[edit] CVG Infobox
Yeah, I see your point about the media. Maybe it should be blank unless something more specific is included, such as the number of megabytes, or the number of discs for a multiple disc game. --Pagrashtak 16:04, 20 July 2005 (UTC)
[edit] re:ESRB Rating
"Game has been created before the formation of the ESRB, or the ESRB has chosen not to rate the game for one or more factors." Since there are two cases here (pre-ESRB and ESRB choosing not to rate a game,) and the ESRB never officially chose not to rate games released before they existed, I feel that it would make sense to make a distinction between the two. Thank you for pointing that out though, and just so you know, if you decide to revert, I'll leave it since I see a case for using a uniform NR.

[edit] Computer and video game stubs
I just read a discussion you started in WP:WSS/P about computer and video game stubs. You talked about the rubenesque size of the stub category. I must therefore apologize for moving stubs from corp-stub to cvg-stub and adding to the mess. On WP:WSS/P I proposed a new category: cvg-corp-stub, for the game developers. Any views on this? Hoogachtend ;) Aecis 10:50, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
[edit] List of..
Nice work breaking up the article List of computer and video games by name. It was long overdue for a split. :) 204.86.170.127 hyK1Bond007 16:20, August 12, 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Re: Captain Blood stub type
It might be better to describe Captain Blood as an adventure game rather than an action game, since most of the gameplay consists of having conversations. (Haven't been on here long so not sure if this is the right place to mention it, or if it's too minor an issue to be worth discussing) -- Arganoid 20:56, 3 October 2005 (GMT)
[edit] Stub changing!
Woah! Good work with the stub sorting of video games. -- Thorpe talk 20:38, 3 October 2005 (UTC)

[edit] Ken Kutaragi
I'm requesting your opnion about this dispute. Lot of POV-Pushing, the article is currently blocked. --GroundZero 21:03, 20 December 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Re: comment edit?
Hi, no problem, I'm sure something strange just went wrong. Zo lang je het maar niet weer doet ;) jaco♫plane 20:23, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
- Also, if you write more useful tools like the infobox generator, you can edit my comments as much as you like !!! \o/ jaco♫plane 22:18, 5 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] List of Lemmings games
Check out Talk:Lists_of_video_games_and_computer_games and User:Touth's contributions to a variety of discussion pages if you want insight into why he's creating this useless list. -- Xinit 17:52, 21 June 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Nintendo 64 games
Hi, nice work on all the new Gamecube game articles! I myself have been creating articles for Nintendo 64 games but am having trouble finding information for Japan only games, any suggestions? Thanks. --Timkovski 13:39, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
-Thanks for the link, the site looks good, I'll get to work later! I noticed that IGN has profiles on some of the more notable imports, so you could check there and maybe you'll get lucky. --Timkovski 15:32, 2 August 2006 (UTC)
-I've found an absolutely incredible site, it gives basic info on every game I've tried so far, as well as the games name in kanji which can be googled. http://vgrebirth.org/ --Timkovski 11:55, 3 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GT Cube
Hi, I've proposed that GT Cube be merged into the GT Pro Series article, and so far the discussion is only between me and one other editor (with a differing viewpoint, so currently with no chance of consensus). I noticed you created the page originally, so your opinion would be appreciated to help possibly reach a consensus. The discussion is at Talk:GT Cube. Thanks, Nova Prime 04:44, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Infobox maker
I think there are a few small bugs in the infobox maker. I entered some experimental input and this is what I got. The release date region seems to be closing the wikilink tag twice and I don't think the OFLC link is meant to be like that. I've added a link to the generator in the External links section of WP:CVG, for some reason it wasn't there before. Cheers, JACOPLANE • 2007-01-5 21:30
- I just remembered that the whole thing is just JavaScript. I'll see if I can find what's wrong myself. Not so strong with JS though. JACOPLANE • 2007-01-5 22:33
This line should be changed:
ratings += '[[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Office of Film and Literature Classification (Australia)|OFLC]]: ' + x.oflc.value to: ratings += '[[Office of Film and Literature Classification (Australia)|OFLC]]: ' + x.oflc.value
Also, I think this is the problem with the extra tags:
if (x.loc1.value == 'United States')
{ release += 'North America|NA' }
else if (x.loc1.value == 'Europe')
{ release += 'Europe|EUR]])' }
else if (x.loc1.value == 'Japan')
{ release += 'Japan|JPN]])' }
else if (x.loc1.value == 'Australia')
{ release += ' (AUS)' }
The North America if doesn't have the "]]" while the other ones do. JACOPLANE • 2007-01-5 22:39
Cool, thanks for updating! You should have a look at this discussion, X201 was talking about some new accepted standards (I'm not sure, haven't been following the discussion about that). Take care, JACOPLANE • 2007-01-6 23:10
[edit] Stars!
'llo :) User:Tzaquiel dumped a gamecleanup template on the Stars! game page and we(those who usually edit the page) are not terribly experienced wikipedians, and Tzaquiel hasn't responded to requests for what he thinks is wrong with it. Any help you can provide in this regards would be appreciated. Why you? Because WP:CVG/GL suggests critical reviews and according to WP:CVG/M you have a copy of the March 1996 PC Gamer, which contains a review of Stars!. Would you mind digging it out and seeing if there's anything worth adding to the Star! article please? Thanx in advance Gible Fog 09:56, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
