::::Ah, they were talking about that? Well, that's virtually the same thing, and it's a one-way teleport basically, definitely not a Portal in the sense of what is called a Portal in the Metroid universe. I can also get the scan for the Warp Site teleporter thingy at a later date if necessary. {{User:Bop1996/sig}} 19:45, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

== Infobox? ==
This would look pretty with an infobox. Can we create one, perhaps for either technology or spatial anomalies? It would fit under either, in this case. Unless someone has a better suggestion, of course! {{:User:Embyr_75/sig}} 17:51, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
:I've been meaning to make one for those research entries and other sorts of things like that (like Wall Jump Surfaces and Spider Ball Tracks and the like), but I wasn't able to think of concise parameters and got distracted by the alarmingly high amount of creature article maintenance I had in front of me. Spatial anomalies seem too specific since there's not many that are actually anomalies. Technology seems too broad, so unless we strictly define what technology articles get this and what articles get a specific other infobox, it'd get confusing fast. {{User:Bop1996/sig}} 20:58, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
::Hmm, true. Perhaps we could make a Technology infobox with the understanding that it is only for Technologies that are not any sort of Equipment used by Samus, or vehicles, weapons, or enemies. It could have parameters such as |Uses= |Creators= and |Locations=... As usual, though, I'm definitely open for better options. I'm just trying to get the ball rolling here. Why aren't there more odd phenomena in the Metroid series?! I would love a Phenomena infobox! XD {{:User:Embyr_75/sig}} 23:55, 16 January 2012 (UTC)
:::Since we were already going through and defining our infobox situation recently anyway, I have no problems with that, provided we can make it clear what articles it would go on. Creators, games, locations, planets, and users (and appearances to an extent, although there aren't many new technological aspects in the Smash Bros. series or manga) seem fairly standard. I'd focus on the rest having details such as how they affect the environment and how they are used, in addition to what the uses are. {{User:Bop1996/sig}} 00:10, 17 January 2012 (UTC)
