Crysis Hunter to Scout
I changed it because it is a scout that flys in to you at the start of the game. The picture of it happening was taken by me and i can tell you that half a second later, the alien was not big enough to be a hunter. and it has more legs. Go on http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gbidjAXKzbc and note that the flying aliens (scouts) are different to the Hunter which appears at about 2:13 in the video.
 * And that is inaccurate as of the game. The game officially calls the very big machine an Exosuit. Go replay the fight on the carrier, and look at the Objectives tab for its name. Also, new content goes to the bottom of a page - NOT the top. CABAL (talk) 11:02, 30 November 2007 (UTC)

Soul Cube
Thank you for the excellent article. Actually I couldn't find any useful info about it anywhere else in the net. -- 212.138.64.173 01:11, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)


 * All that information is either present in-game, or can be inferred from. Just takes a bit of exploring and patience, like waiting for the UAC propaganda video for the Cube to reach the part about its properties. CABAL 06:04, 10 Jun 2005 (UTC)

Combine picture
Hey, what part of the game did you get that picture from? Jm51 17:48, 23 July 2005 (UTC)


 * Actually, that's from the Half Life Model Viewer, part of the Source SDK. However, all models you see onscreen in-game are present somewhere on the current map, owing to the fact that the game creates such views using a camera entity. So, if you Noclip and scoot around a bit, you should be able to see it in full-view from within the game. I'd still prefer the Viewer, though. CABAL 19:50, 23 July 2005 (UTC)

To answer your question
I like dark chocolate too. What about white chocolate? I can't stand it. --Lord Voldemort (Dark Mark) 19:07, 8 September 2005 (UTC)


 * I take dark chocolate because of its coverage in the media as a good way to keep down heart disease, arterial degeneration and the like when eaten in moderation. Additives like milk tend to badly dilute its beneficial properties. That, and dark chocolate tastes richer and has a better texture. CABAL 05:11, 10 September 2005 (UTC)


 * Yeah, you have to take dark chocolate. What rough medicine. :) Well, here's to good health. Cheers. --Lord Voldemort (Dark Mark) 13:58, 12 September 2005 (UTC)


 * Oh, brouhaha. A play on words. :) CABAL 15:02, 12 September 2005 (UTC)

Makron image...
I noticed that Image:Strogg makron encounter.png is rather large in filesize. You might want to consider converting it to Jpeg. PNG is great for many things, but not so good for photos and other high colour images.--Drat (Talk) 01:49, 17 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I have an extreme aversion to quality loss, somewhat acceptable considering I deliberately keep things in small numbers. You could perform the JPG conversion yourself if you wish, the PNG holds all the untouched data, but if enough people find the PNG format troublesome for the main article, I'll do it myself. CABAL 11:53, 17 January 2006 (UTC)
 * I'll convert it and upload. With the right setting, very little loss in quality can be achieved with a fraction of the filesize. As it is, the file is just under half the size of an equivalent bitmap.--Drat (Talk) 12:13, 17 January 2006 (UTC)


 * I've listed Image:Strogg nexus core details.png, Image:Strogg torso unit.png, Image:Strogg matthew kane.png, Image:Strogg makron encounter.png, Image:Strogg jet engine.png, Image:Strogg iron maiden.png, Image:Strogg human experiment.png, Image:Strogg harvester patrol.png, Image:Strogg harvester attack.png, Image:Strogg control panel.png for deletion. I've replaced them with 95% quality Jpeg versions.--Drat (Talk) 04:25, 24 January 2006 (UTC)

F.E.A.R. article splitting
Hi CABAL, I've just posted in the discussione page for F.E.A.R., but thought to drop you a few lines as well, since I've seen you've been putting a lot of effort into the F.E.A.R. article. I'm working on a new version for this article and I'd like some preliminary comment: you can check it out at User:Berserker79/b79sandbox. It's not complete yet, but suggestions would be welcome. Also, what do you think about creating a separate List of F.E.A.R. weapons article? If there are no big objections I'd simply create it by placing the whole weaps section as it is to a new article. Thanks for your help. Berserker79 13:59, 25 February 2006 (UTC)

Your cleanup
Thank you for your help in tiding up the page Structures of the Brotherhood of Nod. Needless to say, my spelling and grammar suck, and its nice to know that the community can be counted on to capitalize on a good idea. Also, I apreciate the checking af the factual accuracy of the entries on the pages; its been years since I last played C&C, and memory does fade with time.

