I think that one (IIRC the one that actually had a page was Resistance 2) was largely deleted for being terrible, I think resistance is doable since it's pretty well-known the carbine was redesigned by an M14 fan on the dev team because he hated the original (which looked like a rectangle with a barrel and scope) and there's real M14s in the logo. I'm a little concerned with how awful the screencaps he's uploading are, though. [[User:Evil Tim|Evil Tim]] ([[User talk:Evil Tim|talk]]) 20:27, 9 January 2015 (EST)
== Screen Used ==


:Yeah, here's the original carbine: http://resistance.wikia.com/wiki/File:Preproduction_Hybrid.jpg which also featured the old Hybrid head which was redone because the same dev thought it looked like a duck in this shot.
Hello, '''Funkychinaman'''! I'm so sorry for my mistake - adding wrongly category.

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.

Yeh! :) I always create an article first so it's saved into the database before adding more info to it. More stuff will be added.
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.
--[[User:Death Shadow20|Death Shadow20]] ([[User talk:Death Shadow20|talk]]) 15:20, 4 April 2016 (EDT)


I'm in the last stages for my ''[[X-Files]]'' pages (finished up S9 page with caps and all), all that's left is the last round of cross-listings for the gun pages and I was going to add Infobox templates for the individual season pages (possibly also the film pages, though I'm leaving the main page alone). As such, I was starting to go about setting up the Infobox templates as well as add filming/production categories on the pages - But before doing so, in terms of of both Categorizing and listing on the Infobox templates for the season pages, should it only be listed as Canadian Produced/Filmed for the first five seasons and combine USA/Canada for the rest (I believe Chris Carter's company 1013 Productions is Canadian, not certain though) and/or should USA be noted for all the pages (Per the FOX network, etc)? I'm asking a couple folks this, would like a good idea of how to proceed as I'm not sure in this case, with the not exact merging of US and Canadian stuff here. Any help on this matter would be appreciated. [[User:StanTheMan|StanTheMan]] ([[User talk:StanTheMan|talk]]) 17:39, 13 February 2015 (EST)
== Commando Black Ops? ==
: I just checked that (Was looking up proper cast lists and production/distribution companies for infoboxes to put on the film pages), and indeed both are US companies. With that, I might not list Canada in the infoboxes, but will probably categorize the appropriate pages as Canadian Produced/Filmed though. I know X-Files was one of the more noted shows filmed in BC, and a lot of stuff pertains to it.. I'll look into a bit more and consult with MT2008 if I can (he's well-read on the show, especially the Vancouver portion), so I guess we'll see. Thanks for the input. [[User:StanTheMan|StanTheMan]] ([[User talk:StanTheMan|talk]]) 18:25, 13 February 2015 (EST)
:: Ahhh.. I wondered what the deal was with the filmed/produced categories. That said, you had stated prior many may not qualify just because they're filmed in BC (to which I understand and agree), but again, this one had big links to Vancouver for the first five seasons.. Perhaps this instance may fall into one of those grey areas (But then again perhaps not). All-told, I think my original suggestion of S1-S5 being listed as Canada and USA and the rest USA only is probably the best way to go here - More than anything its worth noting and, to an extent, emphasizing, the difference in filming location. I'd like to get some more details to be sure but that seems to me to be the best course, if that would be okay with you guys, of course. [[User:StanTheMan|StanTheMan]] ([[User talk:StanTheMan|talk]]) 21:52, 13 February 2015 (EST)
::: This is true, though I worried about going into writeups for fear of getting ''too'' in-depth in regards to background trivia and such - I feel I'm not the best candidate for writeups (I've done some stuff, but never anything to the extent you're suggesting), always think I'll go a bit overboard with my yabbering - BUT! Might indeed be fun to work up some stuff, I am aware of much of these things and more still, certainly enough to where it could be done - I could certainly see about tackling it once I have all the technical stuff out of the way. Appreciate the thoughts here, thanks again. [[User:StanTheMan|StanTheMan]] ([[User talk:StanTheMan|talk]]) 22:44, 13 February 2015 (EST)
:::: Well, those are good points - I certainly don't want to get into a squabble over it, so there it is. I suppose when there is a 'Canadian Filmed' category or something it can always be dealt with it later. Of course I could ignore making writeups and the infoboxes and dodge the issue completely, but what would be the fun in that? Anyway, if that's the deal, then I'll ignore MT's recommendation and leave this matter be. As you said, I can note it the writeups (which I'm still forming up, so not like I'm on the edge waiting for the decision on this matter here, heh) and ultimately I guess it's not that big a deal. Hell I myself am one of those who think there's a few too many categories anyway, so indeed, probably better to just disregard that aspect anyway. [[User:StanTheMan|StanTheMan]] ([[User talk:StanTheMan|talk]]) 17:55, 15 February 2015 (EST)


===Writeups===
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". He said it in the link. http://www.imfdb.org/wiki/Talk:Call_of_Duty:_Black_Ops#Commando_in_Black_Ops. I'm am trying to figure it out what the gun really is. --[[User:Treliazz777|Treliazz777]] ([[User talk:Treliazz777|talk]]) 22:23, 15 April 2016 (EDT)

== Regarding Subpages and Independent Releases ==
 
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)
 
== 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. :( --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk: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? --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk: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. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 22:50, 13 July 2016 (EDT)

== Steyr Mannlicher Model SL ==
Regarding [[Steyr Mannlicher Model SL]] - in fact it is more of a full working gun modified beyond belief. [[(Blade Runner) - LAPD 2019 Blaster|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. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk: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. --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk:Kloga|talk]]) 10:49, 14 July 2016 (EDT)
::Good idea! Should [[Blade Runner]] still be listed in the sub-section? --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk: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 [[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)
::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. ;) --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk: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). --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk: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.  --[[User:Kloga|Kloga]] ([[User talk: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.

