More i-appli BEMANI games

It turns out there's more i-appli BEMANi games than just DDR as seen in these pages. However, I don't know how to properly add a new page and I would like these to be added for me if possible. Sorry about that but yeah lol thank u however if u do add them!!! --booty (talk) 02:32, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

  • jubeat is already here, as mobile and mobile2. For the other series, I'll add stubs for them right now. Thanks! --FinalOffset (talk) 04:22, 23 February 2020 (UTC)

The Twin Guitar charts in the early GFDM games

How should they be handled? Specially considering the secret notes in GF1 and GF2(which there's very few info from what i know)
--TikalFan9000 (talk) 02:20, 22 May 2020 (UTC)

  • I've thought about them in the past. I'm going to make modifications in some templates so I'll see how to integrate them. --FinalOffset (talk) 21:07, 22 May 2020 (UTC)
    • In case you did not notice, i added a proof of concept "template" for the GFDM songs prior to GF5dm4 in my user page. Considering the difficulty unification that happened in those games, would it be better to use that rendition or to alter the already existing chart template?
      --TikalFan9000 (talk) 02:14, 26 May 2020 (UTC)
    • As I said, I'm planning to modify the actual template in order to make room for older GF/DM games, as I'm not a fan of putting another table into each page. I'll see what I can do. --FinalOffset (talk) 05:51, 26 May 2020 (UTC)

Gallery Page Clean-up Concept

a while back i shared a concept for cleaning up gallery pages to mod t7r
the proposal is to basically shorten the description of the entries in order to remove some redundancy

the guidelines i have in mind are as follows
- putting them in chronological order would be a rather good idea
- if a song has only one jacket/banner/etc in a series, one can put the name of the series as a whole in the description. if not, the game in which the graphic first appeared must be specified (EXCEPTION: the song and an alternate version for it debutting in the same game, and having no different variations afterwards, in which the game doesn't need to be specified)

- for difficulty variants, the name of the difficulty could be put in paranthesis after the game/series name

- for alternate graphics (e.g. upper charts, dancerush's different "versions", tsuminagara's "midnight" jacket in reflec), the parenthesis is only needed in the alternate version, like these

- and also unused stuff (5-10's jackets as an example)

what do you think? hopefully i explained it somewhat clear

  • I kinda like some of the changes, but it would be a big effort to change everything that I don't see it being a priority right now. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 20:12, 21 November 2021 (UTC)

Thanks for the help.

Just wanted to say thanks for fixing any errors I've made while updating artist/song pages. Movesp (talk) 15:20, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

  • No problem, thank you for making the pages! --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 15:34, 3 August 2022 (UTC)

Regarding the revert on Monkey Dance

Hi, was wondering regarding the rationale regarding the revert on the change I made on Monkey Dance. Given that the longer versions of Monkey Dance '09 are directly related to Monkey Dance as direct remixes of it similar to Butterfly or ABSOLUTE's song connection sections. Would it be better in Longer Version -> Short Version format instead?
Example:

  • Long version
    • Short playable version
    • Alternative version

-Movesp (talk) 19:19, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

  • It's something that has been done for years here. We want to avoid cluttering pages with redundant information. Since Monkey Dance '09 has its own page, their long versions and other related songs should be only in that page, not in the original Monkey Dance's. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 19:49, 9 September 2022 (UTC)

video production info with images

hello! i have a question regarding video production info translations; how would ones featuring commentary on images (in the same page as all of the other music comments) be done and formatted??
specifically, i'm looking into translating jet coaster girl's designer comments, i'm not aware of any other designer comments on other songs that are presented in a similar way (this is excluding ones like taratta dance's, where there are images of the characters to go along with their bios, but aren't needed to understand them), but regardless i'd prefer to know your stance on how it should be handled before going ahead with it.
in this specific case, should the concept art and the commentary on it be omitted entirely (which i'd personally prefer to not do), or should it be included, and if so, how should it be formatted and such? thanks in advance!

Hiroshi Takeyasu only one picture

Hey man.

