Talk:24: The Game

message: What about the card game where you try to get the card's numbers to add up to 24? Should there be a disambig tag at the start of this to clarify? Lenoxus 17:36, 14 May 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I can't help but agree.  I did a search for "24 (game)" expecting to find an article on the card game, not a video game.  Shy 14:51, 4 June 2006 (UTC)

thread_title: Card game?

message: I completely removed the entire character section - it's completely un-needed. If someone wants a description on the characters, they should go to one of the 24 articles, or gamefaqs. As it was, it was completely cluttering up the article. Feel free to challenge me on this. +Falcon9x5 08:14, 3 July 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: I was considering it, but then looked at the section  again. There's no way I'm readding the characters in their previous form - the information was just taken out of an instruction booklet or something. Perhaps the characters names, but definitely not the summaries - "Jack will stop at nothing to make sure not only Los Angeles, but also the rest of the United States is safe from terrorism." Not happening. +Falcon9x5 08:28, 5 July 2006 (UTC)
thread_title: Clean Up

message: I've had a stab at improving the tone of this entry, seeing as it's flagged as not being 'up to standard'.
I've gone through and cleaned up a number of typos and grammatical errors, as well as just generally trying to make it sound a bit more professional. I've left the section on the NTSC glitch pretty much untouched, as I don't own a copy of the game and therefore am not sure exactly what it refers to. 
Anyway, hope it's up to scratch. Thanks to everyone who's contributed to this entry already. Long live 24!
BTW, this is my first contribution, so if I've stuffed anything up then please go easy on me!

thread_title:  General tidy up/ proofing 

message: I've tidied up the section on 'Glitches' to make it a bit more reader-friendly. I've avoided changing the content as I don't actually own the game so i'm not entirely sure what it's talking about! This said, can someone with a copy of the game have a read through it just to make sure that it still makes sense? cheers

thread_title:  Tidied up 'Glitches' section 

message: The article notably covers the story elements of the game and very significantly (IMO) glosses over the gameplay. I'd like to expand that section, however briefly, if that's not an issue for anyone. Also, regarding the bonus features... when you unlock a bonus character, is all you're doing unlocking a 3d look at at the model? Seems kinda pointless. TheHYPO 22:28, 31 August 2006 (UTC)
replies: text: Speaking of the Bonus Features, how exactly do I view them? I've unlocked several of them, but I don't know how to view them. I know it's under "Previously on 24..."  Cubs Fan 08:28, 14 January 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: If anyone knows what Adrenaline actually does (I've never used it), can then add it under the part about health packs and such. Thanks TheHYPO 00:28, 1 September 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Hour By Hour 

message: This article is one of thousands on Wikipedia that have a link to YouTube in it.  Based on the External links policy, most of these should probably be removed.  I'm putting this message here, on this talk page, to request the regular editors take a look at the link and make sure it doesn't violate policy.  In short: 1. 99% of the time YouTube should not be used as a source. 2. We must not link to material that violates someones copyright.  If you are not sure if the link on this article should be removed, feel free to ask me on my talk page and I'll review it personally.  Thanks. ---J.S (t|c) 06:56, 7 November 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Take Note 

message: I'm not sure if this article is still active/in edit, but I've enclosed some suggestions on how to improve it.
* Lead paragraph - I'd end this after the sentence ending 2K Games
* Structure & Gameplay - bring this to the top of the article below the lead paragraph, introducing the style of play. Try to cut down on gaming jargon and game-specific terminology, instead focusing on the styles of play and how they are used. I'd also consider condensing this section to improve how it reads, leaving out facts which don't add to the description. This section also needs citations. Add an in-game screenshot if available.
* Storyline and plot section needs to be rewritten to change it from a list of bullet points to descriptive prose
* Characters - Adjust this, breaking out of a table and instead listing the main characters and highlighting their involvement in the storyline (antagonist, protagonist etc).
* Features - Many of these can be added to the Structure and Gameplay section. Do that and see what's left oer and see if it warrants an additional section.
* Reviews - See if this can be expanded to discuss the game's reception and critical acclaim. Mention the bafta award here. Explain what critics liked about the game and what they thought was novel, or what wasn't well recieved about it.
The content is definately there, but it needs work to improve. if you need any further information, please shout either here on my talk page. If you need any help, just ask. Gazimoff (talk) 22:00, 2 March 2008 (UTC)

thread_title:  Clean-up Sugestions 

message: If this article is already an A-class article, then it shouldn't be under GA review. Noble Story (talk) 12:13, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: No, it is OK for an A-class article to have a GA review and it is OK for an article to be both A-class and GA.  --Kaypoh (talk) 13:04, 28 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Eh, do you mind showing me where it says that? No offense to you, I just want to see. In any case, if an article is already is an A-class article, then why would you want it to be an A-class article? A-class articles are judged according to the FA criteria, which is a higher standard than GA. So if it's already passed at A-class review, it'll  be pretty sure to pass GA as well.
