<center>''To communicate with Erik... is to be alive.''</center>
<center>Okay, so I don't have much of a talk-page policy, just a preference with talking style; If I leave a message on your talk page, you can either reply there or on here. '''When you leave a message on this page, though, I'll respond on this page instead of going to your talk page.''' I '''always''' check both this wiki and Golden Sun Universe everyday, often several times a day, so I'll likely see any messages on my talk page the day they are posted.


Well, okay, that's not exactly subtle. Okay, so I don't have much of a talk-page policy, just a preference with talking style; If I leave a message on your talk page, you can either reply there or on here. '''When you leave a message on this page, though, I'll respond on this page instead of going to your talk page.'''
Alright then, the space below is open up to any and all posts regarding my wiki-style editing. Just keep it relevant! [[User:Erik the Appreciator|Erik the Appreciator]] ([[User talk:Erik the Appreciator#top|talk]])
 
And also, with nomenclature; "Erik the Appreciator" is my user name to keep in character on the site, but you can just call me Erik (Jensen) wherever I show up.
 
Another thing: There may be occasions where I won't edit SmashWiki for a really long period of time. However, unless I say otherwise right here, I '''always''' check SmashWiki everyday, often several times a day. Which means that right now you can safely expect me to respond to talk page posts here quickly. ;)
 
Alrighty then, the space below is open up to any and all posts regarding my Wikipedia edits. Just keep it relevant! [[User:Erik the Appreciator|Erik Jensen]] <b><sup>([[User talk:Erik the Appreciator|Appreciate me here!]])</sup></b>

Hi, You're a sysop(or some other wiki god thing), correct? There is a problem occuring about a fan game that hasn't been released, called Super SMash Bros. Rumble. It has been tagged for deletion and three actual users that have been here for a while voted to deleted, but five accounts that were just created and contributed only to the talk page, voted to keep it. Currently, there are no sysops monitering the vote count. If you could help out, it would be very much appreciated. Thanks![[User:Smorekingxg456|Smorekingxg456]] ([[User talk:Smorekingxg456|talk]]) 20:06, 1 September 2008 (UTC)

If you thought that was bad, just remember that in Golden Sun 3, Isaac and Jenna have sex but for get to use a condom.  Or maybe a cat got a hold of them.  Catch my drift, homie.  Lets not get one-time involved.  [[User:Snakenah|Snakenah]] ([[User talk:Snakenah|talk]]) 00:00, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
== Welcome back again! ==
Great to see you around, Erik.  I had two things I hope you'll check out: first, [[SmashWiki:Requests for adminship/Miles.oppenheimer|my RfA]]. Second, [[User:Miles.oppenheimer/Image Project|my early-design project page]].  Any comments on either would be greatly appreciated.

== Videos ==
Hey Erik. I already contacted Sky2042 about something the Wikia Gaming team is testing (usage of embedded videos). He gave his feedback and suggested that I contact other admins about it, so I am. Please refer to [[User_talk:Sky2042#Videos|Sky's talk page]] to familiarize yourself with the subject. Then continue the discussion on [[User_talk:JoePlay|my talk page]]. I look forward to your input. Thanks. [[User:JoePlay|JoePlay]] ([[User_talk:JoePlay|talk]]) 00:20, 12 November 2008 (UTC)
== The new term pages that are being created ==
We had a page, Smashing Terms, that had all of them, but Miles deleted it, twice. I think it would be good to keep all of them, but they certainly can't have their own pages. I request your permission, as an admin, to recreate the page with all of the terms on it.'''[[User:Smorekingxg456|<span style="color:#5F9EA0">Smoreking</span>]]<small><sup>[[User Talk:Smorekingxg456#Top|<span style="color:#00FF00">(T)</span>]]</sup></small><small><sub> [[Special:Contributions/Smorekingxg456|(c)]]</sub></small>''' 18:16, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
:Mmm, I never saw or read any "Smashing terms" page before, so I don't know what exactly was its content - but the only way I can see that content for myself is to un-delete it, which if it's something that was deleted by another admin multiple times, might technically count as a questionable usage of admin powers "against" another admin. Looking at the deletion log [http://super-smash-bros.wikia.com/index.php?title=Special%3ALog&type=delete&user=&page=Smashing+terms&year=&month=-1 here], he seems to think that each such term should be "incorporated into each page", whatever "each page" is (though it sort of sounds like he's referring to pages about other topic that can allow coverage for individual terms on them as part of their content, but I'm likely wrong). Did you take this up with him on his own talk page yet/already? [[User:Erik the Appreciator|Erik Jensen]] <b><sup>([[User talk:Erik the Appreciator|Appreciate me here!]])</sup></b> 18:33, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

@Erik:  You can view deleted edits without restoring the page. <br />
@SK:  That page should have been deleted and almost all of those terms (exception:  fight club) should not be put anywhere on this wiki.  I've never seen or heard of any of them.  [[User:Clarinet Hawk|Clarinet Hawk]] <small>([[User talk:Clarinet Hawk|talk]] · [[Special:Contributions/Clarinet Hawk|contributions]])</small> 19:04, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

::Charitwo blocked NiteCyper because he was responsible for rather extreme vandalism.

== Smash 4 prediction game ==
Hi, I noticed how you state on your userpage that you didn't want to take the chance at the prize away from anyone else. I figured I would tell you that if you did win, you could choose for the runnerup to receive the prize instead of receiving it yourself. So you could still play, without inadvertently preventing others from getting the prize :p <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png ]] 10:17, 19 June 2013 (EDT)

==A Question==
Do you think you can rewrite [[Pilotwings (universe)|this]], like you did with the other universe articles? [[User:Boo Buddy|<font style="color:black">Boo</font>]] [[User talk:Boo Buddy|<font style="color:black">Buddy</font>]][[File:Haunter MS.png|19px]] 14:11, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
:Mmm, when I wrote all those universe franchise descriptions, I had decided I would only do all the "main" universe pages that the Smash games recognized as "significant enough" to have playable characters, whereas anything that's represented with nothing more than stages/assist trophies would be left alone. I figure that once a universe is confirmed to have a playable character for the first time - regardless of whether the universe gave a stage or assist trophy beforehand - I would immediately write a multi-paragraph description section because that's when the gaming public would suddenly be a lot more interested in reading lots of paragraphs about the newcomer franchise. (I hope I'll eventually be able to do that with Golden Sun and Punch-Out, among others.) But for not-yet-mainly-represented franchises like Pilotwings, it seems more appropriate to leave out an entire franchise description section and simply have the intro paragraph at the top give a very brief, condensed description of what the series is like - how many games it has, the genre of the gameplay, and not much else. So at most, I'd expand the top paragraph a bit. [[User:Erik the Appreciator|Erik the Appreciator]] ([[User talk:Erik the Appreciator#top|talk]]) 17:12, 31 August 2013 (EDT)
== Franchise History for Miis ==
You remarked that you wouldn't be able to do a franchise history for the [[Mii]]s since they don't have their own universe.  Well, you could still give their history on their own page, can't you? - [[User:BrawlMatt202|BrawlMatt202]] ([[User talk:BrawlMatt202|talk]]) 09:55, 16 June 2014 (EDT)
:Technically yes, and on the Mii page itself, it would be titled "Character description" instead to go in line with what character pages have. Even though I don't do character description sections for the wiki nowadays, I could make an exception for that, though after thinking about it, it probably would be a very short description regardless because there probably wouldn't be much more you could say than that "Miis are an avatar system introduced for Nintendo games starting with the Wii in 2006, analogous to avatars on Xbox Live."
