Wikipedia is not a strategy guide or instruction manual. Wikipedia articles should focus on the games themselves, not on how to play them; they should not contain tips, tricks, or cheat codes. That information is available elsewhere, in printed guides and online, and does not belong in an encyclopedia entry. Please do not add your own hints or opinions of the game. Verifiable content about the history, design, and overall description of the game is welcome. If you have questions about whether specific information should be added, ask here first.

[edit] MMOG Assessment

Stub - needs referencing, asserting itself as an MMOG and needs to read less like a list. --Samtheboy (t/c) 00:54, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Hi! I'll be deleting a mass of info and/or consolidating it under the Gameplay section in a short while. If you want, have a good read of WP:NOT#GUIDE, WP:NOT#INFO, and scope guidelines for an idea of what I'll be doing. Cheers. Ong elvin 02:38, 13 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Information Cropping

Hi! I'll be explaining why I've done each of my edits as I do them. Might be helpful to read WP:NOT#GUIDE, WP:NOT#INFO, and WP:CVG/GL#Scope_of_information before continuing. Ong elvin 01:34, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

First up, Gameplay. Removed the explanation on how the shooting is done. The link to Artillery (computer game) provides sufficient explanation on its own. The links to the game guide should only be mentioned in the External Links section. The Weather section doesn't need a description of each day. The Gameplay's single sentence is sufficient for the scope of Wikipedia. Ong elvin 01:41, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
Next up, Mobiles and Weapon Classes. This information is pretty much just a list of information and explains the workings of the game beyond the scope of Wikipedia. A simple this game is like Rock Paper Scissors will suffice. Listing the pros and cons of making a particular selection is easily game guide material. I killed the Weapon Classes section and moved Mobiles to a subsection of Gameplay. Likewise, I removed Item information. Ong elvin 01:54, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
Finally, I've removed the Game Modes section from the Wiki. They don't provide insight to how the game is played beyond the artillery link, and only the Jewel mode is any different whereby the player is firing at Jewels instead of other players. Ong elvin 02:06, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

and these are all reasons why wikipedia is going to hell Thanks alot ong elvin, you are a douchebag —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.164.6.28 (talk) 00:37, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Not sure if this thing I added should be kept...

I've added a comment that the mobiles in tag have seperate health values (that is, they do not share their health). I'm not sure if this should be kept, and only thought that it might be a helpful addition. Eyra 16:24, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

Well all tag games I've played use separate health values for each team member. I'd say it's not really necessary, but could be left in. Although I'd reword it slightly in keeping it. Ong elvin 14:22, 11 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Where is Gunbound Revolution?

Umm, I don't know if you guys know this, but Gunbound World Champion is not played anymore. It's Gunbound: Revolution serviced by ijji. This page needs to be completely redone, as this is not in existence in North America. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Drizzt908 (talk • contribs) 04:59, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit] Gunbound's Origins?

I don't know whether this is true, but I'm just wondering (if there any other Koreans using English Wiki), didn't Gunbound used to be called "Fortress" (or its Korean transliteration) in Korea around 8 years ago? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 220.245.7.89 (talk) 11:52, 23 April 2008 (UTC)
