Are Linux screenshots necessary?

     No. Just looks like some cheap advertising to me. Even the word Linux has been highlighted in italics. Nerval, I don't mind the one screenshot but I don't approve of you pasting advertisements for your operating system everywhere. Besides, it's just an emu. At least remove the mention of 'linux' in every single caption. These are emulations of arcade games. Not linux. I don't want to offend you but your intention is obvious. --Mysterious Bob 16:02, 5 April 2006 (UTC)

         The screenshots are totally inappropriate, I agree - As for Street Fighter Alpha 3 for example, it's just wrong for a screenshot of a game in "384 x 224"-resolution to be 1280x1024, 728kb in size and to show more of the firefox browser than of the actual game.

             Took new ingame screenshots and replaced the old ones. Added two of the three linux-screenshots to the category "Orphaned unfree images" because they're no longer used. Going to remove them next week (tag them for speedy deletion). elias.hc 20:21, 15 April 2006 (UTC)

Ahh... it's nice to see that the change has been made. Great screenshots. Thanks. I might add shots for the rest of the games tommorow including SF1. --Mysterious Bob 22:50, 18 April 2006 (UTC)

                 Ouch I see this late :) I don't mind those screenshots being removed at all, I just took those screenshots under my computer and I'm not sure about copyright issues. I mean, I did use this operating system and that program to get that screenshot; would it be okay if I didn't mention it? If it is, then I should have presented only the picture. Now that there are in half pictures, it's okay though :) Cheers; --Nerval 07:51, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Can somebody please stop adding Japanese flags to all the characters? Akuma and Gouken have never been confirmed Japanese (Akuma has appeared in Thailand, China, Japan, and his own island in the south Pacific). This is confirmed in SFIV where both of these characters do not have flags on the select screen, even though everybody else does. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.141.22.60 (talk) 18:09, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

It is explained that akuma and gouken are Japan. Peep at the official of Japan(SUPER STREET FIGHTER IV) with the translation machine if you think that it is a lie. 211.122.241.79 (talk) 12:00, 10 May 2010 (UTC)

Hirsutism is a symptom rather than a disease and may be a sign of a more serious medical condition, like being Iranian.

"Het" is the opposite of "slash" (by most of the term's definitions) and femslash, yaoi, shounen-ai, yuri or shoujo-ai, classifying a romance and/or sexually explicit story which has as its main focus a heterosexual relationship.

Vegthro

Okay, I have been looking at some VeggieTales fan fictions and fan pics and I keep coming up with the word “Vegthro.” After some research, I’ve learned it means “the concept of turning VeggieTales characters into humans.” I don’t know if this would go under this category or where to put it. Lady of Versailles 02:11, 12 August 2007 (UTC)

That's kind of interesting, but unless it's part of a multi-fandom naming pattern, I'm afraid it's a bit too specific and obscure to be suited for this article (otherwise, we'd be inviting a million fans to add the countless dozens of slang terms for their thousands of fandoms and communities. You might be able to work it in as a trivia item in the VeggieTales article or something, though. :) 4.238.13.115 23:25, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
