Weaponlord
You have created two articles about characters from the game Weaponlord. I edited them both, and support you in writing them. Are you going to write articles for all the characters? And do you think you will be able to get images that could be legally used on Wikipedia for the characters? I am now going to put the 'Vital Statisitics' into an infobox on both articles.

 * Ok, I have got a basic infobox on the Talazia article. Please post any pages about the characters that you make here, I can add an infobox and edit them as needed, and make sure that the others link to them correctly! Thanks. J Milburn 19:51, 20 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Also done Zorn. J Milburn 19:54, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes
Wow, thanks alot. As you could probably tell, this is my first time as a contributor to Wikipedia. And I would really appreacite if you could contiunue to edit any info I submit for WeaponLord, as I will be filling in the rest of the characters.

The only images I can get for each character are portraits in print screen images from an emulated version of the game. Finding pictures online is incredibly rare. I'm not sure if those are allowed on Wiki.
 * No, I don't think they would be allowed. I am having trouble with the infoboxes, I am pretty new to Wiki myself! I am going to fiddle with it for a while, I will work it out! J Milburn 19:34, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Images
http://www.weaponlord.crunchtimegames.com/

This site has scanned artwork images from the official instruction booklet! I can't believe I found such a site, as WeaponLord is so obscure.

I have NO idea how to handle pictures, I hope you do. :p

Also, I've added all the characters, save for Zarak and Korr.
 * Yeah, I can handle images, but I am going to have to have a look at the copyright information. I have sorted all the articles you have written, this is looking good! Are you going to write one for the other two? J Milburn 20:09, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Yes, I just finished Korr infact. I'll be adding some more gameplay information in the main WL article as well. Although I'm not sure if I'll get to it today.

I tried to ask for permission to use the pictures through the guestbook, but my browsers did not allow me to sign it, annoyingly. I will add another info-box now. J Milburn 20:33, 20 July 2006 (UTC)

Good to go!
Instead of fiddling with that guesbook, I sent an email to the creative planner of WeaponLord, and I got this response.

I cannot give you official permission because I do not own the title, yet. But, I would just do it and list everything TM namco hometek This after all is free publicity/ nice write up for them and not something you are making money from!

So I guess this means we can use the images for the WL entry. :)


 * Ok, that is brilliant. I will do it tomorrow morning, and if it isn't done, I am off for a few weeks out of the country, so I won't be able to do it then! Does that mean all the images from the website? I will do all of the character ones, and one of the in-game ones. Oh, and I have now played the game, and, I must say, for a SNES game, IT ROCKS! J Milburn 17:57, 22 July 2006 (UTC)

Yeah, I was playing the Genesis version the other day, I was doing the death combos alot, they're tricky, but fun to do.

If you know you won't be able to do it tomorrow, maybe you could write me a quick little tutorial or template on how to get it done myself? I tried earlier today, but I couldn't get it working right at all.
 * I am here now, done the first two, and will do the other few in a couple of minutes. J Milburn 09:56, 23 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Wiki does not like the images. Aparrently, that permission it not enough, and so they will be deleted. I am going to upload them all anyway, and put them in the appropriate articles, but they may be gone soon. J Milburn 10:34, 23 July 2006 (UTC)


 * Another Wikipedian has saved the images, by putting a different tag on them! All is good, the articles are now really good. As I said, I am off on Holiday for a couple of weeks, but it has been great working with you on this project. If you ever want to work together again, want to do more on this project or just want a chat, please post a message on my talk page. See you around! J Milburn 17:49, 23 July 2006 (UTC)