PS: I found it amusing that a wikipedia user with the handle CABAL would be cleaning up pages related to the Brotherhood of Nod, as Nod’s AI unit in Tiberian Sun was was the Computer Assisted Biologically Augmented Lifeform, or CABAL for short. Life can be real funny sometimes. TomStar81 00:18, 31 March 2006 (UTC)


 * That's where I got the name from. I recently purchased Command and Conquer: The First Decade, and having all the games at once helps when confirming factual accuracies; hence my recent massive clean-ups of those pages. I'll be handling the GDI pages next. P.S. Does Wikipedia care if its spelt "Armoured" or "Armored"? CABAL 07:52, 31 March 2006 (UTC)


 * We have no strong feelings one way or the other. This is due in part to the fact that Egland English and United States English have different spellings of certain words. The general rule of thumb is that if it appears to be spelled correctly in ones native english than its ok here. TomStar81 23:07, 1 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Very well...consider this the overture to my symphony... CABAL 23:16, 1 April 2006 (UTC)


 * The C&C Generals pages are now live. Feel free to help clean them up. I have a butload of pictures that will be placed in the articles shortly. TomStar81 09:54, 22 April 2006 (UTC)


 * Ack. More stuff to edit. CABAL 12:43, 22 April 2006 (UTC)

Bad News
I hate to be the bearer of bad news, but after maticulously going through the C&C: Tiberian series article pictures I have discovered that several of the picture(s) listed as being uploaded by you do not have sources. To be fair, I am going to give a two week amnesty period to allow you to source the images uploaded without a source. According to my survey, the following images you uploaded do not have a source: If no source can be provided after two weeks I will have to tag the images with a no source template, at which point they will in all likelyhood be deleted. TomStar81 07:53, 6 May 2006 (UTC)
 * Image:CNC TS CABAL.png - please specify if you took the screenshot in game or found it somewhere


 * Does not mentioning that it came from Nod mission briefing no. 11 in-game from CnC: TS count? CABAL 08:37, 6 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Sadly, no. We need to know exactly where it came from. If this was a scan, a website, a concept render, or something along those lines we need to know where you got it from and how you placed it here. In the case of scans, concept renders, etc the magazine or other meduim you discovered it in will do; if you found this on the web then a web adress has to be provided. On a related note sorry for the long delay in answering the question, I have been busy. Really busy (Finals Suck!) TomStar81 07:23, 16 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Take a look at the image now. I edited it a while ago to state that I personally took the screenshot myself. CABAL 12:18, 16 May 2006 (UTC)


 * Ok, that works. I went ahead and clearly stated that you are the source for the image, so the photo is now sourced in the wikipedia sense. Good job! TomStar81 19:19, 16 May 2006 (UTC)

Arcanum query
G'day. Looking through the history of Arcanum, I saw that it was you who put in the magic schools. For some of them you provide alternative names, ie. hydromancy for Water. Are these alternative names actually encountered in-game? I can't for the life of me remember coming across them, although I've never really played a mage. Hide&amp;Reason 13:11, 28 September 2006 (UTC)
 * "Hydromancy" in particular came from that particular school's master in Tulla, and I probably put in the bit about pyromancy too. The others were not by me. CABAL 15:02, 28 September 2006 (UTC)

Image:FEAR box art.png
Hello there CABAL, I was wondering if you could drop me a line to let me know the source for the F.E.A.R. box art picture (Image:FEAR box art.png) you uploaded. Looks like the currently used one has to be replaced owing to its MobyGames watermark, but the one you uploaded is missing its source. Did you scan it yourself or did you download it from somewhere? Thanks for the help. Cheers, Berserker79 12:20, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
 * Pulled it out of the official FEAR Fansite Kit, under the "Box" subdirectory. The original file was actually "F.E.A_Box_150CMYK_CE93.tif" CABAL 13:27, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Polishing revision draft
When the rough blade is completed, the swordsmith turns the blade over to a polisher called a togishi, whose job it is to refine the shape of a blade and improve its aesthetic value. The entire process takes considerable time, in some cases easily up to several weeks. Early polishers used three types of stone, whereas a modern polisher generally uses seven. The modern high level of polish was not normally done before around 1600, since greater emphasis was placed on function over form. The polishing process almost always takes longer than even crafting, and a good polish can greatly improve the beauty of a blade, while a bad one can make the best of blades look like guntō. More importantly, inexperienced polishers can permanently ruin a blade by badly disrupting its geometry or wearing down too much steel, both of which effectively destroy the sword's monetary, historic, artistic, and functional value.

Stages
The process is divided into two stages, foundation and finish polishing.

