Talk:Game History

For Newbie Games, you may find Newbie_Game/History helpful. Somestrangeflea 06:19, 12 August 2007 (MDT)

yeah, i'm hoping to transfer all the games from that page to this page, creating a wiki page for each game, and putting the information there, and just having a link for the page here...

I'd think Newbie Games would be low on the priority list, since they're already documented (well, except for gaps) and fairly simple/standard in setup/outcome. I'm going to keep building the combined history page for now... Mr. Flay 15:28, 14 August 2007 (MDT)

what would you say should be high on the priority list, then?.. one of the reasons why i've been working on the Newbies is b/c the Newbie Game/History page is so big that whenever i go to edit it, i get this message:

WARNING: This page is 87 kilobytes long; some browsers may have problems editing pages approaching or longer than 32kb. Please consider breaking the page into smaller sections.

I'd say getting the Theme Park and Open Games are probably the highest priority, because they're biggest and/or weirdest. Then Large Normals, then probably Minis, then Newbies. It's also true that I'm probably avoiding Minis because there's SO MANY OF THEM, and newbies because they already exist in some form, at least. -- Mr. Flay 12:33, 16 August 2007 (MDT)

i'll be more than happy to start on Theme Park & Open Games once we get the gamebox perfected...

also, do you think this page would be better off named 'Game History', or something else?.. in retrospect, i don't think 'Game List' is the best name...

I'm not crazy about Game List - what about Games/History? Do we even have a games page? ::ewp:: apparently not... Game History is probably good, or Game Archive. -- Mr. Flay 12:33, 16 August 2007 (MDT)

over in the Talk:User_page we talked about creating a "Games:" namespace... if we did that, then i think "Games:History" would be good... i like "History" over "Archive", b/c "Archive" implies it only relates to older games, but "History" implies a full history of past, present, & future? games...

revival

Let's revive this. What I'd really like to see is links to both the games' wiki pages and forum threads. I suggest using {{Game}} for this. —Fenhl 13:36, 30 November 2010 (EST)
