Is it urgent to do this today?

:: Well, I'm tried to crop the pictures... And failed. First of all this crappy transfer letterbox is hard to exorcise from the picture because the picture itself is just not right placed. That's not to mention the fact that screen-within-the-screen pictures were hard. I still tried and crop the picture despite loosing a little bit of a screenshot itself. Now I've uploaded it...

Sorry for that, I was repeating a mistake because there are a few films which have animation mixed with live action whihc really has actors. So what shell we do in this situation? It's even more sticky, considering that it was not only voice acting but also motion capture performed by the same actors in case of [[Rango]]. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 17:50, 9 December 2013 (EST)

:I'm okay with it but there's also another problem - what to do with episode thing? It's partially because Animation subsection is under-used, but also Anime subsections sometimes fell to this exact problems. I'm writing down the name of the episode in "Notes", dividing it with ";" if there are any other notes, but some people list season-episode thing in the "Title", dividing it with "/". Which is right?

Hello, '''Funkychinaman'''! I'm so sorry for my mistake - adding wrongly category. Also, I have onr question: my new page cantain a few section with tanks, so, I don't understand: what is the tanks a Challenger and what is Chieftain. [[User:Pyramid Silent|Pyramid Silent]] ([[User talk:Pyramid Silent|talk]]) 11:18, 5 February 2016 (EST)
:Eh, 90 subsections is a pretty big page. I think most of the grief was because people claimed the original was next-gen graphics when actually it looks a lot like Black running on PS2. My current device is a Hauppage! (yes, with the exclaimation) HD-PVR, using component leads for input; it's completely useless for composite, mind, so I've still got my Pinnacle Dazzle if I need to record anything PS2 or earlier. It can theoretically record 1080p but it looks like ass in motion to stop you using it to copy blu-ray discs, so it's best to leave it on 720. The Hauppage one also has the advantage that it's actually designed for recording games and so has component video pass-through, so you don't have to build a snake's nest of wires and splitters to play without recording lag.

::Actually I just realised the most ridiculous thing about that game: they forgot to make Dam a flashback and just have the story carry straight on after it.

:::Well, it's not like EA didn't try that too (and unlike ''GoldenEye: Rogue Agent'' Activision's game actually has ''something'' to do with the original movie), it's just they tried to bring it up to date in a way that makes no actual sense. I guess it's because it was written by a Hollywood screenwriter who wasn't used to the games industry's alarming tendency to accept first script drafts (the co-writer of the original movie script, apparently) because it has all the signs of a script which hasn't had enough editorial work done on it; from the aformentioned turbo-terrorism to forgetting to give Alec the scar the entire Janus group is named after to Ourumov stealing an EMP-hardened helicopter when he already has one.

== Re: Screenshots ==
:::Naw, I think it's just the same guy it always was. Liam always made useless pages, that's why he was banned originally. So he loses two accounts he's "contributing" with, digs out an old one he remembered the password for, then has to register a new one. Insulting Zachmann is because he ''totally beat us'' by being mildly inconveniant for a few minutes.

Would like to help re-build the 007 Agent Under Fire page, I have the original Xbox version of the game and can help bring some much higher resolution images and hopefully better descriptions. It may take me some time to build the page back up as I will have to replay the game all the way through in between my full time job.
::::I think the most likely answer is that Gunner95 isn't the same guy, and is just a completely different idiot (it's not like the world is experiencing a shortage) with the similarities being coincidental. Or it's just one of his many personalities. Either way, I wouldn't bother unbanning Gunner95 to find out. In other news, playing GoldenEye I've realised the most ridiculous firearm-related thing is that Bond has to draw his weapon when breaching doors. So, um, he holsters his weapon, kicks open a door to a room full of armed men, and then tries to pull it back out. And with anything but a pistol does it so slowly that the bad guys are already shooting at him by the time he can fire.

Hi! Thanks for responding to me! I have a few followup questions: 1) Do you play games much? If so, do you play scifi shooters as well as shooters with realistic guns? Or are you generally drawn to games with more authentic firearms? 2) How much does the increasingly weird weaponry of Call of Duty games harm your enjoyment? Is it like a minor annoyance, or does it make it much harder to get into the game? THANKS!

Hi, i wanted to create a page about the new movie that came out about heists starring Luis Tosar and i already got the screenshots but i dont know if the title should be in English traducted or original language.. The movie is called "100 Años De Perdón" or 100 Years of Forgiveness.

==You were right to ban that ten year old==
== Commando Black Ops? ==
Brilliant detective work. I think there should be a LOWER age limit. "Violent Shit"? "The House on Creepy Lane?" How on earth did this kid get his short films listed on IMDB?? The mods must have been asleep that day. Wasn't there a link to a film that was basically RUSSIAN elementary school kids acting some sort of story with airsoft guns? I wonder if you remember that. best regards [[User:MoviePropMaster2008|MoviePropMaster2008]] 01:13, 19 August 2012 (CDT)
:Even though Violent Shit and Zombie Panic 90 were purportedly full length features, there is NO WAY a feature length film made by a 10 year old would qualify under our current criteria. It would be near impossible. It would have to be distributed by someone OTHER than the film's maker and there is no way a 10 year old could make something that was deemed professional enough to merit inclusion. My comment about the lower age limit, was just sarcasm. I agree that it would be hard to enforce. We just have to be wary of any new member that seems really young. At least this guy was honest about his age. The fact that he was born AFTER 9/11 means he has never known a world without Usama Bin Laden and his ilk [[User:MoviePropMaster2008|MoviePropMaster2008]]
::BTW, there is a restriction in [[Imfdb :. guns in movies :. movie guns :. the internet movie firearms database:Privacy policy|Privacy policy]]: "Our site is not directed to children under the age of 13". So any membership of 10 years old (regardless of his behavior) is a violation of rules, right? [[User:Greg-Z|Greg-Z]] 12:41, 19 August 2012 (CDT)
:::Hmmmmm. Good catch [[User:Greg-Z|Greg-Z]]. I am certainly intrigued by this idea. Also to Funkychinaman, Thanks for the update. I didn't know what these movies were, and I'm not ashamed to say I've never seen them (which is saying a lot). There are a lot of films distributed by low rent direct to video types (like Sub Rosa) which I'm not thrilled to include. BTW, Funkychinaman do you remember the link to the movie in the snow with the assault rifles made by the Bulgarian kids? I was laughing so hard when I saw that, and then it was gone.... 15:18, 20 August 2012 (CDT)
== Under 13s ==
Most people saying that is an Colt 933, or an Colt 733 (M4 Commando). Also some said that "Firstly, as far as I know there is no such thing as a Model 733 with a flat top, that is just a Model 933. What do you think the difference is? The gun in the game isn't a Model 933 or a 733 though, as regardless of the different design of rail, it also has a slickside upper receiver without a FA or BD. The closest match I can come up with would be a GAU-5A/A with a flash hider rather than the moderator (which was actually done) with a fictional/custom upper with a sight rail. --commando552".

