[edit] Move to "Geo-political simulator"?
Seeing as there is no article on Geo-political simulators, I don't see why this article should be so specific. The advantage of a move would be that we could include the few (if any) non-web-based geo-political simulators referenced to in the opening paragraph with this sentence: Some are tabletop or computerized games, but these are outside the scope of this article. If there aren't any, it should be moved anyways as "web-based" is then redundant. What say ye? I'll leave it as it is for 24h or so, if there are no objections I'll go ahead.

- To address your earlier point. I believe non-web-based games of this type would be classified as either boardgames or computer games. It should be noted that there are literally hundreds of board and computer games of this type. To avoid shoehorning this into a vast article detailing all human endevour to simulate nations, I would suggest retaining this article.

- Whatever the case, I'm going to move it to Geo-political web-based simulator - notice the different casing. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 11:13, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Qpawn contradiction
The second sentence of the second paragraph under the header History reads: The first Qpawn, called quite simply Qpawn Original, was set in present day (as of 1996).
The next paragraph, the first under the header Qpawn reads: Qpawn started in 1998.
What's the deal here? 1996 or 1998? Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 23:54, 9 December 2006 (UTC)
- Someone changed it, so I'll remove the tag later. However, it desperately needs sourcing. Jobjörn (Talk ° contribs) 11:13, 11 December 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Missing citations
After reading through the article, I was about to add a {{unreferenced}} tag. Then I noticed the quite amazing list of references - however, these are poorly formatted, and in any case they need to be cited in the text, preferrably with the <ref>-tag. (See WP:STYLE.)

[edit] Mediation
There's an ongoing mediation between Djackl and Itake involving this page. If the issue has been resolved already, please let me know so I can close the case. If not, do we want to continue the case, or have the parties become disinterested? ~Kylu (u|t) 19:04, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
