@animalcrossing

The animal crossing twitter that is run by Isabelle is a great source for information on small details and pictures it can be found on twitter and at the bottom of the official animal crossing site

Enjoy ^-^

Needed Art Pages

We need pages for the two new paintings from Animal Crossing: New Leaf They are Wild Painting and Good Painting also are we going to make a sculptures category to host the new art group?

FINALLY... I added a chart on how to tell the fakes in Animal Crossing: New Leaf Here if you guys want to make the headers of it yellow like the other charts go right ahead!

Thanks!

I can create those pages later tonight when I get the chance, unless someone gets to them before me - a sculpture category sounds good, too.

And nice work! I can format that later, too. Thanks for the heads up, ~SuperHamster Talk 13:13, 18 June 2013 (EDT)

IGN&Thonky Guide

I'm not a big fan of IGN and I never saw this Thonky site before but they both have pretty good guides with info needed on pages like Badges IGN Wikis - AC:NL Guide Thonky - AC:NL Guide - unsigned comment from Grekox (talk • contribs)

Personality "more" template

Since the same blurb appears on every villager page, I figured why not make it a template? Here you can see it in action. Good idea? Bad idea? — imjon ^(talk) 14:43, 7 July 2013 (EDT)

I always felt something needed to be done about it, and am glad something is finally in use. Super ^(duh...)Alpaca 16:03, 7 July 2013 (EDT)

Public Works Project Category

Me and SuperHamster we're talking about how people are gonna be more likely to look for a public works project like illuminated heart under a public works category then locations so now if we could put any things that are public works projects under the category that would be great! Grekox 12:40, 13 July 2013 (EDT)

Edit: Also if you could use this new template that adds a price and size section to the building infobox! Grekox 13:11, 13 July 2013 (EDT)

FlashMP3 extension

Not sure of a better place to bring this up, but could the FlashMP3 extension be installed? Someone's already used it on some of the song pages, and the mp3 files are sitting waiting to be enjoyed. — imjon ^(talk) 14:49, 18 July 2013 (EDT)

We did have some sort of mp3 extension at some point, but it has since been broken as far as I know, which is why we've started migrating to embedding Youtube music videos instead...if this extension will work, though, that'd be great! Want to let Jake know and see what he can do? He does all the fancy-shmancy server things. ~SuperHamster Talk 14:54, 18 July 2013 (EDT)

Nookipédia

I think this Wiki is great. It is terrific ! It could be even better if it could be made multilingual like Wikipedia is. I'm proposing we start with adding French version of Nookipedia with links between corresponding articles - just like in Wikipedia. --Ocre 01:51, 28 August 2013 (EDT)

It's a great idea - I don't think it would be feasible, though. I'm not 100% sure, but I believe the subject has been brought up in the past. One of the biggest problems would be the lack of editors. We'd need a pretty large team of devoted French speakers to translate articles. More importantly, we'd also need active French-speaking staff members to help monitor a French wiki. English Nookipedia is currently doing great in terms of activity, but even we are quite a bit away from completely covering New Leaf. Beyond that, in periods of low activity, activity is pretty dang low - and would be even more so on alternative language wikis. That's my two-cents, though. It would be interesting to see what would happen if we started a French or Spanish wiki. ~SuperHamster Talk 14:02, 28 August 2013 (EDT)

I'm not against it either. I would be more lenient on doing a Spanish Nookipedia since I know the Spanish names for several articles. I am somewhat experienced with the Spanish language. Let me know what you guys think. --Wookiee123 15:56, 28 August 2013 (EDT)

I'm from Montréal, Québec. French is my first language. I have about 10 000 visits on my site per months right now. It sure isn't what Nookipedia is receiving, but some of that traffic could be funelled into a Nookipédia (in French). I was looking at having an encyclopedia of some sort as such are lacking right now in French. I think both sites could feed into one another...--Ocre (talk) 18:27, 28 August 2013 (EDT)

I'm not against this idea either, and like Wookie123, I have some experience with Spanish. Before we create any additional wikis though, we need to ensure that there will be users to support it. Another site I run, Wikisimpsons, has several subwikis in other languages and none of them are particularly active. If we are to create Spanish or French versions of Nookipedia, we will need the support of a decent number of users (5-10 ideally) who are comfortable with that language and willing to dedicate time to start the project. It will also require some work from our English contributors to set up the interlanguage links between articles. If you can come up with the user support for either a Spanish or French Nookipedia, I'd happily set aside some time to get the site up and running. --Jake 21:04, 28 August 2013 (EDT)

I get that you want to be sure of a base number of users for each Wiki before putting work behind an interlingual wiki but finding users beforehand might be hard enough. "Build it and they will come" as goes the expression. But I totally understand you --Ocre (talk) 00:36, August 29, 2013 (EDT)
