Hello! I was wondering if you could stop by the SEIWA discord server when you have a moment. We have somethings we want to ask you, and a user's talk page might not be the best place for some of it.

If Discord is out of the question, feel free to email me at bud0011@gmail.com.

Thank you, and have a nice day.

{{Translation|'''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'''|大乱闘スマッシュブラザーズ SPECIAL|Dairantō Sumasshu Burazāzu Supesharu|Great Fray Smash Brothers Special}} is a fighting game for the Nintendo Switch and the '''5'''th game ('''6'''th if ''Super Smash Bros.'' for Wii U and ''Super Smash Bros.'' for Nintendo 3DS are counted as two games) in the ''Super Smash Bros.'' series. It was released on December 7th, 2018 to universal acclaim.

==''Dragon Quest'' media in ''Super Smash Bros.''==
At E3 2019, the Heroes of [[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|XI]], [[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|III]], [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|IV]], and [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|VIII]] were announced as one character simply called the [[Hero (Super Smash Bros.)|Hero]], announced as the 3rd DLC character and the 2nd character that is part of the Fighters Pass. The character itself was released on July 30th, 2019.

Alongside the Hero is a stage named [[Yggdrasil's Altar]]. The players fight on a large, gray platform that passes by the tree, which can be seen in the background; [[Slime]]s and Tockles cameo on the stage as well, and Cetacea can be seen flying in the background. The stage passes by other locations as well. Occasionally, treasure chests appear on the stage, and attacking them will yield an item; however, a [[Mimic]] will occasionally appear instead, and defeating it yields an item as a reward. Two tracks from each of the four games represented by the different Heroes appear on the stage as well, and the ending to the main ''[[Dragon Quest (series)|Dragon Quest]]'' theme serves as the victory theme for the series.

The Spirits from the ''Dragon Quest'' series include the Slime, [[Dracky]], [[Golem]], [[Liquid metal slime]], [[Great sabrecub]], Cetacea, and the main party from ''Dragon Quest XI'' ([[Hendrik]], [[Sylvando]], [[Erik]], [[Jade]], [[Rab]], [[Veronica (Dragon Quest XI)|Veronica]] and [[Serena (Dragon Quest XI)|Serena]], with the Slime and Great sabrecub spirits being able to be enhanced into [[King slime]] and [[Great sabrecat]], respectively. A Spirit for the [[Tockle]]s can be unlocked with save data from ''Dragon Quest XI S'' (either from the demo or the full game). Additionally, Veronica, the [[Erdrick Equipment]], the [[Martial Artist]] class, and Slime all appear as costumes for the Mii Fighters, with Veronica and the Erdrick Equipment appearing as costumes for the Mii Swordfighter, the Martial Artist appearing as a costume for the Mii Brawler, and the Slime appearing as a hat. Notably, the Slime hat is unique in that it possesses motion physics, moving around when the Mii does as well.

