Thanks for adding some nice pictures to the pages. ^^ Any chance you could tell me where you got the pictures of the model kits and Medarot DS/7 cards though? I don't like the idea of taking other people's pictures without at least citing the source... Did you take any of the pictures/scans yourself? ~ [[User:Kimbles|Kimbles]] 21:17, 23 May 2013 (MDT)

Again, thank you so much for adding these! I'm still missing sources on a lot of the non-dual models and figures though, as well as the M7 AR cards... I'm worried that some of the models (like [[:File:Pretty Prime model action pose.jpg|this one]]) are actually fan-made custom figures, which we probably shouldn't include because they're essentially fanart.
As for how the images are used on the pages, I think that including ''every'' picture of a model kit might be overkill... Including one or two representative pictures and linking to the webpage with all of them would be a better use of space, plus it would be more respectful to the person who's picture's we're taking. I'm also thinking of changing the infobox picture to the front-facing "design" art when it's available. What do you think?

Hi!

Hey, thanks for deciding to join the wiki and help out!

Just wanted to mention, I'd rather that you didn't copy any information or pages from Medabots Wiki (since it violates the license that the pages were published under, and most of the pages there are badly written anyway). I really appreciate you adding new pages but it would be better all-around if you could write your own content instead. ^^

Also, for any Medarots from Medarot 1 or 2, you should be able to use the Medarot 2 sprite by changing the M4 to an M2 in the file name (since all of the M2 sprites are uploaded). The Medarot 4 sprites aren't all that different, so you shouldn't need to worry about uploading them for now. *nod* ~ Kimbles 22:21, 16 October 2012 (MDT)

I don't mean to nag, but could you pretty please stop creating pages without any text on them? ): Infoboxes are nice, but they don't really add enough info to warrant making the page when there's nothing else there. I just don't like the idea of a reader coming across tons of nearly empty pages... If you could even include just a tiny bit of information on the page that isn't copy-pasted it would really help.
By the way, you can use the M2 sprites in the infobox for any of the Medarots in Medarot 1 or 2. For the "image" part, just put M2-(model number goes here).gif. For Paradiver for example, you'd put M2-BOP-0.gif. ~ Kimbles 22:43, 6 November 2012 (MST)

Replacing images

Hey, I'm just curious why you're uploading your own versions of the M2 sprites when they're all already on the wiki... I spent a lot of time on them making them consistant, so I'd prefer to leave them with the same colors and spacing as before. ): If you really think the sprite images need changing, please actually explain why, otherwise I'm going to go ahead and revert them to the versions I uploaded. (I'm giving you fair warning here.)

I understand that you're trying to help, but this is what happens when you don't communicate! ~ Kimbles 05:46, 17 May 2013 (MDT)

Image sources

Thanks for adding some nice pictures to the pages. ^^ Any chance you could tell me where you got the pictures of the model kits and Medarot DS/7 cards though?

Images

Again, thank you so much for adding these! I'm still missing sources on a lot of the non-dual models and figures though, as well as the M7 AR cards... I'm worried that some of the models (like this one) are actually fan-made custom figures, which we probably shouldn't include because they're essentially fanart.

As for how the images are used on the pages, I think that including every picture of a model kit might be overkill... Including one or two representative pictures and linking to the webpage with all of them would be a better use of space, plus it would be more respectful to the person who's picture's we're taking.
