message: Hello. User:playstationdude recently went around adding Template:playstationp to many articles. As many of you will be aware, project templates should be added to talk pages rather than to articles themselves. I've notified Playstationdude of this, and I have reverted a few of the additions myself. I would revert more, but I don't have time currently, so if some of you could pick up where I left off, that would be great. I understand Playstationdude was probably adding the template in good faith, and is just a new user, so I apologise if I perhaps could have worded this a bit nicer. --Dreaded Walrus 21:58, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Ah, it appears that during my typing of that last message, Playstationdude has taken note of the message I left on his talk page and has began moving the templates over to the talk pages rather than leaving them on the articles. :) --Dreaded Walrus 22:00, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I tried incorporating the  template so that a warning would display if the  template was added in the main namespace, but I don't think it worked. Do you know what I may have done wrong? Dancter 23:39, 14 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I noticed that earlier, myself. I think you probably know a bit more about templates and things than me, but having a look at another template, it appears that that template has a working "check talk" style check, as can be seen in this test "preview" screenshot I took. Perhaps it should be placed at the top of the template, before other things? I would experiment with this a bit more, but I am tired right now. Perhaps when I awake. --Dreaded Walrus 00:05, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm not sure it matters much, anymore. It was intended primarily as a cautionary measure in anticipation of Playstationdude. Obviously it didn't accomplish that. I've attempted a workaround based on the template you showed, but it's not very robust, and will break in the event of a template rename. It's good practice for template writing, though. Dancter 01:33, 15 April 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yeah... Well, the important thing/s are that firstly, the template doesn't seem to be on any articles anymore. Secondly, if someone does put it on an article, they will notice, hopefully. Thirdly, and most importantly, playstationdude realised his mistake, and mostly reverted every change he made. It's an easy mistake to make, and he's new to Wikipedia it seems, so nothing is lost, really. :) --Dreaded Walrus 08:30, 15 April 2007 (UTC)

thread_title:  A funny thing you guys forgot 

message: Okay some user known as Silver Edge deleted some of the following text from the article introduction of PlayStation 2:
Before edit: "Released little more than a year after the Sega Dreamcast and a year before its main competitors Microsoft Xbox and Nintendo GameCube, the PS2 is part of the sixth generation of video game consoles. It is the most dominant and commercially successful, best selling home console in video game history, with over 120 million units shipped worldwide by May 2007".
Okay? Now after Silver Knight edited it: "Released little more than a year after the Sega Dreamcast and a year before its main competitors Microsoft Xbox and Nintendo GameCube, the PS2 is part of the sixth generation of video game consoles. As of March 2007, 117.89 million PS2 units has been shipped worldwide". 
The problem is that the source is a little old (March 2007) so he has changed it according to that. But the thing I find wrong is getting rid of the whole "It is the most dominant and commercially successful, best selling home console in video game history" sentence. We all know it is, he has stated that the source does not cite this. So I moved it to the paragraph above but again he got rid of it for a reason I am not sure of and in his edit summary has written "PS2 has only shipped 117 units not sold 100 million" or something like that which I was also confused about. Most introductory paragraphs in articles say, for example, for James Brown have this: 
commonly referred to as "The Godfather of Soul" and "The Hardest Working Man in Show Business," was an American entertainer recognized as one of the most influential figures in 20th century popular music. He was renowned for his shouting vocals, feverish dancing and unique rhythmic style,
Brown began his professional music career in 1953 and rose to fame during the late 1950s and early 1960s on the strength of his thrilling live performances and string of smash hits. In spite of various personal problems and setbacks, he continued to score hits in every decade through to the 1980s. In addition to his acclaim in music, Brown was a presence in American political affairs during the 1960s and 1970s, noted especially for his activism on behalf of fellow African Americans and the poor. During the early 1980s, Brown's music helped to shape the rhythms of early hip hop music, with many groups looping or sampling his funk grooves and turning them into what became hip hop classics and the foundations of this music genre.
etc, etc you get the idea, and no citations for any of that. So why should he get rid of that sentence from PlayStation 2's article. We all know it is the  most successful console in history, so what's up?
Please reply and discuss on this page. After numerous undos to his edit and his to mine, I have given up and need help guys. Discuss here and take it from there. Thanks. I hope this gets cleared up. —Preceding unsigned comment added by JTBX (talk • contribs) 17:18, 13 September 2007
:The difference between shipped and sold can be massive and is used by companies to sort of bend the truth. Explanation: Sold is simple it means consoles purchased by the likes of you and me. Shipped on the other hand means consoles that have left the factory and are currently somewhere in the supply chain between the factory door and you putting your money on the counter to buy one.they could be anywhere, in a warehouse, in the storeroom at your local shop, in a truck or even on a ship in the middle of the Pacific. So Sony, Microsoft et al get to boast about something they have, and at the same time haven't really, achieved. - X201 08:18, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As for Silver edge's edits I think he/she was correct. Take the sales figures out of the sentence in question and you're left with "It is the most dominant and commercially successful, ... in video game history" and that is a statement that needs a citation, the list of shipping figures doesn't support that claim. The NES could be called the most dominant when it shut out all competition in the US or Atari 2600 when it had virtually zero competition. Phrases like that can't just be added to Wikipedia they would fall squarely under the requirements of WP:OR and WP:CITE - X201 08:41, 14 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Yes I already know the difference between shipped and sold, but the PS2 has sold over one million units, but what I am trying to say is why that sentence of it being the most dominant and successful console (which it is) has been removed. JTBX 20:26, 16 September 2007 (UTC)

message: As you may have heard, we at the Wikipedia 1.0 Editorial Team recently made some changes to the assessment scale, including the addition of a new level.  The new description is available at WP:ASSESS.
*The new C-Class represents articles that are beyond the basic Start-Class, but which need additional references or cleanup to meet the standards for B-Class.  
*The criteria for B-Class have been tightened up with the addition of a rubric, and are now more in line with the stricter standards already used at some projects.  
*A-Class article reviews will now need more than one person, as described here.  
Each WikiProject should already have a new C-Class category at :Category:C-Class_articles.  If your project elects not to use the new level, you can simply delete your WikiProject's C-Class category and clarify any amendments on your project's assessment/discussion pages.  The bot is already finding and listing C-Class articles. 
Please leave a message with us if you have any queries regarding the introduction of the revised scheme.