==Trivia==
*''Dragon Quest'' is the second Square Enix franchise to be represented in ''Super Smash Bros.'', the first being ''Final Fantasy''.
*The [[Mark of Erdrick]] acts as the series symbol for ''Dragon Quest'', and the ending portion of the series' famous [[overture]] acts as the victory theme.
*''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' marks the first time any main series ''Dragon Quest'' character has appeared in a fighting game.
**Whilst Dai from ''[[Dragon Quest: Dai no Daibouken]]'' appeared in ''Jump Force'', another crossover fighting game, he wasn't in any of the main series ''Dragon Quest'' games at all.
*This is the first time since the ''[[Itadaki Street (series)|Itadaki Street]]'' series that ''Dragon Quest'' crossed over with the ''Super Mario'' and ''Final Fantasy'' franchises and the first time since ''[[Captain N: The Game Master]]'' that it crossed over with various other video game properties.
*A ''Dragon Quest'' character had been requested for ''Smash'' for some time, but series creator Masahiro Sakurai had long considered it impossible. Sakurai created a proposal for [[Square Enix]], with some encouragement from [[Nintendo]], "passionately" expressing how he wished to use the Hero; though Sakurai would have agreed to the inclusion of [[Slime]] had Square denied him the rights to the Hero, he felt the Hero offered more options, even knowing the hurdles that would come with their inclusion. To his surprise, Square Enix agreed almost immediately, as they had appreciated Sakurai's passion and felt ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' was similar to ''[[Dragon Quest XI: Echoes of an Elusive Age|Dragon Quest XI S]]'' as a game that brings together elements from previous games into one. According to [[Yūji Horii]], within Square Enix, there were restrictions that prevented certain ''Dragon Quest'' protagonists from encountering each other, but ''Super Smash Bros. Ultimate'' was given special exception in order to have the different Heroes as alternate character costumes, as the restrictions have become less strict over time, especially with the mobile title ''[[Dragon Quest Rivals]]'', and knowing the popularity of ''Smash'', he wanted the Hero to join. Only the Heroes from ''[[Hero (Dragon Quest XI)|XI]]'' and ''[[Hero (Dragon Quest III)|III]]'' were originally decided for ''Smash'' but Horii allowed two more to be added, and [[Hero (Dragon Quest VIII)|the Hero from ''VIII'']] was added due to popularity overseas as one of the main factor, while [[Hero (Dragon Quest IV)|the Hero from ''IV'']] was added due to [[Hero (Dragon Quest V)|the Hero from ''V'']] not using a sword and ultimately being chosen over [[Hero (Dragon Quest)|the Hero from ''Dragon Quest'']].<ref>https://www.siliconera.com/2019/09/26/masahiro-sakurai-and-yuji-horii-discuss-smash-ultimates-hero-dlc-director-philosophy-and-more/</ref>

Not to step on anybody's toes, but wouldn't it be interesting and iconic to have the Slime in this wikia's logo? [[User:SpongeBathBill|SpongeBathBill]] 19:22, 21 February 2009 (UTC)

genau dragon quest ist super!

==Hello==
Your spoiler and navigation templates coding is straightly ripped from Final Fantasy Wikia. Least you could do is refer the history of such templates from the Final Fantasy Wiki to credit the people who worked on them. - [[User:Henryacores|'''Henry''']][[User Talk: Henryacores|'''acores''']][http://finalfantasy.wikia.com/wiki/User:Henryacores/The_Reviews '''^'''] 22:07, November 4, 2009 (UTC)
:If that's the case then I might go and try to tweak those templates some (even though I hardly ever see the spoiler tag since the front page of this wiki gives a spoiler warning). I'll make note of this in the template pages for now, but are you certain the templates originated from Final Fantasy Wiki? When something is borrowed once it doesn't take long for it to get around. Just sayin'. --[[User:PantheonSasuke|PantheonSasuke]] 23:49, November 4, 2009 (UTC)

Who has deleted everything?! T_T

==DQ News==
We might wanna hold off on praising the number of articles we have, especially when the vast majority of said articles are duplicates, ehheh heh... ehh... --[[User:PantheonSasuke|PantheonSasuke]] 00:15, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

I fixed it. ha ha. --[[User:Pagoda|Pagoda]] 05:16, March 11, 2010 (UTC)

==Playable Characters Template==

Does we need to make a distinction between playable characters and non-playable characters in each Dragon Quest series characters Template?[[Special:Contributions/151.95.106.12|151.95.106.12]] 20:03, September 29, 2010 (UTC)

== Recent Edit ==

The most recent edit here, as of this talk edit, placed this bit of text on the main page.

<pre>ja:DRAGON QUEST Wiki de: es: </pre>

... along with a [[:File:Sancho.png|picture of Sancho]]. The text was given links pertaining to the '''ja:DRAGON QUEST''', the '''de:''', and the '''es:''', which from what I see, looks like language options (Japanese, Deutsch (sp), English), but I don't think this wiki has those kind of options on it.

