There's policy on these to have image titles in some way relate to what they're actually of ("Movie screenshots should include syntax identifying what movie/TV show/game they came from") rather than using VLC default filenames.

I appreciate all the extra work you've done on ''[[Ultimate Force]]''. I started the page a long time ago when I was new to IMFDB, and in retrospect, there's a lot of stuff I would have done differently (like not grouping all of the AK variants under one entry for "AK-47 variants", for instance). It's good to see someone's revamping it, because I haven't had time myself.

*Please do make sure that you are adding the gun photos, gun page links, and descriptions of the weapons' use (and by which characters). When Excalibur did some additional work on the page a few years back, he was a bit lazy about adding that stuff.

*Since I and Excalibur last worked on the page, IMFDB has a new policy of dividing up TV shows with lots of weapons by season (i.e. ''[[24]]'' and ''[[Stargate: SG-1]]''). The ''[[Ultimate Force]]'' page is getting to be really, really long, so you might want to consider doing the same thing. Since you (wisely) labeled all of your screenshots according to the episode, it should be pretty easy to do this. (I can help you with that, if you want.)

*You might want to group weapons of the same manufacturer near to each other (i.e. SIG P225 and P228 both appear way below SIG P226, which is near the top of the page).

*Your screenshots show that the "Colt CAR-15" with Cobray CM203 that is used by Henno and several other characters in Seasons 3 and 4 has a "Stowaway" pistol grip, which means that it's not a Colt but rather a 10" barrel Olympic Arms K3B carbine fitted with a fake XM177 flash hider. -[[User:MT2008|MT2008]] 18:21, 20 July 2011 (CDT)

Revision as of 23:21, 20 July 2011

The Soldier Soldier page is coming along nicely. --Jcordell 15:39, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Have basically finished the small arms part of it, just need to do heavy and other weapons now.--Commando552 15:43, 29 October 2010 (UTC)

Gary Jones

I don't remember him ever using a Beretta. Could you point out the episode so I can grab a screenshot?--Milkovich 09:53, 15 January 2011 (UTC)

Ah, all right. Thanks. --Milkovich 07:27, 20 January 2011 (UTC)

Ace Combat PAL Titles

Great move making the redirect page with the PAL title of Ace Combat 04: Shattered Skies. I took your lead and did the same for the other AC game articles here (with the exception of AC6, since it has the same title in North America and PAL regions). Way to stay heads-up, wish I had thought of that myself! Orca1 9904 04:25, 10 March 2011 (MSK)

Image titles

There's policy on these to have image titles in some way relate to what they're actually of ("Movie screenshots should include syntax identifying what movie/TV show/game they came from") rather than using VLC default filenames.

Ultimate Force

I appreciate all the extra work you've done on Ultimate Force. I started the page a long time ago when I was new to IMFDB, and in retrospect, there's a lot of stuff I would have done differently (like not grouping all of the AK variants under one entry for "AK-47 variants", for instance). It's good to see someone's revamping it, because I haven't had time myself.

That being said, some suggestions:

  • Please do make sure that you are adding the gun photos, gun page links, and descriptions of the weapons' use (and by which characters). When Excalibur did some additional work on the page a few years back, he was a bit lazy about adding that stuff.
  • Since I and Excalibur last worked on the page, IMFDB has a new policy of dividing up TV shows with lots of weapons by season (i.e. 24 and Stargate: SG-1). The Ultimate Force page is getting to be really, really long, so you might want to consider doing the same thing. Since you (wisely) labeled all of your screenshots according to the episode, it should be pretty easy to do this. (I can help you with that, if you want.)
  • You might want to group weapons of the same manufacturer near to each other (i.e. SIG P225 and P228 both appear way below SIG P226, which is near the top of the page).
  • Your screenshots show that the "Colt CAR-15" with Cobray CM203 that is used by Henno and several other characters in Seasons 3 and 4 has a "Stowaway" pistol grip, which means that it's not a Colt but rather a 10" barrel Olympic Arms K3B carbine fitted with a fake XM177 flash hider. -MT2008 18:21, 20 July 2011 (CDT)
