Name of Strips
[edit]I think we need the names no. and links to the number of comics Scott has made.24.80.36.89 (talk) 15:06, 22 March 2009 (UTC) --—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.80.36.89 (talk) 05:03, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
VG Kitties
[edit]I can't even find any of the VG Kitties comics still hosted on the site. I'm removing the section. In the event they are still hosted, I don't think it deserves a section in the article, because from what I remember it was only a few comics long. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.186.182.39 (talk) 04:47, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
- Addendum: The comics are still hosted on the site, but they're not linked anywhere in the archives nor do they exist in the "Misc Comics" section. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.186.182.39 (talk) 04:53, 29 March 2008 (UTC)
- Once something is notable, 76.186, it is always notable. WhisperToMe (talk) 11:29, 29 April 2009 (UTC)
Dead?
[edit]Has VG Cats died? The link doesnt work, as if they sold their domain name, and theres no other way to get to them, dead?
Yeah, link won't work for me either. They must have sold the domain or something...
What the heck happened? I think someone may have hacked it, cause I tried registering on their forums, and it said registration was disabled. I hope nothing gets deleted or anything.68.76.157.233 17:00, 21 December 2006 (UTC)PMXe54
- Oh, it's back!
- Actually, it's back to being the stupid domain name page.
Hmm, VG Cats seems to work for me..... Mack-the-random (talk) 18:53, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

The prototype infobox I put together features VG Cats. What do you think? CyberSkull 08:33, 2005 Jun 18 (UTC)
- I like the info box.--ZeWrestler 12:38, 12 July 2005 (UTC)
Jack Thompson
[edit]I believe someone should add something on the argument between VGCats and Jack Thompson.
- Nah. Else we'd have to put up something every time PA or anybody else got legal threats (which is, what, weekly?). Nifboy 00:36, 9 August 2005 (UTC)
- Might be worth mentioning simply for humor value; that, and it might end up as a long-term joke in the community, given that so far two of the big four PA-like comics have already mentioned it.
- Already mentioned in the Jack Thompson article. -Drmike 22:18, 10 August 2005 (UTC)
- It should not be mentioned in VG Cats, but rather in Scott Ramsoomair's article. ~ Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 09:05, 2005 August 11 (UTC)
Pictures
[edit]Is it me..
Or should we try and add some more pictures into this page.
I mean a picture of the main characters would be nice to show. -MGL
nah, good enough as it is. I mean, they only appear in the webcomics, and putting an entire comic into the article? There are avatars, but those wouldn't "fit in". I don't know, maybe someone will do it. EAB 11:09, 1 May 2006 (UTC)
Fan Pics
[edit]Should not be included, especially if graphic like that.
For comparison, go to other articles with large fanart sections or even to the page on hentai.
About that "citation needed" template...