So... was there purpose to this edit? Or should it be regarded as gibberish and rolled back? --[[User:PantheonSasuke|PantheonSasuke]] 02:46, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Unless there's going to be a translation of the wiki, it should be removed. Moreover, the home page should be locked to all but administrators to cut down on vandalism. This is how it is done on other wikis and it is a good idea. Otherwise, you'll have what happened to another wiki that shall remain unnamed that had on its homepage '''Kill all of the (insert pejorative here)'''. --[[User:Shinitenshi|Shinitenshi]] 03:02, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

== Homepage Redesign ==

The homepage has been redesigned! I went ahead and took a stab at creating something that is dynamic and interesting based off of the old Dragon Quest Wiki and the existing homepage. Please feel free to give comments and feedback as I am not married to anything about it. Here are a few points to note...

* The Dragon Quest News is pulled from the Dragon's Den RSS feed. I'm sure there is a better way to style it, but I didn't go that far yet.
* I don't have a schedule for how often the featured video will be updated yet.
* I'm not genius when it comes to colors and designs. It would be great if we could find someone to do some design/image work for the wiki. Woodus was generous enough to make the logo. It would be nice to come up with a good color scheme so that everything looks a bit more polished. It can really make the difference when visitors come to the homepage.
--[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 16:00, 2 November 2010 (CDT)

== Independent Wikis ==

Well now that you are an independent wiki, you'll find out how difficult it is to keep afloat and grow beyond the dedicated core members. I own operate [http://www.wikirby.info/wiki/Kirby_Wiki WiKirby] and work in [http://niwanetwork.org/ NIWA (Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance)]. We're more than a simple link exchange, sometimes you might need assistance on things beyond the experience of your members. NIWA is meant to bring independent Nintendo wiki editors, staff, and developers together and help one another grow and implement the tools they want. If you guys want to be a part of that, we'll be glad to have a Dragon Quest wiki in. Feel free to browse the wikis listed and you'll see how tight our organization has become. Members of NIWA often contribute to several wikis in the alliance.

Anyway, I recommend reading the [http://www.niwanetwork.org/about.html NIWA About page] to get an understanding of what it is. The forums are there if you want to meet other members, but I hope to hear from people here too. [[User:Axiomist|Axiomist]] 23:56, 24 November 2010 (CST)

Axiomist, my apologies for allowing this to go unanswered for so long. Life happens as I am sure you are aware. I will begin to stir the discussion again on this topic. To be honest, NIWA was something that impressed me when it was founded a year ago. It seems like a really good idea among groups who share some common goals. Thank you for taking the time to share some informative links. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 23:41, 12 January 2011 (CST)

==Perhaps it's me... but...==
It feels like Dragon Quest Wiki is slower to load. Is it because of the recent spam that has appeared in the Wiki? --[[User talk:Vzing|V]]<s>[[User:Vzing|7]]</s>[[User talk:Vzing|ing]] 22:36, 30 August 2011 (CDT)

==Error in the main page==

== SEIWA Update ==

Hey everyone, SEIWA has a new member, so I was wondering a few things:
* could someone add them to the main page?
* please head on over and give them a congrats. [http://seiwanetwork.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=56 Here is the link].
* please update your news thread when you get a chance.

==SEIWA==
Hi, I am TheFifteenthMember, an editor from the KHWiki. In our recent roundtable meeting, we agreed that SEIWA's status is practically dead and inactive so we proposed that the five members of SEIWA disband and continue on as independent sites. Former SEIWA members can then be linked to each other as affiliates. We'd like to know the Dragon Quest Wiki's thoughts on the matter; do you agree with this plan? [[User:TheFifteenthMember|TheFifteenthMember]] ([[User talk:TheFifteenthMember|talk]]) 18:27, 13 September 2014 (CDT)

:Hey guys, I'm KeybladeSpyMaster, editor at the ''Kingdom Hearts'' Wiki. A fuller discussion resulted in the revival, rather than disbandment, of the Square Enix Independent Wiki Alliance. I'm really trying to get SEIWA back up, and we'd love to see it happen. However, we need your help. We need your input on how to get this done. I've started a [http://seiwanetwork.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1875 forum here], which I hope you guys will get involved with. As I state in that forum, I'd especially love the people who were originally involved with SEIWA to come, so if you know any of them, please ask them to return if only to give us direction. Thanks!