message: I was thinking about going through all of the articles on the List of PlayStation Network games and standardising all of the 'Media' entries in the info boxes. Currently, there's not really a standard and they include 'Download', 'Digital download', 'PlayStation Store download', 'PlayStation Store', etc. I wanted to try and form a consensus here before I went ahead and did it to avoid having loads of edits reverted by people who don't agree! I think 'PlayStation Store download' would be best as it is most descriptive and provides a link to the PlayStation Store article for readers who are unfamiliar with it. I know it's not really a big deal but does anyone have any opinions on this? Cheers. ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 08:12, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Be careful, because you'd be conflicting with the consensus that was already reached at WP:VG. The MoS there WP:VG/GL states that all download services should be listed as Download. Seeing as any changes will affect/conflict with WP:VGs MoS you should really ask members of WP:VG for their opinions as well. - X201 (talk) 09:28, 4 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Ahh, thanks. Didn't know about that. I'll probably just change them all to 'Download' then. No point starting up a new discussion if a consensus has already been reached. Thanks. ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 11:26, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

message: Wikipedia 0.7 is a collection of English Wikipedia articles due to be released on DVD, and available for free download, later this year. The Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team has made an automated selection of articles for Version 0.7.
We would like to ask you to review the articles selected from this project. These were chosen from the articles with this project's talk page tag, based on the rated importance and quality. If there are any specific articles that should be removed, please let us know at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.7. You can also nominate additional articles for release, following the procedure at Wikipedia:Release Version Nominations. 
A list of selected articles with cleanup tags, sorted by project, is available. The list is automatically updated each hour when it is loaded. Please try to fix any urgent problems in the selected articles. A team of copyeditors has agreed to help with copyediting requests, although you should try to fix simple issues on your own if possible. 
We would also appreciate your help in identifying the version of each article that you think we should use, to help avoid vandalism or POV issues. These versions can be recorded at this project's subpage of User:SelectionBot/0.7. We are planning to release the selection for the holiday season, so we ask you to select the revisions before October 20. At that time, we will use an automatic process to identify which version of each article to release, if no version has been manually selected. Thanks!

I'd like to draw your attention to the new WikiProject coordinators' working group, an effort to bring both official and unofficial WikiProject coordinators together so that the projects can more easily develop consensus and collaborate.  This group has been created after discussion regarding possible changes to the A-Class review system, and that may be one of the first things discussed by interested coordinators.
All designated project coordinators are invited to join this working group.

message: Version 0.8 is a collection of Wikipedia articles selected by the Wikipedia 1.0 team for offline release on USB key, DVD and mobile phone.  Articles were selected based on their assessed  importance and quality, then article versions (revisionIDs) were chosen for trustworthiness (freedom from vandalism) using an adaptation of the WikiTrust algorithm.
We would like to ask you to review the PlayStation articles and revisionIDs we have chosen. Selected articles are marked with a diamond symbol (♦) to the right of each article, and this symbol links to the selected version of each article. If you believe we have included or excluded articles inappropriately, please contact us at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8 with the details.  You may wish to look at your WikiProject's articles with cleanup tags and try to improve any that need work; if you do, please give us the new revisionID at Wikipedia talk:Version 0.8. We would like to complete this consultation period by midnight UTC on Monday, October 11th.
We have greatly streamlined the process since the Version 0.7 release, so we aim to have the collection ready for distribution by the end of October, 2010.  As a result, we are planning to distribute the collection much more widely, while continuing to work with groups such as One Laptop per Child and Wikipedia for Schools to extend the reach of Wikipedia worldwide.  Please help us, with your WikiProject's feedback!

I think it may be a good idea to rename the category about PS1 to "Category:PlayStation 1", and use the old category, as the main Playstation category. Or there may be other better ways to name the categories. If anyone feels this is needed please discuss and then action this yourself. Thanks.Imgaril (talk) 18:26, 24 September 2011 (UTC)

thread_title:  List of PlayStation 3 Video Games. 

message: Discuss it here Sorry for my plain English in advance. It's about the PS3 game - The Last of Us, I will cut through it. So as I was reading plot, I noticed that some of the key locations' names are missing or put off deliberately. So I added the name of the rendezvous point of Joel, Tess and Ellen with a group of fireflies, to whom they need to deliver Ellen, as cargo. But that edit was reverted with a reason: that it's irrelevant. I think it's pretty relevant to the story, and it will help easier to understand what part of the game you're reading as you recall moments from the game. Without these key names - like US capitol, bridge - you will just have to read from the beginning of the plot in order not to lose track, though there are still some heads ups in the current plot wording - but still, it certainly wouldn't hurt to have at least some key names mentioned, considering they were excited to get to US Capitol and a bit of drama happened there - Tess died while buying up some time for Joel and Ellen.
