Keeping the Char party rolling because Zeong is now fit for consumption, minus one little paragraph. http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Zeong_(EXVSFB) Not sure what we'll do next, but you'll see it here soon.

I'll chime in here real quick regarding the wiki. Currently Zaku III is not a unit that is high on our priority list for translation work so if you want to jump in and do some work on his page we would love for you to. Anything at all is appreciated, even if you want to just make his basic page skeleton. Currently he has nothing and at our current workload and rate of completion he won't have much for a while. You can find the link to start his page at the bottom of the wiki http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Gundam_Extreme_VS._Full_Boost and an example of a good page skeleton can be found on Stargazer's page http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Stargazer_(EXVSFB) I would recommend you poke around the wiki a little bit and check out other pages to get a feel for our format. If you have any questions just direct them to us in the Wiki thread and we can try to help you out.

akai_GO and I finished up Sinanju's page in the past couple of days, all that remains is quotes (which will be done later today) http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Sinanju_(EXVSFB) Most likely Zeong next

Been a while so I figured I'd post a progress update akai_GO and I used green particle magic to finish 00's page It's like 98% done, just needs a few little things and it's finished, but I figured I'd post it here anyway. Coming in the near future: Banshee 00 Quanta Sinanju Zeong edit: as a side note, a while back people were requesting God's quotes be done, but I think I forgot to post about it when they were finished, so there they are as for future unit quotes, akai_GO and I have started collaborating to finish unit pages faster, so what is likely going to happen is that unit quotes will just be added as we work on pages together, and we'll get around to adding quotes for already-completed pages sometime in the future.

Also for deployments iirc 1 full arcade run only counts as one deployment total? Not sure if that's true or false I just remember seeing it somewhere

OK, was going through a lot of pages trying to figure out who I felt like TLing next and we may have a problem with certain units, like poor Acguy here: http://www4.atwiki.jp/arcgundamexvsfuvo/pages/29.html He literally has no tactics section. So maybe if we want to keep an open list of units that need some kind soul to write a paragraph or two about how to play them and maybe a bit about bursts for them that might be a good thing.

OK so I got in a groove and did all of Turn A's tactics and his responses too. Some pretty useful information in his burst selection actually. http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Turn_A_Gundam_(EXVSFB) As a side note I am MOSTLY translating unique responses but I also do the very commonly heard ones (for example I did the ones Loran yells when he does his A like 環境を考えろォッ!) since people hear those a lot and maybe wonder what they mean. And I am sure some people have noticed a large different in unit response section size-- simply put, some units have a LOT more responses than others. From now on I'm probably just going to do responses in conjuction with tactics sections (and might go back and do responses for some tactics sections I've already done) edit: based on popular request, next set of quotes is God, lol

Pheeeew LaGOWE's tactics are done http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=LaGOWE_(EXVSFB)#EX_Burst_Selection Of particular interest here is the piece that someone added to the JP wiki very recently about 1000/1000 cost combinations with ReGZ (it's at the very bottom) Apparently she gives the 1000/1000 cost comp a leg up if she makes good usage of her BWS purges. Basically the idea is that the other 1k acts as a decoy for the enemies and she gets to land tons of damage with her normal ranged + BWS purges. Movin' on to Ksha's tactics now. Will probably come back and finish up LaGOWE's page a bit later, all he's missing is his melee weapon info and his combos and he'll be finished.

Oooh you're gonna do Turn A, nice. I will probably proofread your work and add in his weapons/tactics data then. LaGOWE is coming along nicely, should be done with him soon and then onto Ksha and then I'll prob hop in with you on Turn A unless you want to try your hand at translating his stuff (in which case I will just go through and work with/correct whatever you do) And yeah please don't worry about weird damage values like that. There are plenty of values on the JP wiki where not even they are certain about some exact attack damage values. As for notation, 90% of the time I use ABC with directional inputs etc. It's easier (to my eyes) to read and understand especially for combos, although I guess some beginners may find it initially confusing I think it's overall the easier way so it's best they learn to read it that way.

