McCain
Hi, I noticed that you're a "Wikiholic" and opponent of vandalism. So, I was wondering if you wouldn't mind helping us to keep an eye on the John McCain article, at least between now and the election in November. It made "featured article" a few days ago, but will undoubtedly come under considerable pressure during the next two months. The more eyes on it the better. Thanks.Ferrylodge (talk) 03:03, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
- Thanks again. :-) Ferrylodge (talk) 18:16, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
McCain Talk
Sorry, I'd just fixed the automatic archiving - and archive headings for it to work smoothly - so the talkpage doesn't grow out of proportion (probably neccessary now when the real election campaign is about to begin). --Hapsala (talk) 21:00, 26 August 2008 (UTC)
- Sure, but automatic archiving works fine if it's done properly. And with Talk:McCain, it will most probably prove necessary in weeks to come. Thanks for your concern, though. --Hapsala (talk) 21:29, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Reason?: [1], Sir Lothar (talk) 23:09, 19 September 2008 (UTC)
- Cool, if IGN mention the thing it's ok. The problem is giving realiable sources to all new games. Greets, Sir Lothar (talk) 02:55, 20 September 2008 (UTC)
Expansion of Peshawar Lancers
I'm planning to expand Peshawar Lancers by using some of these sources here. Do you know of anything else I should cite? Zombie Hunter Smurf (talk) 01:58, 23 September 2008 (UTC)
Halo
I still support the merge, but the discussion isn't active really, because of the lack of presence in it. - A Link to the Past (talk) 00:32, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
- Well, if no one is editing the article enough to notice the discussion, WP:BOLD might allow a merge. - A Link to the Past (talk) 01:19, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Call of Duty
Hi, please don't delete cited information. It is considered vandalism. Thank you. Green Squares (talk) 17:59, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
- I did not vandalize, the info you added is inappropriate for WP under WP:GAMEGUIDE and WP:GAMECRUFT. Lists of trivial features are never accepted into articles (this includes lists of weapons, achievements, and such things as Call of Duty multiplayer perks), and I was perfectly within the guidelines to revert you. -- Comandante {Talk} 18:04, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
- Hi, the Perks were just announced, let's leave it for a few days. Best to discuss it on the article talk page anyway. Green Squares (talk) 18:07, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
- We can't leave the info in, it's specifically against the guidelines. If I hadn't reverted you, someone else would have for the same reasons. As far as I'm concerned, to have the info included, the burden would be on you to explain why we should go against WP:GAMECRUFT in this one article above all others. If you want to keep your info in, make your argument on the article's talk page, but until consensus agrees with, the info has to stay out. We can't assume a consensus in your favor just because you would like to see the info included. -- Comandante {Talk} 18:13, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
Halo 3 Recon Image
I deleted it. The official cover has just been released, anyhow, I'm adding it to the article now. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 22:06, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
- Heheh, I wasn't even looking for it, I just followed a link and there it was. But who knows, it may not be the final box art, so there's still a chance for you to win :P Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 22:23, 10 October 2008 (UTC)
Fallout 3
Oh....so it just wasn't visible. Thanks for your help. kliu1 (talk) 07:49, 29 October 2008 (UTC)
Thanks! (List of WiiWare games)
Thanks for the barnstar. I enjoyed doing some adjustments on that table. Have a good night! Vernon (Versus22) (talk) 02:18, 25 November 2008 (UTC)
Please Understand This in This Message
If you look up on gamerankings or metacritic, since the PC version hasn't been realeased, there are no ratings of Call of Duty World at War. Therefore, I deleted the false information. Please Respond Pianoman12345 (talk) 22:11, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
Template Color
For the Template:Gears of War series Where does it say in Wikipedia guidelines that alter of the default template color is discouraged? There is about a million templates out there that does "NOT" use the default colors seeing that wikipedia has provided coding to alter it in anyway. Are you just making it up yourself just to have it shown your way or not? I changed the color to better resemble the series color and not merely out of my own color liking. --҉ რɫՒ◌§ 9¤ ॐ 07:27, 3 January 2009 (UTC)
- It does not actually say its discouraged looking at the link you gave me it sounds like its referring to the article's text formatting as for color it says that you can but not to use certain colors that will make it almost impossible for the blind to read. Whoever told you did not look at "THAT" correctly. Quote: "Using color alone to convey information (color coding) should not be done." A Navbox is not really information just a box full of links. --҉ რɫՒ◌§ 9¤ ॐ 06:31, 4 January 2009 (UTC)
Call of Duty Nomination GAN
I did contribute slightly to this article. I think it deserves to be a good article.--What!?Why?Who? (talk) 21:43, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
- I'll gladly contribute to it more. After all, isn't contributing to articles what Wikipedia is all about? Happy New Year!--What!?Why?Who? (talk) 21:51, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Resistance 2 reviews
I was wondering if you could add some good reviews that RESISTANCE 2 received in the right hand column and cite them. Someone's been deleting them and I can't seem to RE-do it myself. THANKS Pianoman12345 (talk) 00:16, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
Could you get the ratings from Gamepspot, Gametrailers, and X-Play for Resistance 2 and make sure it shows the information on Wikipedia? It would be greatly, truly appreciated. It doesn't say it's a violation, it simly doesn't show up when I try to do it. Thats why am asking you. Thank You. Pianoman12345 (talk) 03:20, 10 January 2009 (UTC)
Call of Duty edits
The day after, Activision stated it was speculation on 12-4-08, not official as proven by Robert Bowling on 1-11-09.
http://www.videogamer.com/news/04-12-2008-10107.html "Despite the apparent validity of the news (Newsweek's much respected blogger N'Gai Croal twittered from the event), a representative from Activison Blizzard told VideoGamer.com this afternoon that the reports were "speculative as far as we're concerned"."
http://www.fourzerotwo.com/2009/01/11/beware-of-fake-cod5-beta-invites/ "We have yet to even officially announce our next project" 71.170.62.166 (talk) 18:51, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
- Also, I am not stating the game is not in development. I am stating the title/name is not official. The link does not confirm the title, it simply confirms the actual game. It also doesn't make it true, as a rep stated the following day that it was speculation. Is speculation now considered a confirmed source? 71.170.62.166 (talk) 19:06, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
- A bit condescending, but it seems that is the most it'll change as I obviously won't be able to make any adjustments on my own. 71.170.62.166 (talk) 19:27, 29 January 2008 (UTC)
Al-Asad's Warhead in CoD4
I checked again and found where SAS was mentioned in the level. SAS was mentioned in the intro before the level starts, whereas Seal Team Six was mentioned during the game (right after the advance team is rescued and Jackson is back in chopter manning the machine gun).

Re: Plot and Synopsis
Okay, glad that's settled with. I hope the Plot section won't grow any bigger now. When I brought the article to FAC, the Plot section was roughly the same size at about 1200 words, so it was partly my fault that it stayed that way. Now that it's down to about 700 words, it shouldn't grow any bigger. The article is getting a lot of edits even when it's semiprotected and released over a year ago, crazy. Gary King (talk) 20:41, 11 February 2009 (UTC)
- You could nominate Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 at Template talk:Did you know if you have a good hook for it. Gary King (talk) 04:37, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
- The fact mentioned in the hook needs to be referenced in the article; the reference needs to be immediately after the fact. Gary King (talk) 20:58, 12 February 2009 (UTC)
