Hmm. There's two images of Scallywag on Robot Wars Wiki, and I'm not sure which should be used. The image on the right has less clutter around it, and higher quality, but the image on the left has more details, implying to me that it is a more finished version. Which should be used? <span style="font-family:AR DARLING; font-size:12pt">[[User:ToastUltimatum|<font color="ff8c00">'''Toast'''</font>]][[User talk:ToastUltimatum|<font color="maroon">'''Ultimatum'''</font>]]</span> 23:46, March 18, 2012 (UTC)

Revision as of 23:46, 18 March 2012

Gallery

Whats with the Gallery? I don't like it, I actually preferred the pictures dotted through the article. Toon Ganondorf (t c) 02:57, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

I basically moved them there because they didn't fit alongside the new results table. If you can fit them all within the robot history section, then you can remove the gallery if you wish. Christophee (talk) 11:35, 6 July 2009 (UTC)
Ah, I see. I'll have a look. Toon Ganondorf (t c) 22:52, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Panic Attack in series 2 had smaller lifting forks and no wedge shape at the front. ManUCrazy 21:53, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

Weapons`

If thats how its going to look, I don't like it, I'm afraid. Toon Ganondorf (t c) 08:10, October 6, 2009 (UTC)

I've changed it into a wikitable so it looks better, but I don't think the name at the top is really necessary. To be honest, I'm not sure any of it is necessary but if other people like it then I'm happy to keep it. Christophee (talk) 14:33, October 6, 2009 (UTC)
I'd be fine with removing the name. If we chose not to use it at all, would we still make pages for weapons? Helloher (talk) 15:27, October 6, 2009 (UTC)
I'd say scrap the table, as it isn't necessary. The only other alternative really would be to put the changes in weapons in the infobox, like the changes in team members. ManUCrazy 16:59, October 6, 2009 (UTC)
You know what? This guy is brilliant. It's an excellent idea. I'm still wondering about wheter we should make the weapons pages at all. Helloher (talk) 17:01, October 6, 2009 (UTC)

Main Image

The main image is considered Official Artwork, and is of higher quality than the Series 7 screen-grab. ManUCrazy (talk) 19:31, December 17, 2010 (UTC)

Section Stub

Any idea on how to put up a section stub marker without causing the pink area to envelop the rest of the page? Until then, I'm just going to put regular stub markers on the new rivalries section. 68.147.45.66 03:42, August 7, 2011 (UTC)

I'll have a bash at making a special template.--83.147.131.249 11:49, August 7, 2011 (UTC)
It would be useful to get the sectional stub template working, but in future please don't create new sections with nothing in them but the template. It looks messy and creates work for other people. Feel free to make a start on a section if you plan to finish it later, but don't make empty sections. Christophee (talk) 13:21, August 7, 2011 (UTC)

Welsh Wizards

I'm not sure if this is right, but on the BattleBots website it says that Kim Davies' team is called the Welsh Wizards. Do people think that we should add this to the page?--Shayfan 17:13, October 19, 2011 (UTC)

I suppose, but it would need a source. Don't add it until more users have had a vote, just in case we're fighting a losing battle.-- STORM II  18:58, October 19, 2011 (UTC)
I have no objection to the idea. Christophee (talk) 20:13, October 19, 2011 (UTC)
Sorry, but I disagree. When competing in America, you had to have a team name, so Welsh Wizards was likely just a spur of the moment invention, or something assigned to them by the BattleBots crew. Either way I don't think it's relevent in the wiki. Matt(Talk) 20:33, October 19, 2011 (UTC)
Maybe it can be mentioned in the Battlebots part of the trivia section, but left out of the infobox. Christophee (talk) 00:29, October 20, 2011 (UTC)
OK, I'll do that--Shayfan 07:25, October 20, 2011 (UTC)

References

There is a bit of the trivia at the bottom that relies on the link to the Panic Attack Website in the References section. However, the link doesn't even work properly. Therefore, is it worth just removing the References section altogether and the bit of the trivia that relies on it. Datovidny (talk) 09:41, February 26, 2012 (UTC)

I don't know what you mean by "doesn't work properly", it works fine here. Maybe that's a browser/computer issue at your end. STORM II  17:05, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
Well, it's the same story with the Hypno-Disc website link too, so I'll just go with that theory. Shame that it's just me. Datovidny (talk) 17:08, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
Oh, it works now, never mind. Datovidny (talk) 17:24, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
Good, glad that you can view it now. STORM II  17:29, March 3, 2012 (UTC)
