^You can just use this code here: <gallery> File:whatever.jpg File:gamepic.jpg File:gamepic2.jpg|Use pike if you want a caption </gallery> Also, at right under Add features and media is a Gallery button to press (although that's if you switch to Source Editor; not sure if it's elsewhere if you use the Visual Editor). I put that in as well as an infobox. The pics look a little unusual since they're different sized but they're all in a row now, at least. My reflection is in one of the pictures and a man walked into another shot. I don't think it's necessary to blur out either picture because no faces are shown. It's your call. No, I don't think so. And more stats  *Half of the states have been added to the Dave & Buster's corporate page, although I'm taking a break from that *I don't recall how many pages were on the wiki beforehand, but I'm pretty sure members on here have added 10% of the wiki's total so far, if not a little more *Bboy members make up the majority of the total wiki members, as well as *Its been fun watching the top 10 contributors page being constantly on the move (although it might not be visible if people don't have an account; I can't recall) *Member numbers have now hit the double digits |

Fatal Rewind Possibly my connection. I encountered 1 issue with the gallery where it freezed when I had more than 5 pictures. Can you even add a page w/o an account? I guess I can see the top-10 because I have an account. Nice to see that I am #3. Happy to help you.

Your guess is as bad as mine  Can you even add a page w/o an account? Yes, or not sign in, either will work. People have done so before without an account. Nice to see that I am #3. For now; that might change  I guess I can see the top-10 because I have an account. No, it turns out you can see it without an account, I just haven't edited my post. Glad to have it! |

^You can just use this code here: <gallery> File:whatever.jpg File:gamepic.jpg File:gamepic2.jpg|Use pike if you want a caption </gallery> Is it case sensitive? I'll just have to copy and paste file names before the Gallery boycotts me. |

I'm not sure. The names have to match, at least.

Great looking recent pages. Great archive Fatal. A great piece of arcade history.

Possibly THE last status report before this topic gets closed and archived, due to Tampa putting in the GameTime Tampa page, that led to me doing a corporate page for the company itself: arcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/GameTimeLike with this being part of the previous BOTM topic, again, if anyone thinks someone would be interested in this wiki, please send them the url of it to them. If anyone has any questions or anything after this topic gets archived and locked, I can be reached at my message wall on the wiki or PMed on here. Thanks to everyone who has added stuff. Many pages will become Featured arcades of the month, including the corporate pages. I usually have those changed out within the first two days of every month (if not the evening before a new month), so do check by the front page at the start of every month to see if yours went up (each page has to have several games per arcade listed though). For a while I didn't really worry about these, since I had many arcades I went to here in town, so a lot of the featured ones are from here in Houston. I've since just about run out of arcades to feature though due to people not adding hardly squat to the wiki, so these new pages buy me several more months of features. I also plan on making the achievement badges arcade-related, rather than being the stock b. s. that is being used now (but at least the wiki has badges/accomplishment points anyway). Here are all of the pages that bboy members added over these last two months: arcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/Alexander_Hamilton_Rest_Stop_Arcadearcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/Funtime_Pizza_CircusThe Arcade - Fast Times at Ridgemont Higharcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/SportsworldTimeOut GameZone (SkyWorld)arcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/GameTime_TampaMalibu Jack's (Ky)Dave & Buster's (Cary, NC)arcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/Joystick_Gamebararcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/Game_Nest_ArcadeAnd these runners-ups were due to being corporations that I added myself due to several of the above pages: arcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/TimeOut_GameZonearcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/Malibu_Jack's (just copy and paste this, don't know why Proboards isn't doing a direct link) Dave & Buster'sarcadepreservation.wikia.com/wiki/GameTimeAlso, if these two people below will let me know if they plan to add anything to these pages or not then I will: bigballofyarn Alexander Hamilton Rest Stop Arcade Cheap Trixie Dave & Busters : Cary, NC And last but not least, my other gaming wikis (what, don’t TELL me you thought all along this was my only one! Bah ha ha): BOTSS (Bottom Of The Screen Shooter, being anything from the earliest arcade Space Invaders [and even earlier than that] games and rip-offs to Bubble Shooter-type games of nowadays) Vectrex |

Fatal Rewind, I have nothing more to add to Alexander Hamilton Rest Stop Arcade. It was small and I added all the information that was available.

Well, what I meant with these last two was more info from the corporate Dave & Buster's that could be added to it and categories. Because like with the truck stop, categories need to be "Arcades in New Jersey", "Arcades in Secaucus", "Arcades in U. S. A." and "Current arcades". That way people can click on the categories for N. Jersey, Seacaucus (although there'd only be one for that), U. S. A. and/or Current arcades if they wanted to see more from those categories.
That's the main thing. Infoboxes are usually good too in order to sum up things, along with making a more educated guess as to what years a place was open, like I did with the Funtime Pizza place and possibly amount of games there (I just guessed with "dozens").

We're not as good as you yet. We will learn the ways of arcade wikia. |

My reflection is in one of the pictures and a man walked into another shot. I don't think it's necessary to blur out either picture because no faces are shown. It's your call.
