[edit] Removed "Trivia" section
25/10/2006 - Removed "trivia" section. There are nutjobs trolling on project forums everywhere. The "fake discontinuation" incident of ePSXe couldn't have been very important, none of us have heard of it. Just a stupid post by a lame one-post wonder troll. Trivia should be important stuff... e.g. Easter Eggs included in the emulator, the devs all code while under the influence, or something significant like that. Not a stupid forum post, a dime a dozen occurances. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 219.95.45.111 (talk • contribs)
- Sorry, but "couldn't have been very important, none of us have heard of it" is an absolutely horrible rationale on more than one level. And that particular post was not a "dime a dozen" as it caused some real commotion in the emulation scene. Since I didn't add it and don't care one way or the other I won't be reverting your change, but I just thought I'd add my two cents on your reasoning. --Kamasutra 15:22, 25 October 2006 (UTC)
Trolls ? Nutjobs ? Mahadi, this concerns ePSXe's very develeopment status actually. There might be some rationale in regulating that section, shortening it or reword in (in a short paragraph), but that still doesnt change the fact ePSXe is NOT updated any longer, for wathever reason it is (be it legal or technical, but this uncertainty was mentioned anyway). That section could've been a little longer than it'd have deserved, but that fact still requires to be mentioned in the article, to make it clear it is DISCONTINUED, as in "not updated any longer". --Omega Said 14:54, 30 October 2006 (UTC)
_Demo_ himself addressed this post by hushypushy on Jan 26 2007 and stated it to be false[3]. For now I will just be removing the false statements, since five words by a developer (who hasn't posted in over three years) isn't very much to derive anything from.

This section should be removed, calb has confirmed it[4]. -hushypushy
[edit] fansite tag
I wanted to go ahead and clean up some of the article's wording, but I'm not an expect on this subject. I went ahead and added this tag to hopefully draw some attention toward the issue. 74.242.99.30 11:55, 28 August 2007 (UTC)
- I did the first clean up and replaced fansite tag with howto tag. Carlosguitar 21:28, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
[edit] PS1 PS2
is this for play station 1 only or play station 2 as well? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 81.158.13.92 (talk) 22:45, 20 December 2007 (UTC)
- It is only for the original PlayStation, the only PlayStation 2 emulator that I am familiar with is PCSX2, and many games are not compatible with it earle117 (talk) 01:11, 13 January 2008 (UTC)
[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:EPSXe.png
Image:EPSXe.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
