message: * Seems like the box art says skate. but pretty much everyone that mentions the game in prose or as a title calls it skate, Skate or SKATE exclusively (no period).  This includes EA (the game's publisher) and the official website of the game: .  See also, IGN, GameSpy, and GameStop.  To further complicate things, xbox.com calls it skate.: .  Seems like the common convention is not to name it with the period, so this page should be moved.  Thoughts? Oren0 17:28, 12 September 2007 (UTC)

message: I was wondering if it were appropriate to put in a trivia section that the loading screen has the number 4, 8, 15, and 16 all in order. I know we shouldn't do it unless there was proof that it was an intentional reference and I wouldn't know where to go for that. Any thoughts?--Johnnyreb 14:29, 21 October 2007 (UTC)

replies: text: I haven't seen a reliable source that says there will be a .skate 2.  Even then, it may not have enough information for the game for a separate page.  --MASEM 17:58, 19 March 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I did create one but it has been trashed and now when you search skate 2 it goes to skate. Details are coming in, teasers are being released, let me go create the page again. -- ZookPS3 (talk) 18:56, 20 May 2008 (UTC)

text: I think the Skate 2 section is getting pretty long, time for a the new game to get its own page (or at least very close) Racer x124 (talk) 22:07, 31 July 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The newly created Skate 2 article seems mostly accurate accept for one thing. The release date section seems to be off. The fact that the game could come out in November is a slim possibility but, If it's true I want to see proof. FortWhatever (talk) 01:38, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

thread_title: Old talk

message: While the title of the game must be capitalized per the manual of style, the period at the end of it is missing for apparently no reason. This is how the game is referred to by the developer, thus we should name the page Skate. to reflect that. (At that point, we might as well use the  tag, I guess)Chris Picone! 03:45, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: yeah everywhere its referred as Skate.(with a period)  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Estemshorn (talk • contribs) 08:40, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

text: The MOS also states that we ignore unnecessary symbols that may be used in the commercial name that would lead to confusion; the period in "skate." would make it difficult to recognize the end of sentences and is also extraneous.  We can note that the game is listed on the cover as "skate." but we have to stick to "Skate" for the rest of ithe discussion. --MASEM 13:14, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, the thing is that skate. is actually its name. Just like .NET is actually the name of Microsoft's service, skate. is the actual name of the game, according to the developers (in more than just marketing, I'll get some sources. While it makes sense to omit the period an capitalize within the article, shouldn't the name of the article itself have the period? Chris Picone! 20:36, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: A preceding period is not going to cause the same confusion in sentence structure as a trailing period.  It is also purely decorative (.NET is vocalized as "dot NET", while "skate." is just "skate".  --MASEM 21:45, 28 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Change name to Skate. 

message: I don't think there has been enough coverage or information released about Skate 2 to justify it's own article. Currently, the bulk of the article is made up of a list of skater and the soundrack, both of which I feel are not particularly notable. It would be much better to have a Sequel or Skate 2 section here for the time being, at least until more notable details are available.

replies: text: i disagree. you could add a section onto skate about a sequel, and link it to here... but thats it.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Estemshorn (talk • contribs) 14:33, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Why? Like I said, the soundtrack list is WP:TRIVIA and the list of skaters is unencylopedic and both sections should be removed. That leave so little information that it doesn't justify an article. ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 14:50, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

replies: text: Don't list them, wikipedia is not a game guide or indiscriminate list of information. Thanks! Fin©™ 18:27, 2 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Well, they did in THP8 article and I think people, me as well, would like to know what songs are on there.--Sebastien. (talk) 18:50, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: The fact that people may find it useful is not enough reason to have it in the article. Like Falcon said above, Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information. The game's soundtrack is not particularly notable. Normally, to be considered notable, something would need to have received coverage from independant reliable sources. For example, if there was something particlularly interesting about the soundtrack which had been discussed in articles on gaming websites. That is not the case here. The soundtrack is pretty standard for a game of this type. I would suggest the same is true of THP8 and the information shouldn't be listed there either. But I see that it was only added recently and probably just hadn't been spotted yet. ChimpanzeeUK - User | Talk | Contribs 19:19, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
