TES voice actors

You said that the most notable Elder Scrolls voice actors are already mentioned in the article. Wrong. Theres nothing mentioned about Wes Johnson, the one who did the most voice acting in the game. ---Majestic- 20:46, 2 May 2007 (UTC)

Morrowind FA push

Hey PresN! Since you've been somewhat active on Oblivion and other pages, and since you nominated it for GA such a while back, do you think you could look over The Elder Scrolls III: Morrowind sometime? I'd really like to push it to FAC sometime soon, and I'd like some outside input on the article. You've done a marvelous job trimming down Oblivion and keeping it clean, and I might not always have the strategic distance or critical aptitude required in a good editor, so I'd love any comments or criticisms you have for the article. Thanks! Geuiwogbil 06:35, 13 May 2007 (UTC)

Thanks for the support and comments, and good luck finding some pictures! I've trimmed down the book section. How does it look now? Geuiwogbil 17:57, 13 May 2007 (UTC)
I'm going to FAC now...hope they won't rat on me too hard for only having two pictures. I read they're not so fond of Double-Plus Unfree (viz. Fair Use) images anyways. Thanks for your help! Geuiwogbil 22:39, 20 May 2007 (UTC)

FF Minigames

Hi. Do you think you have it in you to solo the minigames article to Good Article status? I think it will help us if we show that a gameplay-related article can reach GA status; it'll help us toward the goal of an all-GA, A-class, or FA index. — Deckiller 17:13, 14 May 2007 (UTC)

GAC backlog elimination drive

This form message is being sent to you either due to your membership with WikiProject Good Articles and/or your inclusion on the Wikipedia:Good article candidates/List of reviewers. A new drive has been started requesting that all members review at least one article (or more, if you wish!) within the next two weeks at GAC to help in removing the large backlog. This message is being sent to all members, and even members who have been recently reviewing articles. There are almost 130 members in this project and about 180 articles that currently need to be reviewed. If each member helps to review just one or two articles, the majority of the backlog will be cleared. Since the potential amount of reviewers may significantly increase, please make sure to add :{{GAReview}} underneath the article you are reviewing to ensure that only one person is reviewing each article. Additionally, the GA criteria may have been modified since your last review, so look over the criteria again to help you to determine if a candidate is GA-worthy. If you have any questions about this drive or the review process, leave a message on the GAC talk page. --Nehrams2020 00:15, 25 May 2007 (UTC)

A Very Merry Unauthorized Children's Scientology Pageant

Thank you so much for your kind words about the article I wrote, and your helpful points towards GA status. I implemented both of your suggestions, and I believe the article is worthy of GA status and is ready for your re-review. I changed the "Reviews" secton to a "Reception" format, organized it chronologically, and in a paragraph instead of list arrangement. Thank you again for your time and your help. Yours, Smee 02:36, 4 June 2007 (UTC).

Work on Oblivion

Hey PresN, I've been working on the Development section of The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion pretty intensively at intermittent points over the past few weeks, and I'm wondering how it's turned out. Anything missing? Any stylistic tendencies overblown or exaggerated? I'm not sure how much I should flesh the thing out with chat about engines and graphics and such, and the Radiant AI in particular, or if it should even be put in that section. Any comments are welcome, I'd just like a push or a criticism or even something basic to go on, like: "needs more talk about sales", "uses too many quotes. TOO MANY QUOTES." or a "have you checked out <http://or.randomcrap.plebs.com/userjuice/meatyheads.html>. It has some good stuff." I'm feeling a bit nearsighted with respect to the article's status right now. Like you said on the PR, "It has some pretty serious flaws, but they do get hard to see after a while." Thanks for your time! Geuiwogbil 01:08, 7 June 2007 (UTC)

Prague time? O_o Your userpage says UTC-6, not UTC+1. I like my content content content, but I guess trimming needs to come sometime, and if cuts are made, I think yours are the best to make. (I still feel bad about cutting good (read: policy and guideline compliant) content. Could I make a "Development of the Elder Scrolls series"? Or would that be too lame of a content dump? ...Maybe later, when I'm working on the TES page itself.) As regards the first PR, the plot still needs serious trimming; I've cut the guilds section, as one of those things that players of the game consider "knowledge", but which isn't really useful, interesting, or important to the subject at hand (what others call "gamecruft"), so that's done with. I've really only done substantial work on "Development". I'd rather do some extensive work on "Gameplay" (some of which could then be cut and sent to Gameplay of the Elder Scrolls series, as I did with Morrowind), "Expansions" and "Reception", and do a good cleanup of "Setting" before I move on to PR. The more work we do on this end, the more precise and helpful the comments will be on that end, after all. Thanks again for your help cutting the page down! Geuiwogbil 15:22, 7 June 2007 (UTC)
Will do. Thanks for clarifying the Prague situation. Geuiwogbil 00:20, 8 June 2007 (UTC) Good work! It looks much leaner now. Geuiwogbil 01:14, 8 June 2007 (UTC)
Hey again PresN. I sort of stopped working on Oblivion for a while, and came up with this: Development history of The Elder Scrolls series. It doesn't contain much new material: I wrote up brief sections on Bethesda's development background, the development of Arena, Daggerfall, Battlespire, and Redguard (mostly sourced from Bethesda's own "10th Anniversary", but also partially from the somewhat longer article in The Escapist, with significant coloration from an interview given by Ted Peterson to Morrowind Italia in early 2001. In addition, it basically contains the Morrowind development section without change, and the somewhat longer version of Oblivion's development section. It's still missing some commentary on Oblivion's odd little distribution mechanism (in packets of 2$ content) for the downloadable pieces of expansion pack material, and material on the development of Oblivion's expansions in general. What do you think of the article? I'm not sure anyone's written a "Development history" article on the Wiki yet, so I'm sort of at a loss as for role models or guidelines. What do you think of the early sections? In particular, what do you think of the "Background" section? I think it's important in demonstrating the ethos and odd background of the company in the late 80s, but it isn't all that relevant to TES in particular. It's something of a toss up. On a side note, I've nominated the thing for DYK, with the admittedly lame tagline "...that, prior to developing the Elder Scrolls series, Bethesda Softworks was primarily a sports game company?", which isn't all that relevant to the subject of the article, but which I found interesting anyways...
Before I speak too much more, I'll wait for your response and guidance. Thanks for your time! Geuiwogbil 05:21, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
Thanks for the comments and support. :) What I'd really like, as far as images go, would be some shots of the Dev team, or individual members thereof, since they're mentioned so often in the article. Probably won't have much luck there, though, as I'd run up against the fact that: (i) I can't use any of the available shots on the interweb, b/c our FU policy dislikes it. (ii) No freely available shots on the net. (iii) I'm nowhere near Maryland. I guess some generic shots from the games would work well too: This is Arena, behold its ugliness; This is Redguard, behold its lameness. I'll see what I can do as regards the lead. Thanks again! Geuiwogbil 09:19, 20 June 2007 (UTC)

