Talk:Buzz Aldrin's Race Into Space

message: I've gutted a very very large portion of the content of this page as rather bad violations of WP:NOR, WP:NOTGUIDE, WP:NOTADVOCATE, WP:NPOV, WP:FAN and more. This article desperately needs to be rewritten per the guidelines at WP:VG/GL. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 08:33, 13 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Complete rewrite 

message: I've changed the release dates in the article to correspond to what I've found in reliable sources. The README shipped with the original floppy version (1.0) has March 11 1993 as a dateline. However, to corroborate this date, there's also an Interplay press release dated April 29 1993 announcing the game's release.
I'm not sure where the 1992 release year came from. It might be a simple mistake (other websites have dates ranging from 1992 to 1995), the year that development finished and Strategic Visions sent the completed game to Interplay, or maybe an early projected release date seen in video game publications (I know Computer Gaming World had BARIS on the cover of its December 1992 issue).
1994 is less certain for the CD-ROM release, but it's based on the article in COMPUTE! and the information on Amazon. Unfortunately, the CD-ROM's README wasn't nearly as helpful, nor does there appear to have been a press release announcing it. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 17:44, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Having just read parts of the BARIS Companion, pages 344-347, I feel extremely confident that the floppy release didn't come until early 1993, and that the CD-ROM release wasn't until sometime in 1994. —/Mendaliv/2¢/Δ's/ 23:51, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Release dates 

message: The article is not going to be suitable for C-class promotion until the absent reception section is built, at the very least, though a development section would also be desirable. Here's some suggestions:
*The article lead is something to focus on when all the other sections have been built as much as possible, currently the lead is big enough for a large article, yet this one is missing those two sections mentioned above. 
*Since you've dug up all the sources you can, just do what you can to build as large a relevant reception section as possible.
*Gameplay is uncited.
*Are two separate sub-headings needed for 'planning' and 'mission' phases? Unless you are going to considerably increase what's in each, they're breaking the flow for no reason. They're both gameplay after all.
*The 'Versions' heading is redundant, I would create a section called 'development' or 'development and release', and leave that information at the end of that section.
This is an interesting subject and the article is shaping up well, I'm looking forward to seeing the results of your work. Please resubmit the article to assessment when you'd like another appraisal, thanks for what you've done so far. Someoneanother 14:10, 28 August 2008 (UTC)
