{{FinalRest|time=04:39, 6 March 2013 (UTC)|normal=Thanks for getting started on this MEX! Just adding onto Caf's list and what sections need to be on each page:
*'''Page 1:''' Cover
*'''Page 2:''' Contents. Could you add in a box somewhere for an editor's letter? The name for the letter is The Secret Report. The black/white scheme is fine.
*'''Page 3:''' Trinity Archives. We need boxes for each piece of news. I was thinking maybe something like image on the left, then the info in a box to the right. Then for the next bit of news, the info box is on the left and the image is on the right. Then it alternates like that. Sorry if that's hard to understand, cause I'm terrible at explaining things. ^^ For color scheme, what about the traditional KH blue/silver from the KH and KHII logos? 
*'''Page 4:''' Unlocking the Keyhole (going off of Erry's name idea). The sections we have are: Updates for the deletion, move and protection logs, info on the current battles going on in user arenas, introductions of new users and another section for updates from our Jiminy's Journal. For colors, how about going off the yellow in our logo?
*'''Page 5:''' Kingdom Hearts' Renewal. Sections are left up to you guys, of course. Same goes for colors, but what about the pink/white/black currently used in your theme?
*'''Page 6:''' Special Editor Page. The subject of this page changes, so the design is left to the current author. All you really need to do now is add the tab for it. :)
*'''Page 7:''' Dive to the Heart (aka the Tutorials page). We need one part for the wiki based tutorial and another for the game tutorial. I'm not sure about colors.
*'''Page 8:''' Featured Article. Same as the Special Editor page, you don't need to do anything for this either.
*'''Page 9:''' Round Room (Staff roundtable). For this one we'd need speech bubbles for each individual participant in the conversation, cause I think just copy/pasting the talk bubbles could space out the page a bit much. So maybe plain bubbles with staff avatars? Again, I'm not sure for colors.
*'''Page 10:''' Room of Rewards. We need boxes to talk about the Featured Articles and Media, images of each included. For colors, how about basing it off the colors of Treasure Chests?
*'''Page 11:''' User Page (this doesn't have a name yet). So far we need sections for a user interview, a top 5 list and a review.
*'''Page 12:''' The Game Grid. Currently includes a puzzle (possibly naming this section the Chasm of Challenges), a KH character skit and a mini arena. For colors, how about the greyish blue from the in game Game Grid?
*'''Page 13:''' The Interactive Page (also doesn't have a name). Needs a section for the chief editor hosted mailbag. Also needs another section for the to do lists, which include 5 tasks to complete from .net, 5 more for the Keyhole and 5 challenges for the KH games, so it needs to be separated into 3 sections somehow.
And that's all there is! I think each page should have its own color scheme, so they all differentiate. There also needs to be a place to put the written by box (take a look at the Fairy Tail wiki magazine to see what I mean). Also, would you mind if I were to stop by every now and again and help you out with putting this together?}}

:Of course you can help, Final Rest. I would be grateful. Today I have some homework to do, so I will not be able to help very much. But if you want, you can change the template, anything. -  {{User:MateusinhoEX/SigTemplate}} 14:21, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

== Contents ==

I was taking a look at the contents page and I think it might be too cramped to put both the Secret Report and the Contents on the same page. The contents should be the main focus, so it should go up the top, but in that case I don't want the Secret Report to just be shoved to the bottom of the page. So, I was wondering if you think we should tab the contents page so it'd look something like [http://i1272.photobucket.com/albums/y390/Snozcumsmees/Untitled-1copy_zps189cfc58.png this]. Do you think that makes the page tidier or do you think it should be left as it looks now? {{User:FinalRest/Sig}} 09:57, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

{{FinalRest|time=14:17, 16 March 2013 (UTC)|normal5=Hello again. :) So, I spaced out the contents and I think it's a lot less cramped now, but it also leaves a big gap to the right of the box. I was thinking of ways to fill it, and I was thinking maybe we could put a sort of collage thing there to fill in the gap. [http://i1272.photobucket.com/albums/y390/Snozcumsmees/3_zps4663e84b.png Something like this, perhaps?] However, I'm kind of iffy on the way that looks, so I was wondering what you guys thought. Obviously pay no attention to the images themselves cause I just added the first screenshots I could find. ^_^ I also noticed that page 11 and 12 were left out of the tabs and contents and I was wondering if there was a reason for that, or if it was just a mistake...}}
:Looks good, but how would we pick which images to put? {{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 14:30, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

::Hey guys!! I am a little busy these days. Well, lets explain somethings:
# About the Secret Report. Do you wish to leave it as it is, or change it's look, with it's new colors to make it look like the other pages, or change all other pages to look like it? Or just leave it different, like a special page?
# About the missing pages. I just didn't had time to add them yet, no special reasons XD.
# And last, about gaps, not just in contents, but in any pages it may happen. I can't help with this, because I use a resolution in which... well... there aren't any gaps!! So, you solve it as you wish. I can only say that the images looks veeeery good. I loved them. We could use images related to the respective Trinity Archives and Dive to the Heart of the issue. For example, images of KHHD ReMIX, χ[chi], and some of the game in the walkthrough of that issue.
{{User:MateusinhoEX/SigTemplate}} - 16:02, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