[edit]Concerning the sentence, "The majority of this fan art can be found at a forum which has gained recognition for its collection." in the "Fan art" section, the {{fact}} template was added not to dispute the existence of the forum, but the claim it has gained recognition. Do not remove the {{fact}} unless you can provide a source backing up the claim. Please be aware that unless they are very high profile, forum posts and blogs do not meet Wikipedia's standards as sources. –Abe Dashiell (t/c) 15:37, 10 May 2006 (UTC) --72.181.181.118 (talk) 01:37, 20 March 2011 (UTC)leo or die lolz
Cleanup
[edit]I trimmed down the 'Characters' section, and removed the 'Fan Art' section. - Kalarchis 01:18, 19 May 2006 (UTC)
- The 'Characters' section was just overflowing with fancruft and speculation, so I trimmed it down again. Also, I removed the section on Major Payne, as I don't think he's important enough to warrant a note. - Kalarchis 06:38, 22 July 2006 (UTC)
- Fixed a couple of bits of speculation in the 'Characters' section, Leo and Aeris are named after Scott's cats, as I believe he has said on numerous occasions, and is also stated on the site. Also removed the sentence pertaining to doctor hobo making a reappearance in a heaven-like place, as that was a guest strip and not canon. Oh, and Aeris doesn't live with Leo, as mentioned in 'Start the Reactor'. - ExterminatusNine 15:43, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
- I was going to make the 'living together' edit he mentioned above but he beat me to it when I mentioned it to him. I snipped out the first of two mentions that each of Leo and Aeris' bios that they were named after the author's cats. - Raven The Hedgena 12:24, 17 August 2006 (UTC)

Picture licensing
[edit]You guys have some problems with your pictures. First, the one of Link in the infobox is liable to be deleted anytime, as it's "with-permission", a long-since deprecated license. The other pictures don't suffer from that problem, but between you and me, I'd imagine that most people would be deeply skeptical of screenshots from popular webcomics which purport to be public-domain/all-rights-released with no shred of evidence to support that. --maru (talk) contribs 22:55, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
- The infobox picture is grandfathered, but, yeah, the license on the other images looks bogus to me. –Abe Dashiell (t/c) 23:12, 13 June 2006 (UTC)
- The main picture used was uploaded before the policy change went into effect and according to the template is exempt from the deletion, at least that is how I read it. Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 17:42, 17 August 2006 (UTC)
STOP DELETING THIS THEORY DAMMIT
[edit]People keep erasing the "there is evidence that aeris may have had a crush on leo in high school". And there IS EVIDENCE TO SUPPORT THE THEORY. IT'S A THEORY THAT MANY SEE AS TRUE, AND BECAUSE YOU SEE IT AS FALSE DOESN'T MEAN IT DIDN'T HAPPEN! IT COULD HAVE! LEAVE IT ALONE NOW! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.83.199.177 (talk • contribs) 11:36, September 4, 2006
- How about no? Raven The Hedgena 3:32 PM, September 05 2006 (UTC)
- look, I'm sorry, I'm a little annoyed. theories are accepted on wikipedia. some theories have their own article. for example, look at the THEORY of evolution. anyway, sorry about my screaming earlier, but I'm mad. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.33.176.24 (talk • contribs) 15:14, September 5, 2006
- Theories are accepted if they are published in reliable sources. I don't recall anyone worthwhile writing about the possibility of romance in VG Cats. Nifboy 00:23, 6 September 2006 (UTC)

- Your use of capital letters has convinced me of your point. What an excellent strategy for online discussions/debates! I'm astonished that more people don't do that......
- And even if she did have a crush on him in high school, so what? Those feelings are obviously dead now, and that last thing that anyone wants is for a LeoXAeris relationship to start. Plus, the strip isn't canonical in the least bit, so trying to establish a relationship from one comic to the next is fairly pointless. RPH 01:13, 6 September 2006 (UTC)
- If Ramsoomair says anything about it (forum, interview, drunken ramblings) I'll accept it (and probably add it myself). A crush is only one way of interpreting her blushing at the end of the strip. Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 01:02, 7 September 2006 (UTC)
- I agree, tis only one one of the waus to interpret it, but it is still a theory. Maybe we could compromise and put it with "however, that is only onoe way to interpert it."
Deal?-lopolo42
"the last thing that anyone wants is for a LeoXAeris relationship to start."
