and ETC.
		+	** Main Page / Picture of the day/week - Wasn't this going to be implimented at some point? I don't see why it shouldn't be done, it will keep people coming back to see new images. This could even allow for image contests, improving site hits.
		+	* Guides section - There's a category for guides, this MAY overlap with strategies within the mission center idea, but all it would need in that case would be links to each story mission. Aside from that, guides could range from; PM builds, Synth guides, Strategies for fast leveling and so forth.
		+
		+	Comments? --[[User:JubeiSaotome\|JubeiSaotome]] 04:03, 4 December 2007 (CST)
		+
		+	* I'll go through the points one-by-one:
		+	** Mission center - we could use one, certainly, all we have right now are temporary pages. We could use pages for lobbies as well, though they might be a bit sparse.
		+	** Mission strategies - agree, but I feel they should be links to another article (specifically marked as a guide) or an external link to another site.
		+	** Main Page Navigation - yes, this does need an overhaul, and that's been the general consensus for some time. No-one has really designed anything satisfactory though. Design isn't my forte, so if you have any ideas I'll leave it to you.
		+	** PotD/W - I think it's unnecessary, it's frivolous and nowhere near being objective information. If it gets support it can be done, but I'm just going to flat-out state that I will not be involved with it, since I have more important things to do on the site.
		+	** Guides - I wouldn't be opposed to having more guides as I did make special provision for them, but they have to be written, we can't just pull these things out of our asses (or from other sites). See above comment about more important things. - [[User:Mewn\|Mewn]] 10:38, 4 December 2007 (CST)
		+	* My thoughts:
		+	** I'd like to come up with a more effective way of displaying all of the game's missions on one index page to have linked out to the individual articles. Ultimately, this would replace our current mission page.
		+	** Strategies could be put in pages such as ''Illuminus Ambition 2 (guide)'' and similarly indexed in the guides section.
		+	** I've been trying to think of a new main page navigation system, but can't seem to come up with something I like. One idea I had completely replaces the sidebar with our navigation links. Of course, all of our categories would have to be thinned down from what we have now. Wouldn't be a problem, as far as I see it. (It could use it, to be honest.)
		+	** Picture of the day/week. Like Mewn said, it'd be an unnecessary addition. I'd only see it as something else for us to try to keep up with updating, taking away from valuable time we could put to use for more important features.
		+	** Guides and strategies would do well lumped together. - [[User:EspioKaos\|EspioKaos]] 11:30, 4 December 2007 (CST)
		+
		+	Another main page idea I had was;
		+	* New missions & Locations - The recent hill of spores set has been a bitch for common players to find, why not have something like this on the main page?--[[User:JubeiSaotome\|JubeiSaotome]] 00:14, 15 December 2007 (CST)
		+	** The details on things like where to find new missions used to go in the [[Updates]] page, but then I fell behind on that and the slack never got picked up. - [[User:Miraglyth\|Miraglyth]] 01:22, 15 December 2007 (CST)
		+	*** I picked up where you left off; only, I haven't been making the tables like you used to that show where to go to get to each mission. (The only thing I haven't added is yesterday's update, which I'm going to get to soon.) Of course, now with individual mission articles linked to in the updates, these tell you exactly where to go. But, I suppose for the sake of the lazy people who don't want to click an extra link, I can use the table format in my next update. - [[User:EspioKaos\|EspioKaos]] 09:43, 15 December 2007 (CST)
		+	**** Sorry, I didn't mean to make it sound like nobody had updated the page because that's clearly not the case :P - I'd just meant that the quick-find "Where to go" wasn't being done anymore. But like you say, it shouldn't be much of an issue, especially once navigation with missions becomes simpler. - [[User:Miraglyth\|Miraglyth]] 15:46, 15 December 2007 (CST)
		+	***** It's no problem. :) Actually, this brings up something that you've mentioned many times before: an overhaul of the updates section. It's gotten huge (like Xbox). I'd like to go back over each update and redo everything to pretty things up some. I was thinking we could either make a page for each content update (Update_002, Update_034, etc.) or sort them out by months. Of course, we'd still keep everything cataloged on one page; perhaps sorted by months there. Ah, just some ideas to toss about for a later project. - [[User:EspioKaos\|EspioKaos]] 17:15, 15 December 2007 (CST)
		+	****** That's a decent idea, provided it had a navigation table template to go with it. Maybe a "to be released" list or a list of japanese updates also? --[[User:JubeiSaotome\|JubeiSaotome]] 02:28, 16 December 2007 (CST)
		+	******* JP updates would require much digging through their official site's now-messy log of updates, maintenances, events and notices. That said, a long-overdue re-standardisation of our updates page would be much desired. As for splitting the article... by month would be my preferred of the suggestion because per update results in many small articles. Perhaps take it a step further and split them by quarter? - [[User:Miraglyth\|Miraglyth]] 08:37, 22 December 2007 (CST)
		+	* With a new sidebar navigation list in place, would it be out of place to have more social data on the front page? Like new missions OR most populated lobbies? --[[User:JubeiSaotome\|JubeiSaotome]] 21:43, 25 December 2007 (CST)
		+	** I like the idea. I think it'd be nice to have a little more detailed info directly on the front page stating what new missions have just been released or what special events are going on or will be happening in the near future. More than what we've got with the news box thinger, at least. - [[User:EspioKaos\|EspioKaos]] 22:21, 25 December 2007 (CST)
		+	* Might as well post a few suggestions here for the sake of putting them into this discussion.