For the secret report, I just tried to make it look as similar to the real Secret Report in the game as I could. I would've been able to do more with html, but, well, wikia *shakes fist angrily*. I think it's fine to have the pages a little different, especially since pages like the Featured Editor page will be changed according to the author for that issue, so the variety will be a good change. As for the contents, since you guys like it, I'll add in a code later for the image. For the pictures, you hit the nail on the head, MEX. I too was thinking we just customize them according to the content of that issue, so I guess we'll just do that. :) {{User:FinalRest/Sig}} 13:41, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

:Fine. Then these points are solved. I will just add the missing pages. I also don't know how to do with the Roundtable page. Could you help me? {{User:MateusinhoEX/SigTemplate}} - 16:17, 17 March 2013 (UTC)

::Sorry for taking a while to get back to this. ^^ I'll take a look at the roundtable and see what I can do! {{User:FinalRest/Sig}} 07:32, 27 March 2013 (UTC)

== Test ==

Well, I decided to test some sections of the Magazine to see if they are working properly.

|news1title=Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX Released in Japan!!
|news1=Two weeks ago, in March 14<sup>th</sup>, a HD compilation of the first three games of the series was released. Yeah, guys, the long wait for ''Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX'' has ended, at least for who leave in Japan. We still will have to wait a little more to have this game in our hands, because the NA release is estimated to only Fall 2013. Although, our friend here Erry has imported a Japanese copy of the game and is doing a Livestream. You can check the link to it in our main page. Please take a look!!

[[File:Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX Logo KHHD.png|center|250px]]

This compilation brings a lot of new features, aside of just remastering the games in HD. It is composed by ''Kingdom Hearts: Final MIX'', which is being released outside Japan for the first time, ''Kingdom Hearts Re:Chain of Memories'', with some new cards, and a Theater Mode of ''Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days'', all made in HD. It's also the first time a ''Kingdom hearts '' game is released for a new generation console, in this case, the Playstation 3. The game also has support to the PS3 Trophy feature, including two Platinum Trophies, one for KHFM and one for Re:CoM. There also much more features that you guys will enjoy very much, I'm sure of it!!
|news2title=ParaDOX, ReMIX, TraiLER
|news2=As previously mentioned, the ''Kingdom Hearts'' series made a large appearance at the D23 Expo in Japan this week, and it seems that the announcements that the fans were disappointed weren't included at the Tokyo Game Show were in fact being saved for this event!

The first piece of news came with the confirmation that '''''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 2.5 ReMIX]]'' will be released in 2014'''! The game will be another PS3 exclusive release and will include a compilation of ''[[Kingdom Hearts II Final Mix]]'' and ''[[Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep Final Mix]]'', while ''[[Kingdom Hearts Re:coded]]'' will be represented by cinematic videos, much like ''[[Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days]]'' was in ''[[Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 ReMIX]]''. A special trailer for the game was shown at the convention, which can be viewed below.

To celebrate the announcement the official website for the game was opened, and you can check it out <span class=plainlinks>[http://www.square-enix.co.jp/kingdom/khhd2/ here]</span>. If you can't wait to get your hands on the game, you better make sure to preorder your copy!

As if that news isn't exciting enough, the ''Kingdom Hearts'' teams wasn't finished there! Later on at the Expo '''a brand new trailer for ''[[Kingdom Hearts III]]'' was revealed'''! The one and a half minute long video shows our familiar friend [[Sora]] fighting against some [[Heartless]] while also receiving support from old pals [[Donald]] and [[Goofy]]. Some new areas are also revealed as Sora battles on a "Pirate Ship", and then against the [[Rock Titan]] while riding the train on the "Big Magic Mountain". But why should you listen to my account of the trailer?

*The delete button has been hard at work, having eliminated a healthy number of recently uploaded .jpg images. Please remember that no matter their content, .jpg images are not allowed to be uploaded on the Keyhole, and they will be deleted! As outlined on our uploads page, '''"All files should have the *.PNG extension, unless they are animated (these should be given *.APNG or *.GIF extensions) or music files (these should be given .ogg)."'''

*A discussion from our [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:March_2014_Tea_Party#Origin_Images March Tea Party] also led to the deletion of multiple character images. Because we no longer have origin sections for most characters, we no longer have a use for images that illustrate what any characters looked like in non-KH related media. '''Please keep this in mind when uploading character images in the future.'''

*The [http://kingdomhearts.wikia.com/wiki/Template:Welcomeip Welcomeip] template is back! In mid 2013 wikia announced it would be disallowing anons to edit on wikis with children related content. Because ''Kingdom Hearts'' is a PG series, this meant that anons were no longer able to contribute to the Keyhole. The Welcomeip template was deleted, seeing as we didn't have a need to welcome anonymous users anymore. But, after recently discovering the amount of red links the template left behind, Welcomeip was resurrected! '''We would like our users to note that this restoration was purely in the name of red link prevention, and the Welcomeip template is still a retired template which should not be used.'''

