RIbbons Almark - Intervention At Eclipse
I just noticed the edits, and decided to put a discussion here.

About Ribbons sending Mr. Bushido, while not confirmed, was hinted out by Regene. Now, I know it's just a speculation on his part, but the dialogues in 00 seemed to be straightforward when you looked at it. So with Regene hinting about that, then not being confirmed or disconfirmed, lead me to believe that Ribbons actually dispatched Mr. Bushido.

About Nena not being employed, I watched the dubbed and she admitted on screen she worked with Innovators that time. Now those in japanese language might have the other way around, but I'm not sure. Is that the case here? I hope you shed light onto this.

Need to Bring Back Weapons Descriptions
I'm not a fan of multi layered pages of redundant info either,but I think we need to bring the weapons section back.Not all weapons are the same you know,they all have their unique individual characteristics,it doesnt have to be long winded or complex,just enough to describe the weapon in general and special characteristics on it.

I'm not just talking about 00 Raiser,I'm talking about all AD articles that had the weapons section totally removed.

If you want an example,take the GN-X Beam Rifle.Did you know that the Long Barrel adds range to the weapon itself but reduces the rate of fire?[Making a bit of a long range non sniping rifle].I click on the long range rifle section and it just leads me to the GN Rifle section of the series,which tells me little about this uniqe feature that aonly available to the Original GN-X Rifle.

What about the Ahead Rifle extension?It doesnt increase the range,this one actually increases the power and it adds some Condensers on the side as well.Dont forget the GN-Sword II,where is the info on its beam rifle abilities,i>[it has a few different shots availale to it],or its larger than average beam saber size from the weapon.These are just some of the info that I founfd to be well....missing and its sad because some of these features arent just regular features that applies to all,and linkin them to the listed weapons page does not do them justice whatsoever,hell the GN Sword section in the AD weapons section is empty!!!So literally I think the site have 0 to little info on GN Sword series now.

All of these info.......lost and blank,nowhere to be found.I know you're not related to this issue,but I'm simply bringing it up to you,because this trend concerns me.-SonicSP 11:12, February 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * If you please review the discussion page for Shared Weapons, I explore the idea of features specific to a particular weapon being incorporated into the Technology and Characteristics segments.
 * Using the example of the GN-X and its beam rifle, I would propose the following solution:
 * Replace the link under Optional Equipment with simple text.
 * Then add a passage to the effect of
 * ...Gundam Throne series; the overall tech was based on reversed engineered CB GN-tech. The GN-X is the first production mobile suit sporting beam weapons a pair of GN Beam Sabers and a GN Beam Machine Gun. The GN Beam Machine Gun sacrifices accuracy at range in favor of rate of fire, however ground crews can attach a longer barrel which reduces the rate of fire but increases accuracy at range. This upgrade by no means gives a GN-X sniping capabilities but does allow the pilot reach out and touch the enemy.
 * The GN-X series intented mission was that of a highly manuverable, high speed combatant.
 * This was what I was what I always intended. --Nkuzmik 15:16, February 8, 2010 (UTC)


 * That's certainly better than nothing.Personally,I do wish the description is a bit more specialised in a section.As in long barrel mention for example under the GN-X rifle section in under the actual "Beam Rifle".


 * But now,that we have indeed gotten a good transcript of alot of the intruction manuals,I guess we can mention more specialised things about them.Of course,in my opinion most of the CB Gundam's weaponry fall under this category,


 * Of course,if something really is just plain,most probably something from the sidestories,we can always just stick with a line like An ordinary beam rifle with a link to the weapons page.


 * Oh and I know the GN-X dont have the sniping ability but I guess I am sort of comparing the upgrade that of a sniper rifle,specifically the sniper rifle II which fires it long range mode with the barrel attached,just a small comparison like thing.They are far different from each other in ability-SonicSP 16:45, February 8, 2010 (UTC)

Episodes
Meh. User_talk:CrusaderRedG21. We got some cleaning to do. Simant 19:44, February 20, 2010 (UTC)

Preemptive (Allelujah's page)
I searched before (while back) what it meant, and it says to attack before the enemies' anticipated attack (Of course, I'm just para-phrasing). And with that I wouldn't think what A-Laws did at Langrage 3 is preemptive in nature. It's more of purely suprised attack than preemptive. Look it back if you want. Bronx01 21:56, February 24, 2010 (UTC)

preemptive strike - to gain the advantage of initiative and to harm the enemy at a moment of minimal protection, for instance while vulnerable during transport or mobilization.

