Talk:Independent Games Festival

message: I just wanted to bring awareness to the fact that this page has no friendly box with fast facts and a photo/logo in the right upper corner. I'm reading "largest annual gathering of the indie video game industry" and "founded in 1998", but when I see this wiki article, all I can think of is: "Did somebody just make this whole thing up?" Unfortunately I'm not skilled enough to do those updates myself, but if someone with the skills, who's caring or affiliated with the Independent Games Festival could look into this, this article could look a lot 'richer'.

Talk:The Games Machine

message: I suggest to merge the article at The Games Machine (Italy) into the main The Games Machine article, for the following reasons:
* There is nothing in that article that cannot be explained in the section "The Games Machine in Italy" here. Even a cut-and-paste job would do.
* When the British magazine still existed, the Italian version was its translation, so its history is inextricably bound to the history of the original. Devil Master (talk) 15:36, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

message: Mitnick's book pretty much directly contradicts her claims of being in a "hacker group" with Mitnick and de Payne. Not to mention, after she targeted Mitnick for revenge by illegally accessing US Leasing and reportedly making all their printers print out "Mitnick was here" till they ran out of paper, it seems he takes a rather dim view of her. So I don't know how she could possibly claim to be a part of any "group" with Mitnick.  MrAureliusRTalk! 15:36, 6 December 2023 (UTC)

Talk:Electronic Games

message: This magazine was A REALLY BIG DEAL during the early 1980s.  Its a shame this article is only a very brief stub, because it totally fails to reflect the significance this publication had to suburban American boys born around the year 1970.  It was like our Bible.  This was pretty much THE publication on THE most interesting thing (or so it seemed, to our young minds) in the freakin' world (people who grew up with video games will never understand how exciting it was when they first came out).  I would love to expand this article, but I haven't seen a copy of it since it went out of print, a quarter of a century ago, so my memory is a little hazy.  Here's an amusing anecdote, however.  Perhaps this can somehow be incorporated into a future version of the article.
Back in 1982, Electronic Games magazine was hoaxed.  They published a review of a supposed Imagic game for the Atari 2600, called "Murder on The Orient Express."  Man, did it look AWESOME!  Well, as it turns out, their review was totally fraudulent, as it was based on a review of the same product that had appeared in the April 1982 issue of Electronic Fun magazine.  The thing is, the reason this game looked so damn good was due to the fact that it was far beyond the tecnhnical capabilities of the Atari 2600.  The Electronic Fun review was an April Fool's joke.  So not only did Electronic Games magazine fall for the hoax, but by publishing their own review, they revealed themselves to be less than ethical.
I have two sources.  One is "original research," ie., I distinctly recall reading the Electronic Games magazine review of "Orient Express," and subsequently have, on and off, spent the last quarter of a century trying to track down a copy of this game that I, just earlier today, learned never existed.  The other is a link to an online bulletin board, found here:  http://www.atariage.com/forums/lofiversion/index.php/t29295.html
Anyhoo, if someone does have the ability to revamp this article, perhaps this anecdote can somehow be included.  Its an amusing bit of early video game industry history, and it'd be a shame to have it lost in the ether.  Of course, there's probably no question that the significance of this anecdote has become exaggerated in my mind, due to my 25+ year quest to track down a copy of "Murder on the Orient Express."  Sigh. KevinOKeeffe (talk) 23:52, 10 November 2008 (UTC)

Talk:Play (UK magazine)

message: As I pointed out in these this edit summary, , Imagine Publishing is listed as the Publisher by the 2014 ABC certification source . The 2016 last print issue ref  doesn't directly say who the publisher is, but suggests buying it from the online Imagine Shop supporting Imagine Publishing as the publisher. In addition, as I noticed later  both that cover and our cover :File:Play cover small.jpg clearly has an Imagine Publishing logo :File:Imagine Publishing.jpg on it. Looking at our articles, it seems Future plc acquired Imagine in October 2016. So the current digital only edition is I assume published by Future plc. However it's possible Future plc maintained Imagine Publishing as a subbrand, our articles don't clearly specify. If they did, and the digital edition is still published under the sub-brand, while I'm not sure what the guidelines say if anything, to me it seems fair enough just to keep Imagine Publishing as the publisher. Our articles should clarify that Imagine Publishing is now a subbrand of Future plc. If Imagine Publishing has been abandoned as and the current digital one is published directly under the Future plc label then the article needs to reflect both, i.e. that it used to be published under Imagine Publishing until October 2016 or whatever when Future plc acquired Imagine Publishing. (It seems that Imagine was only established in 2005, I assume given it's the oldest Playstation magazine that it's older then that, so it was probably published by someone else too, perhaps Paragon Publishing.) I'd note that this was after the print edition ended, which suggests the print one was published by Imagine to the end hence why the last print source still suggests to buy it from the Imagine Shop etc. Nil Einne (talk) 11:22, 21 October 2019 (UTC)

message: Why quoted? Thanks, --Abdull (talk) 20:41, 30 November 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  "Quoted"? 

message: RFC 2045 states that:
(White Space) Octets with values of 9 and 32 MAY be represented as US-ASCII TAB (HT) and SPACE characters, respectively, but MUST NOT be so  represented at the end of an encoded line.
However, the example you give is:
 If you believe that truth=3Dbeauty, then surely=20=
 mathematics is the most beautiful branch of philosophy.
From what I understand, =20 is only useful to encode a space that is the last of the line, with nothing else following. But you're using a soft line break afterwards (required because the line would be too long, as the whole sentence is more than 76 characters), so there's no need for this =20. Not doing it still respects the rule that a space MUST NOT be represented as a SPACE character at the end of an encoded line.
So for me this is shorter, and correct too:
 If you believe that truth=3Dbeauty, then surely =
 mathematics is the most beautiful branch of philosophy.
This example is also explicitly stated in the RFC 2045:
 Now's the time for all folk to come to the aid of their country.
With the Quoted-Printable encoding, as:
 Now's the time =
 for all folk to come=
  to the aid of their country.
