I wanna be a member! --Pachisu123 (talk) 11:13, December 28, 2015 (EST)

I've added you. :) (finally)Sunmarshsignature.png (talk) 11:59, May 17, 2016 (EDT)

I want to join!

Man, the incomplete sections are bugging me, I would be glad to join! I will try my best! Howdy. Mario und Prinzessin Peach.jpg Princess Peach Bulborb Buffet.jpg 23:16, May 10, 2016 (EDT)

I added you a little while ago, just wanted to let you know. ;P Sunmarshsignature.png (talk) 11:59, May 17, 2016 (EDT)

How do we determine whether a page is 'complete' or not?

I did my best sorting all of our pages into the three categories designated by Mario (talk | contribs | logs) - Completed, Images Needed, and Incomplete. However, I wanted to ask whether or not we were going to require item images for AC titles prior to ACNL in order to consider the page complete. For example, almost none of our pages have images from Animal Crossing: Wild World included in the item tables. However, if these pages had ACNL images in their gallery I moved them into the Completed category. Also, I have added HHD icons to nearly all tables in place of their ACNL counterparts, my assumption was, however, that we still wanted to have ACNL images in the gallery section and so those without ACNL images in the gallery I marked as needing images. Was this the right thing to do? Any clarification would be great. Sunmarshsignature.png (talk) 11:59, May 17, 2016 (EDT)

In my view, a 'complete' pages needs to meet these criteria: all info in the tables should be completed, all NL tables should have HHD images, all NL images should be in the gallery, and all tables should be the latest TableContent/Header/Footer format. We should probably try and include older item images as well, but don't ask me how we'd go about actually doing that! Therefore, until we find a way, your solution is the best one. :P Red (talk) Red Snapper WW Sprite.png 12:13, May 17, 2016 (EDT)
We'll probably have to obtain images the old fashioned way, via emulators, and I'm sure that kind of stuff also allows for cheats that allow all items to be unlocked in the catalog. That's something to consider though I don't see anyone doing this and I don't think it'll happen in a long while. On one hand, I do think there should be images from the older games, but on the other hand, are the models that changed? Why upload practically the same thing but in different games ? Mario Signature.png 19:04, May 17, 2016 (EDT)
Well, I agree that we shouldn't go through the trouble of acquiring images for DnM, DnM+, ACGC and DnMe- we should just choose one as they all use the same models (ALTHOUGH, the N64 models used lower quality textures if you didn't use the expansion pack, so in the very distant future if someone REALLY needs something to do they could attempt to document that). Although there are some items exclusive to each game (I think) so we'd have to acquire a few from each one. I know that ACCF has some updated models/skins from ACWW. What I'm not sure of is how different ACWW's models are from ACGC/DnMe+. At the very least there are new items we'd have to get images for anyway. Also I was thinking we'd just scan the guides for the games in and crop the images. *shrug* Sunmarshsignature.png (talk) 20:55, May 17, 2016 (EDT)

Question

Hey everyone part of Project Furniture I just had a question what happened to the Campus Set that counts towards the HHA and Box Set that counts towards HRA in Wild World and City Folk as those are definitely sets I think so anyway just wanted to ask if you all think it'd be alright to change them back or not. :) And sorry u haven't been as active as I used to been busy with a big move going on right now, however I hope you've all been very well. <3 - unsigned comment from NateKimble (talkcontribs)

I believe they lacked a very specific designation in the game files and so the categorization was purely arbitrary, they were moved to a created Miscellaneous furniture page. From an organizational standpoint, it makes sense avoid having to create other arbitrary groupings, which could possibly be a complete mess. Mario Signature.png 23:32, October 24, 2016 (EDT)
Oh alright gotcha thanks for letting me know about that so I don't try to re-edit again so sorry for the inconvenience. I just wanted to let everyone know I'm back so I'm glad to be back after all that time away to long for me anyway haha. -- NateKimble (talk) 23:46, October 24, 2016 (EDT)

Relocate older game lists to subpages?

