[edit] Formatting
The text is "wrapped" around the small square Table of Context box in order to avoid ugly gaping holes of blank space. Try alternatives yourself and see the effect . There is currently an editor going about making a mess of carefully formatted articles to satisfy some obscure personal agenda. --Wetman 21:34, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
- This is not obscure or personal, it was the overwhelming feeling of the VfD discussion for this template. The whitespace generated by a four item Table of Contents is is no way a problem for the layout of any article, let alone this one. There is a reason for the default TOC being as it is, if most people found it ugly it certainly wouldn't be the default. There is no way TOCright or TOCleft are justified for a four item TOC. Saying "every sensible adult" would support its use on these pages is certainly not the case, most sensible adults were and are against its use except as a last resort for long TOCs, and the majority of sensible adults continue using the default TOC in their articles. If you wish to go on abusing this template by using it where it is not remotely neccesary, you may be turning those who voted to keep it as a last resort off it altogether.

[edit] Strategy and Tactics section
I've removed this section. Wikipedia is not an instruction manual. Fugg 00:37, 18 October 2005 (UTC)
I followed that link and failed to see that stated anywhere at all in the rules. So as such I'm going to revert what you did. Mathmo 09:09, 26 March 2006 (UTC)
- WP:WWIN; point 4, "This includes tutorials, walk-throughs, instruction manuals, video game guides, and recipes." Marasmusine 19:27, 3 September 2006 (UTC)
[edit] Specification useless?
Why is the article located at "C-evo (computer game)"? Is there anything else called "C-evo"? Wikipeditor 00:56, 24 October 2005 (UTC)
- Since C-evo was just a redirect to C-evo (computer game) I've moved this article to C-evo. Fugg 04:04, 7 November 2005 (UTC)
[edit] Features that make this game notable
While it shows that the author has invested lots of time into development, and the community has created translations, add-ons and tools, this will also be the case for many other games. But how many games are there with a similar combination of strong points, and how many among 4X games? I don't think there's any other game quite like this.
Feel free to add/change/delete features.
- Streamlined, comparably purist strategy (but with more appealing graphics than other similarly "purist" turn-based strategy games such as The General)
- Equal treatment of human player(s) and AI(s)
- Full determinism
- Players can freely design units to suit their needs instead of simply "unlocking" pre-designed units. I think this feature alone makes the game stand out.
- Although it is a very complex game, it has a good AI, and rules have been carefully fine-tuned to keep the game balanced – there are no gaping flaws or weaknesses. (Of course, network play would be nice, as would more/customisable keyboard support to balance the heavy mouse use.)
- It is completely free an open and has been designed for easy customisation (graphics, city lists) and economic translation which might make the game fairly popular.
[edit] Removed - Nomination for Deletion - 3/25/07
This page was nominated for deletion on 3/25/07 on the basis of WP:N and WP:ATT. I disagree with both of these statements. Many sources can be found online regarding C-Evo and it is a notable freeware Civilization clone. I'm removing the deletion nomination on the article page. If you disagree with this, please post on my talk page. Thanks! Muchris 14:50, 26 March 2007 (UTC)