Speak for yourself. There are a surprising amount of people out there who want it to happen. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.48.218.197 (talk • contribs) 18:28, October 3, 2006
the theory is (sort of) supported from this strip. the blushing can mean she likes him but again it's all ambiguous. (tyger 20:19, 5 November 2006 (UTC))
- Not to mention that it was a one-off strip in a comic that has very little continuity.--Agent Aquamarine 02:31, 30 November 2006 (UTC)
- Theories are accepted if they are published in reliable sources. I don't recall anyone worthwhile writing about the possibility of romance in VG Cats. Nifboy
- Um...yeah. his name is Sinder and he's pretty community-famous with his erotic story, World 1-1 of Aeris and Leo. Just a note, doesn't affect the argument either way. ~ PHDrillSergeant...§ 07:58, 11 January 2007 (UTC)
- Unless Sinder writes an article for the New York Times or the USA Today discussing it, then no. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:20, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
It was restored again. I changed it to "appears to have a small crush on Leo since school". Seriously, I read teh strip and I can only interpret the blushing as the start of a crush. I mean, what other reason could there be for her to blush on those pannels? Anyone can expplain an alternative reason that make sense? --Enric Naval (talk) 07:14, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
- Original research. Removed. JuJube (talk) 08:15, 12 July 2008 (UTC)
- 1 thing, if Aeris doesnt like Leo to the point of abortion from time, why after, she is still Leo's friend
I do not want a LeoxAeris Relationship, im being objective --Rocket50 (talk) 15:16, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
Art Style section needs rewrite
[edit]Or possibly delete. It's POV, inappropriately toned and steaming with fan theories and unverifiable information. ~ Oni Lukos ct 23:25, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
- I think it just needs a rewrite, I don't want it deleted, he has a nice art style.--Signor 16:58, 15 October 2006 (UTC)
G'day, I just tried to clean the Art Style section up as best I could. It's not very good, but I hope it helps. :) Martin Kingsley 14:18, 22 October 2006 (UTC)
200th Comic
[edit]Just a spot but ive noticed that Scott has seemingly skipped the 200th comic. Should this fact be put down or should it be put down as an in-joke?
- He's still working on it. I can't verify this, but I d believe he has said it at one point in time. Raven The Hedgena 11:30, 10 October 2006
- It's been many months since the last mention, I do believe. But he didn't skip it as a joke, more as a thing he was going to put more work into and...didn't. ~ Oni Lukos ct 23:28, 10 October 2006 (UTC)
- It says "TBA 2009" in the archive.
Update art
[edit]A lot of the pics on this site use Scott's original art style and look nothing like his newer works. Any chance that thepage could be updated with more recent shots? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 65.93.174.57 (talk • contribs) 21:22, October 22, 2006
- I don't see why not. I thought it looked dated myself considering the more recent strips look so drastically different from the beginnings. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 132.170.162.229 (talk • contribs) 10:45, October 27, 2006
- I don't think we really need to replace the graphics we have, given that all Ramsoomair has really done is refine his technique as opposed to his style. Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 10:54, 28 October 2006 (UTC)
I went and updated Leo and Aeris because their pictures were so old as to be barely recognizable. The others have not changed significantly enough to need an update.Rebochan 01:56, 14 November 2006 (UTC)
Page Parked
[edit]The VGCats homepage is currently parked and/or snapped up by ad people. Maybe we should add this? Is the comic now defunct? 143.195.110.25 15:58, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
- It looks like the domain was hijacked by the registrar, perhaps because it expired and Scott didn't renew it. 71.39.6.137 17:14, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
- I had a domain I oversee parked like this once by a registrar whose wonderful customer service kept throwing roadblocks in my way to impede me from switching service to a better registrar. I hope that Scott isn't having to deal with an unscrupulous registrar like I had to (it's not the same one, but the parking page looks very familiar...). I'd say a quick note about a registrar-placed parking page should be enough. It looks like that, by the whois info, that he still has the domain, but I also see it is listed as having an "Expiration date: 20 Dec 2006 20:13:3" --Reverend Loki 18:08, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
Looks like it's all moot... the comic page is back, WHOIS shows expiry of 20 Dec 2007 now. --Reverend Loki 20:09, 21 December 2006 (UTC)
- When I whois'd the domain it showed the 2007 expiry, but it was still parked and showing advertisements and such. Maybe they were just taking their merry sweet time giving it back to him. It does indeed appear back now, though. Whew! 71.39.6.137 04:15, 22 December 2006 (UTC)
- I see nothing in Firefox at all. BUT, it could be that the DNS server didn't update here yet. Ampersand2006 ( & ) 13:35, 23 December 2006 (UTC)
Major Payne
[edit]How come you haven't put in major payne? Trunksamurai 00:35, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
He's not a main character is he?--HoneymaneHeghlu meH QaQ jajvam 01:30, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
No, none of them are "main" characters. They're just characters Trunksamurai 22:18, 3 January 2007 (UTC)
- Major Payne has been in the comic roughly three times, while the ones listed here reoccur more regularly. He used to be on the page, but was removed by User:Kalarchis back in July, probably because of this fact and/or because there is no picture for the character. -- Sarrandúin [ Talk Contribs ] 21:59, 5 January 2007 (UTC)
There's a picture right here http://www.vgcats.com/new/cast.gif Trunksamurai 16:11, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
Criticism section?