About Hiroshi Takeyasu. I'm pretty surprised that there is only one picture of him. I guess he is scared of being taken pictures which reminds me of Yoko Taro when he always hides himself with a mask. Marsoff (talk) 23:51, 29 August 2023 (UTC)

  • He has a more recent photo, but we're not using it since it's from one of his private social media accounts. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 02:05, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

You mean Facebook? Marsoff (talk) 02:16, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

I think that photo was taken back in 2013 Marsoff (talk) 02:17, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

But anyway, I'm kinda surprised that by searching him the internet only has one photo of him. But any other photo doesn't need to be published here for sure. Marsoff (talk) 02:18, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

  • Yes, Facebook. It's more recent than the photo that we have here (which is from an early pop'n live event, can't remember which one). --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 02:34, 30 August 2023 (UTC)

About Lala Moore

Greetings,

I'd like to ask you something. As far as I know, it was you who provided the info about Lala Moore being German, can I ask you how do you know that? I'm curious, because there's almost no info about her! I've never played any of these games, but I played a videogame named Bust-A-Groove for MANY years. Some of the artists "re-recorded" the songs into English and they remained unknown for many years until now. I was able to find almost all of them and, despite not having a "confirmation" about Lala Moore, I know she sang two song of the game because she sounds like her. Could you take a look? These are the songs from the game.

https://youtu.be/K0EqZ5qGmWs?t=14

https://youtu.be/JqXV4ZJSkzo?t=49

As you can hear, she has a kind of "accent" too.

Anyway, thank you for your time!

  • The tidbit about Noriko being German is from the promotional description for her MOMENT album that can be found in various websites. It might have originated in a defunct, official website for the album, but I haven't checked if it existed. I'll take a look at the songs that you linked later. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 19:21, 6 October 2023 (UTC)

Oh, I see, thanks! Despite I didn't find anything, it makes sense. About the songs, I think it's her 100%, but I'm curious about your opinion.

  • They sound a bit like her voice. The description I mentioned is included in sites like this one. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 01:31, 8 October 2023 (UTC)

Thank you!

Hey! Thank you for your help updating the rest of those songs on the Wii DDR games. I really appreciate it. The European Wii DDR games do not have a space between the word "party" and the numbers 2, 3, 4, and 5. So updating songs on the European DDR Wii games needed to be done. Again, thank you for your help! --LD1998 (talk) 16:03, 30 May 2024 (UTC)

Re: Revert on Nyan Cat

Hello. I was wondering what your reasoning is behind reverting the trivia about Nyan Cat's video being the official video, as shown in the BeatStream play movie here. How is it any different from the same trivia on This game or Synchrogazer? movesp (talk) 14:08, 2 December 2024 (UTC)

  • The two examples that you gave have different official videos (anime opening and promotional video), the Trivia in both songs is to state which one is used. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 14:24, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
I still struggle to see any reason to revert it since the song uses a unique video which is worth mentioning. movesp (talk) 15:00, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
We don't list as Trivia every song with a unique video; see the whole beatmania IIDX series. It's not worth mentioning. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 15:17, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
We do in regards where the movie eliminated onscreen DDR dancers or played in on a small screen (also there is a whole for this trivia). In regards to your previous point about different official videos, Nyan Cat does have another official video (or at least claims self to be one) in the form of the meme video. What really does pique my interest though is why you don't think they are worth mentioning. Isn't insignificant facts the very definition of trivia? movesp (talk) 16:06, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
Yes, we do in DDR *just* because we clarify if it's played fullscreen or not. My point still stands, and won't be changed. The official video for Nyan Cat is the one that was uploaded to the artist's channel. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 16:13, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
First of all, please do not remove the indenting, bullet points are for new replies to the initial topic, not replies to a comment, adding a new bullet point for every new reply makes prolonged conversations harder to follow. (I recommend reading and following Wikipedia's guidelines on threads and indentation). Secondly, just to recap and make sure we are on the same page, am I wrong in assuming you initially reverted because you feel it's not worth listing the trivia? movesp (talk) 17:05, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
It's not hard to see why I reverted the Trivia: every single other mention of "uses its unique video" in Trivia has an additional reason of why it's mentioned (the two anime openings that you brought up, the DDR examples). This is something that we have established in this wiki about Trivia; it has to have a reason to be included. I recommend you to read more song articles to get what we aim as Trivia worthy or not. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 17:24, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
It is very hard to understand someone else's reasoning at a glance with blank edit summaries, which is why I started this topic in the first place. You say it's an established manual of style (does RemyWiki even have written guidelines/MoS outside the site rules?), but this is not mentioned where exactly these are on this site. Furthermore, I cannot gather from your replies how many the "we" you refer to are. movesp (talk) 18:18, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
"We", as the admin and mod team. I've already given you the answer for your main question, so that's my final word regarding this. --GlaringRadiokid (talk) 21:07, 2 December 2024 (UTC)
Understandable, thank you for clarifying about your position as I was not aware of this. I will not pursue this issue any further. Have a good day. movesp (talk) 15:46, 3 December 2024 (UTC)