Hi Funkychinaman! I've now uploaded some quite good quality pictures of the gun used by Monica in TDT (DDT). I still honestly can't say if it's a PPK, that I belived before, and do a bit now to, or a SIG-Sauer P230. I've also uploaded two new pictures of a P230 on it's discussion page, it's the two latter ones, they are blued. On those pictures an older SIG is pressented and that might be what Monica's gun is, based on the slide serrations. But please look and think for you're self, as two minds is better than one! ([[User:Thejoker|Thejoker]])
== Re DDT ==
I totally forgot that she had the same pistol in the final scene. And for the record, I only used the stainless pistols because at the time, those were the only pair of PP and P230 images that pointed to the right. --Funkychinaman 18:33, 19 August 2012 (CDT)

== Regarding Subpages and Independent Releases ==
== "[[Go Tell the Spartans]]" Mauser identification. ==
I've discovered recently that my old [[User:Kloga/Photos|Photos]] subpage I thought was deleted years ago is still intact. Though I never really valued it that much it was a nice surprise to see it after all those years and it also got me thinking on subpages - could I do one about firearms in my own short films?.. Also regarding that - as I'm filming an independent feature film for years and don't know yet what kind of release we would have I wanted to ask whether some feature independent films released on the web (YouTube) could have their own pages? There are quite a lot of films distributed through YouTube nowadays, which also had some limited theatrical run or showings. I'm hoping to do a primary example of such - [[Ashens and the Quest for the Gamechild]] in the near future. While I'm sure about the latter one (it has more or less studio-grade production and a lot of famous names attached), I felt the need to ask about those movies which were made independently on little to no budget. Considering that IMFDB covered examples like [[Razor Blade Smile]], I think it will be just to cover some independent films of digital age, as well. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 17:46, 26 June 2016 (EDT)
:Okay, thanks, I'll consult about web releases individually. Also, I remember there was a page for 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series, was it deleted? I'm planning to do pages for 1987 animated series (as Japanese company was heavily involved in the creation of the first season, it had a animesque realistic approach to firearms which was surprisingly more or less carried through the series) and 1988 RoboCop animated series, both being, in my opinion, some of the finest representations of firearms in western animation. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 19:17, 26 June 2016 (EDT)
::A norm for the 1980's which stuck through the 90's and to this day was to draw firearms as some kind of lasers. That doesn't stop creators of RoboCop series to draw his signature Auto-9, as well as some other firearms such as [[Heckler & Koch P9S]] virtually the same as in real life. TMNT series as well smuggled some firearms, especially in the first season, even with fired rounds and good sound effects. I'll provide some detailed examples from both series when I'll get to that. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 20:45, 26 June 2016 (EDT)
In the first pic the Old Man is definitely holding a [[Gewehr 98]]. It sill has the large ''Lange-Visier'' rear sight and the bolt handle is at the rear of the receiver, rather than in the middle as on the M71/84. The second pic could be a M71/84; the front sight looks right and the stock appears to contain a tubular magazine. The third pic looks like a [[Mosin Nagant Rifle|Mosin-Nagant 91/30]], with the long spacing between the two barrel bands and what looks like the "dog collar" sling loops going through the stock. It might also be a Lebel 1886, but the stock bulging downward as it nears the receiver makes me think Mosin. I think these are probably continuity errors. I really wish we could see the receiver better. I hope this helps.

It doesn't have its own page despite appearing in one movie, four videogames (three of which are already covered here and one I plan to cover as well) and re-produced numerous times as a replica.

== Steyr Mannlicher Model SL ==
Regarding [[Steyr Mannlicher Model SL]] - in fact it is more of a full working gun modified beyond belief.

What do you think about [[User:Kloga/Sandbox#List of non-eligible titles|this]]? A little bit clumsy and bulky but otherwise may have a good potential. The website is growing larger and larger (20,000 articles+) and such a simple thing can not only be useful for readers (to consult), newcomers (to check) and distinguished users like me (who just can't put information like that anywhere else), but also, potentially, have much more order on Talk and Disambiguation pages. Putting re-directs for sub-sections for further ease of checking and voilà: a lot of preserved time and, more importantly, nerves. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 20:24, 15 July 2016 (EDT)
:I believe in that idea, so I will still consult further after a few improvements. Eligibility requirements have their issues to be fair. I'm not in position to judge and I'm not doing that, but it took me a while to understand why exactly ''Sherlock Holmes Baffled'' was deleted while ''[[Great Train Robbery, The (1903)|The Great Train Robbery]]'' has a page (and to be fair, the latter is still a short film, though is a notable exception). Another example is [[6th Day, The|The 6th Day]] which only has one firearm and it is a fictional one (it has a direct fire role, though). Keep in mind, I was puzzled by both of these recently and I'm on this website since 2010 and I re-read guidelines and rules occasionally, just in case. Also sometimes I don't remember were there any firearms in the movie or not, so it takes an additional (nearly full!) re-watch like I did for [[The Caller (1987)]] and [[Andrei Rublev]] (which was absentee from [[Andrei Tarkovsky]]'s movies so I've decided to check as he tends to have at least one firearm per film). A page like this, if casually updated by numerous users, can save a lot of time for other users as well - have doubts, check the list (no firearms - problem solved). P.S. [[User:Kloga/Sandbox#Examples of Non-Eligible Titles|A few examples of titles which were considered non-eligible for whatever reasons on my memory.]] I'm sure each IMFDB user has at least a few deleted/moved/aborted articles of that kind and, as I'm still sad about each of the deleted article I've seen through years. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 21:37, 15 July 2016 (EDT)

I did a disambiguation page for [[M*A*S*H]] and I'll probably do one for [[Treasure Island]] as well - we have at least two adaptations. I remember another one being here, with [[Michael Halsey]], but it seems it was deleted for whatever reason (probably for only having flintlocks, which is kind of inevitable considering the setting and was considered eligible in later, better written articles). --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 21:41, 15 July 2016 (EDT)

== A Few Style Guide Questions ==
== Some Updates ==
Thanks for correcting. I'm not insisting on adding brackets to an actor's name on his or her actor page - as you may have noticed, I do that only for image descriptions as it's the quicker way to have name in bold on such a page and I just thought that in bold it looks nicer. As for the redirects - I haven't found anything on doing that for actor pages - do you mean re-directs in general? I've discovered how to do them rather recently and usually go for a slightly idiosyncratic way - I firstly name the page with a re-direct title and then correct it to the normal one. Is it okay?
When you have a minute, check out the new documentation for the {{Cl|Banner}} templates. Also, something you might be able to help me with. We need to move everything from the {{cl|Templates|Template<big>'''s'''</big>}} category to the {{cl|Template}} category. Categories are not supposed to be plural. Thanks man! --[[User:Zackmann08|Zackmann08]] ([[User talk:Zackmann08|talk]]) 13:24, 6 September 2012 (EDT)
Also I've noticed that [[Style Guide]] says "Actors need to be in control of a particular weapon to receive an entry. This would exclude actors grappling for a weapon, or holding up a weapon in a plastic bag." The rule is probably about a common scene seen in procedurals with policemen and/or forensics holding a gun in a plastic bag, so exceptions like actually handling the gun in a bag are allowed ([[Mr. Brooks]] comes to mind) but I still wonder if [[Mikhail Krug]]'s page is okay considering that rule. Despite a plastic bag he is clearly holding a PM himself (as he orders the murder) and, as it's his only screen appearance of that type, I hope it can stay. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 22:54, 20 July 2016 (EDT)

While the film has themes of neo-nazism, and the like (which several other movies on the site have) there is a scene where a school shooting takes place. I was wondering if the page should be held off for a while due to the tragedy in Connecticut since some might say it would be too soon for a page with a similar event. I will still upload photos but if it is decided that it is too soon then I will save the progress I have made into notepad and make the page at a later date.[[User:Mr.Ice|Mr.Ice]] ([[User talk:Mr.Ice|talk]]) 22:27, 16 December 2012 (EST)

: Joke all you wish but there's still a marked difference. Yes they're police in the strictest sense, but the distinction here IS jurisdiction - They're 'police' only for the armed forces; NCIS only investigates crimes pertaining to Navy personnel. That said, the page notes firearms used by CGIS, Army CID, and, indeed, Military Police and Security Police (for the Air Force) as well. I grant it's perhaps rather persnickety I'm spending time trying to make a point of this, especially since as I said before, I question the point of such a page on the whole, but again, the bottom line is NCIS is part of the military and is NOT the same as any other police agency in this particular regard, end of.

I'm working on some shots for ''Binary Domain'' since I decided to have another go at it after remembering I had it on Steam, trying to figure out what the handguns NPCs usually use are.
Hello, '''Funkychinaman'''! I'm sorry, I have some question: I know, that pages, than contain only one firearm don't qualify if this gun is seen only in holster. But, the movie ''The Power of Fear (Vedma)'' contain note one, but two different revolvers (Sheriff's Taurus Model 689 and 2nd deputy sheriff's unknown revolver). Both were never dran from holsters. So, may this page be eligebly, due it's contain not one, but two different guns? The prooved screenshots can be seen on disscussion page: [[Talk:Lembit Ulfsak|disscussion page]].