[edit]Since there is a decent amount of criticism over, for instance, the unnecessary (IMO) number of panels and referencing outdated games, I was curious if anyone was interested in developing such a section. - A Link to the Past (talk) 01:49, 11 February 2007 (UTC)
- I haven't heard such criticism. Would this be from people on the forums or would this be in the main gaming press? Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 01:51, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- Well, it'd be pretty strange for main gaming press to comment on it. It is on forums, and there's been a tradition of modifying the comics to "see if they can make it funny" or if they can shorten it. But I wouldn't be surprised if there were smaller gaming media web sites commenting on it or other web comics. - A Link to the Past (talk) 03:06, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- And no, I am not suggesting we make a section right away - I want to find good sources to create such an article. Forum hatred just legitimizes researching more reliable hatred. - A Link to the Past (talk) 04:46, 13 February 2007 (UTC)
- The gaming press has commented on the strip, but none of them has run a critique (or even a review as far as I know). They will most likely do so when the book comes out. Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 01:22, 15 February 2007 (UTC)
Theres no signifigant critisism outside forums and chat circles, most of them by fanboys of other comics, or trolls. vgcatssucks182 isnt exactly a good source, now is he? I dont see any problem with there being to many panels or referencing old games.~sdhonda
- A web comic should be topical. For instance, there was a comic of EBA several months after its release - VG Cats, from my experience, rarely releases a comic about a game around its release. Also, I do not see why you would not have a problem with "too" many panels - "too" many panels means that it's not good. If it was good, it'd be "the just right amount of" panels. - A Link to the Past (talk) 04:53, 10 June 2007 (UTC)
- According to whom? Wikipedia is not interested in stating whether or not things suck. If you have a notable critical response to it, add it to the article. 24.16.95.168 (talk) 23:02, 7 March 2010 (UTC)
Scott probably can't get his hands on the new games as soon as the mags. That'd explain everything.
- Here's[1] some criticism of VGCats. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.238.161.86 (talk) 03:05, 23 November 2007 (UTC)
Potatamoto?
[edit]Should Potatamoto (joke on Miyamoto) be in the minor characters section? He's been in a good 3-4 comics right? He's been in the comic as much as Payne has, and he's in the minor characters section. 82.198.28.230 11:07, 11 April 2007 (UTC)Some Noob
Sadist
[edit]Should the "sadist" link in Aeris's bio link to the S&M page? Surely that should link to Sadistic personality disorder instead. --71.88.48.116 15:05, 17 April 2007 (UTC)
Ya that's a better idea. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 66.245.80.71 (talk)
Citation needed!
[edit]I need a citation as to whether Aeris is a love interest for Leo. Thanks. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Gp75motorsports (talk • contribs)
- No. - ∅ (∅), 17:27, 1 August 2007 (UTC)
Whew. Thanks. I put that up there seeing as Aeris and Leo almost always appear together.
Fair use rationale for Image:Leo vgcats.jpg
[edit]Image:Leo vgcats.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

furry?
