Inside the Deepsea Metro Car
Hey, I see on the Calamari Inkanatation page that you've changed the title for one part from Inside the Deepsea Metro Car to Inside the Deepsea metro car. However that's actually the name of the track according to Octotune, not just a conjectural name. KingAwesome467 (talk) 21:40, 2 January 2019 (UTC)
- Ah, I probably should have done a bit more research first! Sorry about the inaccuracy, and thanks for letting me know and changing it back! GloverMist (talk) 21:46, 2 January 2019 (UTC)
- No problem KingAwesome467 (talk) 21:52, 2 January 2019 (UTC)
Splatoon's
What's your reasoning for changing Splatoon's to Splatoon's, which I see on several pages? Doesn't that look alot uglier? KA467 🗩 🖿 16:07, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- The only reason I do that is because the apostrophe-S isn't part of the game name, just a suffix to it, and therefore shouldn't technically be enclosed in the square brackets or be italicised. I guess it's a matter of preference, though, I'm not sure if there's a right or wrong way to do it. I have seen similar done elsewhere, but ironically can't find any examples right away! If you do think this is a problem, though, I can change it. GloverMist (talk) 16:16, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
- Well, it's not like it's my decision to make, I'll ask the Discord for opinions. KA467 🗩 🖿 18:02, 10 April 2019 (UTC)
The use in template Explain
I've seen you used template Explain/tt which is a bit problematic.
That template does not work on mobile devices. For this reason, please avoid using this template. Instead, consider using footnotes. Footnotes can be created using the {{note}} and {{note list}} templates.
So might wanna undo the changes you did to FTWin page so that mobile readers can read those notes too. User:Shachar700/Sig 07:07, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
- Ah, that makes perfect sense! In fact, that's why I mentioned that it may need changing back on the FTWin page, but I wasn't sure then. Thanks for clarifying and I'll undo that change I made! GloverMist (talk) 07:29, 25 May 2019 (UTC)
Quality options for images from Twitter
Hi!
Thanks for uploading the result image for Kid vs. Grown-Up! However, I was batch uploading the results images for all three regions' recent Splatfests; and I uploaded the EU one in a way that should have flagged it as a duplicate to your image. That would have allowed me to rename your file for consistency (...Wins.jpg -> ...win.jpg).
However, the system did not recognize my upload as a duplicate, due to the fact you unknowingly uploaded the lower-quality file.
You see, When a user uploads an image to Twitter, it automatically gets converted to various sizes (and lower quality) for thumbnails, mobile version, etc. However, it is possible to access the original image size (which is still compressed compared to the REAL original image, but it's the best we can access), the following way.
- Let's take the victory Tweet for Kid vs. Grown-Up:
- https://twitter.com/NintendoUKVS/status/1140558680557064192
- If you right-click on the image to get its URL, you will get
- https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D9QUEmsW4AsmEDc.jpg
- (or the same path with some suffix, such as
:large). Note its resolution is 1200x600. - Now add the suffix
:origfor ORIGinal after the.jpg: - https://pbs.twimg.com/media/D9QUEmsW4AsmEDc.jpg:orig
- This will give you access to the highest-resolution version of the file. Note its resolution is 2000x1000.
Thanks again for the help, and hope this helps with future uploads!

- Ah, no problem at all! I understand what you mean, so thank you for explaining it - I'll definitely bear that in mind in the future! GloverMist (talk) 13:19, 17 June 2019 (UTC)
Patroller rights
Hi, your edits are numerous and high quality, so you've been given patroller rights. This means that your edits won't be reviewed ("patrolled") by Inkipedia staff anymore because you are trusted and experienced. You get access to the patrolling tools for reviewing the quality of others' edits, and the rollback tool for reverting vandalism. Use of these tools is optional. It looks like you have already filled in your details at Template:Patrollerlist, which shows up on the staff page and patroller page. By the way, I somehow thought I already did this patrolling ritual 12 months ago but it seems I haven't, so here are the rights. Let me know if you have any questions.