Hello,
While I am acutely aware of the need for screenshots here, there is a major problem with Syphon Filter Logan's Shadow... it is virtually impossible to screencap images from a PS Vita. Do we have anybody here who can emulate the system on a computer or something? Because I don't see any other alternative but to screenshot pictures from Youtube. -Ft763

I believe the Bolivian boy is using a Colt 1878 Double Action, and the other revolver is a Colt Lightning. And the Bolivian Army's rifle is, I am assuming, the vz. 24 rifle or FN Model 1924 short rifle. But I don't really want to speculate as the article's screencaps are the best ones I got. And I do not want to go and, pardon my French, "half-ass" it by just putting up a firearm that looks like a "close enough match", and wait for a more knowledgable user to go and update the page for me.

Well the thing is, It's name "Vulcan Minigun" must have come from a certain weapon or weapons. So I did some researching and found a weapon that bears similar characteristics. In this case, the drum magazine attached to the bottom of the M61 Vulcan. And it's drum magazine does look a bit similar to the drum used by the in-game minigun. Also, that's how Overkill named this weapon. So that's what got my attention.

== Usage of Upcoming Banner for Squad ==
== Widescreen 600px ==
Hey man, noticed you asked about "hasn't this been out for a while now?" regarding the status of [[Squad]]'s release.
I thought it was accepted that High Quality screencaps for Widescreen films in the "2.35 to 1", "1.85 to 1" or "16x9" aspect ratio get only up to 600px. "Square" 4x3 aspect ratio gets up to 500px depending on the quality of the screencap. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 19:21, 10 February 2013 (EST)
However, I'm still not awfully sure what's IMFDB stand on when a game is released. In the [[Escape from Tarkov]] page, it has the WIP banner, and I assume it's because it's currently in Closed Beta and it cannot be considered as "released" fully yet. However, for Squad, it is on Steam yes, but it is still in Open Alpha and is still far from full release. In this case, may I clarify what "released" means on this site? It is the moment it is available for purchase and play (aka Escape from Tarkov, which arguably is), or is it the moment it leaves beta and becomes a full build?
: I believe it probably should stay at 600px to avoid any confusion and that the fact that the majority of the widescreen films on the site only go up to 600px. Typically, non 2.35 to 1 films were given 500px, but with the advent of more HD and Blu-ray caps, bumping up to 600px was logical. You mentioned in the forum that 700px makes non HD widescreen films appear to be lower in resolution and I agree. There are rare exceptions for films that were shot in an ultra widescreen format like Cinerama (such as [[How the West Was Won]] or [[Battle of the Bulge]]). --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 19:45, 10 February 2013 (EST)\

I would argue the [[Knight's Armament Revolver Rifle]] is a more accurate description and the Ruger Super Redhawk was the basis of the rifle.

Hi Funckychinaman. You linked [[Belgian Bulldog Pocket Revolver]] (a red link for the moment) in the [[Rachel McAdams]] page. This is ok since the gun appears in the 2009 [[Sherlock Holmes]] film. I think the .32 Bulldog was an English gun, not Belgian, but that's not the point. The point is that, I guess, a red link allows the creation of the corresponding article.... and the link [[Colt New Line]] was red before I've created it (and even before I've created my IMFDB account). Indeed, the gun is listed and linked ([[:File:Colt New Line.jpg|with its corresponding photogram]]) in the article refering to the ''[[Deadwood]]'' television series (please, check "Colt New Line" in the [[Deadwood]] article and let me point out that the link [[Colt New Line]] and the mention of the gun were not due to my own action, they already existed before my arrival on this wiki). The caliber configuration in the ''Deadwood'' episode is the .22, so I find it's ok if you delete the article about the .38 caliber configuration ([[Colt New Line 38 Caliber Revolver|that one]], and please, note that it was not created by me), but the article about the gun itself, [[Colt New Line]], should be created since it is linked in the article about the ''[[Deadwood]]'' TV series, where it can be seen on screen.

I want to add an entry for a 1979 cult Swedish movie named "Repmånad", which is roughly translated as "(army) refresher course". In Sweden we used to have a system of yearly conscription which saw thousands of people drafted and trained every year for a 7-15 month military service period. This movie is a sort of parody on the required month of "refresher training" those former conscripts had to do several years after their discharge from the army. The problem is, I dont know if I should create an article with the original Swedish name of the movie: "Repmånad", as it contains a swedish unique (Å) letter. A further problem is I also dont know of an English translation of "Repmånad"...So what do you think? Should I try and find an alternative translation or can I use a Swedish one?

Yes it is a "wiki". But interference in the structure of the site should not be. Change of description. Correction of errors. Of course. But adding screenshots of weapons (premium: only differs in color). It should not be on the page. This is not a Wiki related to the game, but shows the weapon as it is. Also, since I've been working on this game since its release, I added all screenshots. The author of these new changes should at least ask if I am still working on the site.

== Bringing back the Killer7 page. ==
Dude, the [http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/File:Swedishkulsprutam1936.jpg machinegun photo] was taken from a [http://www.digitaltmuseum.se/things/lavett-till-kulspruta-m1936/S-AM/AM.042161?js=1&query=kulspruta+m/1936&rows=72&sort_by=&page=1&js=1&search_context=1&count=694&pos=34 Swedish Museum site] and not an Army Manual!. So why is the photo at the Callup article different from my original upload? Dudester32 17:53, 14 March 2013 (EDT)
Hi, ''Killer7'' has been available on PC since 2018 and I would like to bring back the page with a WIP tag. I am not the original creator, but I do have access to the game's PC version along with the ability to take relevant screenshots from the game, and would like to finally give that classic arthouse game a complete IMFDB page this time around. Can this be done or is there going to be a problem? --[[User:Mazryonh|Mazryonh]] ([[User talk:Mazryonh|talk]]) 20:39, 18 October 2020 (EDT)
:Oh..I got confused since you used the exact same name as the file I uploaded..and as of this moment it hasnt updated to your new version. :) Dudester32 18:00, 14 March 2013 (EDT)
== Pages aren't in their category ==
:Would you prefer that I make a draft on the Killer7 talk page first before transferring the contents over to the actual wiki page? There are a number of hard-to-identify guns in the game that I would like input from the community on. --[[User:Mazryonh|Mazryonh]] ([[User talk:Mazryonh|talk]]) 12:18, 19 October 2020 (EDT)
How come some of the pages I've created aren't in their categories. Like when I'm not logged in I don't see the page that I made in the categories sections.
== Phasing out the "SVD-M" name ==
Examples, would be like the page "[[Zombie-Loan]]" when I go to the anime category. I don't see "[[Zombie-Loan]]" and I even put '''<nowiki>[[Category:Anime]]</nowiki>''', but it only shows up in the anime categories when I'm logged in.
Hello administrator. I am planning to fully phase out the name "SVD-M" from this wiki and replace the name with alternative names and descriptors that are more accurate to reality, and would like to seek your final approval on my plans.
The name "SVD-M" is currently being used on IMFDB to describe a particular setup of the SVD sniper rifle with synthetic furniture, which first appeared in the 1990s/2000s. However, there is no evidence that this name is an official Russian designation, no evidence that it was commonly used in western sources, and this name is also highly similar to the official name of another SVD variant known as the SVDM which was revealed in 2018. The name "SVD-M" is thus unreflective of reality (it is not official, nor is it commonly used), and also too easily confused with another different variant. Since IMFDB ultimately aims to provide accurate and reliable information to its viewers, it is better if the name is fully phased out across the wiki and replaced with more accurate descriptions like "SVD with synthetic furniture" or "post-1990s SVD".
Do I have to wait for a while for my page to be shown up in their category section.
Additional discussions on the "SVD-M" name can be found [[Talk:SVD_Dragunov#SVD-M|here]].--[[User:Wuzh|Wuzh]] ([[User talk:Wuzh|talk]]) 07:30, 8 November 2020 (EST)

Hi, wanted to consult you about something. After looking around for a while I've started to think that Jaws revolver could be an 1970s model (Tapered barrel and no ejector shroud) [[Charter Arms Bulldog]] in caliber .357 with a 6 inch. But I've checked around and I'm a bit confused. Wikipedia says that the Bulldog only had barrel lengths of either 2.5 or 2.2 inches but I've found pictures of Bulldogs with 6 inch barrels. I know Wikipedia isn’t to be trusted but still. Also, do you know the difference between the Bulldog and the Target Bulldog models. If the Target Bulldog was the ones made available with 6 inch barrels it might be that model. What do you think? --[[User:Thejoker|Thejoker]] ([[User talk:Thejoker|talk]]) 08:13, 19 March 2013 (EDT)