[edit]Why is this under furry? The artist has expressed on numerous occassions that when he created the comic, he didn't know what furries were and that now he hates furs. So, unless there's something in here about his dislike of the furry community trying to coopt his comic, I think it should be dropped altogether 209.136.161.135 (talk) 22:14, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
- I agree why is this in wikiproject furry? It doesn't belong there. --67.160.118.193 (talk) 19:29, 4 April 2008 (UTC)
- Thirded, I've never been insulted by Wikipedia before, and now it just goes ahead and slaps me with that slur? Your words cut me, Wikigods. 70.71.69.224 (talk) 06:55, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- Citation for the author's comment about his comic being regarded as furry: http://www.vgcats.com/faq/index.php#furry Zell65 (talk) 07:22, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- You asked for it. No longer a part of WP:FURRY. You know we love you anyway, right? GreenReaper (talk) 02:33, 6 July 2008 (UTC)
"Trim the fancruft"
[edit]So the article says "Trim the fancruft" - Any hints on what that would be? WhisperToMe (talk) 16:17, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
That would be your typical Wikipedian elitism. They basically mean that since they don't care about the fans of the comic, no one else should have any indication about its fanbase. 70.71.69.224 (talk) 06:54, 14 June 2008 (UTC)
- Wikipedia isn't supposed to be a fansite, though. It is supposed to focus less on plot and more on creation/conception and receptiopn. Plot sections are okay, but they should not be overly detailed. WhisperToMe (talk) 23:21, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
Merchandising section
[edit][2] How are primary sources not acceptable for this? I'm not saying secondary sources shouldn't be found - but there are times when it is okay to use primary sources. What does it mean to not need a merchandising section when The Simpsons et al can have merchandising documented? I don't see a problem with explaining the history of VGCats merchandise and how the suppliers changed. Also labeling the links as "spam" is too much - those links are meant to be sources and evidence. WhisperToMe (talk) 18:53, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- (1) Merchandising is completely unnecessary, it's not of any importance, merchandising is a normal and expected part of anything in popular culture. (2) Drawing a section entirely from primary sources is original research, if it's not discussed in reliable secondary sources then it's obviously not that important. (3) The links to the merchandising sites are spam. Apart form that, and the fact that it's trivial, no other problems that spring immediately to mind. Guy (Help!) 20:59, 24 April 2008 (UTC)
- According to the Wikipedia:No original research#Primary.2C_secondary.2C_and_tertiary_sources policy it is acceptable to use primary resources IF:
- "only make descriptive claims about the information found in the primary source, the accuracy and applicability of which is easily verifiable by any reasonable, educated person without specialist knowledge, and"
- "make no analytic, synthetic, interpretive, explanatory, or evaluative claims about the information found in the primary source."
- If you have only primary resources and both of these conditions are met, it is not original research.
- Whether something is "Spam" or not "Spam" has to do with intentions. Wikipedia:Spam generally describes spam as a method of trying to promote a product.
- Regarding merchandise, it is true that many fictional series have merchandising. Since I was using the links as a source, wouldn't this apply:
- "If you have a source to contribute, first contribute some facts that you learned from that source, then cite the source. Don't simply direct readers to another site for the useful facts; add useful facts to the article, then cite the site where you found them. You're here to improve Wikipedia—not just to funnel readers off Wikipedia and onto some other site, right? (If not, see #1 above.)"
