Talk:The Gathering (LAN party)

message: I will remove the text about TG being the worlds largest computer party. Here is some text from www.dreamhack.org:
Worlds largest LAN-party, DreamHack Winter 2004 was certified by Guinness World Records and Twin Galaxies as the world's largest LAN party with 5852 computers simultaneously connected to the network. [and 5272 attendees]. bbx 08:58, 26 October 2005 (UTC)
thread_title:  Worlds largest 

message: Shouldn't this be moved to The Gathering (demo party) or The Gathering (computer party)? The official name is The Gathering.toresbe 09:09, 3 September 2006 (UTC)

message: :Image:TG06 DarkSideOfPluto Final.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 this Wikipedia article 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. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  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 lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:TG06 DarkSideOfPluto Final.jpg

message: The article says it's the world largest computer party, but how is a computer party different than a LAN party (Computer party redirects to LAN party)? According to the article, it has some 5200 visitors every year.
Now, last DreamHack Winter (2010) had 12,754 computers and 13,608 visitors. Now I don't understand how 5200 can in any way be larger than 13,608? This, of course, is if computer party is something really different than LAN party, but I don't think it is, because it redirects to LAN party? --193.11.163.169 (talk) 15:32, 1 November 2011 (UTC)
thread_title:  Still world largest? 

message: Sure, some parts are informative, but this whole article reeks of biased views, obviously written by someone involved in the event... like the following found in the table over the names of events and their descriptions:
2012 - “At the end of the universe” - The Gathering 2012 will take you to places you’ve yet to experience.
Yeah... someone should make a throughout check on this article... / TheDront (talk) 00:51, 3 August 2012 (UTC)
