From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
My revision replaced a pretty obvious copyright violation, the original being here: [1]. That it was shameless marketting copy giving a feature list true for almost every MMORPG ever created just made it worse. I summarized the actual facts as best I could. Frankly, the long "stuff AWplanet clains" sentence can probably be deleted without any loss of content. Of course doing so will turn the article into an embarrassingly short stub.

[edit] Deletions
Alan,
1) game is not support - PDAs and mobile phones. Please remove. 2) Why did you remove additional information? There is no conflict with terms.

- 1) The official website says, "You can start playing the game after only a few minutes of downloading the client, on almost any device (including PDA and mobile phones)." 2) Additional information? Which information? I deleted the links to the forums and documentatin because they're right at the top of the official home page, which is in the link list. Generally speaking an article only gets one "official" link. As for the body text, it was a pretty clear copy of content found elsewhere on the web (here in this case). As the bold warning on the bottom of the editor says, "Do not copy text from other websites without permission. It will be deleted." If you're the copyright holder and you're releasing it under the GFDL, you'll need to very clearly state that that is the case.

- I've re-added the claim. The official website still makes te claim, and it's very noteworthy that such a game would support such platforms. Please do not remove without a counter-citation. — Alan De Smet | Talk 00:05, 21 April 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Notability
I've removed the dated prod deletion note added in this edit. The reason given was "reason nn web game also fails wp:web". Excepting that the game doesn't appear to be a web game. It has a downloadable client. The screenshots suggest 3d graphics beyond what you'd see in a typical "web game." Mind you, the game may still fail notability tests, but holding it to the web site notability guidelines seems incorrect. (That said, anyone who really cares about this article, consider this a reminder: this article needs third party citations from reliable sources. A single bit of in depth coverage, say a full review from a reputable game magazine or web site would be an excellent start. (And the review doesn't need to be positive. :-) Absent such citations, the article may yet be deleted.) — Alan De Smet | Talk 05:04, 28 October 2007 (UTC)
[edit] Third-party references/reviews
Are there any third party references or reviews to this game? it looks like it's Russian in origin, so it may have reviews in Russian Language MMO sites. Unfortunately the article really needs these references to establish verifiability and notability. If you have any questions or need any further info, please let me know.
