Material and Weapon image moves

Could you please process the following image rename-without-redirects?

• File:HW Link's Scarf.png to File:HW Link's Scarf Icon.png (since it's transparencied, whereas the others are not)
• http://zeldawiki.org/index.php?title=Weapons_in_Hyrule_Warriors&diff=424371&oldid=424111
• http://zeldawiki.org/index.php?title=Material&diff=424317&oldid=424224

If any of these won't work because of jpg to png conversion error, let me know and I can try to fix the files using GIMP. There might also be some problems with the ? in the name of the 8-Bit weapons, which probably means the file name will just have to drop that.KrytenKoro (talk) 17:29, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, sure. I'm on my 3DS right now, but I'll be getting on a computer pretty soon so I'll take care of those files then, unless one of the other admins wants to do it before I can. User:WilliamLC/sig 20:44, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

Also, since you seem to be the one taking up the move work, should I go ahead and standardize the names on the costume page, or would that create undue work for you?KrytenKoro (talk) 21:43, 24 November 2014 (UTC)

Yeah, go ahead with the standardization, just let me know the new naming scheme. I was unable to get to a computer this afternoon (I'm on my 3DS still), but I'll definitely be able to tomorrow morning. User:WilliamLC/sig 00:47, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

I've just been going with "HW namefromgame.png" for everything else. I'll list the name changes, but note that it looks like some users have been renaming the images without dealing with the redirects, so there might be some cleanup in the "whatlinkshere". (example]])KrytenKoro (talk) 01:09, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

Okay, I've renamed the ones we have official names for (that I can verify); I left unchanged the TP and SS skins, which I don't have, and the TP DLC pack skins, which aren't out yet. Here.KrytenKoro (talk) 01:19, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

I'm not going to have nearly as much time here as I thought I would, and its looking like at best I wont be able to do anything major for another day or two. I'm moving into a new apartment so I'm going to be a little busy for the rest of today and likely a little bit tomorrow, so, those edits you made to the various HW pages, are you just renaming the images on them, just not moving the images? I just need to know what to go off of the next time I get on here. User:WilliamLC/sig 19:30, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

The three pages in question have the correct image names (meaning the pages are mostly full of currently broken links), but those images still need to be moved -- once the images have been moved, they should show up on the page without any further edits necessary. Also, just to make sure things are clear, the Link's Scarf image in the lead infobox should be a different image than the one in the tables.

As far as the costumes go, those have been used on pages outside of the costume page, so those will require edits -- however, I didn't want to get the staff coming down on me for temporarily leaving broken image links all over the wiki, so I haven't changed those yet. If you can let me know when you (or another admin, if you want to trade this off) are planning to start moving the images, I can go through and do all the remaining link corrections.KrytenKoro (talk) 20:29, 25 November 2014 (UTC)

I'd hold off in that case. I have a tool called ReplaceText that we admins use, so don't even worry about any of that stuff. Whatever you can't rename I can go through with ReplaceText and fix pretty easily. 05:31, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

Alright, I'm officially in my apartment now. I'm going to get started with some of the moving now. 16:25, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

Alright, so the Weapons page is fixed and the Materials page is partially fixed, so I'm gonna go take a break for a bit, let me know what else needs fixing. User:WilliamLC/sig 17:16, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

I don't quite understand what you were doing here. Was the "-fo's" thing intentional? Also, I thought the plan was to remove the non-standard "Icon" from the image names. Also, Zant's Scimatars images (and weapon name) are now named with "Scimitar" instead.

Basically, as I had understood the plan, the pages themselves would not need editing, as the links would be "correct" for after the image move.

I mean, I can change them all to end with "Icon", but then we'd have to move the ones that currently don't have that. So which naming scheme do you prefer, I guess?KrytenKoro (talk) 22:18, 26 November 2014 (UTC)

Either is fine. So many of the images already have it so I really don't want to have go through and remove it on so many images. Any new images uploaded/added should be named with the Icon thing. User:WilliamLC/sig 00:26, 27 November 2014 (UTC)

So I should rename all of them to use "Icon", then? It looks like with weapons, at least, there are more without Icon than with. I can perform the moves myself if that would help, leaving only deletion of the redirects for you.KrytenKoro (talk) 13:27, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

No, don't rename anything. Just leave it like it is. As I said, existing images are fine, new images must be renamed. User:WilliamLC/sig 18:27, 28 November 2014 (UTC)

I'm glad you like it ~

I see your using the Gorons Tunic Render i did for HW, it makes me happy knowing you like it enough to use it as such. I hope that the renders I have provided are, at the very least, up to the wiki's standards.

Sorry to butt in but are you kidding me it's amazing *-*!!!! I saw someone linked to it outside the wiki and I was wondering who had done it...excellent job!! --Dany36 (talk) 03:21, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

thank you very much, I'm glad you approve.
Ixbran (talk) 03:27, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Oh yes it is quite nice, I just gotta say, wow. The amount of patience it must've taken to not only screenshot it at just the right frame, then do what I imagine would be hours upon hours of slaving in a photo editor, just wow. You did a great job, please keep it up! :) User:WilliamLC/sig 06:36, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Thank you, I really appreciate knowing you approve of my work. I have to say really, the ones that took me the most time, are the ones I took screen shots during attack animations. Sheiks Dark Recolor, both of Agithas recolors, Darunias Darmani recolor. Other recolors involve them performing idle animations, or focus spirit activation animations. I was in the process of showing these too a friend as I worked on them, and she commented how all the work I put into these being a labor of love, and she is right. I am a huge fan of both DW and LoZ, and I wanted the wikis to have the recolor costumes, but I also wanted them to be interesting to look at. So I felt the hard work was all worth it if people enjoyed them.

and knowing you do appreciate the work I put into it does indeed make it worth it.

MM Pack Masks

If its alright with you, I'm just going to take screen shots of their victory animations of them in their masks. It seems like it'd be needlessly difficult to render their mask costumes, when its just their default costume with an accessory. I hope thats alright.