Foundation polishing
Called shitaji togi, foundation polishing sets the geometry of the blade and encompasses all main stages; utilizing large waterstones of increasingly finer grit and hardness. If the sword isn't straight for whatever reasons, the duty of correcting it falls to the polisher. From this point on, a polisher works to form and grind surfaces and geometry as needed; note that these stages are also where damage is repaired through careful reshaping. The relatively-small point area of the blade, the kissaki, is distinct enough that it must be worked on by dividing the polishing among smaller subregions. If the blade has hi (fullers), they are also polished but not with the main stones as they are too large, instead a variety of methods are used including stones of smaller size, a hardened-steel burnishing needle (Migaki-bo) or even fine-grit sandpaper.

Artificial waterstones are nowadays used for the foundation polishing stage, but often if not always never used for finishing, as they will produce inferior results as compared to natural stones.

Finish polishing
Called "shiage togi", finish polishing as per its name places the finishing on the blade; the most notable differences between this stage and the previous are that the stones used are of considerably smaller size, and that the blade remains stationary, instead having the abrasives and tools moved over it. In this stage, extremely-fine grit stones have wafer-thin slices removed for use, painstakingly worked over a blade section by section. Once over and ever after all polishing efforts, the blade's look will still be slightly unbalanced and displeasing, it is at this point that a special nugui mixture is used and softly rubbed over the blade to soften and balance the appearance. This stage is also where the yokote line is brought out; this may be done through artificial creation or by making the existing line more distinct (more often than not however, existing lines will usually be lost during a prior polishing stage). The final major step involves fully-burnishing the rear and side surfaces.

The finishing process brings out and enhances all details of a blade so that they are readily-visible for observation and analysis, which entails results that must be free of any potential imperfections, namely unwanted scratch patterns.

Hamon finishes
There are two main styles of hamon finishes, "hadori" and "sashikomi nugui".

Hadori
The hadori style is named after the hadori stone used, a waterstone selected for its slightly-greater coarseness which helps lighten the hamon and make it stand out against surrounding areas. The hadori style cannot exactly replicate the hamon as the finishing is actually a trace of the original; thus its quality depends mainly on the nature of the hamon itself, available equipment and the skill of the polisher. This process is relatively new, having been developed in the past century.

Sashikomi nugui
The shashikomi nugui style is named after the nugui mixture used to produce the final effect. First, the entire hamon is run over by the hadori stone, a process which will run over into surrounding areas. The nugui mixture is then applied and if properly done, the hamon will be little affected but surrounding areas will considerably darken. In this case, the hamon's appearance is exactly preserved. This process is normally only done on blades with well-defined hamons and grain patterns.

Evaluation
Polishing is a crucial step in preparing a blade for analysis, since it brings out and enhances all external details as mentioned earlier. This is important because details such as the shape, geometry, particular proportions, appearance of the hamon and grain pattern and so on, are distinctive enough that they can be used to accurately determine the heritage and origin of a blade. As such, they can be considered a more trustworthy signature of a smith than the actual signature itself.

A good polishing reveals what speed the edge was cooled at, from what temperature, and what the carbon content of the steel is. It does this by displaying either predominantly nioi, which is a mix of extremely fine martensite with troostite (another type of tempered steel), or the larger martensite crystals called nie, which look like individual dot-like mirrors.

Thanks for the Terminator assist!
Hey! Thanks for the assist on the Terminator pages I've been working on. And more thanks for opening up discussion on my newly created page -- I took a note from you and put some of my thoughts down there, partly response to yours. Go have a look at my babble-age on Talk:Terminator (character_concept). Glad you decided to contribute! It means a lot, I kinda worked my butt off on that article just for the hell of it. : )

If you're a fan like me, feel free to share your thoughts on my talk page -- on Terminator, or on any other subjects we may share an interest in.

Cheers, -- ManfrenjenStJohn 01:38, 21 June 2007 (UTC)

 * Oh, the wonders of having all three films on DVD. CABAL 11:10, 21 June 2007 (UTC)
 * Well, yeah, I hand to re-rent T1 and T3 because I only own T2 on DVD. (Actually I used to have this really awesome T1+T2+extras box set in VHS widescreen that was produced for a while before DVDs came around, ah... memories.) Anyways, just got through with T3 -- and you're right about arnie being fully CGI at times . I finally got to the director-only commentary track, and mostow points out a few stunt sequences where "digital doubles" of arnie are used, the crane-boom-through-the-office-building scene being one of them. Arnie getting heaved by Kristanna through the bathroom walls was another. I wanted to go back and cite the evolution of animating CGI actors and how it in the entire industry it all goes back to T2, but... I think I just found out what it's like to get burned out on the Terminator universe. : ) -- ManfrenjenStJohn 08:34, 22 June 2007 (UTC)