== merge welcome to Join the Quest section ==

Would it be okay to merge the welcome message and introductory paragraphs and spoiler warning down to the Join the Quest section? This would give the DQI to DQX image links more visibility, keeping them above the fold on phones and other small screens. It would also improve accessibility, so that screen readers wouldn't have to speak all that text before finally getting to the links. [[User:Rigel Kent|Rigel Kent]] ([[User talk:Rigel Kent|talk]]) 22:18, 28 November 2015 (CST)

I made an attempt to merge them together. I agree it was a bit wordy at the top. Take a look and feel free to make addition modifications. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] ([[User talk:FlyingRagnar|talk]]) 13:59, 29 November 2015 (CST)

== The chaos on FANDOM ==

So as wikia visitors may know, something terrible happened at the dragon quest sister wiki. A user known as Mooshry ruined the wiki moving and editing pages untill they were irrecognizable. That user was my brother, and i am disgusted and offended by his actions. if you see a user with that name here, ban him INSTANTLY.
--[[User:Dqfan1993|Dqfan1993]] ([[User talk:Dqfan1993|talk]]) 19:28, 6 August 2018 (EDT)
:Saw that. I'm far from being a Wikia lover, so this was quite pleasant to see, nevertheless this is very disrespectful for the users on the other wiki. (The trouble seems over now, that's good.)
--[[User:Tigali|Tigali]] ([[User talk:Tigali|talk]]) 06:50, 7 August 2018 (EDT)

== SEIWA Discord Server ==

Hello everyone. I'm writing to let you know, I set up a private server for SEIWA members and if any staff of the wiki would like to join to represent it, please contact me at tacopill#1781. Thank you, [[User:TacoBud|TacoBud]] ([[User talk:TacoBud|talk]]) 18:49, 15 September 2019 (EDT)
:Could you post the invite by chance? I've been trying to contact you but discord isn't bringing up your user name.([[User:Follower of Light|Follower of Light]] ([[User talk:Follower of Light|talk]]) 17:30, 17 September 2019 (EDT))
::[https://discord.gg/mGcvBq Sure]. [[User:TacoBud|TacoBud]] ([[User talk:TacoBud|talk]]) 08:32, 19 September 2019 (EDT)
::It's saying the invite is invalid, but no reason is given--damn furfag programmers. While on the subject of SEIWA though, what are the current plans for the operation? I don't have many resources for Mana, FF, SaGa, and so forth to data dive on so I probably won't be able to go in to as much detail as I can with DQ but I still want to help. One idea I have is to use the main SEIWA page as developer directory to keep track of staff members and to see who has worked on what, including some interview details and so forth if such is available. Kind of like a specific version of moby games, but with more insight provided into the company culture that produces these titles.([[User:Follower of Light|Follower of Light]] ([[User talk:Follower of Light|talk]]) 13:39, 20 September 2019 (EDT))
:::[https://discord.gg/g7Uhqym New Invite]. We are actually in the middle of discussing a full revamp/reboot of it. Details aren't finalized, so I'm not going to post them in a public area.

== Recent Edit ==

The most recent edit here, as of this talk edit, placed this bit of text on the main page.

<pre>ja:DRAGON QUEST Wiki de: es: </pre>

... along with a [[:File:Sancho.png|picture of Sancho]]. The text was given links pertaining to the '''ja:DRAGON QUEST''', the '''de:''', and the '''es:''', which from what I see, looks like language options (Japanese, Deutsch (sp), English), but I don't think this wiki has those kind of options on it.

