Starting a new year

So, I was going to post news, but I'm not entirely sure about the correct process to wipe out the page and start a new year, so I'd rather not really do anything. Can someone do that, please? DiamondEdge (talk) 11:02, January 7, 2013 (UTC)

Okay, that should be good to go. -- Some Color Mage ~ (Talk) 11:15, January 7, 2013 (UTC)

Thank you DiamondEdge (talk) 11:34, January 7, 2013 (UTC)

It's getting a PC rerelase in Japan tomorrow.—Kaimi (999,999 CP/5 TP) 12:39, May 15, 2013 (UTC)

Versus XIII now XV?

Either that or the company are dumb. JBed (talk) 00:15, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

Nice find. They may be being dumb though.Keltainentoukokuu (talk) 02:17, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

I've been hoping this was the case. interestingly, if the article is accurate, it says this change has been around since last July, which was when the game cancelling rumor came about. if it was indeed decided around then that the game changed its title, then there might have been some validity in "vs13" being no more lol.. anyway in the website they do say in brackets that its the expected title.. not an official one.--Arciel Spira (talk) 03:43, March 16, 2013 (UTC)

Yeah, dumb. They darn changed it to Versus XIII now. JBed (talk) 19:46, March 17, 2013 (UTC)

Haha nice. :D Square wouldn't want them to be the ones to "announce" it though even if they did rebrand the game...Keltainentoukokuu (talk) 20:53, March 17, 2013 (UTC)

Final Fantasy Agito announced and we still haven't even got Type-0?

A mobile prequel to Type-0 and we still haven't even got the game outside of Japan, Squeenix, you're killing me, also touchscreen controls suck :( Wyvern777 (talk) 23:46, September 15, 2013 (UTC)

September 26 article

Do we have a source for it? Tia-Lew ise 08:00, September 30, 2013 (UTC)

Not sure if it's good enough for news

Square are releasing some more figurines, I don't know if you want to report it or just put the pictures on the relevant articles, but you can find it, and a link to Square's official store, here Tia-Lew ise 14:14, February 3, 2014 (UTC)

FFXV Voice Acting


		Kaimi - "You know what? It's embarrassing to say this myself...But summoners and their guardians are kind of like Spira's ray of light. A lot of people in Spira depend on us. I learned to practice smiling when I'm sad, you know? I know it's hard." TALK - 21:52, February 27, 2014 (UTC)



		In a later update, Yang stated that voice acting for the final game had yet to begin in all languages. Does that mean that there'll be more language voice acting diversity aside of the usual Japanese and English VA? It's written a bit ambiguous if you ask me. Is there an article you think is of an exceptional quality? Vote for it here!

Re: Proxy Vandal

Doesn't the recent shenanigans involving this page warrant anon-protection of some sort? Lord G. matters. Talk to me. 01:38, March 20, 2014 (UTC)

Facebook Icon

Can I suggest making a square icon for the Shinra News for Facebook? The wide rectangle logo doesn't look appealing when squished. If no one is up to it, I could do it: just tell me the font name for "Final Fantasy Wiki" and "- Shinra News -".—Kaimi (999,999 CP/5 TP) ∙ 19:15, June 17, 2014 (UTC)

Name

So I was working on FFVII related things when I just noticed the text "Shinra Times".

"Shinra Times" is a newspaper in FFVII. Mentioned once in the game when talking about headlines about the bombing. I just thought I'd mention it because I remember past discussions about how "Shinra News" isn't a newspaper and is bland. Not that I agreed we should name it after a newspaper. "Bonga Bugle" and "Timber Maniacs" were my preferred choices.

I like the sound of Timber Maniacs. Shinra News always sounded dull. C A T U S E 03:55, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

I like Timber Maniacs too. Monterossa (talk) 05:05, August 16, 2014 (UTC)

Nothing is wrong with Shinra News. It is in universe and explains itself simply and easily, and is probably the project page that requires a name doing so the most since it'll be frequented by non regulars more. Besides, screw FFVIII, Shinra are tons cooler than Timber Maniacs.--