Again, my thanks for your edits of my edits today, particularly the "trimming". -- As you can see by now, I am indeed a loquacious individual, prone to redundant verbiage, often producing more written copy than is necessary for a given article of documentation, when fewer words, or alternatively, less written copy, would be sufficient and adequate for the topic I am endavouring to explain and/or discuss. :) --  ManfrenjenStJohn 23:39, 27 June 2007 (UTC)

Cabal the ad maker?
I have found an ad and it stated the name "Cabal" when the quotes where finished. It is an ad for adminship. However, I have read one of the final quotes stating "Will you spend the next year or so cursing the day you ever heard of Wikipedia?", is that suppoesed to bring people away from Wikipedia. Since the name "Cabal" appeared, I assumed you were the creator of it.



I am just doing my job as a user to protect Wikipedia from becoming the ad site Wikipedians don't want it to be. Please respond on my talk page. To do that please click the "?!?". --Good Day,Angel David, ?!? 21:52, 24 July 2007 (UTC)

Hi, CABAL. Listen, I am sorry I have blamed your for a crime of conspiracy. I should no have done that. What I said was very rude and mostly wrong. I have been mean and I regret it doing so. You could respond to this on either mine or yours. It is your choice, not mine. Good Day. --Angel David?!?, 01:10, 1 August 2007 (UTC)

Because I kind of know how you feel. Once, I was charged of bieng a conspirator myself! I created an article about a fictional orginazation but a good-faith user mistakened it to be an ad, lol (laugh out loud)! But, that user and I forgave each other in no time!

I need help, and I think you can provide it.
The Freelancer (computer game) plot summary has been tagged as needing to be reduced. I've been having trouble doing this, because I'm not sure what information is relevant to the overall story. Based on your posts on the Freelancer talk page, I assumed that you have played through the game, which is the kind of person I need right now. If I am correct in my assumption, would you be willing to aid me in my efforts? If I am incorrect, sorry for bugging you. In either case, thank you for your time.

You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box.

Thanks for uploading Image:Arcanum Vendigroth Submarine.png. You've indicated that the image is being used under a claim of fair use, but you have not provided an adequate explanation for why it meets Wikipedia's requirements for such images. In particular, for each page the image is used on, the image must have an explanation linking to that page which explains why it needs to be used on that page. Can you please check


 * That there is a non-free use rationale on the image's escription page for each article the image is used in.
 * That every article it is used on is linked to from its description page.

Revision to Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire and Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri articles
I noticed that you have revised either Sid Meier's Alpha Centauri or Sid Meier's Alien Crossfire.

I intend to revise those articles following the WikiProject Video games/Article guidelines. There are more details on the discussion pages of those articles. I'd be interested in any comments you have. It would be best if your comments were on the discussion pages of the two articles.

Thank you.

Notification: changes to "Mark my edits as minor by default" preference
Hello there. This is an automated message to tell you about the gradual phasing out of the preference entitled "Mark all edits minor by default", which you currently have (or very recently had) enabled.

On 13 March 2011, this preference was hidden from the user preferences screen as part of efforts to prevent its accidental misuse (consensus discussion). This had the effect of locking users in to their existing preference, which, in your case, was. To complete the process, your preference will automatically be changed to  in the next few days. This does not require any intervention on your part and you will still be able to manually mark your edits as being minor in the usual way.

For established users such as yourself there is a workaround available involving custom JavaScript. With the script in place, you can continue with this functionality indefinitely (its use is governed by WP:MINOR). If you have any problems, feel free to drop me a note.

Thank you for your understanding and happy editing :) Editing on behalf of User:Jarry1250, LivingBot (talk) 18:54, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Disputed non-free use rationale for File:Terminator 2 Endoskeleton Arm.jpg
Thank you for uploading File:Terminator 2 Endoskeleton Arm.jpg. However, there is a concern that the rationale provided for using this file on Wikipedia may not meet the criteria required by Non-free content. This can be corrected by going to the file description page and adding or clarifying the reason why the file qualifies under this policy. Adding and completing one of the templates available from Non-free use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your file is in compliance with Wikipedia policy. Please be aware that a non-free use rationale is not the same as an image copyright tag; descriptions for files used under the non-free content policy require both a copyright tag and a non-free use rationale.

If it is determined that the file does not qualify under the non-free content policy, it might be deleted by an administrator seven days after the file was tagged in accordance with section F7 of the criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions, please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.