So... was there purpose to this edit? Or should it be regarded as gibberish and rolled back? --[[User:PantheonSasuke|PantheonSasuke]] 02:46, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Unless there's going to be a translation of the wiki, it should be removed. Moreover, the home page should be locked to all but administrators to cut down on vandalism. This is how it is done on other wikis and it is a good idea. Otherwise, you'll have what happened to another wiki that shall remain unnamed that had on its homepage '''Kill all of the (insert pejorative here)'''. --[[User:Shinitenshi|Shinitenshi]] 03:02, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

== Homepage Redesign ==

The homepage has been redesigned! I went ahead and took a stab at creating something that is dynamic and interesting based off of the old Dragon Quest Wiki and the existing homepage. Please feel free to give comments and feedback as I am not married to anything about it. Here are a few points to note...

* The Dragon Quest News is pulled from the Dragon's Den RSS feed. I'm sure there is a better way to style it, but I didn't go that far yet.
* I don't have a schedule for how often the featured video will be updated yet.
* I'm not genius when it comes to colors and designs. It would be great if we could find someone to do some design/image work for the wiki. Woodus was generous enough to make the logo. It would be nice to come up with a good color scheme so that everything looks a bit more polished. It can really make the difference when visitors come to the homepage.

== Independent Wikis ==

Well now that you are an independent wiki, you'll find out how difficult it is to keep afloat and grow beyond the dedicated core members. I own operate [http://www.wikirby.info/wiki/Kirby_Wiki WiKirby] and work in [http://niwanetwork.org/ NIWA (Nintendo Independent Wiki Alliance)]. We're more than a simple link exchange, sometimes you might need assistance on things beyond the experience of your members. NIWA is meant to bring independent Nintendo wiki editors, staff, and developers together and help one another grow and implement the tools they want. If you guys want to be a part of that, we'll be glad to have a Dragon Quest wiki in. Feel free to browse the wikis listed and you'll see how tight our organization has become. Members of NIWA often contribute to several wikis in the alliance.

Anyway, I recommend reading the [http://www.niwanetwork.org/about.html NIWA About page] to get an understanding of what it is. The forums are there if you want to meet other members, but I hope to hear from people here too. [[User:Axiomist|Axiomist]] 23:56, 24 November 2010 (CST)

Hi, I am TheFifteenthMember, an editor from the KHWiki. In our recent roundtable meeting, we agreed that SEIWA's status is practically dead and inactive so we proposed that the five members of SEIWA disband and continue on as independent sites. Former SEIWA members can then be linked to each other as affiliates. We'd like to know the Dragon Quest Wiki's thoughts on the matter; do you agree with this plan?

I've started a [http://seiwanetwork.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1875 forum here], which I hope you guys will get involved with.

== merge welcome to Join the Quest section ==

Would it be okay to merge the welcome message and introductory paragraphs and spoiler warning down to the Join the Quest section?

It would also improve accessibility, so that screen readers wouldn't have to speak all that text before finally getting to the links.

So as wikia visitors may know, something terrible happened at the dragon quest sister wiki. A user known as Mooshry ruined the wiki moving and editing pages untill they were irrecognizable.

I don't have many resources for Mana, FF, SaGa, and so forth to data dive on so I probably won't be able to go in to as much detail as I can with DQ but I still want to help. One idea I have is to use the main SEIWA page as developer directory to keep track of staff members and to see who has worked on what, including some interview details and so forth if such is available. Kind of like a specific version of moby games, but with more insight provided into the company culture that produces these titles.([[User:Follower of Light|Follower of Light]] ([[User talk:Follower of Light|talk]]) 13:39, 20 September 2019 (EDT))

Hi, the SEIWA link (the visual link, not the link on the image) should link to http://seiwanetwork.org, not http://www.seiwanetwork.org. Thanks, [[User:Randomno|Randomno]] 11:56, 30 March 2012 (CDT)

==SEIWA==
Hi, I am TheFifteenthMember, an editor from the KHWiki. In our recent roundtable meeting, we agreed that SEIWA's status is practically dead and inactive so we proposed that the five members of SEIWA disband and continue on as independent sites. Former SEIWA members can then be linked to each other as affiliates. We'd like to know the Dragon Quest Wiki's thoughts on the matter; do you agree with this plan? [[User:TheFifteenthMember|TheFifteenthMember]] ([[User talk:TheFifteenthMember|talk]]) 18:27, 13 September 2014 (CDT)

