message: Does anyone else think the protagonists/antagonists classification for the characters section is not adequate for this article? If you pay attention, the story behind Deus Ex is too complex to divide the characters between "good guys" and "bad guys". Now, I know the protagonist/antagonist literary definition is a little more wider than that (just check their respective articles), but for a situation like this it just won't do right. I belive a classification between "main characters" and "secondary characters" would be more appropriate. That of course would ask for a different sorting of characters, but that's alright. Any opinions? I feel like fixing it right now. – Mackeriv 20:07, 23 Jun 2004 (UTC)

text: OK, as the person who put that there, I see in hindsight that it was a bit simplistic. I think either a "primrary/secondary characters" list or prehaps a list by organization (UNATCO, NSF, Illuminati) would be better. Although I see that an organization list might be just as useless as some character's alingments are sort of fluid. So a main/secondary list might be better. Or maybe none... I just thought that the block list could have done with some categorizing. I'll take them out altogether and it can be resorted later if it's worth it. TPK 02:13, 5 Jul 2004 (UTC)

message: Does anyone else think the External Links section is absurdly big? Seriously, I've never seen an article with a links section as big as that one. That's just too much, and it's full of links to sites that don't even need to be there. Just unnecessary clutter. Things like conspiracy theory links certainly don't belong there. Even less when there are other articles that already deal with that kind of subject.
:I say we should keep the links that are really related to Deus Ex only, and from those, the most important ones. – Kaonashi 03:38, 29 Sep 2004 (UTC)

replies: text: I don't know about her accent, but you can check Deus Ex's official website. Take a look at the Art section. She's indeed Israeli. – Kaonashi 01:36, 6 Oct 2004 (UTC)

text: She's a Russian-born Israeli, probably. There are plenty of those. --80.178.227.147 17:27, 3 Jan 2005 (UTC)

message: I believed that some of the character bios were curt and mistargeted.  While some, like JC and Paul were given excellent treatment, a description of Sam Carter as a (paraphrase) "quartermaster that will supply you with weapons sometimes" is short, but far more importantly, written from the point of view of a "tips and tricks" website.  This is embodied especially with the use of the second person, which makes the assumption that the reader is playing Deus Ex and looking for advice.
On that note, I expanded and reworded the entires for Reyes, Carter, Tong, and Jock to reflect more of the depth of character that the first half of the article claimed, as well as giving them a treatment from a point of view outside the assumption that "the reader is JC."

message: I want to say that it's really a pleisure to see that someone decided to create this article... maybe one day I'll translate it in the Italian wikipedia.
I think that Deus ex could be the best game I ever played.
Although the second chapter(Invisible war) is not as good as the first.

message: How come there is nothing about the characters in Deus ex?, And every search or link to a Deus Ex character just redirects to this page?