Perhaps we have different definitions, but preemptive war have always been about hitting the other person before they can properly respond, this was textbook definition to me. Wasabi

It's more like 'before they can do harm' than 'before they can respond'. Preemptive strike is given to an attack that prevent an imminent attack form the enemy. The enemy should have hold some threat that the other team wants to stop.

Simply being a threat in general, broader sense of view, doesn't make an attack against an enemy preemptive; it needs to be specific. In this case, A-Laws were just doing some mop up operation. They didn't attack Celestial Being because they received an info CB would do something around that time. Bronx01 14:12, February 25, 2010 (UTC)

Redesign
Check my proposed redesing for the Main Page and provide me with some feedback. Marcos Taracena 04:10, February 27, 2010 (UTC)

I think it's just fine, no objections. A definite improvement over the previous design. Wasabi 07:52, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

Imaging Program for the 3D Models of Gundam 00
Hi, taikage i dunno who to ask so i guess i'll ask you but do you know what program is being used to generate the 3D models of the Gundam 00 gundams that are used on this wiki?TallgeeseIII 05:35, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

I personally don't know, but i got the pics from a Japanese CG artist. Take a look yourself http://zefaiblog.blog4.fc2.com/ Wasabi 07:53, March 5, 2010 (UTC)

I know zefai but i was wondering if u know what they use :P

Re: Recent Edits
I think its just that I got other things to do in between the edits and I still tried to push these things (Ribbons/Allelujah articles) to finish. I don't think I'm stress or anything, maybe my quality just reflected how much divided my focus is at the moment.

I'll look again at my recent edits. Though, I hope this isn't too much to ask, but it'll be really helpful to point out some parts that you think I started to lag/suck in quality/grammar.

Thanks for the concern. Bronx01 14:46, March 9, 2010 (UTC)

Hey, Please stop deleting the line about the Director saying that Graham Aker

will play a major role in the movie. It is just a RUMOR so it's not yet official,

I would not place that Rumor there if the section is not titled "News & Rumors" right?

Insertion Request
I'm bad at these things, so I'm hoping you could do it.

I have these images from the Gundam 00V Gundam Weapons sourcebook released in recent weeks. These pics [] comprised of the Conventional MS developement chart released in that book [aka one out of the two charts given in that book]. I was hoping you could insert this chart in the AD Mobile Weapons page, since there is another developement chart there already of CB's origin for the most part from another source [PG 00 Raiser manual]. The book gives us CB's developement chart also but that only mainly repeats [there's a link of them of the AD Mobile Weapon discussion, if you want to take a look] what has been said in that chart. But since this 2nd chart this one composes mostly of Conventional MS developement which has not been visually represented to us before, I'd think it would be rather fitting to add them into the page. Of course, since I'm bad at this, I'm asking you to do it instead.-SonicSP 18:37, April 15, 2010 (UTC)

I'll do it when I have time, currently i'm just swamped with real life matters. Wasabi 01:12, April 16, 2010(UTC)

Oh, okay dude. Take your time. Seems like a delicate matter of page design, and I'm not really feeling like I can do it properly, otherwise I would have done it myself. Not to mention it is a pretty large image.-SonicSP 17:47, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

It would be best if we got someone with the entire page vs split into 2. I was the one who loaded up that Gundam evolution tree myself and that pic was just as big. See if you can find a translated version of that, it would help a world more for the other editors to know what they're looking at. Wasabi 21:08, April 16, 2010 (UTC)

HQ Linearts
Using a high quality pic of the mag scan that I have acquired, I've made new HQ versions of some of the linearts including 00Q rear,Zabanya rear, harute MS rear, Harute Fighter front/rear, Raphael front and raphael rear. Already posted them on the pages. Hope these quality suits what your looking for. I didn't bother doing most of the front lineart pics because we already have them of high quality from a previous mag. The exception here is raphael front, because the first mag's high quality had that black box over its leg. Since this is from the 2nd mag, its the first front raphael HG lineart.-SonicSP 19:02, May 3, 2010 (UTC)

Photoshop Assistance with AD MS Chart
Hey guys, SonicSP already uploaded pics of the MS chart of the opposing side; there's a slight problem I would like some assistance on. Do any of you guys have a either a better pic or photoshop skills to match up the 2-halves of the image into a single pic? []

Wasabi 17:19, May 13, 2010 (UTC)

About 00Qan T's
ok I SUPER CLEANED 00Qan T's page and got the source thing down and there is some things about HARUTE.

