[edit] Article promoted!

The bot hasn't updated it yet, but Raul has promoted CoM to FA status! Great job, everyone (I'm looking at you, Guyinblack25). Axem Titanium 01:59, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

Good work, everybody. ' 04:53, 4 August 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Wording in the lead paragraph

Surely we can come to a consensus about this. No sense breaking WP:3RR over something like a single word. To be honest, in my opinion, I think either one will suffice. But I can see pluses to either word. Both are applicable to the content. "Installment" sounds more encyclopedic/intellectual and "game" sound more generic/layman for general audiences. So what does everyone else think? (Guyinblack25 talk 20:26, 6 August 2007 (UTC))

Nevermind, Kariteh, seems to have come up with a good solution. (Guyinblack25 talk 20:29, 6 August 2007 (UTC))

[edit] Swearing

Can we try to create a foundation where this line "the first game in the Kingdom Hearts series to use swearing" is notable? Aside from "hell" and "bitch", can you provide in-game citation as evidence, and more importantly, statements from game reviewers about such an issue? Thanks. — Blue 22:50, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

BTW, I've checked the game script and there's no instances of "bitch", and "hell" only occurred once as a figure of speech. So, I don't think this is notable, I'm not sure if any game reviewer said anything about it, but I'm sure it's just a minor issue. If there's a source, please discuss it first here. Thanks. — Blue 23:18, 22 January 2008 (UTC)

Dude, chill. This isn't the first video game series to use words that would seem like swearing. No one expected this in a disney game with Goofy and Donald, sure, but that's no reason to go all crazy over one word. It hasn't effected anything, so what's the point of mentioning?
Btw, in the Japenese script of the remake(as if there were any other script), when (spoiler warning) At the scene when Vexen is being "silenced" at the manor gates in Twilight Town, Axel snaps his fingers and makes Vexen explode. When he is gone, Sora, freaked out beyond reason turns to Axel and screams, "What the HELL is wrong with you people?!" to which Axel replies something like, "That's what I'm wondering, too..." Just so ya' knew which you probably already did...

True, sir. I was only replying to this diff made by another user. The English version carry no swear words, I checked the script. The Japanese remake does (and so did the original) but then again we're referring to the English version. — Blue 13:24, 2 April 2008 (UTC)
The lone use of "hell" is where Axel is alone with Namine in the Organization's little room. He releases her, then tells everyone to "Give me a hell of a show!" That's the only instance of any sort of swearing. (BTW, I doubt the Japanese version has any real swearing--there are very few instances in Japanese where single words are explicit; generally someone is simply speaking in an excessively rough or rude tone and it gets translated as swearing.)—Loveはドコ?

[edit] The Other Motive

Should we bring up The mysterious Room of Awakening mentioned in Kingdom Hearts 2 Final Mix+? In that game it mentions (in a new scene) that the Organization had another motive for being at Castle Oblivion that involved the Room of Awakening. I believe that this is signifigant enough to at least mention it somewhere on this page. Twilit awakening (talk) 02:07, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

That's better for the Organization XIII and Universe of Kingdom Hearts pages (Castle Oblivion section); the Room of Awakening has little in particular to do with this game.—Loveはドコ? (talkcontribs) 03:41, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Yah I guess thats true.Twilit awakening (talk) 22:12, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
