Talk:Soulcalibur II

message: *The names on this page have to be the originally used names (linked to the newly named articles). No-one changed all Prince's previous album covers to feature his symbol instead of his name, and the end credits to Terminal Velocity were not changed when Charlie Sheen wanted to go by the name Charles Sheen. This article isn't anything to do with Soul Calibur III and all information should pertain to the 2002 game; SoulCalibur II. People will find out more information about Seung Mina and how her name changed when they click the blue link that takes them to her page. 86.128.57.200 19:14, 31 May 2006 (UTC)

message: Someone forgot to mention that beginners or "noobs" can beat experienced easily through a random frenzy of button pressing, which was one of the drawbacks of this game...
Just needa few more people to agree...

thread_title: Character Analysis

message: I have just moved all Soul Edge/Calibur character's articles to use the most commonly used name as the article title. After being part of a debate over Street Fighter character article names for over a month, the decision was in agreement of my proposal to use the most common name as the article title and not their full biographical name (this information belongs in the first sentence of the article itself). Please do not move the articles back as this was decided as the correct method for article names. Please see Wikipedia:Mediation_Cabal/Cases/2006-12-21_Street_Fighter_character_articles and Talk:E. Honda for the resaoning. Thanks Mr.bonus 22:21, 24 January 2007 (UTC)
thread_title: Character Article Names

replies: text: Why don't you guys try looking in the trademark database. No trademarks under Soul Calibur can be found, only Soulcalibur. Here's my source: http://tess2.uspto.gov/bin/gate.exe?f=searchss&state=dmp53j.1.1 Type Soulcalibur and you will see a few trademarked names and when you type Soul Calibur you get nothing.

replies: text: I agree. Plus there was a cut and paste move (two birds, one stone). (I'm assuming "you guys" didn't apply to me here... might want to be a bit more specific next time). Sasquatch  t|c 04:08, 26 August 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Naming 

message: The very first hit "Soulcalibur" is for for www.soulcalibur.com/ page named "Soul Calibur 2 - Home" (it's Namco's official, right?). It continues with "Soul Calibur" inside, too. I don't think there's single "Soulcalibur" relating to this game in the entire website.
Also, Google(!) wrote me "Did you mean: "soul calibur II" after I asked for the (nonexsitsing) "soulcalibur II" - go figure. Meaning even google says it's wrong. 
The game was always named "Soul Calibur". Don't go the Orwellian memory hole just because they decided otherwise since the third one (but didn't even change their website regarding the older ones!), and you noticed only recently. 
Fix this and the links. --HanzoHattori 17:38, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: Fair use rationale for Image:SC2Talim33A.jpg

message: This article obviously needs a lot of work, so anything that can be added to it can help. As Necrid only appeared in this one game, he really doesn't hold any weight outside of it. The development information on him can be placed with anything on the console exclusive guest characters. It would work especially well if placed after anything discussing Spawn seeing as the two are connected by their creator. The first paragraph in "Promotion and merchandising" can just be removed, while the part about the figurine can be integrated into a section talking about all five developed for this game. Two praises and two criticisms would probably be enough to take from the reception section. The rest of the article can be condensed and placed over on the character list.

replies: text: Um, TTN? It just passed A-class nomination...--Kung Fu Man (talk) 16:20, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: And? I really doubt whoever looked over it bothered to judge the article by its weight. If it was someone who doesn't edit video game articles, it would be impossible for them to do so. TTN (talk) 16:22, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

text: Just as a quick comparison, you could do pretty much the same thing with any major film character. They always have plenty of development information and there is often twenty times more reception available. The reason that they aren't split is because they don't carry any weight outside of the film. TTN (talk) 16:25, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: That's not true at all. Most of the characters related to this series have next to no feedback for them in published material. You're effectively doing the opposite of that Le Grand Curoix (sp) fellow: "It only appeared in one title, axe it, can't be important". How should that argument fly when "It should have an article if it appeared in more than one game" did?" And I made sure when writing this that WP:N, WP:V and the sources were reliable and supported by other third party material. This is too much, even for you.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 16:28, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: What is that directed towards? My comment was about film characters, not the characters of this series. TTN (talk) 16:30, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: Mine is in general. Since when does a character need more than one appearance in any medium to meet notability?--Kung Fu Man (talk) 16:32, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: This is not about notability. It is about weight. The character's information fits nicely into the article and it does not actually extend from it at all (WP:UNDUE). If it were to not actually fit within the article, that may be a reason to split, but it doesn't as it stands. TTN (talk) 16:36, 13 September 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't think TTN should have any involvement in this discussion. - A Link to the Past (talk) 16:42, 13 September 2008 (UTC)

text: The reception section is made up entirely of comments related to the character being exclusive to a the console versions of the game. That is not notability. It is just undue weight slapped down onto a page instead of being organized correctly. Many of those sources themselves are pretty "meh" also, which really doesn't help things.