BUT ill get to what i was going to tell you well i realize that everyone on here is geting pretty busy with life so if you would like i can do anything about GUNDAM 00 that you guys feel you won't have time for cause im graduated and i dont have college for a while so i have ALOT and i do mean ALOT of FREE time on my hands so just let me know.

Shindy00 23:27, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

You can volunteer for that chart thingy on top^^^ since you said you have background in photoediting. I'll give you the pictures later.

Unrelated.......but I miss the old picture system where we just click and get to a new page, click again and see a BIG PIC-.--SonicSP 20:48, May 26, 2010 (UTC)

hahah SonicSP you are so right on the old pic system but OK i can do the picture thing but OK should i make a chart for each Faction like Example: the ESF, UNION and etc.

Plus Taikage asked me to do some of the characters so i can do that too. well just let me knowShindy00 03:49, May 27, 2010 (UTC)

RE: Beside Pain
At first, I agree with the merge/deletion of the page. However, recent developments in 00I suggest that they are not the same person; they only share memories. And they have separated body during the last chapter.

I haven't edit much into the profile (CrusaderRedG21 covered most of them), though I suggest to keep the page for now, until 00I (English trans) could clarify more into this. --Bronx01 13:19, May 28, 2010 (UTC)

They have indeed changed bodies. Beside downloaded himself into Leif's body when he activated the 1 Gundam in 00I. He got Leif's body injured, and then downloaded himself into another body that is the exact same copy. Now they are physically separate people again and they are definitely not the same person. If it helps, the official 00I website have separate profiles for each of them. So I think we must keep it separate as well. -SonicSP 20:56, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Those HQs pics of Movie gundams
ok im just about done with them, (their front views anyway) but tell me should i also get the back views and stuff, also any pic of 00Qan T :(

btw where should i post them exactly (i know on their pages but like where, on their gallery pics or the main one) ? Shindy00 19:31, May 29, 2010 (UTC)

You're basically replacing the previous images with a HQ one. Descartes' MA/MS has yet to be added, so please make that a priority. As for anything with a pre-existing pic, just upload over the previous ones. And yes, let's have a front & back for all of them if possible. Take your time, nobody is rushing you. Out of curiosity, you a guy or girl? I only ask because of the Shindy part of your SN, but that's not relevant matter. Thanks for your efforts. Wasabi 03:36, May 30, 2010 (UTC)

HAHAHA XD, im a guy lol shindy is actually a nickname for me so it sticks, But OK cool i was worried that you guys will want them as soon as possible ........OK then ill get the rear views to and damn i completely forgot about Descarte's MA but i do have the image saved well ill update you ALL on the pics and my progress, and PLUS there isnt to much to say about Andrei S, so but just the stuff in the seris and its alll covered.

Sorry SonicSP, haven't really noticed. I mean when you minimized them to 270-320px, you can barely noticed the difference until you open them out and blow them up to full size, however Descartes' MA is still missing a pic, can you add that in?

Wasabi 21:07, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

p.s. SOMEONE find the Qan T pic lol Shindy00 23:24, May 30, 2010 (UTC)

I've posted HQ pics of the 4 main movie MS [both front/back plus transform harute and replaced in articles] a few weeks ago........didn't anyone notice? -.- I cropped them from a HQ magazine scan.

I did a previous LQ version before that and Taikage said "they will suffice until better pics come" in the Zabanya discussion page. The moment I was done with that, I found an HQ scan and had to do the whole thing again [crop/backgrounderase/etc] with the HQ version and I've posted them back in the articles again. They appear small in the articles but they'll show their differences when viewing them in full screen; when compared to the previous LQ front/back version I did. Although I think some front LQ linearts before that were done by someone else. The weaponless 00Q is not mine though I posted it here, I requested that one from one of the forums I usually visit as a request although I'm think I did the rear one.-SonicSP 21:00, June 1, 2010 (UTC)

Update: ok i got ALL the front views of the gundams done working on the back, Harute was difficult but i finally got it. As for that MA for descartes im working on that but in may turn out to be fairly small, any of you guys got a bigger pic. BTW how big do you guys want them cause hell when i did them they were the size of my page, i can bum it down though. I STILL can't find the HQ Qan T pic though........ DamnShindy00 00:36, June 2, 2010 (UTC)