Yeah gonna also echo that the Extremes are some pages I've been avoiding as well, but if you wanna do them more power to you. Any unit with any kind of transform is going to be more difficult than ones without. One thing: I'd like it if we keep at least one page as a "template" page to easily copy for creating the skeletons of other pages. I've pretty much just been copying Stargazer's page over and over these past couple days doing the unit responses (RX-78, Chargoog and Acguy are up btw, Zeong later today) because it's the closest to a blank template I've found (several other units have different skeletons/structure set up) but if there's a better way we can have a stock page template that would be cool. One thing about the unit responses: TONS of these are quotes ripped verbatim from the shows, I actually had to skim through 1-2 episodes of MSG again to figure out a few of them because they are presented out of context (like Char's win screen line about a Zeon medal of honor makes no sense if you haven't seen the scene it's from) so if anyone sees a quote and knows the proper line from the show please feel free to replace my translations. I'm probably going to do all the base units before touching the DLC. Trying to do one per day but some units have quite a few unique responses so they might take longer.

Google Translate alone is going to be nearly useless for this wiki because they use tons of japanese fighting game terms and EXVS-exclusive lingo (akai_GO put up a list of them which does help some) which google translate simply cannot read. To give you some idea, here's a piece of LaGOWE's page: 問題の攻撃に関しては地形の起伏が激しいだけでメインが他の機体以上に当て辛く、ブースト的にも厳しいとひたすら苦痛。 敵にとって有利な場所で待ちゲーされると詰んでると言っても過言ではないので熱くならずに精神戦や連携で頑張ろう。 And here's what Google Translate makes of it: "The pain is the main single-mindedly devoted to spicy aircraft over other terrain relief is just intense, and severe also boost basis for attacking the problem. The harambee in cooperation and spirit warfare not hot because it is not an exaggeration to say that picking it to be gated to wait in an advantageous place for the enemy." Needless to say, I don't think many people need to worry about spicy aircraft and spirit warfare when playing LaGOWE. That said, this really only applies to the sections where they get deep into game mechanics like the tactics sections. You can (and I think burgerkong has) probably skate by on using Google and a combination of Rikaikun (fabulous chrome extension) to handle most of the tables. We're very short-handed on help so really anything at all is helpful. There are a ton of pages that burgerkong has already put up on Google Docs but need to be properly transcribed to the wiki pages and it would be a huge help if you (or anyone else) wanted to do even one of those. You can usually find the google doc linked at the top of the unit pages.

Welcome back man. It's no big deal, I've been slacking too and only got back into working on it recently. Trying to do 1 unit's tactics per week and doing the unit responses for fun. Doing them in order atm, RX-78's will be up later today. Incidentally LaGOWE's tactics are done and on the wiki now, burst selection and partners are up next and should be done in a couple days. I'll look over Banshee for sure.

Oops I accidentally did all of Raphael's unique responses (mostly cause there weren't too many of them) http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Raphael_Gundam_(EXVSFB) And I'll go ahead and link the source locations for all these. Here's the database of Full Boost characters (this includes navigators) http://www41.atwiki.jp/gundam-vs-gnsk/pages/615.html And here is the database of Maxi Boost ones. http://www41.atwiki.jp/gundam-vs-gnsk/pages/815.html These are updated very quickly (they already have all of the new DLC suits' full quote lists in)

LaGOWE is about half done (hasn't been put up on wiki yet) should be done by the end of this week then it's Ksha->Banshee or Turn A depending on whether anyone else would prefer to translate Banshee's tactics Started doing Rozen Zulu's unit responses on a whim, will probably finish them up later. Decided to organize it by unit rather than by response type. http://www.dustloop.com/wiki/index.php?title=Rozen_Zulu_(EXVSFB) As for the redlock table it might be impossible honestly. I too wanted to copy the JP wiki's table style verbatim because it looks so nice but I think it's some kind of feature of their wiki software, I wasn't able to duplicate it using the wiki we're using. Might just have to do the excel table and reorganize it a bit Probably best to just make a redlock range table page like the JP wiki has and link to it in the bottom bar. That's probably going to be easier than editing EVERY single unit page to put in just the redlock data. I also think it's easier to understand the redlock comparatively between units rather than as just a number isolated from context

Raph's tactics are up. Will probably touch them up and fill out the rest of his page eventually. Is burgerkong still around? I'm moving onto finishing up LaGOWE next, and after that Kshatriya. I was interested in Banshee, but he was working on Banshee so I dunno if he already had some of it finished or what. Looks like akai_GO already TLed basically everything from Banshee's page except for the tactics, which is what I would do.