Good work merging the "Race" pages. I'd imagine the "Argonians" should be merged off soon too, once the UESP gets the cite.php extension and I can dump those revisions that I have specifically edited over there. Fewer pages, better content! Since you're on, I'd love some critical commentary regarding the I've been working on over at The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion recently: the ESRB rating change bit, and the downloadable content bit, which I've only been working on since this morning. The latter will probably see most of its content on the main page condensed, with the details kept on the "Development" subpage, but I'm not sure how to go about merging the former. I might even end up splitting it off... Sorry for having lost interest in "Development", but I'm going to wait for a GA review before moving forward with that one. Thanks for the pictures! Geuiwogbil 09:08, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Oh, and you should have this.

The Original Barnstar
For maintaining the Oblivion article free of trivialities and vandalism, for judiciously merging disparate pages into one cohesive whole, for sensibly and kindly reviewing the work of others, and for doing it all with a good sense of decorum, I hereby award you this barnstar. Keep up the good work! Geuiwogbil 09:16, 6 July 2007 (UTC)
Bye, PresN! Have fun in Europe! I'll work on trimming and merging the excess content, and I'll keep on sailing Oblivion towards the far-off shores of Featured Article candidacy... Geuiwogbil 23:51, 6 July 2007 (UTC)

Minigames of Final Fantasy

Hey. I think this article will be fairly easy to get to GA status. We just need a section on the gold saucer, some trimming/sourcing from strategy guides or manuals, and filling in those reception sections. — Deckiller 22:15, 13 June 2007 (UTC)

July 2007 GAC backlog elimination drive

A new elimination drive of the backlog at Wikipedia:Good article candidates will take place from the month of July through August 12, 2007.

Awards will be given based on the number of reviews completed. Since the potential amount of reviewers may significantly increase, please make sure to add :{{GAReview}} underneath the article you are reviewing to ensure that only one person is reviewing each article. Additionally, the GA criteria may have been modified since your last review, so look over the criteria again to help you to determine if a candidate is GA-worthy.

Meantime

Hey there! I was wondering if you could take a look at an maybe asses the article Meantime (video game). I've been doing minor edits all over Wikipedia for a while now, but this is the first real article I've written. I've seen this game mentioned all over the place, but real info is very hard to come by. Thanks! ~ JohnnyMrNinja 20:57, 30 July 2007 (UTC)

The elder scrolls

What that editor did redirecting everything is wrong. When editors make actions like that "they need concensus" to do it, and he never. He even removed a good article for a sake of it, which is a bad thing. He was out of order doing that and he shouldn't do it again, make sure those articles aren't touched.

666 Satan Wikiproject

not really sure how to start this message so i will the way i do any other message

yo PresN, we've never really talked but the names Ancientanubis(call me anubis if ya want:P) i've recently(recently=since march) been working on the article(s) of 666 Satan which as you may or may not know, technically falls under the Square Enix WikiProject, long story short i'm thinking of making a WIkiproject for 666 Satan as to allow me & fellow steady editors to better collaborate our ideas, suggestions(to-do list), and to possibly better improve the quality of the article(s) as a whole, what i was wondering though is what your views are on there being a wikiproject dedicated to a series such as 666 Satan(we only have about 5 pages) if it were to be made though, it could be looked at as either a sub project of Square Enix Wikiproject, or something like that.... basically im just lookin for ways to help organize the thoughts of all the editors and make things easier for all of us... respond when you get a chance(hope your havin fun in Europe) thanks, Ancientanubis, talk Editor Review 03:01, 6 August 2007 (UTC)

Houses of Morrowind

A proposed deletion template has been added to the article Houses of Morrowind, suggesting that it be deleted according to the proposed deletion process. All contributions are appreciated, but this article may not satisfy Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and the deletion notice should explain why (see also "What Wikipedia is not" and Wikipedia's deletion policy). You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{dated prod}} notice, but please explain why you disagree with the proposed deletion in your edit summary or on its talk page. Also, please consider improving the article to address the issues raised.
