Tribes 2: Elements of Gameplay

Wikipedia is not a game guide. Isn't there a specific games wiki for this sort of stuff? -- RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 10:16, 21 November 2007 (UTC)}}[reply]

~~Merge~~ the critical elements to Tribes 2, as the entire section on elements of gameplay consists of a link to this article. If I get time, I'll distill a paragraph or two summary for inclusion at Tribes 2 - that should be there even if this is kept. ZZ ^Claims~ Evidence 13:45, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Changed to Delete, as everything is already covered under gameplay (per my review and Pagrashtak). ZZ ^Claims~ Evidence 14:03, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete. Tribes 2 already has a Gameplay section with content, and this subarticle is too detailed for Wikipedia and resembles game guide information. Pagra shtak 14:00, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete this is exactly the kind of undue weight heaped upon the minutiae of gameplay which stops game articles developing. The reason it was too big for the article is that it's completely unnecessary in the first place - where are the out-of-universe details? There'll be a thousand and one in-depth guides covering this information and more. There won't be somewhere that all the information is available about the product as a whole - that's what we're here for.Someone another (talk) 19:24, 21 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment: Copied over to StrategyWiki:Tribes 2/Getting Started. -- Prod-You (talk) 00:57, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Excellent, thank you.Someone another (talk) 01:03, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: I agree, y'all. This information does not need to be present on Wikipedia. I split the topic because the original article Tribes 2 was insanely massive. There are numerous websites with this kind of information, and doesn't need to be on Wikipedia. Sorry.. D: 142.167.177.240 (talk) 21:57, 22 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

KEEP: I believe that this is very important because it has changed the pattern of all online games since. Plus, the Tribes 2 article is lacking in size. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 70.118.214.224 (talk) 05:37, 25 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]
