Xros Wars images
Would it be possible to get future images in .gif, to match the format on the previous series' anime images?KrytenKoro06 08:54, 19 April 2011 (CDT)

Accel
Hey Grandy, do you mind taking a look at my question in Greymon's talk page regarding non X-version Greymon not appearing in Digimon Accel? Thanks! --Deviate

Toei images
Hello. Do you mind if I use XW Toei image do you upload (e.g. Splashmon, Olegmon) on my Polish Wiki? Thanks in advance, Final Cannon 18:05, 9 June 2011 (CDT)

Digimon World X
I got this. You need to credit Erry of KHwiki.net on them.KrytenKoro06 01:01, 14 August 2011 (CDT)

Wanna admin?
Let me know if you'd be interested :) --Koroku 22:02, 14 January 2012 (CST)
 * I'll think about it, please give me some time. Anyway, thanks for the offer. :-) --Grandy02 03:30, 15 January 2012 (CST)
 * Please say yes... heh :) --Koroku 09:27, 16 January 2012 (CST)

Can you remove Remove this page?
Remove this page plz! == A lol of members making non-digimon websites.

Can you create Talk:Garurumon-species?
Well you have to make it. It have Were Garurumon also Metal Garurumon also there black and x antibody form. User:Digmon

Featured
I dunno if you'd even want to, but would you be interested in admin access to the Facebook page? I think it'd be a nice use of it for when the featured stuff changes, and since you seem to be doing those mostly now... :) Lemme know. (Or, if you have Facebook period, you can have adminship) --Koroku 14:58, 18 March 2012 (CDT)
 * To be honest, I'm not interested in editing anything but the wiki pages themselves, sorry. Nonetheless, thanks for the offer. --Grandy02 13:11, 19 March 2012 (CDT)

Dictionary profiles
Sorry about the wait on these, I'm hitting them now along with the Darknesses. Also, I noticed that someone edited the Marsmon article. Can you tell me if any other of my translations have been modified since I posted them?KrytenKoro06 22:49, 9 June 2012 (CDT)
 * No problem. In case of edited profiles, the only ones I recall are Dukemon and Dagomon. --Grandy02 04:51, 10 June 2012 (CDT)

AutoWikiBrowser
I don't have permission to perform automatic edits, but I think you do. Would you mind running AutoWikiBrowser with the substitutions set up to replace half-width kana symbols with full width (periods, commas, katakana) on all articles in the Digimon Life profile category? I think KaiserGreymon's article has the half-width symbols, to get you started.KrytenKoro06 01:00, 30 June 2012 (CDT)
 * I've asked Koroku whether it is possible to give you the permission to use that tool (I haven't used it yet), I hope that's okay for now. By the way, maybe you could take a look at OpenTalk and see if there's anything you can help with? I even would like to ask more questions on talk pages, but I lack the motivation to do so when that list only keeps getting longer. --Grandy02 09:06, 1 July 2012 (CDT)

Nice to meet you!
Hello, Grandy02 (do you have a nickname or something? I dunno, Grandy02 sounds like a machine name). I'm a newbie in this wikia, but I got a certain experience with wikis (i was system operator in my country's wiki). Why you don't tell me how you all work/edit here? I can be more useful like this. 09:50, 26 November 2012 (CST)
 * Hi, welcome to Wikimon, nice to meet you, too. :-) "Grandy02" is derived from my real name (my real-life nickname being "Andy"), the "02" was added because "Grandy" was already in use when I registered at a website for the first time almost a decade ago. If you look at the "Recent changes" page, you might see that Wikimon currently doesn't have that many users who are regularly active. I joined this site in late 2010, and mainly edit Digimon species pages, adding (untranslated) profiles, appearances and sprites to them. Since long-time admin Ainz has become inactive, I also update contents on the main page. But there are a lot of other things to add as well, the Tasks template gives a good summary on that issue. Also, lots of pages have empty sections, as you have probably noticed. In any way, have fun at Wikimon. :-) --Grandy02 14:22, 26 November 2012 (CST)

Oh, oh... I see! Thanks buddy! I'll work hard in my way! *specially reverting vandalism in articles, because I hate vandalism.* See ya! ...Later. (?) Take care ʕ • ᴥ • ʔ 15:49, 26 November 2012 (CST)

How to Become the Admin?
--digimonX 00:58, 19 March 2013 (CDT)

Hello, you have to ask Koroku or Devkyu. I didn't ask them before, though, Koroku asked me. --Grandy02 10:42, 19 March 2013 (CDT)

Thanks--digimonx 11:51, 19 March 2013 (CDT)

A number of them are delayed-posting spambots, so you'll have to deal with it for a bit longer. Sorry. If someone contacts you about getting an account, use Special:AddUser --Koroku 12:13, 21 March 2013 (CDT)