- WhisperToMe (talk) 21:14, 24 April 2008 (UTC)

Images
[edit]Someone has suggested that too many non-free images are used in the article. I agree. Should we trim the major characters to Leo, Aeris, Krug and Pantsman? Sillyfolkboy (talk) 09:31, 13 July 2008 (UTC)
- I saw someone trying to use an external image that shows several cast members. I have uploaded it on Image:VG_cats_cast.gif and added it. Shall we leave this image and remove the smaller ones? --Enric Naval (talk) 01:30, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- Funny how it works better that way! But i agree: remove the excessive non-free images and reorganise the info to follow the character order in the picture. Sillyfolkboy (talk) 02:39, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- I'm gonna wait a pair of days in case someone find an alternative solution, and then I'll remove all the character images except the cast image. (actually, I was about to make a collage of images like that cast image, and like the image on the infobox on French people) --Enric Naval (talk) 03:34, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

- Please do not do that. A montage you create yourself out of 'n' images will be considered equal to 'n' non-free image uses and will be against non-free content criteria. I'm not sure if the one taken from the VGCats site is the best image, but as Scott R. put it there himself, then it is only one non-free image. The one on French People is created from free images, so the resulting image is free, but that can't happen here. --MASEM 03:50, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- Oh, ok, I hadn't thought of the copyright problems. --Enric Naval (talk) 04:26, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Characters section
[edit]I noticed that Image:VG_cats_cast.gif is completely surrounded by Aeris' section. Could someone move it slightly so it isn't like that? Also, I think Leo's section needs to be expanded. It's really small compared to Aeris'. Hawkfrost18 (talk) —Preceding comment was added at 22:03, 17 July 2008 (UTC)
Sources needed?
[edit]Joystiq has a whole lot of articles that mention VG Cats. On a first glance through most look to be fairly short, but somebody else might be able to find something of more substance in there.
Oh, and here's an interview with Scott from CBSNews.com. 76.105.246.26 (talk) 09:43, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- I found some stuff from Kotaku, too. 76.105.246.26 (talk) 20:54, 29 August 2008 (UTC)
- Someone add them for crying out loud. This article has 400,000 primary sources and only 3 secondary ones. Ten Pound Hammer and his otters • (Broken clamshells • Otter chirps • HELP) 23:47, 16 September 2008 (UTC)
- I went throught them and added a few things[3]. --Enric Naval (talk) 02:08, 18 September 2008 (UTC)

updating the last update
[edit]Do we really need on the article "the strip hasn't been updated since November 15"[4] and "the strip hasn't been on a month now"[5]? (btw, the correct link was WP:NOT#NEWS)
See the proposed guideline Wikipedia:Recentism. We should focus on the "timeless facets" of the strip, like how often he delays and how much, or times when he failed to update for relevant reasons (like serious illness or legal problems related to the strip itself). We should not focus on trivial things like how long it has taken since the last strip because he's late as usual. --Enric Naval (talk) 18:33, 15 December 2008 (UTC)

[edit]"As of 2008, the first half of one episode, "Episode 1: A Tale of Two Kitties", has been produced. The first episode was released on January 21, 2006"86.46.196.195 (talk) 22:27, 3 January 2009 (UTC)

Aegis??? WTF
[edit]Aegis likes yoai? please re-evaluate this statement.... Are you sure that the last screen with Aegis sleeping is revelent to the yoai Strip????—Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.80.36.89 (talk) 02:53, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- She's obviously enjoying that yaoi dream. Can someone find the strip where Aeris writes a yaoi history? --Enric Naval (talk) 06:09, 20 March 2009 (UTC)
- http://www.vgcats.com/comics/?strip_id=126
- Yep i got it! Strange, first time a cat that writes yaoi I have ever seen —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.80.36.89 (talk) 05:07, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
- Added. --Enric Naval (talk) 07:41, 22 March 2009 (UTC)
Trimming the list of Characters
[edit]Perhaps it's about time to take down alot of the minor characters and some of the "major" ones. Scotts Avatar, and, of course, the cats should be the only characters worth mentioning in the article.
Try and look at this from the point of view of someone casually reading this article - do they want to know about every character that has appeared briefly in 3/4 strips?
Super effective?
[edit]Should we give it a section or an article or does it not derseve one? RTY1998 (talk) 18:26, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- Not notable. Rarely, if ever, updated. Gpia7r (talk) 20:08, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- Super Effective should redirect to VG Cats. WhisperToMe (talk) 20:28, 8 November 2009 (UTC)
- Then should we write a tiny bit about it at the bottom of this page or just leave it? It was updated today.RTY1998 (talk) 12:40, 9 November 2009 (UTC)
