To-Do List
Robots in Disguise character pages needing attention:
... yeah...
Screencaps
Your tastes in screencaps is impeccable. :D -- Repowers 01:21, 5 October 2008 (EDT)
- Heh, thanks! :) --abates 01:37, 5 October 2008 (EDT)
- You don't need to use the actual title cards for the main picture of episode articles. Awhile back we decided that those are redundant for the most part, so we've taken to using screencaps of scenes that are pivotal, sum up the episode and are just plain funny. For example The Ultimate Weapon. --FFN 08:50, 5 October 2008 (EDT)
- Aha! Noted. Thanks :) --abates 15:46, 5 October 2008 (EDT)

And again! The BW pages are looking great. Keep 'em coming! -- Repowers 00:37, 30 November 2008 (EST)
- Thanks! Almost halfway though :) --abates 01:31, 30 November 2008 (EST)
This Pic
Could you please retake this shot? It's full of little jaggies - check out the lines on Prime's shoulder and elbow. Thanks. --Monzo 12:08, 12 October 2008 (EDT)
- That's how it looks in the episode - the image they used is from the end of a zooming-out shot in "An Explosive Situation", so it looks like they did a video freeze on the last frame and overlayed the clips on the top monitors. Unfortunately it was the only "someone watching footage on a monitor" shot I could find (there's another identical shot of Prime later on, but it has the same problem). --abates 16:20, 12 October 2008 (EDT)
Kudos
Your RID pages are excellent. Thanks for taking on a task that not many of us are willing to face. -- Repowers 23:31, 21 October 2008 (EDT)
- Thanks! I love the show, so I'm enjoying rewatching it. :) --abates 01:08, 22 October 2008 (EDT)
- Your Quote sections in particular are reminding me of what a fun show it was... particularly in light of what came after. -- Repowers 10:09, 22 October 2008 (EDT)
- So devoutly seconded. -- Greenygal 15:48, 22 October 2008 (EDT)
- Thanks very much for doing the work on these! --Thylacine 2000 10:08, 24 October 2008 (EDT)
- Dude - awesome idea: Can you change the title card of The Ultimate Robot Warrior to an image where Buddha is firing missiles out of his mouth? Because it's so wrong it amuses me. --FFN 05:33, 29 October 2008 (EDT)
Must chime in with thanks. This is simply great work.--RosicrucianTalk 02:57, 22 November 2008 (EST)
- Thanks! :) --abates 03:46, 22 November 2008 (EST)
Armada eps
Jeebus, now you're doing Armada episode recaps! As Repowers said last time with the RID recaps, thanks for doing what many of us are reluctant to do (and I like Armada). --FFN 02:56, 16 November 2008 (EST)
- Just the two for the moment. I want to focus on finishing the RID character pages, but I happened to have the first three episodes of Armada handy. :) --abates 03:07, 16 November 2008 (EST)
More Than Meets the Eye, Part 1
Wondering why you removed the navigation box I put on this article? Admittedly it didn't come out perfectly, but it seemed to work and fulfilled a good function so why not just modify it?Khajidha 15:42, 16 November 2008 (EST)
- Because it's completely redundant? The infobox on the top right does exactly the same thing. - Chris McFeely 15:45, 16 November 2008 (EST)
- Just coming back to admit that I missed that. It does seem a little odd that the navigation box for the first episode doesn't match those for later episodes, but if everyone else wants it that way...Khajidha 15:48, 16 November 2008 (EST)
- Oh, that's just a case of the other pages not having been updated with the newer template yet. We haven't been using the new one for that long. - Chris McFeely 15:50, 16 November 2008 (EST)
- Okay. Didn't mean to cause any trouble.Khajidha 16:02, 16 November 2008 (EST)

- The episode template doesn't support seasons yet which I think is why it's not in wider use. --abates 16:09, 16 November 2008 (EST)
BW request
Hey, if you've got you Season 2 disks handy, could you grab a shot of Quickstrike as he introduces himself? Specifically I think there's a moment when the camera's at ground level with him, and you see both his cobra and scorpion heads clearly at the same time. It'd make a great main pic for the Fuzor article. -- Repowers 20:15, 6 December 2008 (EST)
- This one? :) --abates 20:26, 6 December 2008 (EST)
- That one. Awesome! -- Repowers 20:27, 6 December 2008 (EST)
Appearances
The way we've been doing it is that appearances doesn't necessarily mean "as they appear on screen" but it can also mean whomever is heard first. --FFN 23:56, 31 December 2008 (EST)
- Oh, I see. I didn't realise that. :) --abates 00:34, 1 January 2009 (EST)