Re: Re:Digitize Digimon List
Hi Grandy, sorry for such a late reply. I have not played through too many cycles of Digimon, but here are the ones that I can confirm:

Baby: Botamon, Dodomon, Jyarimon, Poyomon, Yuramon (I can confirm that these are the only 5 you can get)

Baby II: Budmon, Gigimon, Koromon, Tokomon, Wanyamon (I can confirm that these are the only 5 you can get)

Child: Agumon, Gaomon, Gomamon, Guilmon, Patamon (and 8 other ???s)

Adult: Gaogamon, Greymon, Growmon, Seadramon, Tailmon (and 14 other ???s)

Perfect: Angewomon, Blue Meramon, Mach Gaogamon (and 17 other ???s)

Ultimate: Marin Angemon (and 21 other ???s)

I guess I'll notify you when I get more? And should I go ahead and reduce the list for Baby II or should I let you handle it?

Thanks. Jun 16:10, 16 April 2013 (CDT)

Hi Grandy, I am currently working on the Unobtainable Digimon list, and it just never occurred to me that the Vitium can be classified as Digimon >.> But I guess it DOES have 3 levels, so I'll go ahead and include it. Thanks! Jun 13:10, 20 April 2013 (CDT)

Hi Grandy, sorry to bother you once again. There are 5 unobtainable Baby II Digimon in the list. However, they appear nowhere in the game, and only appear in the animated opening scene. Should we still include these 5 Digimon on the list? Thanks! --Jun 23:16, 26 April 2013 (CDT)
 * Hey Grandy, thanks for adding all the opening only Digimon on the list! I will continue to work on completing the list.


 * On a side note, do you know who added DORUgamon, DORUgremon, Sealsdramon, and Paildramon to the previous list? AKA on what sort of "promotional material" did they appear on? Because I have a hunch that whoever saw DORUmon just automatically assumed DORUgamon and DORUgremon (ridiculous that DORUmon is Unobtainable to begin with), and I have completed the whole game (minus a few Colosseum battles/tournaments) without running into any of the 4. (It is possible that they appear as collectible cards, as I do not have too many cards yet). And we are NOT adding the card-only Digimon as "unobtainable Digimon" are we? or else the list will be HUGE. Well, I add more as I find out more. Thanks for your helps! --Jun 13:39, 27 April 2013 (CDT)


 * Hi Grandy. I can confirm that Sealsdramon and Paildramon are cards in the game. I suspect the same for DORUgamon and DORUgremon (as Alphamon is a card as well, if that means anything). I will remove these 4 Digimon from the list until further notice (aka until I run into them in the Colosseum, maybe. But I highly doubt it). --Jun 13:22, 29 April 2013 (CDT)

Re: Digivice Burst and Pendulum X 2.5
Hi Grandy. Those were meant to be temporary removals as I go through every single source to confirm. The thing is that I was sleeping (different time zone most likely), so I had to halt my progress.

I found out that Monzaemon and Vamdemon, along with several others, can be fought after a specific Plate Charge in order to win special items. I'm pretty sure they're not obtainable though. I will make the changes today.

Removing Pendulum X 2.5 was my bad, as apparently 100 of them existed, which explains Ulforce V-dramon X-Antibody's appearance, replacing Dinotigemon. I will make these changes today as well.

Thanks for keeping up with my edits! --Jun 13:30, 10 May 2013 (CDT)

HCO Template
Hi, thanks for your help with the template! :) But I just wanted to ask if instead of using templates to input the Japanese names, whether it's possible to directly input the Japanese names? Because some card names like 'Nature Spirits' already have templates, but they're different from the actual card names; also I think it would be less troublesome not having to create a new page for each card? The current HC Digimon card templates also have roughly the same problem, where under the special abilities box, the way the abilities are worded in Japanese have changed over the years but the template can only show one style of wording; it would be easier to input the Japanese text directly for each card instead. It's okay if it's too much trouble though, I don't know how hard all this coding is and I already appreciate the help with the templates! --Garmmon 03:40, 26 May 2013 (CDT)
 * Hello, you are right, I didn't have thought of that. I hope the template now inlcudes all things you wanted. :-) The "mysterious number" can be added with "typenum" and appears under the Type. --Grandy02 09:55, 28 May 2013 (CDT)
 * I think it should have everything! I'll get back to you if I run into any problems :P And alright, I'll go back and add those to the card pages when I have time. Thanks for the help!! --Garmmon 12:52, 28 May 2013 (CDT)

You really should get around to making up a user page of some sort. :P --Koroku (talk) 02:37, 4 June 2013 (CDT)

Bandai Art
Hi Grandy02! I've been wathcing your profile and I take care about this Test. I think I can help in this part because there's a website which include all this images in a better quality. Here is the link: link. I hope it will be useful. Thanks for reading and sorry for the grammar.
 * Hello, thanks for the link. I looked for several images, many are the same as those on Wikimon, but some really are in better quality. I'll look at it again later. --Grandy02 (talk) 12:24, 18 July 2013 (CDT)

