message: The "Overview" looks like it writen by a 12 year-old, It's probably best just to delete the whole thing and copy and paste the filler description from Bethesda's webpage untill someone
rewrites it.

message: I just got this game and I think theres a bug, because my characters all move backwards slowly and glitch forward even slower! is this just mine?--Daniel Berwick 01:04, 29 March 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: It might not just be yours, but it's not a universal bug, since this is the first time I've heard of it.  Probably doesn't need to go into the article. VoidTalker 16:46, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

message: The overview section requires a spoiler warning as it gives details of plot ending and twists... I don't know much about editing but I'll give it a go myself, will probably need cleaning up after though anyway

replies: text: The thing is, a spoiler tag isn't needed. This isn't a game site, it's an encyclopedia - we are supposed to cover everything, whether that means including "spoilers" or not.  The Wikipedia:Content disclaimer says as much. An article on a game has to discuss some aspects of gameplay, characters, and plot details - this is the expected norm, not something that needs a warning tag.  — Carl (CBM · talk) 06:01, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text:  I agree.  I note that the tag was placed in the overview.  Obviously it will give details, because this is an encyclopedia.  Generally speaking the spoiler tag is redundant if it appears to flag something where one would expect to find it.--Tony Sidaway 09:55, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I used wikipedia a lot in past to get information about books and such. Every time there were spoilers in article, they were flagged. I expected similar here and was dissapointed with lack of it. Simple "spoilers below" would be enough. (83.142.223.24 17:14, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

text:  I expect spoilers in a Plot section, not in an Overview section. I came on here to learn more about the game as I was considering buying it, and now the ending has been spoiled. JovBlackheart (talk) 13:15, 15 September 2008 (UTC)

message: I have a copy of Shivering Isles (including Knights of the Nine) for the XBox 360 in front of me, and it says it was published by Ubisoft, not 2K games. Could somebody look into this? --Muna (talk) 11:56, 28 December 2007 (UTC)

message: First sentence of the second paragraph in Production, release, and availability
"Originally, the Xbox Live Marketplace release of Shivering Isles was scheduled for March 27, 2007, but an unscheduled Xbox Live maintenance was announced and the launch day was moved forward to March 26, 2007."  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.99.200.168 (talk) 02:05, 29 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: "Moved forward", as in "moved closer to the present". If it had been moved "backward", it would perhaps have been released on March 28? Or March 29? Or in 2009? So yeah, happy Xbox campers got their Isles a day early. The cite reads, in part: "The game was originally scheduled tomorrow, but "the team" (they're related to the "Top Men" we always hear about) were able to get the game up early."

message: I understand that this may be irrelivant, but light armour is made for scout-type people or archers. So, comparing the Amber armour to the Madness Ore armour is, in my opinion, like comparing a dune buggy to a tank.Blade Kassan (talk) 02:29, 6 February 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Light/ Heavy Armour comparisons 

message: Excuse me, but I've just read just under the article title:
"The player becomes Sheogorath's protégé, and together they try to defeat Court of Madness, Jyggalag, thus preventing the isles from being destroyed".
The Court of Madness is faction of both Lord Sheogorath and PC, thus, saying that they together try to defeat Court of Madness means that they are fighting with themselves. Sheogorath and PC are trying to defeat the Grey March caused by the shifting of the "old" Sheogorath into his true Jyggalag form and prevent this shifting in the first place.

thread_title:  A plot mistake 

message: Edited the sentence "As with the original game and the first expansion, Knights of the Nine, The Shivering Isles is an example of open-ended or sandbox-style gameplay also known as a RPG or role playing game." A sandbox game is not the same as an RPG.Optimus Sledge (talk) 11:50, 10 February 2010 (UTC)

thread_title:  Failure 

message: Please note that if this article were to go to FAC with no changes save the copyedit that was just requested, I will oppose it as being incomplete.
Shivering Isles, unlike KotN, saw the creation and addition of dozens of new enemy types, set pieces, inventory items, and locations. The art style was a major break from the main game, limiting resource sharing. In short, there was a ton of resources put into this expansion, much more than most game expansions and DLCs see.
That there is no discussion of the artistic style, no discussion of the difference in tone between the main game and the expansion, and no discussion on the amount of resources that went into the development of the expansion is unacceptable. I think you're leaving a gaping hole in the article, and I'm not afraid to call you out on it. 
I'm actually rather surprised that this made GA with so much missing. 
Sorry, but at least I'm letting you know ahead of time. Sven Manguard Wha? 07:51, 7 August 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: I have removed the GOCE copy-edit request: the requestor is on a one monthe block, and the article is in apparent need of extensive work (a GAR has also been offered as one outcome). Once the work is completed, or if the GAR feels a ce is appropriate, please feel free to replace it on the GOCE requests list. Chaosdruid (talk) 22:33, 8 August 2011 (UTC)