:How many movies with PLA-used weapons have entries on this wiki anyway?

:: 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.

: 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.  [[User:StanTheMan|StanTheMan]] ([[User talk:StanTheMan|talk]]) 16:55, 24 January 2017 (EST)

== Vulcan Minigun ==


== Cover letter ==
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.--[[User:Gunnerboy|Gunnerboy]] ([[User talk: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".--[[User:AgentGumby|AgentGumby]] ([[User talk:AgentGumby|talk]]) 20:01, 2 February 2018 (EST)

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.
I even did not expect that I will have to finish alone. --[[User:Pandolfini|Pandolfini]] ([[User talk:Pandolfini|talk]]) 16:22, 2 July 2015 (EDT)

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.


I was going to add this to the Call Of Duty: Black Ops 3 page, but I kinda need your opinion on something: What the heck would I label it under? It looks to be based on the Bulldog shotgun but, and I'm not kidding, is called a Semi-Automatic Rifle in game.

Hey man, noticed you asked about "hasn't this been out for a while now?" regarding the status of [[Squad]]'s release.

== Yes! ==
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?

Hi, I created a page for the Sky Atlantic series Tin Star a few years back, but didnt have access to footage of decent enough quality to provide screenshots and therefore the page was deleted. I saved the wikitext and there is now a second season out, and I have access to episodes to make screenshots. Would you consider allowing the page to be recreated? Thanks - [[User:PeterGeorgeR|PeterGeorgeR]] 21:32 GMT 17 February 2019

== Help on identifying an AR-15 ==
It is complete all the weapons in game are already there with their information, someone else put "in-complete" on it for i dont know what reason
Hi. I just watched "Dark Was the Night" yesterday, and came across this (pics below) AR-15 type rifle, which doesn't really look like a rifle I've seen before, and it has a big weird muzzle-break-thingy on the barrel. I think it might be a Non-Gun AR-15, but I'm not sure. It would make sense, though, since most of the guns are fired off-screen in the film, and the one time they show firing on-screen, is a flaspaper Beretta. Let me know what you think. --[[User:Warejaws|Warejaws]] ([[User talk:Warejaws|talk]]) 05:21, 15 September 2015 (EDT)

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.


Your latest screenshots seem to be in the right ratio. --[[User:Ben41|Ben41]] ([[User talk:Ben41|talk]]) 04:57, 30 October 2015 (EDT)
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".

'''Submachine guns:'''
Hello. I saw you were the one who has locked this page from creation. [[Talk:Wolfenstein 3D|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).

==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.

007 Agent Under Fire

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.

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!

Cuestion regarding one of the movie's title.

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. --Death Shadow20 (talk) 15:20, 4 April 2016 (EDT)

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)
Thanks! --Kloga (talk) 23:04, 13 July 2016 (EDT)

Steyr Mannlicher Model SL

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)

Okay, thanks, I'll move it to it's own page. I'm working on a few more sandbox things, I'll wrote on them when I 'll be ready. --Kloga (talk) 18:37, 26 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. Also, I'm puzzled how they were able to smuggle a HK416D which is commercially available since 2005 in a 2003 game. That's probably the reason why it have slightly more images then needed for it. --Kloga (talk) 20:42, 26 July 2016 (EDT)

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?

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.

Some question of rare gun in movie

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.

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.

P.S.: There is a documentary about this film if u want to find more details:Marele Jaf Comunist(The Great Comunist Robbery) from 2004 by Alexandru Solomon.--VLAD M (talk) 09:56, 14 April 2017 (EDT)

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. I will however need some help identifying the weapons and to that end I have tried numerous times to log into the forums to make a thread about this but am unable to do so. 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.

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 Carbinesfrcollector.com"

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?

Thanks! --OngYingGao (talk) 06:55, 18 July 2018

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.

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.

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? --Mazryonh (talk) 20:39, 18 October 2020 (EDT)

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. --Mazryonh (talk) 12:18, 19 October 2020 (EDT)

Phasing out the "SVD-M" name

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".

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)

Mission Impossible 1988/1989

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)

Cannons / hovitzers etc.

122 mm howitzer M1938 (M-30)
152 mm howitzer M1937 (ML-20)
203 mm howitzer M1931 (B-4)

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. https://aviationpicturesimtp.com/?fbclid=IwAR3PniaurtYYxJgodb7wARLRspkmHTLnd_tIjl49AGmC7QFccY_3dy3fnDM````

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)
