message: Is there a gaming-related page where general notices can be posted? Or is this the place? (If it isn't, please forgive me . . . .)
I'm hoping a few more folks will weigh in on moving the article Hammer Bro.. Please see Talk:Hammer Bro. for a list of the possible moves, and weigh in. BrianSmithson 02:03, 16 July 2005 (UTC)

thread_title:  Why is the tekken characters category up for deletion? 

message: I nominated Wario for the Improvement Drive, and was wondering if you guys could assist him. He already has four votes, and some more might win it for him. Also, on a note unrelated to the Improvement Drive, I'm attempting to improve some game articles, such as Animal Crossing, Disgaea: Hour of Darkness and The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past to featured article status, and trying to get characters like Kirby to featured article status. -- A Link to the Past 16:10, July 27, 2005 (UTC)
*I can help out with AC and LttP, can't believe I haven't taken a look at the AC page yet. --Pagrashtak 16:21, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

message: I've added a proposal on the stub sorting project page to make some sub-categories for the CVG stub. Anyone with input on the subject, I'll be glad to hear from you. --ADeveria 13:20, 28 July 2005 (UTC)

message: Hi, this is ScarredSun from Sonic the Hedgehog Information Treasury, a wiki dedicated to Sonic the Hedgehog. I just recently stumbled across this WikiProject and was wondering if there was some way that we could help you guys out. I realize that our own focus may be a bit too fancruft for Wikipedia's standards, but we've thrown some stuff back to Wikipedia (for instance, a few sections of the Sega Saturn article), and would like to continue to do so in the future or collaborate on new things.

thread_title:  Help from SHIT? 

message: A followup to Awards - I suggest that we put any 'universal critisisms' into any article that applies. Example (Final Fantasy Tactics Advance):
===Criticisms===
A common criticism of this game is the law system, which is both liked and disliked. Some argue that it keeps the game fresh and original, while others complain that it caused problems, such as getting into a fight with all animals with a law protecting them.
That's a half-assed attempt, and hopefully all of them would be better. Comments? -- A Link to the Past 12:55, August 5, 2005 (UTC)
:Shouldn't criticisms be relevantly indicated in the sections concerned (e.g. in the 'Gameplay' section for complaints related to gameplay), instead of having them all regrouped in one section? Your idea, though, does bring to mind the usual structure of video game reviews, where in most magazines, criticisms of the reviewed game are listed at the end of the article (i.e. in the last paragraph or two). I'm not against the idea, as long as references are noted, and if applicable, linked to. Grumpy Troll 15:35, 5 August 2005 (UTC)

Not working out that great, templates inside of templates. ~ Dread Lord CyberSkull ✎☠ 04:00, 2005 August 11 (UTC)
:Nice job. What do you think about increasing the rating icon pic size? At 12px they are kind of difficult to discern. --anetode╔╝ 11:49, 16 November 2005 (UTC)