What's the prognosis on that pic of GNMA-Y0002V Gaderaza? I thought you already finished and posted it up already. Wasabi 18:28, June 2, 2010 (UTC)

sorry dude but ive been working on the Gundams, i guess i got to caught up with them to really care about the MA i know you said i should make it a priorty. Wasabi ILL GET it done tonight and post it either later tonight or in the Morning!!!!!!Shindy00 19:22, June 2, 2010 (UTC)

Anything else?
Hey man sorrry it took forever, well not being to honest but the truth is even tho i do have skills and all the free time I really didnt have my photoshop up and running so i have been waiting for a while but now i have it. It only takes me like a day if not even that to edit pics cause im good at it, anyway ill tell you that that wont happen again(taking to long).

But here is what i was gonna say i will have Harute's Pics up by tonight(stuff to do first) and i wanted to ask you if there is anything else that you wont have the time for just let me know. Thanks Shindy00 19:02, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

For now, as i mentioned earlier, the minior characters are seriously missing information. I would appreciate you filling in the blanks. Bronx01 seems to be working on Feldt, so you can work on the other lesser characters. You can easily start with the least featured, that way you can work through them pretty fast and onto the more developed characters. Also, if you noticed any missing pics for the characters or mobile weapons, please find the pics and add them in. Thanks man.

Wasabi 19:09, June 3, 2010 (UTC)

Hey man i know i probably should of asked you Sooner but i kept forgeting uuhhh do you know any REALLY good places that you look for info (sources) i really just been browsing and it would be nice if there are a few really good ones people go to alot thanks.Shindy00 17:45, June 24, 2010 (UTC)

About User: BlitzGundam
Is there anything we can do about him, in light of his recent deletion of the infobox on the ZGMF-1000/A1 Gunner ZAKU Warrior ? Its not the first time he's gone about vandalizing pages. Kuruni must be getting annoyed, having to clean up his vandalism.

~ Azkaiel 05:54, June 9, 2010 (UTC)

Usually we find the admin and ban the guy for messing around. Usually I would give stern warning first, but if the person willfully causing havoc, we can take more immediate action. Find the admin and tell him about it; I forgot who's the admin though.

Why Does A Lot of CB MS Have GN Arms?
Can I please know why a lot of Celestial Being suit's have GN-Arms listed as compatibility including the 0 Gundam? Do you have the source that states this to be the case? Because I'm starting to see it as an eyesore because even Exia and Dynames had to have specialize GN Arms designed for them. The Assault Container I understand, but the GN Arms seems to be quite MS specific and we can just list their compatibility because they "fit" physically. Optional equipment must be listed on what was designed to be possible or at least usable in possible plan.

If we want to be really liberal about this, we can just place ANY GN weapon and place it on any mobile suit just because they can be used. For example, listing the GN Pistols and GN Hand Missile as Astraea F's optional a year ago would be wrong since even if they are usable we have absolutely no connection between these specific weapons and the Astraea F. But listing them after the new Astraea F is seen using them is not because even though they belong to other Gundams mainly in design, these weapons actually have a connection with Astraea F now in terms of presented media.

Here's an example, the HG Kyrios manual says that the "Tail Unit" as its called [not to be confused with the Tail Booster that appears later and is KYrios specific] can be used by the other Gundams as well. I'm happy to classify it as a optional equipment for the 3rd Generation Gundams then, because we have a stated source that specifies something that can possibly be used. If we do not limit ourselves to the 00 media telling us what can planned to be used with what, then it means we can literally go and say every MS is usable with every other MS's weapons, which is just bad because such is not a planned standard. With Astraea F finally have used the GN Pistols, I find it okay to list them as optional equipment since its became that way in the story and in the case of the Tail Unit, there is a statement of it being a more general versatility weapons for other Gundams but you cant say the same for the GN Bazooka, GN Submachinegun, GN Sniper Rifle, etc. Anybody can take and use these weapons, we know this to be very possible due to GN Flag's Throne Beam Saber and Astraea F using 3rd Gen Gundam's weapons which tells us the versatility of the GN weapons but we don't list them [bazooka, submachinegun, sniper rifle, etc] as optional equipment for "anybody" not because it isnt possible from a mecha standpoint but it never appeared so in a media story standpoint or at the very least a statement like in the case of the HG Kyrios's manual Tail Unit.-SonicSP 12:22, June 22, 2010 (UTC)
