Talk:American McGee's Alice

message: "Although the graphics aren't spectacular by today's standards (the game was released in 2000, and was very elaborate for the year of its make), many of the levels are very clever and creative in design."
I thought this sentence was a little to bias with the spectacular in it so I changed it around.

thread_title:  Editing 

message: This is to help document the long and complex edit history of this section, which has become obscured through past content spinoffs, deletions, and redirects.
This section originally was part of this article
from 2005-01-06 
until 2006-04-22 .
Note that the earliest revisions used the section name "Dark Wonderland" as that was the rumored title of the film project at that time.
After reaching that point the entire section, except for a one-sentence forwarding stub, was
spun off into it's own article.
The movie-article, after several renamings, eventually settled to become Alice (2007 film).
In March 2007 the movie article underwent many substantial edits and cuts to remove all unsourced, unverifiable, or trivia/non-noteworthy information.
Later, as no independent news about the projected film had surfaced for a long time, the movie article was nominated for deletion, see Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Alice (2007 film).
The voting results were a mix between delete and merge back into this article.
Finally on 2007-03-22 
the remaining substance of the spun-off article was once again merged back into this article where it had originally started, and the movie-article was deleted and changed to a redirect here.  So there was almost a year of edit history for the content which is not recorded on this article. -- Dmeranda 18:28, 28 March 2007 (UTC)

message: :Image:Alice in Won.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.
If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:Alice in Won.jpg

message: :The Character Histories section really is too long. Wikipedia isn't an indiscriminate compendium of information. Sure that information might be useful to some, but it's hardly encyclopaedic is it? Ong elvin 12:51, 7 August 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I'm going to severely shorten the Character Histories page. WP:NOT#INFO, WP:NOT#GUIDE, and WP:CVG/GL#Scope_of_information pretty much sum up my rationale. (I love how those three links alone are pretty much all I need when it comes to blanking VG information.) Ong elvin 04:38, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: I think I'll go do the same thing to the weapons section. Ong elvin 04:42, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

text: Combined the Weapons and Powerups sections and renamed them as Gameplay. Removed all information on how to use them as that is not within the scope of Wikipedia. Also removed all information on where to find them' for the same reason. Ong elvin 04:51, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Also want to note that I removed the descriptions for Sanity, Will and Meta-Essence, since they're nothing special as powerups. (Health/Mana restoration items are standard fare in this genre.) Ong elvin 04:53, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Okay, I agree it was too long, but I think some things were deleted without being properly thought through. For instance, I hardly think Alice, the Cheshire Cat, the Caterpillar and the Queen are the only main characters, e.g. the White Rabbit, Hatter, Gryphon and Jabberwock play substantial parts in the game. Shouldn't there at least be information on each of the game's bosses and main helpers? InsidiousTweevle 15:05, 13 September 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Info Blanking 

message: I'm a little disappointed about the lack of info on the game. I looked this page up about two years ago and it had weapons, storyline, etc. Can anyone add more information about the aforementioned, as well as the narrative of the game? for example, do the White Rabbit and Cheshire Cat really die? How does Alice defeat the Queen? Where can the blunderbuss be found - is there only one in the game? Things like that to flesh it out. At the moment it feels like a very superficial article. 202.134.236.126 (talk) 03:29, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Don't forget, this website is more an encyclopedia than a full-detailed guide, and it generally only covers the most important aspects of the game. There is an American McGee's Alice Wiki but it is recently new. Evilgidgit (talk) 12:28, 13 April 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: More info, please?

message: Official site for the sequel has been released: http://www.returnofalice.com

thread_title: Sequel

message: There's talk that After Alice (1999) is based on the game.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Bogorad (talk • contribs) 13:42, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
thread_title:  Move movie references 

message: Care to add that the game has DRM which checks to see that a CD-ROM is in the primary computer CDROM drive which can cause the game to be unplayable due to a fault with this check which results in the error message "Please insert the correct CD-ROM, select ok and restart the application" being displayed.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 203.202.52.99 (talk) 14:09, 9 November 2012 (UTC)
thread_title:  DRM 

message: In the section "Development", we read "... which caused Rogue Entertainment to shut down, another decision which angered American McGee".  But, I cannot find any preceding mention of other things that angered American McGee.  This is probably the result of some deletion and someone who has tracked the evolution of this article needs to fix it.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 96.237.238.223 (talk) 12:33, 19 June 2014 (UTC)