:I don't know if their the same I just assumed that. But they appear to be~the same based on their overall shape and appearance. The only other revolver type I've found that has a similar shape in the frame as Jaws revolver, maybe even more so than the Bulldog actually, is some of the make Astra. But they all appear to have shrouded ejector rods and none of the ones I've found have tapered barrels and that style of front sight. --[[User:Thejoker|Thejoker]] ([[User talk:Thejoker|talk]]) 11:23, 19 March 2013 (EDT)

The only thing that's of is the front sight and that the ejector rod on Jaws revolver appears to be only semi-shrouded if you understand what I mean. Maybe (it’s possible, and I don't know the reason for such a modification) they had sawed or filed away the part of the shroud that covered the ejector rod on the sides but kept the front of it. --[[User:Thejoker|Thejoker]] ([[User talk:Thejoker|talk]]) 11:39, 19 March 2013 (EDT)

I think that probably could make such a page eligible in the way that the page about Doom (1993) is... if it's written this way with all the notes about ports, - and the firearms from MS-DOS version are placed in "trivia" category at best, with the words about that these sprites by itself doesn't allow to decide what firearms are these, and what have the developers implied in game hint books about these guns (for example, MS-DOS pistol is supposed to be a Walther P38, not Luger P08).

I can tell you pretty much exactly why it exists, since it's fairly easy to figure it out. They've been kind of struggling to come up with a DLC idea since the plot of FC3 is rather hard to follow up on and doesn't really have any side-stories that don't involve appeasing Vaas' incredibly creepy fanbase. One of the big things that comes up again and again when people discuss it, though, is a DLC where you get to hunt dinosaurs. I guess the game started as an April Fools' joke making fun of how silly the idea was, but then someone pointed out that since people, you know, ''wanted'' the game and they were having a blast making it, they might as well finish it off. Hence you get a Far Cry 3 stand-alone add-on that has absolutely no plot connection to the main game. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 03:27, 2 May 2013 (EDT)

:I have a Toshiba laptop with a Blu-ray disc player and a high resolution screen. I take screen shots from that and then process the images through Photoshop of color and contrast correction. I do not increase the size of the screenshot.
:When I get home this afternoon I will post the original, un-retouched screenshot so you can see for yourself.
:I really don't appreciate the Commando inferring that I am a liar. Surely there are rules regarding decorum on the site.

== Re:Soviet film studios ==
All film studios in USSR were subordinates of USSR State Committee for Cinematography (Goskino), an agency of the Union government of the Soviet Union. So it is incorrect to call them Ukrainian, Moldovian or Estonian. I think that you are right, and pre-1992 movies would be better put in "Soviet Produced" or "USSR Produced" category while "Russian Produced" category is for movies filmed in post-1991 Russia (and for Russian Empire movies if any of them will appear here). I had such idea myself but never introduced it. The same case already exists with Yugoslavian pre-1990s movies. [[User:Greg-Z|Greg-Z]] ([[User talk:Greg-Z|talk]]) 15:47, 25 June 2013 (EDT)

== Vector ==
I was going by original manufacturer name as per GE M134 minigun and a few others. My decision may have been coloured by the fact that TDI sounds less stupid. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 03:32, 19 July 2013 (EDT)
:My main issue is that most cases of the weapon appearing are from back when "TDI Vector" was the correct name, and I'm not that happy with "updating" links in a way that isn't strictly technically accurate. Any K10 SMG would be a KRISS USA produced one because they're all after the change, but prototype-based Vectors would always be TDI (since the KRISS USA brand didn't exist at that time) and I imagine most real Vectors in the movie industry have TDI trades.
:Just as an example; if Colt suddenly changed its name to Bob, it would be rather weird changing every gun page to reflect that when every weapon ID would be of a Colt-produced weapon. Not that it's going to happen, I just think 'original name' is the best precedent for page names which include manufacturer names, saves shifting them around whenever someone tries to think of a sillier name for themselves. It should be at KRISS USA Vector if we're using the ALLCAPS ARMS title anyway, though. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 09:34, 19 July 2013 (EDT)

MPM's image that we use as an ersatz SVD-M is already a Tigr / Tiger carbine, what's the new one for?
I noticed some photos have quotes from movies in them. i.e the Spider-Man 3 photo of a Beretta 92fs had the quote "Fire!", the Terminator 2 Colt/Detonics M1911A1 Series 70 Hybrid was "Hasta la vista, baby." and the photo of The Other Guys glocks was "Drop it or be dropped, homeboy! Hope you like the taste of prison food...and penis." So it came to my mind saying I should put the quote "Ok, DROP HIM!" in a Terminator 2 photo of a CAR 15. I did so, but Ben41 removed it and just said "Undo revision by Gunnerboy." nothing more. Now I'm scared cause of an event that happened to me 1 and a half month ago. Ok, I'm already in a pickle, but here is my full story: My whole life on Wiki type websites have been a mess since the beginning (or at least my beginning at Super Mario Wiki which was the 1st ever wiki I joined). Super mario wiki blocked me for "sockpuppetting" (I don't even know what that is) and I couldnt edit there for 2 weeks. So, after that, I decided its time for me to officially quit that wiki - PERMANENTLY and to do something else on the web. I 1st created the user "Toadettefan1000" between 2011-2012 before Mario Party 9 was released. I was a Newbie, Probie or anything you want to call me thats similar to that, everything except a learner, because I was overexcited, couldnt control my mind/think properly and got right to work spreading my edits to pages the moment my account got created (unaware that there were other users at the time). I put "Toadette is considered an F- character due to the # of game appearances" in the Toadette trivia and l logged off (because I wanted to show my opinion of Toadette's appearances in games since she dosent appear much in the whole mario series). But minutes later, when I came back on, I discovered my edit is gone. I figured "Aw well, better put it back on." and so I did. But minutes later after that 2nd edit, the edit is gone! So, I was thinking "What?! I could've swore I done an edit here! Maybe theres a bug in the system." So I put my edit back on again. This gig kept up all the way til nightfall and thats when I was like "Thats it, I quit!" So, I left. A day after quitting, I decided to join Transformers wiki and do an edit on 1 of my fave pages titled "Unknown Constructicon Shovel" by adding multiple screenshots of the shovel transforming, but they got rejected claiming they "dont need multiple screenshots of the same character in 1 scene". So, I quit that wiki as well. An hour later, I decided to join Disney wiki, and since I've been to Hong Kong Disneyland, I decided to put Mickey and Minnie's Chinese names in their trivia pages (I thought it would be nice to know their Chinese names and learn some Chinese in the process). But you can probably guess what happened there. Anyways, I JUST DON'T UNDERSTAND THE WORLD ANYMORE! I even came back onto Super mario wiki 36 days ago to put a comment on the Rosalina talk page now as "RosalinaLover" (At 1st, I thought creating a new account would help me to start a new and better life here, put the miserable past behind me and solve my problems, but no, it seem to make things worse) saying that I stumbled upon some modified images of Rosalina in different alternate outfits on Google/Yahoo (besides her dress and bike suit), how its not natural for someone to put a character in an unofficial outfit and how they are able to make fan (yet official looking) art (because you know how people can get when it comes to future games, so they draw/make possibility pictures), but it got pulled down. And it just gets worse and thats where I hit a snag: within 2 hours after that edit, 1 of my accounts on Super mario wiki got blocked for "Sockpuppetting" for 2 weeks and the other indefinitely. I couldnt even log on or edit here for the time and thats when I decided to officially quit Super mario wiki and take my business elsewhere. I was thinking "either the previous wiki type websites I worked on hate me or I suck at editing". Every edit I did got taken down/rejected/trashed (looks like its back to the old drawing board). I'm in a real tizzy right now. No matter what I did, things seem to just get worse and worse as if no 1 wants me around. I COULDNT STAND THIS ANYMORE! :( I couldnt tolerate this kind of treatment any longer. So, I bid them all farewell and good riddance! :( Now recalling this event on IMFDB, I got even more scared, cause the same thing might happen here like on Super Mario Wiki.--[[User:Gunnerboy|Gunnerboy]] ([[User talk:Gunnerboy|talk]]) 23:47, 20 August 2013 (EDT)

I say the Magnum Carry should have it's own page. Though the model is the same frame size as the Colt Detective Special/SF-V1 it's also a different model. Different steel, longer cylinder beefed up internals etc. After all it's a .357 magnum small frame snubbie. The S&W Model 19 is a K frame like the S&W Model 10 or the S&W Model 15, but they are very distinct models.

