Is there any special term for the "three hole" faces everything in Mischief Makers have? I mean, I've seen this sort of face a lot in Japanese games, on cactuar, and the Gyroid in Animal Crossing.... is it based on something from Japanese folklore? J.J. 17:18, 2 June 2006 (UTC)

Why do the Beastectors only speak in passive voice? 128.175.205.133 01:37, 28 July 2006 (UTC)

why does it say the old man is perverted?
 * Because he is. Have you played the game? Prof. Theo's always trying to cop a feel off Marina.
 * Prof. Theo makes a robot who's main abilities are to "grab" and "shake". Enough said.

Fair use rationale for Image:Mischief Makers (U).jpg
Image:Mischief Makers (U).jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

Keep the Catchphases
I'm putting back the Catchphases in becase during gameplay, I found a little hard understanding what they were saying. For instance, When the beastsectors say "beast change!" I thought they said "engage!" Also, when putting in catchphases, it is referring to when they speak, not a catchphrase in text. "THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 04:14, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

Sorry, this isn't a guide to help people hear what the characters say. They are presented in a very unencyclopedic manner. Unless you can incorporate them into the article in a relevent way, do not add them again. 199.126.137.209 13:31, 22 November 2006 (UTC)

have you played the game?? Its VERY hard to understand what their saying. the catchphraes ARE relevent, let alond someone has agreed. "THROUGH FIRE, JUSTICE IS SERVED!" 02:45, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
 * It may be a bit late to be saying this, but this would fit in well on a Wikiquote page. Caswin 19:43, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

Revert
Hi, with the BOLD, revert, discuss cycle, it's better to bring a matter to talk page after a new change is reverted the first time (rather than going back and forth in an edit war). As for your questions (Why do you cause a redirect to the Famitsu link and remove the Edge magazine score?), there is nothing wrong with using a redirect that leads to another article (see the guideline on redirects that are not broken) and it is preferable in that the target of the redirect might change down the line. I mentioned in the edit summary that the Edge score was removed because it wasn't elaborated in the prose. Per the video game reviews template documentation, we don't just put numbers in the box without elaboration in the prose. It also says that we don't need more than a handful of reviews unless there is some extenuating reason, so it doesn't make sense to add the Edge review unless it is covering some specific angle that the article is missing. If you find this agreeable, please revert your edit at your leisure czar ♔   19:32, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Well, I had to fix the redirect, add italics to game sites, including IGN, and remove the Edge score, so I hope you can forgive me. --Angeldeb82 (talk) 19:35, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Fix what redirect? Nintendo World Report was best off as is, not piped to its current target. IGN is contested as needing italics because some say it isn't a magazine/news site czar ♔   20:41, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Why? All that the Nintendo World Report article does is redirect to Billy Berghammer. --Angeldeb82 (talk) 22:34, 15 November 2014 (UTC)
 * Right, and the guideline on links that aren't broken says to leave them as redirects rather than "fixing" them with a pipe. Anyway, thanks for the edits. I don't have a copy of the Edge review and would be curious to see what more we can take from it—would you be able email or link a scan/photo of it? czar ♔   00:04, 16 November 2014 (UTC)

The 20th anniversary of release (June 27, 2017) would be a good time to run this article for "today's featured article". czar ⨹   23:35, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

January surge
Big surge in traffic following a AGDQ proposal. Not notable enough for inclusion, though. czar ⨹   00:15, 10 January 2015 (UTC)

Famitsu
For posterity, I requested a translation of the Famitsu review (which, let me tell you, was a struggle to track down), and the result is available here. – czar   00:17, 7 August 2015 (UTC)

Mischief Makers doujin book
Yesterday, the very rare and elusive Mischief Makers doujin book containing artwork by Tetsuhiko "Han" Kikuchi was uploaded online, containing some pretty neat artwork that might be useful for the development section... Trouble Shooting! Roberth Martinez (talk) 00:04, 14 February 2020 (UTC)
 * Nice! Thanks. The sketches are interesting, but I think they would only be decorative in the Development section unless the accompanying text has a related revelation about the character design that I cannot translate. czar  10:31, 15 February 2020 (UTC)
 * One thing that i forgot to mention is that there is also unused concepts such as Marina's sisters. Roberth Martinez (talk) 22:47, 22 July 2020 (UTC)
