+==Um…==
+Hello again. You were always such great help to me and a good friend not to check in and see how you’ve been doing. Have a wonderful holiday! icysugarspike 16:35, 4 December 2023 (EST)
+:I appreciate the Christmas well-wishes, thank you! Aside from the usual end-of-year mania I can't complain, and I hope things are at least thrice as good in your neck of the woods. Slicing up older material has given me a whole new appreciation for the work you did for the site gathering image resources, I really hope I'm living up to the standards you set.

+I’m so flattered, you make me turn a tinge pinkish. You more than live up to my standards! If you wouldn’t mind pointing me in the right direction, I’d love to see the new images you’ve uploaded. I’m a huge fan of concept art for games, especially DQ. Enjoy!

+:It's all under the archive.org user account I have linked on my main page [https://archive.org/details/@sunset14 and right here]. There's still more than a few holy grails I want to hunt down, but I think this is a half-way decent foundation to build upon.

+==The "Related Monsters" sections==
+Just to be clear, while I am not sure if there is a policy on the matter, I usually put "Related Monsters" all the way at the bottom as they aren't about the subject of the article.  [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 20:28, 28 December 2023 (EST)
+:Placing the related monsters links at the bottom of the page does make sense, but since the galleries have been growing I've noticed that the tab tends to get lost under all the images. I've started placing it as the second-to-last so that the reader has a chance to notice it before the pictures catch their attention.([[User:Follower of Light|Follower of Light]] ([[User talk:Follower of Light|talk]]) 20:39, 28 December 2023 (EST))
+::Good point.  Yeah, it's why I go heavy with repeated links.  Besides the JP equivalent to the wiki doing so, I try to make things user friendly especially to newcomers to the franchise.  Hence sometimes if you notice I take some spoiler precautions, since while most of my edits are for old games, they aren't as prominent in the US.
+::Also, one plan I have for galleries regarding monsters from {{IV}}-{{VI}} is to include their bestiary pic from the [[Cell phone|Android]] game's [['The Big Book of Beasts']]. [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 20:49, 28 December 2023 (EST)
+:::Spoiler guards are a good idea with how self-referential this series is, especially with The Dark Prince introducing IV's story to a whole new crowd. Yeah, moving the B.B.o.B screenshots to the individual monster galleries is a good call as they'd be isolated otherwise.([[User:Follower of Light|Follower of Light]] ([[User talk:Follower of Light|talk]]) 21:01, 28 December 2023 (EST))
+::::Infact, I think I will moved Pegasus to [[Peggy Sue]], since yeah the article is a major spoiler as is.  Also going to redirect character content from an article from {{VI}} to [[Tania]] since the similar named character from {{III}} has a different localization name.  I will make those changed and make sure to adjust the links properly this week.

+==Gloobert==
+So the [[Slime]] from ''[[Psaro and Rose picture book]]'' and {{The Dark Prince}}.  Would just to be sure, the same Slime that was in the [[Rosehill]] tower from {{IV}}? [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 07:24, 4 February 2024 (EST)
+:By all accounts and research this seems to be the case. ([[User:Follower of Light|Follower of Light]] ([[User talk:Follower of Light|talk]]) 10:21, 4 February 2024 (EST))
+::In fact, I think he appears in the {{Definitive Edition}} of {{XI}} as well, right? [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 20:46, 4 February 2024 (EST)
+:::Really? I can't recall that but it has been a while since I played XI. Let me know if you can remember where he's at. ([[User:Follower of Light|Follower of Light]] ([[User talk:Follower of Light|talk]]) 19:22, 5 February 2024 (EST))
+::::Still haven't played it, but I watched my brother play through the [[Nintendo Switch]] port and yeah he appears during the [[Tickington]] quest where you save him and [[Rose]] from [[Sir Roseguardin]].  [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 22:33, 5 February 2024 (EST)
+:::::Ah, derp, I should have figured as much. I'll take a look at my old file soon and get the little glob added in.([[User:Follower of Light|Follower of Light]] ([[User talk:Follower of Light|talk]]) 21:07, 6 February 2024 (EST))
+==In the event of wiki malfunction==
+I PMed you on the Woodus forum with my email just cause I'd like a means of contact when the server as a hiccup, plus some recent edits (Luckily only a day) vanishing. [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 04:34, 23 June 2024 (EDT)
+:Yeah, just that I recall while not as big a forum slow down years ago when I started uploading files often and I just couldn't be sure it was a coincidence. [[User:Antiyonder|Antiyonder]] ([[User talk:Antiyonder|talk]]) 17:38, 23 June 2024 (EDT)
+::Life is weird like that sometimes with how often coincidences happen. Don't ever worry about weighing down the site with your images though, I'd rather triple the hosting price than get rid of any of those. You're practically the official illustrator for the wiki with how much you've contributed, and trust me they go a long way to enriching the reader's experience when they go through the pages.