:Hey guys, I'm KeybladeSpyMaster, editor at the ''Kingdom Hearts'' Wiki. A fuller discussion resulted in the revival, rather than disbandment, of the Square Enix Independent Wiki Alliance. I'm really trying to get SEIWA back up, and we'd love to see it happen. However, we need your help. We need your input on how to get this done. I've started a [http://seiwanetwork.org/forums/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=1875 forum here], which I hope you guys will get involved with. As I state in that forum, I'd especially love the people who were originally involved with SEIWA to come, so if you know any of them, please ask them to return if only to give us direction. Thanks!

== merge welcome to Join the Quest section ==

Would it be okay to merge the welcome message and introductory paragraphs and spoiler warning down to the Join the Quest section? This would give the DQI to DQX image links more visibility, keeping them above the fold on phones and other small screens. It would also improve accessibility, so that screen readers wouldn't have to speak all that text before finally getting to the links. [[User:Rigel Kent|Rigel Kent]] ([[User talk:Rigel Kent|talk]]) 22:18, 28 November 2015 (CST)

I made an attempt to merge them together. I agree it was a bit wordy at the top. Take a look and feel free to make addition modifications. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] ([[User talk:FlyingRagnar|talk]]) 13:59, 29 November 2015 (CST)

== The chaos on FANDOM ==

So as wikia visitors may know, something terrible happened at the dragon quest sister wiki. A user known as Mooshry ruined the wiki moving and editing pages untill they were irrecognizable. That user was my brother, and i am disgusted and offended by his actions. if you see a user with that name here, ban him INSTANTLY.
--[[User:Dqfan1993|Dqfan1993]] ([[User talk:Dqfan1993|talk]]) 19:28, 6 August 2018 (EDT)

==SEIWA==
Bluer (admin on Square Wiki) apparently is not interested in joining the Alliance, as you can see on [http://square.wikia.com/wiki/User_talk:Icysugarspike#Wiki_Alliance my talk page] there. Vzing was asking about this as well. [[User:Icysugarspike|Sir ISS]] 11:13, 2 January 2012 (CST)

== Re: New Role ==

Thanks, man, for the designation and well-wishing. Dunno if you got my PM on the boards, but I've been having difficulty getting to some sites on both a regularly basis and, well, ever. The wiki here seems to fall into the former. I have access now, but later I probably won't be able to get to it.

Hope your holidays and New Year went well, man. I'll try to do some things before my connection here fizzles again. --[[User:PantheonSasuke|PantheonSasuke]] 23:36, 10 January 2012 (CST)

I've reuploaded the Dragon Quest VIII sprites, in the new format. I'll go re-upload Dragon Quest IX sprites next, but of course, not for a while.

For some reason, the wiki loads pages fine...until I decide to upload an image. Then, it bogs down to the point that I get so frustrated, I go elsewhere. No other site runs as slow as this one. It takes an eternity for a page to load. This is the reason why I haven't been very active in the last week or so. I still have many images to share, but I find myself giving up in desperation. I know you've been having trouble getting the wiki running smoothly, and was wondering if anyone else has been having a similar problem? Thanks. [[User:Icysugarspike|Sir ISS]] 07:59, 16 February 2012 (CST)

Besides, spending money on this site (which is just a labor of love, really) would mean less $$$ for games! :) Nobody would expect you to do that, certainly not me. Anyway, playing my first DQM game. Interesting diversion from the main series, I think. Enjoying it so far. Perhaps, I can help with DQM stuff now that I understand them a bit more (scouting, etc.). Take care.

Of course, this is out of the question, but wouldn't it be nice if we could add a watermark to images found nowhere else but here?

