[edit] Cutting down content
If there's no objections, I'll remove the Souls, Magic, and Locations sections which are more appropriate for a game FAQ and not Wikipedia Sraan 18:26, 1 October 2006 (UTC)
- I object to that content removal! I object to enstubment! That content is not intended to be a game guide. They are merely descriptions. Therefore, I will put some of that back in. The text that appears in the title sequence, which was under Introduction section, does not appear in any game FAQ. Decimus Tedius Regio Zanarukando 22:53, 27 December 2006 (UTC)
- Regardless of intent, it's still FAQ-like content, that talks about functions of things in the game. It is not encyclopedic content, and if you look at any of the good video game articles around here, you won't find that kind of content. Also, including a transcription of the introduction would be a copyright violation, so I wouldn't recommend it. Sraan 06:19, 28 December 2006 (UTC)
- There are similar content in some good video game articles. FAQ-like content is something like how to progress through a game, not something like functions of things in the game. I did not reinsert the transcription of the introduction. Descriptions of locations in a game are also found in good video game articles. Decimus Tedius Regio Zanarukando 07:09, 30 December 2006 (UTC)
- No, FAQ-like content is anything that is only useful to you if you are playing the game, and not to the casual Wikipedia reader. A reader is likely to be interested in the plot, characters, and gameplay of a game, but not what each Soul or magic spell does. Why does anyone need to know that the Soul of Shield helps you in "certain region-based damage zones"? 70.56.114.69 16:26, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
- If you really want it included, then prosify it and put it in the gameplay section (maybe a general discussion about what the souls are, for example, but not going through the function of every soul and spell). 70.56.114.69 16:28, 9 May 2007 (UTC)
