Welcome to IMFDB
Before you do any editing please take the time to read the Rules, Standards and Principles. This is a very important document that explains how this website is setup as well as telling you what is and isn't allowed. If it is determined by an admin that you have not read these rules, your account will be suspended. Continued non-compliance may result in a permanent ban. After that you should also read the IMFDB Screencapping Guide and the IMFDB Style Guide to familiarize yourself with the image and formatting requirements for pages you create.
There are a number of pages that desperately need your help. You can find these Incomplete pages here.
If you have any questions, feel free to post them here but make sure to sign your post by typing --~~~~.
Finally, IMFDB has a forum set up here that is only available to registered members. There is lots of good stuff to see there. If you would like to join the forum, please post HERE and an account will be created for you.
Now, HAPPY EDITING! bunni (talk) 13:11, 4 August 2016 (EDT)
Unit 13
Your page for Unit 13 will need a lot of work to avoid deletion. It needs to be properly formatted, and perhaps more importantly, it will need screenshots. Please go over the IMFDB Style Guide and the IMFDB Screencapping Guide for help. The IMFDB Page Templates page will also help with formatting. --Funkychinaman (talk) 11:25, 5 August 2016 (EDT)
- I've moved the page here, so you can take your time with it. --Funkychinaman (talk) 14:35, 6 August 2016 (EDT)
- Per the Style Guide, please refrain from using generic file names for your uploads. Thanks. --Funkychinaman (talk) 11:17, 17 November 2016 (EST)
Image Names
Please don't use generic names for the images that you upload. I renamed HK416.jpg, FAMAS.jpg and AMELI.jpg and corrected links on Unit 13 page but you have to re-upload the image for M14 as you previously overwrote an existing image that is used on another page.

Screencaps
Please take a moment to crop the black bars from your screencaps. The instructions on how to do so are in the Screencapping Guide. Please replace the ones you've already uploaded. Thanks. --Funkychinaman (talk) 09:01, 29 April 2017 (EDT)
Syphon Filter
As long as you have screenshots, I'll do what I can in terms of IDs. --Funkychinaman (talk) 06:53, 20 May 2017 (EDT)
- I'm not sure about screencaps from a PS Vita, but if there videos on Youtube, there HAS to be a way, right? --Funkychinaman (talk) 17:39, 1 June 2017 (EDT)
- BTW, there's probably a better way to rip from youtube. You can find a plugin or browser extension that'll rip the video, and then you can just use VLC to cap it. --Funkychinaman (talk) 18:02, 1 June 2017 (EDT)
I'm working on it, but this may be a bit difficult. The Vita is incapable of taking screenshots of PSP games. So unless I have a picture of the manual, it will be hard. -Ft763

Hollow Man 2
I'm not sure which template you're using to format your new pages, but it's not correct. Please refer to the IMFDB Page Templates page for the correct formatting. --Funkychinaman (talk) 12:22, 22 June 2017 (EDT)
- Err, I think I fixed it when doing it.(to Funkychinaman) If not, then you can fix anything wrong. (to FT763) -SeptemberJack (talk) 12:40, 22 June 2017 (EDT)
- Sorry, but your screenshots for Hollow Man 2 appear to not be in the correct format. Please refer to the IMFDB Screencapping Guide for further assistance. --Ben41 (talk) 17:13, 22 June 2017 (EDT)
Hello all, I will endeavour to edit the pictures as best as I can. Since we are on this topic, may I ask for any assistance for IDing the weapons in 'The Perfect Weapon'? I really need help to identify them. Thanks. -Ft763
- Please finish one page first before starting another one. --Funkychinaman (talk) 22:31, 22 June 2017 (EDT)
The Perfect Weapon
In the future, please try to identify at least one weapon when making a page. Setting up a page with no ID's doesn't make users want to help. --Ben41 (talk) 05:22, 23 June 2017 (EDT)
Pages
Please take a moment to categorize your pages. They are incomplete otherwise. --Funkychinaman (talk) 22:27, 23 June 2017 (EDT)
- The page for Syphon Filter: Dark Mirror needs links, gun images, and categories. Please go back and complete the page. Thanks. --Funkychinaman (talk) 11:14, 6 July 2017 (EDT)
Your Silent Hill and Syphon Filter Page Edits
I appreciate your hard work on fleshing out the Syphon Filter series pages, but I think you used emphasis marks (such as italicized and capitalized words) a bit too much on the pages for the Silent Hill games. Too many emphasis marks make them lose their impact, so they'll be toned down in the near future, though it's clear that you appreciated my joke about how the "Some parts of this game" warnings in that series actually aren't accurate unless you do a pacifist run (and you still have to kill the bosses).
By the way, are you going to add screenshots of the Syphon Filter guns where they're actually being used in gameplay? Just seeing them in the inventory screens fills the minimum standards for this wiki, but actually seeing the guns in action (like the screenshots for Omega Strain's taser) will make those pages look much more interesting. --Mazryonh (talk) 19:33, 11 August 2017 (EDT)
Ah, I see. Yeah sure, that could be done but I might need some time to get pictures. -Ft763
- That would be much appreciated (especially since Syphon Filter has fallen by the wayside despite the developers still being around and making games like Uncharted: Golden Abyss). But in any case, including only screenshots of guns in the inventory view in games kind of makes the page look like a bunch of scans from a mail-order gun catalogue (and those actually existed in the good ol' US of A until the Gun Control Act of 1968). The action shots make them look more interesting in my experience. --Mazryonh (talk) 19:22, 19 August 2017 (EDT)
Skeleton Man
Please properly format the Skeleton Man page. Please also take a moment to crop the blank space off of your screencaps, then reupload. The instructions on how to do so are available in the IMFDB Screencapping Guide. --Funkychinaman (talk) 09:46, 30 August 2017 (EDT)
Sorry, but I'm a tad exhausted at the moment. I'll strive to do so when I'm in a better mindset. -Ft63
- Please finish the page for Skeleton Man before starting another one. --Funkychinaman (talk) 10:26, 31 August 2017 (EDT)
Your Recent Pages
A few of the movies you're doing pages for don't seem to have very good sources to take screenshots from. These screenshots are very blurry and one cannot make a definite identification of the weapons. If these movies are from YouTube, it's recommended that you don't use this as a source unless it's in 720p or 1080p HD. DVD's or BluRay's are better sources to use. --Ben41 (talk) 14:47, 31 August 2017 (EDT)
alien covenant
Please do not add any more screenshots for any more films unless you crop the excess black space! --Ben41 (talk) 05:33, 22 September 2017 (EDT)
