Thanks! I need to resize many of the images to be more web friendly.

Anyone want to volunteer to do a spell check sweep on a few of the wiki pages?

Honestly it would be cool to even test check a lot of the moves and combos that are in the wikis too. I've been getting reports of combos not working and move typos.

Let's split up the teams and we'll scan like three teams each.

I'm up for this, as long as you tell me what pages to check. Also, is there a timeframe goal? I feel like I'll be more dedicated to getting it done if there's a due date. Otherwise I'll probably say something like, "I'll get around to it!" lol

Team Psycho Soldier, Team Yagami, and Team Elizabeth will be checked by Monday.

nilcam

I'll spell check Ash, Team Japan, Fatal Fury and Kim Team by Monday.

FataCon

Women's/AOF/Ikari/K' teams by Tuesday. That should cover it for all the teams. This is just proofreading, correct?

Yessir, if you wish to go deeper (correcting combo errors, fixing images, player notes, adding videos etc) is also welcome. Thanks again gents.

I finished my group! A few things I noticed: combo'd should be comboed, I think. Lots of sentences separated by commas rather than periods. Lots of "you" and "them." Wednesday night, I'll back up the wiki database.

Going through a few pages tonight. Should we remove all the direct references to the reader?

EDIT: and are these saved as standard or minor edits?

nilcam

Yup. I rewrote those to the player or the opponent, so long as it sounded better. I saved as standard edits.

I finished mine finally, a little later than expect but completed nonetheless.

Nilcam, I found the same "author" that you mentioned as I was in run-on-sentence hell for Athena's post.  Took me a while to correct it lol. 

Since we're on that topic, are we keeping "cancelable" as one word and one " L "?  Since it's not a real word in the dictionary I figured it made the most sense.  Same goes with "chainable".

Finally, Athena and Kensou's picture needs resizing so if someone could help with that that'll be cool.

Is there a problem with them? I mean does it mess with the formatting of the pages? I'm using Google Chrome and it looks fine to me, so let me know if it's a browser specific thing. I only resized images last time cause they were oversized and messed with the formatting of the page and the Table of Contents. Looking at the dimensions of the Athena and Kensou Header images, they're are a bit taller but slighty shorter lengthwise than the other character header images. Either way, if you think they need resizing, I'll gladly do it.

Hmm... a question, do you think it should be a bad idea to use the artwork that got rip from the arcade dump and insert it on the wiki?

Don't want to say the same about taking screenshots of the moves atm, but that is something else I though. But just wondering...