Collectors and Crusader Cards
How are you guys getting the new images?KrytenKoro06 (talk) 22:02, 18 July 2013 (CDT)
 * In case of Collectors, I'm just trying out numbers in the URL Yuetmoon told you (otherwise I wouldn't know), like this (currently the highest number, the next cards are found under number 1500 and up, but are mostly item and evolution cards and repeats and such). The cards in original design are found under this URL. I have no clue about Crusader cards. Grandy02 (talk) 05:27, 19 July 2013 (CDT)

Parukeruru-san
Hey, just so you know, Parukeruru-san, who originally was helping Card Terminal, is donating his scans here to Wikimon. They may be duplicates to what were on Card Terminal, but since he made the original scans, they should be fine.

Just so you know :) --Koroku (talk) 23:00, 26 July 2013 (CDT)
 * Okay, thanks for the information! --Grandy02 (talk) 09:45, 27 July 2013 (CDT)

Cards
Hi! Why have you deleted many of the cards I've uploaded? I said Devkyu they aren't from With the Will Cards Terminal...Charles.929 (talk) 05:34, 1 September 2013 (CDT)
 * Hello, please compare the scans from the Chinese site with the scans found under the URL Devkyu told you about on his talk page. They are exactly the same (though the contrast has been altered), the Chinese site probably took them without permission. --Grandy02 (talk) 05:44, 1 September 2013 (CDT)

Image credits
How do you credit images here in Wikimon? I'm asking because we have a certain system for this in Digimon Wiki, and I don't see anything about scan creditation in Wikimon's rules. 21:48, November 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * Personally, I usually add the source page of an image in its page, but I'm not aware of any rules on giving credit in Wikimon. You should ask Devkyu about this, he has written the rules. --Grandy02 (talk) 08:28, 4 November 2013 (CST)

Images
I noticed there are many screenshots being uploaded and posted in the species pages. Are all of those really neccessary. I mean, they aren't demonstrating anything and have no clear purpose. If it were control art, I would be okay, but these are screenshots that seem to have no clear purpose. 20:05, November 8, 2013 (UTC)
 * This one, for example, seems to be subject of controversy by Digni. He is reuploading another image on its place which is not even from the episode the title claims to be, which seems like a violation of the rules. 02:04, November 9, 2013 (UTC)/23:04, November 8, 2013 (Brasília, summertime)
 * Well, those screenshots show some scenes of the anime the Digimon appears in, and it's nice to have those sections illustrated instead of just plain text. They have been added since Wikimon's early days, and I don't think that something's wrong with them. In case of that Lilihmon image, I've noticed that Digni and Charles switched it many times. Next time I'll block the image page, but for now it has been replaced by another one. --Grandy02 (talk) 14:05, 10 November 2013 (CST)
 * The problem is, they don't demonstrate anything unique. I don't see why it's necessary to have screenshots of them just for the sake of having screenshots. They are redundant because these Digimon have the same appearance in every series. I don't see why it's needed to demonstrate them.
 * But the Lilithmon image, the current version is the wrong image (and from the wrong episode), and I assume it's taken from Digimon Wiki by the file proportions. If you are going to keep the image here instead of deleting it, then revert it and block it now. 22:06, November 10, 2013 (UTC)
 * I still think these images are useless as they don't demonstrate anything unique outside of arbitrarily random anime scenes, but Digni keeps removing images when you told him multiple times to not do it. Why don't you block him? 09:45, December 3, 2013 (UTC)
 * Maybe I'm a little more "forgiving" than Devkyu. Anyway, I will start a discussion on the Community Portal page to clarify whether the number of screenshots should have a fixed limit. --Grandy02 (talk) 10:57, 5 December 2013 (CST)

Crusader Artwork
Hi Grandy! I would like to know what we finally do with the Crusader artwork as we mentioned the other day. We should finally put all of them into the PNG format or we should keep the JPG format? In my opinion, we should keep the JPG format because not all of them can be found with the PNG format and that would not be aesthetic (Fairimon Artwork box is an example); however the truth is that PNG format mantains the tranparency and the quality of the image. Anyway, I expect your decision. Charles.929 (talk) 11:39, 14 March 2014 (CDT)
 * If the original format is PNG, with transparency and all, it should remain PNG and not converted to a lossy format like JPG. I don't think that "aesthetics" depend on the used file formats. However, images that are in JPG format from the start (e.g. the Reference Book artwork) should not be converted to PNG if there are no modifications made or something, as that would cause nothing but an increase in file size while the image would still look exactly the same. --Grandy02 (talk) 06:56, 16 March 2014 (CDT)