== Re: Straight bolt handles in Kar98k rifles ==
This rifle here appears to be a [[Mauser Rifle Series#VZ-24 Czech Mauser|Vz.24]] in a Kar98k stock. It has the front sight band/mount of the Vz.24 (inherited from the [[Mauser Gewehr 1898|Gew.98]]); the band is fitted to a barrel step and blends in with the outer profile of the barrel. The handguard on a [[Karabiner 98k|Kar98k]] fits into a semi-circular recess on the front or the rear sight base, and you can see the lip on the handguard exposed, rather than covered with a steel band. Finally, the rear sight leaf, slider and base don't match those of a Kar98k, but fit perfectly with a Vz.24. I suspect the other rifles with straight bolts are also Vz.24 cosmetically altered to resemble Kar98k rifles.
[[Image: MI66_0119_Mauser_01.jpg|thumb|none|500px|Guard with a K98 with a straight bolt handle in "The Diamond" (S01E19). Note the straight bolt handle.]]
In this pic the two rifles nearest the camera definitely have Vz.24 front & rear sights. The third rifle has a Kar98k-type front sight band.

== Philippine/filipino ==
I'm not sure, but I think Philippine refers to the location whereas Filipino refers to people from the Philippines. Therefore I think "Philippine Produced" would be the more correect category, as we are talking about films produced in the geographic location of the Phillipines, rather than those produced by people from the Philippines. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 08:46, 2 October 2013 (EDT)
:The Belgium thing is different though, as the original category name for this was not the name of the country but already the adjective. It is true that the demonym of people from the Philippines in Filipino, but we shouldn't be using the demonym for these categories as that refers to the people and is not necessarily the correct adjective for something originating from that country but which is not a product of the people and culture there (for example you would say Filipino food or Filipino language). I wasn't 100% when I made the original Philippine category, but the thing that tipped it for me is that the term Philippine is used to refer to stuff like the Philippine Army, Philippine islands, Philippine Revolution etc.. I think people tend to also use the term Filipino colloquially to things that would correctly be termed Philippine which doesn't help in trying to work out the correct term. --[[User:Commando552|commando552]] ([[User talk:Commando552|talk]]) 09:11, 2 October 2013 (EDT)

Hi, you informed me that I recently created a page that was apparently locked (guess you know which one...). Just to avoid me stepping into another 'bee's nest' again, can you please let me know how I can see a page is locked and thus should not be created? I searched for clues, e.g. there was nothing on the 'Special Pages' page. IMFDB is too dear to me to have further 'situations' so I would really appreciate if you could let me know.

:Thanks for letting me know about the locked page for "Team America: World Police". Had I seen such a notice, I would not have spend any more time and effort. However, (and believe this or not...) I honestly did not see this when I typed the movie name in the search bar last week. I just saw the usual (reciting from memory here...) 'there is no such page, create page Team America: World Police' which I happily did.
:Guess this site does have its little peculiarities, just like when this morning I created a new talk topic on your Talk page by pressing the 'add topic' button and my new topic was not numbered 152 (because the previous one is 151) but mysteriously 151.1.

== Post Apocalyptic and other genres ==
It is a genre, in fact. A sub-genre of Sci-Fi which has too many significant issues to be qualified as just a sci-fi. Traditional genre system was developed back in ancient times while newer additions were mostly made because of re-inventing nearly all the culture in 20th century. In fact we doesn't even able to find clear genre-established films today - most of them mixes up to five genres/sub-genres so it's perfectly normal. Also, many of the traditional genres definitions changed enough since ancient time and subsequently. Culturally it's just will be unfair to say that a post-apocalyptic fiction is not developed enough to doesn't have it's own laws, themes and establishing elements to be called such. So does blaxploitation, slasher, zombie film and a few others. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 21:55, 29 December 2013 (EST)
: I hope you don't mind me piping in a bit. I actually am with you FCM in that they may be a couple/few too many categories on the site already. That said, while I don't support the idea of Kloga's 'slasher' category, I actually do think Post-Apocalyptic is a proper category, moreso than 'slasher' in that Post-Apocalyptic can be more specifically qualified - it's generally pretty clear what 'Post-Apocalyptic' is. Now I wouldn't mind it it was done away with though, but I just wanted to speak up with that. That said, having it and 'zombie' categories are most likely redundant, and that, to me, is a concern in terms of denying/eliminating categories. But just an opinion, final say's up to you guys.

== Strayed: "And what's a shef?" ==
"Shef" is a Russian pronunciation for "chief". We use this word to describe any superior, boss or anything like this, including the chieftain of a gang.

It seems to me that two last pages, created by Kloga, are very questionable: [[Nartov Mortar System]] is a smoothbore pre-Napoleonic artillery piece, and we don't keep pages about such weapons. And [[Cossacks: European Wars]] is an RTS that [http://replicore.ru/uploads/posts/2012-06/1339240282_1257684817_0511fb1ce02r.jpg doesn't show individual soldiers close enough so their weapons can be seen].

I'm not sure which model/brand the blank firing Beretta is but I will try to find out. It was not mine. I will also check on the Taurus PT 92. I cannot confirm that Alien switches to a real Beretta 92 FS Inox. The only ones that I personally saw were the blank firing. I'm working on getting an accurate list. The close-up of Big Arch's henchmen chambering a round was a blank firing Glock-type but I will find out the specifics on that also. In the table shot, #1) Is a Spike's Concussion AR pistol. There are a total of 4 Spikes Concussion ARs in the movie. There is a second one on the table behind it but you really can't see it in the screen shot. #2) Is a Glock 20 SF with Lone Wolf barrel. #5) Is 2 Springfield V-16 long slides in .45 Super with Wilson Combat 10 round mags #6) Is a Glock 35. Also, Big Arch's henchmen with the M11/9 is a female.

Followup questions for you
Hi! Thanks for responding to me! I have a few followup questions: 1) Do you play games much? If so, do you play scifi shooters as well as shooters with realistic guns? Or are you generally drawn to games with more authentic firearms? 2) How much does the increasingly weird weaponry of Call of Duty games harm your enjoyment? Is it like a minor annoyance, or does it make it much harder to get into the game? THANKS!

Commando Black Ops?
Most people saying that is an Colt 933, or an Colt 733 (M4 Commando). Also some said that "Firstly, as far as I know there is no such thing as a Model 733 with a flat top, that is just a Model 933. What do you think the difference is? The gun in the game isn't a Model 933 or a 733 though, as regardless of the different design of rail, it also has a slickside upper receiver without a FA or BD. The closest match I can come up with would be a GAU-5A/A with a flash hider rather than the moderator (which was actually done) with a fictional/custom upper with a sight rail. --commando552".