== My absence from the Wiki ==

I guess it's pretty apparent by now how I'm not really around here anymore. I don't have anything to say for myself other than my interest here just not being what it used to. Chances are I was never up to the task of consistently helping out here like I thought I'd be able to.

I'm sorry for not keeping basically all the promises I made. If the image-renaming project hasn't already been given to someone else than it can be passed along to another. I want to say I was around Dragon Quest VII before I lost track due to computer issues.

If there were any moderator / administrator tools on me, you can remove them if you want. I'm not really around regularly enough to do any moderation / administration things. I might still come by to contribute to articles, though.

And sorry for just screwing up here like I did. Posting this isn't going to change much, but I figured it might be better than just continuing to leave things as I had. --[[User:PantheonSasuke|PantheonSasuke]] 11:26, 6 December 2012 (CST)

Yeah, while I'm doing several kinds of edits (like creating pages), I'm mainly working on providing a contrasting list of treasures found in a location for ''DQ III'' & ''DQ IV'' between both the NES version of the games, plus the later remakes.

But one thing that would help since I lack the know how on scanning, some picture of the various locations (especially dungeons) would help add more to the pages. [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 19:17, 11 October 2013 (CDT)

I'm writing to let you know that we've come back online, but with a different address: http://www.starfoxwiki.info/ . You may wish to check and update any links you had pointing to the old domain.

:Fixed. Better late than never! --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 10:44, 1 December 2012 (CST)

== My absence from the Wiki ==

I guess it's pretty apparent by now how I'm not really around here anymore. I don't have anything to say for myself other than my interest here just not being what it used to. Chances are I was never up to the task of consistently helping out here like I thought I'd be able to.

I'm sorry for not keeping basically all the promises I made. If the image-renaming project hasn't already been given to someone else than it can be passed along to another. I want to say I was around Dragon Quest VII before I lost track due to computer issues.

If there were any moderator / administrator tools on me, you can remove them if you want. I'm not really around regularly enough to do any moderation / administration things. I might still come by to contribute to articles, though.

And sorry for just screwing up here like I did. Posting this isn't going to change much, but I figured it might be better than just continuing to leave things as I had. --[[User:PantheonSasuke|PantheonSasuke]] 11:26, 6 December 2012 (CST)

== Member of Dragon Quest ==

Hello I would like to become a member of the Dragon Quest Wiki. I have send you a e-mail that I want to become part of the community too, but I though this way would be quicker. Thank you for your time. [[Special:Contributions/87.210.251.151|87.210.251.151]] 06:07, 30 December 2012 (CST)

Hey FlyingRangar, just so you know, on My Mobile Browser, DQW comes up as a blank page. Not sure if it does for other people. [[User:TacoBud|TacoBud]] 20:29, 17 January 2013 (CST)

== Two things ==

Hey FlyingRangar, two things:
# when you get a chance, please check out [http://www.niwanetwork.org/forums/index.php?topic=1379.0 this thread] and join in, if interested
# MIWA has recently voted to put together [url=http://www.niwanetwork.org/wiki/Nintendo_Independent_Wiki_Alliance#Executive_Board]Executive Board[/url], and on it, each wiki can have one member to be its representative.
Thank you for your time, [[User:TacoBud|TacoBud]] ([[User talk:TacoBud|talk]]) 21:31, 5 October 2013 (CDT).

== 8-bit maps ==
Haha, yeah I saw that yesterday. Pretty hilarious. I wonder if they will keep it or get rid of it in a few weeks. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 11:11, 1 April 2012 (CDT)
:I am hoping they keep it, personally. And... you wrote on my userpage. [[User:TacoBud|TacoBud]] 12:57, 1 April 2012 (CDT)
:: Yes I did. Oops. I mean, April Fools! Uh, right. --[[User:FlyingRagnar|FlyingRagnar]] 22:03, 1 April 2012 (CDT)
:::*lol* it is quite alright. And by chance, did you get screenshot of 8-bit goggle maps? [[User:TacoBud|TacoBud]] 16:08, 2 April 2012 (CDT).