Seems like it's coming along nicely. One thing though - is there any chance of changing the color scheme of the Contents page? Personally, it looks a bit dull and awkward. I think different fonts will look ''very'' good and perhaps a dark grey or silver will work better. Just a suggestion. {{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 19:41, 28 March 2013 (UTC)
:This is a cool way to see how it all comes together. ^^ I'm all for changing the Contents colors, but I don't have any ideas, so go ahead and do what you think'll look nice. :) Oh, and I also filled in some of the other spaces, to see how they look. {{User:FinalRest/Sig}} 09:50, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Would you mind if I moved the author bit to under the title? I think it would look nicer that way... Also, do we have anyone to work on the page title images? Cause if we don't I could have a crack at them. :) {{User:FinalRest/Sig2}} 03:38, 7 April 2013 (UTC)
:Erry said he would like to make images, but I don't think he would be upset if you give it a try. About the titles, I will change them for you, don't worry. If you want, you can make any changes to the magazine, okay? {{User:MateusinhoEX/SigTemplate}} 16:48, 8 April 2013 (UTC)

== Reboot! ==

Heya MEX, it's been a while! Since this is getting a fresh start, I'd once again like to offer my help. Is there anything you need help with regarding the template? {{User:FinalRest/Sig}} 14:54, 17 April 2014 (UTC)
:Hey, FR, just in time!! Im really needing help with this, since I don't have much freetime now. Basically, I need you to help me style the remaining pages, like, color of them and things like. If you want to put some fancier styles, such as shadows in the boxes and things like that we can think about it. Also, if you can help me check the variables of each article (I mean, the blank spaces, such as <nowiki>{{{autorname}}} and {{{topfive}}}, for example</nowiki. And I think it's just that for now. I will make some edits now and get things going. Thanks for the help! - ~~~~

</nowiki>
Hey MEX, I also signed up to help with the coding. Is there anything you need me to do? {{KeybladeSpyMaster/Sig}}04:27, 18 April 2014 (UTC)
: Lucky there's plenty help :) Basically, I need you to do the same things as FR. I managed to make a good draft now, so yeah, there's just more adjusts to do. Thanks!! - {{User:MateusinhoEX/SigTemplate}} 13:48, 18 April 2014 (UTC)

{{TheFifteenthMember|time={{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 23:12, 25 April 2014 (UTC)|default=After a lot of procrastination, I've finally made the time to write my suggestions (most of which are just nitpicking)!:
*'''Contents''': Before the <nowiki>{{{specialeditordesc}}}</nowiki> parameter, we should have a fixed sentence that explains that the Keyblade Master page changes completely from issue to issue. Also, the "In the newest podcast" bit could probably be scrapped seeing as it'd go on the Round Room page and like the Keyblade Master, we could have a fixed sentence before the "staffroundtabledesc" that explains what the podcast is.
*'''The Door to Light''': I can't speak for the Keyhole here, but I think the log updates and new users parts should be scrapped because they'd be too long, detailing every page that was deleted in the last three-months. The summary style of the Trinity Archives could be replicated here. The command board can stay so that we can talk about any projects we have.
*'''The Coliseum''': Aside from links to the MA and Underdrome somewhere, the page should be modelled to suit the new "debate" idea we got. Essentially, they can look exactly like a standard MA arena with two columns for each contestant and the opinion parts going beneath the pictures (where the votes usually are). 
*'''Dive to the Heart''': Needs the "Game Tutorial" section that used to be there.
*'''Round Room''': This only needs a designated place for the .ogg file to go and the "In our newest podcast" section that's currently in the contents page.
*'''Mark of Mastery Exam''': The top 5 list and review could go side by side in two columns but that's only if we can manage to make them equal length (but we can balance them out with pictures anyway) and then the user interview below. The speech mark idea from the round room can be reworked there somehow maybe? (P.S. The currently title for that page is "Keyblade Master" so that needs updating).
*'''Namine's Sketchbook''': A little piece of text needs to be added to the top to explain how to make image requests.
*'''Game Grid''': This can be sorted into two columns. The first column will have the "Guess that Beast" instructions and image while the second column will have the two text-based riddles ("Who am I?" and the other riddle). Also, again, a piece of text needs to be added to the top to explain how the mini-competition works.
*'''Flick Rush''': The tasks can be split into three columns, the left has the KHWiki tasks, the right has the Keyhole ones and the game task is in the middle. Since wikis will have three tasks but the game will only have one, the center column's text needs to be enlarged and embellished to draw more attention and look balanced. We'll also need an explanation piece of text for how to email the Wiki to submit a completed task. The poll and mailbag can go side by side below.}}

Is it okay if I add my flick rush page to the template above? {{User:Chainoffire/sig}} 02:21, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
:Go ahead :P {{User:TheFifteenthMember/Sig1}} 17:49, 3 May 2014 (UTC)