Regarding Subpages and Independent Releases
I've discovered recently that my old Photos subpage I thought was deleted years ago is still intact. Though I never really valued it that much it was a nice surprise to see it after all those years and it also got me thinking on subpages - could I do one about firearms in my own short films?.. Also regarding that - as I'm filming an independent feature film for years and don't know yet what kind of release we would have I wanted to ask whether some feature independent films released on the web (YouTube) could have their own pages? There are quite a lot of films distributed through YouTube nowadays, which also had some limited theatrical run or showings. I'm hoping to do a primary example of such - Ashens and the Quest for the Gamechild in the near future. While I'm sure about the latter one (it has more or less studio-grade production and a lot of famous names attached), I felt the need to ask about those movies which were made independently on little to no budget. Considering that IMFDB covered examples like Razor Blade Smile, I think it will be just to cover some independent films of digital age, as well. --Kloga (talk) 17:46, 26 June 2016 (EDT)
Okay, thanks, I'll consult about web releases individually. Also, I remember there was a page for 2012 Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series, was it deleted? I'm planning to do pages for 1987 animated series (as Japanese company was heavily involved in the creation of the first season, it had a animesque realistic approach to firearms which was surprisingly more or less carried through the series) and 1988 RoboCop animated series, both being, in my opinion, some of the finest representations of firearms in western animation. --Kloga (talk) 19:17, 26 June 2016 (EDT)
A norm for the 1980's which stuck through the 90's and to this day was to draw firearms as some kind of lasers. That doesn't stop creators of RoboCop series to draw his signature Auto-9, as well as some other firearms such as Heckler & Koch P9S virtually the same as in real life. TMNT series as well smuggled some firearms, especially in the first season, even with fired rounds and good sound effects. I'll provide some detailed examples from both series when I'll get to that. --Kloga (talk) 20:45, 26 June 2016 (EDT)
TOZ-8
Just wanted to ask to wait at least a few minutes before editing article I created if work is obviously in progress - I'm a bit slow, yes, but you've changed one word in the article three minutes later and I've lost a fully stable variant of the article with four photographs and fixed stats as a result. It will take additional 8-10 minutes to finish the article and re-do it. :( --Kloga (talk) 21:38, 13 July 2016 (EDT)
Also, there is a standalone variant named TOZ-8M, currently not seen anywhere. Should I place the photograph of it in the main article, or I can make a section for it, in case it turns up somewhere? --Kloga (talk) 21:42, 13 July 2016 (EDT)
Thanks for answering. I have another question, it's off-topic, but since I've started the discussion, I'll probably ask here - as LAPD 2019 Blaster from Blade Runner doesn't have it's own page as a fictional firearm can I do one? It doesn't have its own page despite appearing in one movie, four videogames (three of which are already covered here and one I plan to cover as well) and re-produced numerous times as a replica. Also there are tons of unused information about it on discussion page that will look just fine, if separate page on the gun will be created. --Kloga (talk) 22:50, 13 July 2016 (EDT)
Regarding Steyr Mannlicher Model SL - in fact it is more of a full working gun modified beyond belief. Blaster is basically a sawn-off rifle fitted with lots of additional details and, more importantly, instantly recognizable shape and fully intact Steyr markings. I haven't added Blaster as an appearance of Charter Arms Bulldog, though, because this indeed, was only a part. --Kloga (talk) 10:05, 14 July 2016 (EDT)
The fact that a few non-substantial details were taken from Charter Arms Bulldog is a recent discovery and they are barely seen in the construction. I will not argue further but at least don't delete Model SL from Steyr Mannlicher page - if someone will stumble upon this in the movie, it will be useful for identification. --Kloga (talk) 10:49, 14 July 2016 (EDT)
Good idea! Should Blade Runner still be listed in the sub-section? --Kloga (talk) 12:37, 14 July 2016 (EDT)
Just had an idea, I think, we can put to a great use.
What do you think about this? A little bit clumsy and bulky but otherwise may have a good potential. The website is growing larger and larger (20,000 articles+) and such a simple thing can not only be useful for readers (to consult), newcomers (to check) and distinguished users like me (who just can't put information like that anywhere else), but also, potentially, have much more order on Talk and Disambiguation pages. Putting re-directs for sub-sections for further ease of checking and voilà: a lot of preserved time and, more importantly, nerves. --Kloga (talk) 20:24, 15 July 2016 (EDT)
I believe in that idea, so I will still consult further after a few improvements. Eligibility requirements have their issues to be fair. I'm not in position to judge and I'm not doing that, but it took me a while to understand why exactly Sherlock Holmes Baffled was deleted while The Great Train Robbery has a page (and to be fair, the latter is still a short film, though is a notable exception). Another example is The 6th Day which only has one firearm and it is a fictional one (it has a direct fire role, though). Keep in mind, I was puzzled by both of these recently and I'm on this website since 2010 and I re-read guidelines and rules occasionally, just in case. Also sometimes I don't remember were there any firearms in the movie or not, so it takes an additional (nearly full!) re-watch like I did for The Caller (1987) and Andrei Rublev (which was absentee from Andrei Tarkovsky's movies so I've decided to check as he tends to have at least one firearm per film). A page like this, if casually updated by numerous users, can save a lot of time for other users as well - have doubts, check the list (no firearms - problem solved). P.S. A few examples of titles which were considered non-eligible for whatever reasons on my memory. I'm sure each IMFDB user has at least a few deleted/moved/aborted articles of that kind and, as I'm still sad about each of the deleted article I've seen through years. --Kloga (talk) 21:37, 15 July 2016 (EDT)
And now I'm trying to solve the problem and also to prevent it from happening with other users. It's logical, considering I had the most experience having it. ;) --Kloga (talk) 01:29, 16 July 2016 (EDT)
Disambiguation Pages
I did a disambiguation page for M*A*S*H and I'll probably do one for Treasure Island as well - we have at least two adaptations. I remember another one being here, with Michael Halsey, but it seems it was deleted for whatever reason (probably for only having flintlocks, which is kind of inevitable considering the setting and was considered eligible in later, better written articles). --Kloga (talk) 21:41, 15 July 2016 (EDT)

A Few Style Guide Questions
Thanks for correcting. I'm not insisting on adding brackets to an actor's name on his or her actor page - as you may have noticed, I do that only for image descriptions as it's the quicker way to have name in bold on such a page and I just thought that in bold it looks nicer. As for the redirects - I haven't found anything on doing that for actor pages - do you mean re-directs in general? I've discovered how to do them rather recently and usually go for a slightly idiosyncratic way - I firstly name the page with a re-direct title and then correct it to the normal one. Is it okay?
Also I've noticed that Style Guide says "Actors need to be in control of a particular weapon to receive an entry. This would exclude actors grappling for a weapon, or holding up a weapon in a plastic bag." The rule is probably about a common scene seen in procedurals with policemen and/or forensics holding a gun in a plastic bag, so exceptions like actually handling the gun in a bag are allowed (Mr. Brooks comes to mind) but I still wonder if Mikhail Krug's page is okay considering that rule. Despite a plastic bag he is clearly holding a PM himself (as he orders the murder) and, as it's his only screen appearance of that type, I hope it can stay. --Kloga (talk) 22:54, 20 July 2016 (EDT)
That's exactly the type of a scene I was talking about as seen in nearly every episode of nearly every police procedural ever. I have another question, which is slightly off-topic: are you using this nickname elsewhere? There are a DeviantArt, a Tumblr, Twitter and YouTube accounts which use "Funkchinaman" for a name and I just wonder are any of these people you. --Kloga (talk) 23:13, 20 July 2016 (EDT)

This way much more people will join in to identify the firearms, I hope. Therefore, at the time of actual release in September we will already have one large scene with some of firearms covered. Moreover, I doubt we will get cleaner shots on those in the series, as well. --Kloga (talk) 19:29, 26 July 2016 (EDT)
Worms 3D
So here it is. Is it eligible? Considering Team Fortress 2 is, that is probably on the same level.