I saw that in Miscellaneous furniture, we have links to lists as a subpage. You think it would be a good idea to transfer that information in all other furniture pages to their respective subpages as well? For instance Blue Series wouldn't have four tables, but one table from Animal Crossing: New Leaf and that table has a header: "other games" and we move those other three tables to three different subpages. What do you think? Mario Signature.png 22:35, December 19, 2016 (EST)

Most likely sunmarsh split Miscellaneous furniture because of its sheer length, but pages like Blue Series are much shorter. Also, only the New Leaf table is 'open' by default anyway; the others are all neatly collapsed and in no way intrusive. Given that splitting would also make navigating a pain, my instinct is to not split, but I'd be interested to hear if anyone else has an opinion on this.

I brought this up in July of 2015 (see Standard page layout) and SNES was very much opposed, as were you Mario, but you changed your mind. :P I think the current setup works fine, but I will say that coming back to the site I don't know how much I like the fact that the ACNL list is at the bottom of the page and you have to scroll past all of the older lists to get to it. I agree that the collapsed lists are not obtrusive, but I wonder if there is a better solution. I think that what this setup has going for it, is that it's very clear where the information on each game is. I feel that if we move information to subpages with little links it's going to be easier to miss. That said, as Mario pointed out, the subpages could actually help google traffic because we would have a page called "Blue Series (Animal Crossing: Wild World)". How significant that will be is anyone's guess. For me, this issue is kind of small potatoes. I think what's more important right now is documenting the furniture changes brought about by the Welcome Amiibo update. That and completely revamping the Furniture page in general (oh, and not to mention we haven't covered furniture in HHD at all... despite having most of the HHD furniture icons. >.>).Sunmarshsignature.png (talk) 18:00, December 20, 2016 (EST)
Ahh, so I was opposed. But at the time, I thought about different pages, not subpages, and I was accustomed to how MarioWiki doesn't really use subpages as much as pages. So, now, I'm a bit more open to that. Additionally, if I recall correctly, Bulbapedia uses something similar, where repeating info are relocated in subpages. How does that work for those who do browse that site? Anyway, collapsed lists aren't obtrusive, but they don't decrease loading time at all, keep that in mind, and it's likely a bigger problem on the "list of [...]" pages. Anyhow, I didn't play HHD. Any data-mining on that one? I didn't find any in GameFAQs, so that's why I didn't really do anything about it. Mario Signature.png 12:15, December 21, 2016 (EST)

Does refurbishing change the color information of a furniture?

I've been wondering this for a while. Has anyone tested this, maybe giving a refurbished furniture to a villager and see if the villager reacts any differently? I really wonder how we'd pull that off.... Mario Signature.png 02:23, January 13, 2017 (EST)

Hey Mario, can I join?

Hey Mario I would like to join. I am new to Nookipedia, but I can learn! ~Whitney33 09:45, March 1, 2017 (EST)

Request to join

I would like to join in this project, as I have textures for nearly every wallpaper and flooring from each game up to Animal Crossing: City Folk. In short, I can be of good help.--LoneShadowStar (talk) 11:59, May 6, 2018 (EDT)

Unfortunately this project has been inactive for over a year, and all of the project leaders (Mario, BladeofEvilsBane, sunmarsh) are also inactive. If there's enough interest though, the project could be revived with a new leader. Drago (talk) Drago PC Villager Icon.png 12:08, May 6, 2018 (EDT)
I Support Support that idea, for some reason when the project was active, if you didn't edit for a bit, you'd be removed. I like how Project Villager works where you stay apart of it regardless. Hopefully the new project leader will have this function the same way. ~PoizonMushro0mPoizonMush Sig.png 17:37, May 6, 2018 (EDT)

Data for update/DLC items

I can't find much information on them. Not even the wikia has much aside from images. I can get this, and there's an imgur album of all the refurbished stuff, but the latter is inferior to my current way of just extracting the ROM, getting the models and textures, cutting the UV shells in half, flipping that half, and then rendering it with just the most basic settings. Just a question, how did the GameFAQs guides get their information? Surely, it has to be datamined. Mario Signature.png 21:11, December 10, 2019 (EST)