That's probably the reason why it have slightly more images then needed for it. --Kloga (talk) 20:42, 26 July 2016 (EDT)

Sorry for annoying but...
I buyed Far Cry 4 yesterday and I seen Chinese writings on the Skorpion. Since I dont known chinese can I ask you help for translation? (hoping doesnt offend you) I m trying to do a good job here... so can ask you when I see Chinese writings (regarding this site, of course). Sorry for annoying... --Dannyguns (talk) 05:30, 4 December 2016 (EST)
Ok, well I think the image is already on site, just nobody noted chinese writings, sorry but I wrongly assumed you can speak Chinese since your profile state that you were born in Taiwan. Maybe somebody else can help me ( and maybe taught me ). So again sorry for annoying,--Dannyguns (talk) 11:28, 4 December 2016 (EST)
Hello Funkychinaman! I'm sorry, I have some question: I know, that pages about media, that contain only tanegashima matchlock are ineligible. But, the movie Azumi also contain very rare, but realy historical exist Japanese matchlock revolver 1, 2, 3, like this. So, may I upload screenshots on discussion page to view it for Administrators.
I created the stub on discussion page: Talk:Azumi. May you visit it for it discussion about it's eligibility, please. Pyramid Silent (talk) 03:17, 17 January 2017 (EST)
RE: Firearms used by Chinese Armed Forces
Well 1) PLA is in a lot of media recently (BF series, Passion leads Army,Project Reality, and a lot of movies) 2)Historical pourpose (and in case of a reunification) 3)I promise that I will end in less than a month. (If I got blank check of course) --Dannyguns (talk) 09:54, 21 January 2017 (EST)
So can I make it?
How many movies with PLA-used weapons have entries on this wiki anyway? I feel that "List of firearms used by" pages are useful trivia at least and a handy way to tell if a firearm in a piece of media is anachronistic or doesn't belong in the hands of a fictional depiction of a country's armed forces. --Mazryonh (talk) 17:59, 21 January 2017 (EST)
Um I seen few but I m more expert on videogames,but isnt my fault is these page are messed up (French and German),or overcomplete (US,Russia and UK). But would be my fault if I would create it and dont finish.--Dannyguns (talk) 07:40, 22 January 2017 (EST)
Not to butt in but I'd like to lend my piece here - I don't agree with having such pages, in fact I daresay the existing ones we have are a bit much already. I don't really recall how they came about but the point is, while they could be useful trivia I feel they lean too much towards being a gun encyclopedia, which is, as expressly stated, not the point of the site. StanTheMan (talk) 20:15, 22 January 2017 (EST)
Yeah they include even ORGANIZATIONS like FSB or NCIS,SS, which are not part of official armed forces.--Dannyguns (talk) 09:20, 23 January 2017 (EST)
I noted this on the talk page but to reiterate - NCIS is under the Department of the Navy, it's not a civilian agency. Thus I'd say it does qualify, insofar as the page itself is allowable anyway. StanTheMan (talk) 14:27, 23 January 2017 (EST)
So, can I have the HONOR of delete them? :)--Dannyguns (talk) 12:29, 23 January 2017 (EST)
StanTheMan still be a police force regardeless of giurisdiction. And was a joke, owner of this page.--Dannyguns (talk) 08:34, 24 January 2017 (EST)
Joke all you wish but there's still a marked difference. Yes they're police in the strictest sense, but the distinction here IS jurisdiction - They're 'police' only for the armed forces; NCIS only investigates crimes pertaining to Navy personnel. That said, the page notes firearms used by CGIS, Army CID, and, indeed, Military Police and Security Police (for the Air Force) as well. I grant it's perhaps rather persnickety I'm spending time trying to make a point of this, especially since as I said before, I question the point of such a page on the whole, but again, the bottom line is NCIS is part of the military and is NOT the same as any other police agency in this particular regard, end of. StanTheMan (talk) 16:55, 24 January 2017 (EST)
The joke was because I ask at Funkychinaman the honor of delete them, but if I need to line..
Yeah I got that, it's cool man. I definitely get too serious when I perhaps don't need to be. Bah. And to you FCM, sorry for semi-hijacking your shit here. StanTheMan (talk) 15:07, 25 January 2017 (EST)

Some question about holstered revolvers in movie
Hello, Funkychinaman! I'm sorry, I have some question: I know, that pages, than contain only one firearm don't qualify if this gun is seen only in holster. But, the movie The Power of Fear (Vedma) contain note one, but two different revolvers (Sheriff's Taurus Model 689 and 2nd deputy sheriff's unknown revolver). Both were never dran from holsters. So, may this page be eligebly, due it's contain not one, but two different guns? The prooved screenshots can be seen on disscussion page: disscussion page. Movie page on imdb.
Ok. I am removing the question. Pyramid Silent (talk) 08:33, 18 March 2017 (EDT)
Movie genre
Hi,Funkychinaman!Look,I'd like to create a page for the romanian film Reconstitution(1960) by Virgil Calotescu.The problem is,I can't find the right genre for it.I mean,the film is about the famous 1959 National Bank robbery(in Bucharest), and it's like a documentary(it features the actual robbers in the main roles)....but it isn't really a documentary,it's more like a propaganda film.So,I don't know what to do.Please give me some advice.

Syphon Filter
Hello there, as you can see from my user page I am an avid Syphon Filter fanatic and am attempting to collect the list of weapons used in each game to make pages.

Could you please assist me with this? Thank you and much appreciated. -Ft763
Hello,
While I am acutely aware of the need for screenshots here, there is a major problem with Syphon Filter Logan's Shadow... it is virtually impossible to screencap images from a PS Vita. Do we have anybody here who can emulate the system on a computer or something? Because I don't see any other alternative but to screenshot pictures from Youtube. -Ft763

Short on DVD
It's true that it probably not worth it on DVD, only 22 minutes is. I am rather surprised by what is written in rules about the causes of why not short films.

RE: Aspect ratio
Yeah I know, although I was trying to make a compromise since there are some 16:9 screencaps as well, and I was thinking to have all of them in 550px so that there aren't many differences in terms of screencap widths on the same page. Otherwise, we'll have some in 500px and others in 600px, do you prefer it that way? --Ultimate94ninja (talk) 06:25, 8 December 2017 (EST)

A problem with image abuse
I got the following abuse from Carbinesfrcollector.com on my email:

You need to remove the picture of the Llama as it is a copyrighted image from carbinesforcollectors.com I will file suit if you do not.and have your site removed.
RK Smith

I guess that the source of the problem image is this page: Llamapage. Llama XVIII image looks the same as on their site but maybe some other images are also taken from Carbinesfrcollector. My English isn't good enough to discuss the problem. What should we do?

Vulcan Minigun
Well the thing is, It's name "Vulcan Minigun" must have come from a certain weapon or weapons. So I did some researching and found a weapon that bears similar characteristics. In this case, the drum magazine attached to the bottom of the M61 Vulcan. And it's drum magazine does look a bit similar to the drum used by the in-game minigun. Also, that's how Overkill named this weapon. So that's what got my attention. The fact that this weapon is based off of the GEM134 and has a fictional device that looks similar to a non-fictional device used by another armament.--Gunnerboy (talk) 19:25, 2 February 2018 (EST)
Modern Warfare 2 had a habit of referring to M134s as "Vulcan" mini guns as well, you can't really just go off of that name. You could mention that the drum magazine is similar to that used on some of the M61 variants, but the weapon in game is quite clearly supposed to be a hand-held M134. Also, according to the Payday wiki, it's name in the files is "m134".--AgentGumby (talk) 20:01, 2 February 2018 (EST)
Re:Dirty Bomb

Fortnite
Thank you for the opportunity! If it is any problem, should the page for Save the World and Battle Royale be different, or should I make categories for both modes? At least on Wikipedia it is shown as a standalone spin-off, but I think separating the two could be somewhat confusing. --DraconicSalad (talk) 18:00, 30 March 2018 (EDT)
Sup. Pistol
Ya, most of them are easily indentifiable aside from looking cartoonish. The Supressed Pistol seems to be based on a FN FNP/FNX-45 with a supressor and a Tirijicon RMR. The only weapon I seem to be struggling with seems to be the Revolver, since it looks old, but features multiple things from different old era revolvers and is double-action.
The game has both modes present when you open it (althrough unless you pay only one of them is, so I'll probably treat it similar to Call of Duty and it's Zombies mode). I'll be uploading and writing most of the things through this weekend and post it all at once when it's done.

Usage of Upcoming Banner for Squad
Hey man, noticed you asked about "hasn't this been out for a while now?" regarding the status of Squad's release.
However, I'm still not awfully sure what's IMFDB stand on when a game is released. In the Escape from Tarkov page, it has the WIP banner, and I assume it's because it's currently in Closed Beta and it cannot be considered as "released" fully yet. However, for Squad, it is on Steam yes, but it is still in Open Alpha and is still far from full release. In this case, may I clarify what "released" means on this site? It is the moment it is available for purchase and play (aka Escape from Tarkov, which arguably is), or is it the moment it leaves beta and becomes a full build?
Cheers man, yea I was actually referring to the Upcoming banner but I mixed it up with the WIP one. I don't think I'll be adding anything more though, the description says it's in development and the info box says it was only released in Early Access in Dec 2015. --OngYingGao (talk) 07:46, 19 July 2018 (EDT)

Hi, Funkychinaman, I hope you're doing well. I wanted to reach out and ask you a quick question. I know you recently unlocked the Battlefield 1918 page and I was wondering if you can block it again, delete the page, or delete my account. What started off to fix a simple typo turned into an obsession and I have the spent the last few days editing it and I'm unable to feel a sense of completion no matter how many times I improve it. If you can do something that will prevent me from having access to it that'll be great and give me a peace of mind. Thanks and I'm sorry for any inconvenience. Vintage Guns (talk)
Hi and thanks for the block. I know it may seem strange but I really appreciate it and it's very helpful. I think it's time I take a long break from IMFDB and best of luck with everything. Vintage Guns (talk)
Miguel Ferrer
I would argue the Knight's Armament Revolver Rifle is a more accurate description and the Ruger Super Redhawk was the basis of the rifle. According to the discussion page the director John Badham had read about the rifle in Soldier of Fortune magazine and requested that the armorer make a mock-up of the rifle. The page for the rifle has Miguel Ferrer using it in Another Stakeout. Any ideas? Tell you what look at what I added to Miguel's page. How's that for a compromise? --Jcordell (talk) 15:12, 25 November 2018 (EST)--Jcordell (talk) 15:12, 25 November 2018 (EST)

Frankly this is rubbing me the wrong way - not so much doing it but that he's doing these big edits without giving any leave for those of you who run things to even address any of this.

Hello, Funkychinaman! Excuse me, I have some question: as far, as I know, the movies, that still note release on DVD in the USA should be templated as "NowShowing". But, I couldn't found any information obout USA realease of the movie Witches in the Woods. It's not USA, but a Canadian movie, and the "www.dvdsreleasedates.com" hadn't any information about this movie.

Breakpoint
Yes it is a "wiki". But interference in the structure of the site should not be. Change of description. Correction of errors. Of course. But adding screenshots of weapons (premium: only differs in color). It should not be on the page. This is not a Wiki related to the game, but shows the weapon as it is. Also, since I've been working on this game since its release, I added all screenshots. The author of these new changes should at least ask if I am still working on the site. A different situation like I would say a few months did nothing to her. It has such a right. But not in this situation. Put yourself in my position.

The name "SVD-M" is currently being used on IMFDB to describe a particular setup of the SVD sniper rifle with synthetic furniture, which first appeared in the 1990s/2000s. However, there is no evidence that this name is an official Russian designation, no evidence that it was commonly used in western sources, and this name is also highly similar to the official name of another SVD variant known as the SVDM which was revealed in 2018. The name "SVD-M" is thus unreflective of reality (it is not official, nor is it commonly used), and also too easily confused with another different variant. Since IMFDB ultimately aims to provide accurate and reliable information to its viewers, it is better if the name is fully phased out across the wiki and replaced with more accurate descriptions like "SVD with synthetic furniture" or "post-1990s SVD".
Additional discussions on the "SVD-M" name can be found here.--Wuzh (talk) 07:30, 8 November 2020 (EST)
Dear administrator, would you please review my proposal? It has been a week since I first proposed this plan. --Wuzh (talk) 00:19, 15 November 2020 (EST)
Acknowledged. Thank you for your approval. --Wuzh (talk) 22:02, 16 November 2020 (EST)

Sure that makes sense. I changed it because it was a great action shot, but I see your point. --Jcordell (talk) 20:46, 24 November 2020 (EST)--Jcordell (talk) 20:46, 24 November 2020 (EST)

Are you going to continue your work on the MI-Series from the 80's?--Exodianecross (talk) 20:25, 14 July 2022 (EDT)

IP Blocks
The IP blocks are hitting Cloudflare IPs, which is the proxy service that hosts all of our images, and inadvertently blocking other users (when they randomly get assigned the same IP by Cloudflare) from editing. Going forward we can block accounts, but not IPs. --bunni (talk) 21:47, 5 September 2022 (UTC)
Morbius
I wonder why you deleted the page that I had just created there are actually firearms in that movie is there? --User:Wolf1998 (talk) 18:56, 10 September 2022 (PST)
Sorry, but I see no reason to remove these pages.--Emto (talk) 18:11, 6 March 2023 (UTC)
Wolfenstein 3D page
Hello. I saw you were the one who has locked this page from creation. I found out that Atari Jaguar and a bit of 3DO/Macintosh/Apple IIGS ports all feature graphics with a higher resolution than it was in MS-DOS version; actually, two of the weapons (the pistol and the chaingun) are clearly edited Doom (VG)'s Beretta 92FS and its Tootsie-Toy "Ol' Painless"/Hand Held M134 Minigun, plus M16 from the cover is used in the game menu.
I think that probably could make such a page eligible in the way that the page about Doom (1993) is... if it's written this way with all the notes about ports, - and the firearms from MS-DOS version are placed in "trivia" category at best, with the words about that these sprites by itself doesn't allow to decide what firearms are these, and what have the developers implied in game hint books about these guns (for example, MS-DOS pistol is supposed to be a Walther P38, not Luger P08). What do you think? --MP-3008 (talk) 22:24, 15 March 2023 (UTC)
All right, so may I ask to unlock this page (now it's locked from creation)? I'd try to make a page about specific Atari Jaguar version, with probably MS-DOS and others placed in some "Trivia/Not Eligible" category under all examples.--MP-3008 (talk) 09:44, 1 April 2023 (UTC)
Forum Account
Yes, that worked. Thank you. I had to change emails because the one I had been using was getting way too much spam, but I haven't been getting confirmation emails at all for some reason despite trying multiple different emails. I'm wondering if the forum account creation being disabled here has something to do with it. Spartan198 (talk) 00:46, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
Doesn't surprise me. Forums as a platform have been dying out for a few good years now. 10:00, 20 March 2023 (UTC)
Is this ok to add to the site?
Can I add this film to the site? It is called a "documentary" but it plays like a movie. There are no talking heads, instead the film showa recreations of interviews of some of the participants of the Battle of the Little Bighorn from both sides of the fight with flashbacks of the battle anf the events that led up to it. Here are a couple of links to where the film can be watched. Let me know on my talk page if it is ok to add.

Yes, it is just from the site as of now. I know the director, so I can see what other plans are out there for distribution--The Cowboy General (talk) 20:17, 12 April 2023 (UTC)
Let me know if it is ok to add even if the website is enough of a distribution hub to add here.--The Cowboy General (talk) 21:22, 14 April 2023 (UTC)
There are/were plans to get the movie into film festivals, but I don't know if that fell through. The director wanted to get it on streaming services too. I am looking into this and will post any future updates on my talk page.--The Cowboy General (talk) 04:49, 18 April 2023 (UTC)
Here is another place where Custer's Strategy of Defeat can be streamed/viewed, does this meet the distribution requirement? Please let me know on my talk page. https://www.historyfix.com/custer-s-strategy-of-defeat?fbclid=IwAR0eSf8zGed-2zP1d2BwQAUoLjc9DM4bR64Cf-pvuLcC9iSJd4sc106KxHM--The Cowboy General (talk) 07:42, 4 June 2023 (UTC)
Issue with Helsinki
About the page Hellsinki (aka Rööperi), which previously had functional images but were now "deleted", the page's files were actually all broken during the wiki update last year that broke all the pages/categories/files with special characters in them. (e.g. letters with diacritics like "ö"). While we (me and bunni) managed to fix the broken main pages, we still haven't found a way to retrieve the broken files yet. If you want we can discuss about this in more detail on Discord. --Wuzh (talk) 17:19, 6 June 2023 (UTC)
Forbidden Siren 2
Ok if I make a new page for it? I'm capturing screenshots as I play since it seems the original deletion was "Noeffort" which to my understanding is when there's no screencaps of the weapons in-game. --Samz (talk) 21:11, 10 June 2023 (UTC)
The Great Sioux Massacre
I am having trouble with starting the page for The Great Sioux Massacre. I don't know how to add the box with the list of the different weapons that appears on the left of each page.--The Cowboy General (talk) 21:50, 19 December 2023 (UTC)--The Cowboy General (talk) 21:50, 19 December 2023 (UTC)
