Talk:StarCraft

I think it would be an advantage to add a bit of strategy and counter strategies, specific to the races in this game.

Um.
In my opinion, it's only a skeleton. No offense intended, but the spulling grammar and in this guide is horrible and not up to wikibooks standards, and apart from that there are glaring ommissions which any real SC player would have put in. (Hell, I don't even play b.net and this looks like Swiss Cheese to me.) Gimme some time and i'll fix it up good. I got a few weeks and nothing better to do. -Li-aung 'Littleweseth' Yip

 * Lol. I constructed the above biting reply to your comment completely from your own words. Before you make any more changes to StarCraft Wikibooks, first prove that your grammar and spelling isn't horrible. --Yunzhong Hou 02:52, 7 May 2006 (UTC)

you mean "aren't horrible"... not that they are

Boot Camp for Starting a major StarCraft WikiBooks Revision
I am going to make a massive edit on this book, transwikifying in the pages that I have created in WikiPedia. --Yunzhong Hou 14:29, 8 February 2006 (UTC)

Well, here's my promised revision...at long last. I made some grammar changes, stylistic alterations, detail refinements, template repairs, and even a redirect for the StarCraft:Basics page because it fit well with the main page, titled Home. Now all of the links are working, the pages allow for further expansion, and things look neater. We still need to break the Strategy page into several separate ones, since looking at so many words on a single page can be quite daunting. Yunzhong Hou 22:39, 24 April 2006 (UTC)


 * You should be aware that Wikibooks is moving away from hosting computer gameplay guides. You might want to read Comments from the President of the Wikimedia Foundation. It is likely that this StarCraft book will move from Wikibooks to a different wiki.


 * Personally, I think that major problem was that most of our computer and video game guides were dumps of rejected Wikipedia content, and most of the best content was on Wikipedia; compare Doom with Wikipedia:Category:Doom. Instead of making good texts about computer and video games, users were only adding content that violated policies on Wikipedia. --Kernigh 03:34, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

 * Do we need all these redirects? A "Starcraft" to StarCraft redirect might be useful, but the others seem unnecessary. --Kernigh 03:34, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

Phase I Nearing Completion
I would like to take the time to congratulate all the contributors to the Starcraft Wikibook for all of your dedicated work on this project. Currently, most of the pages have at least 2 kb worth of information, although many open links remain. Once we have something for every page, we will enter Phase II, which is basically an elaboration of existing pages, adding details/examples, and inclusion of higher-level tactics/strategies.

Font Changes
I've recently instated a lot of font changes on the Home Page for StarCraft. Tell me what you think of it. Also, see if you can find a way to change the background to black, add SC logos, change the font to the actual Starcraft one (and not Eurostile, which is only similar), and make the links all green. Thank you for your help.
 * Personally, I think it looks awful, and would much prefer the "standard" MediaWiki style. --24.147.9.40 03:09, 12 June 2006 (UTC)


 * agreed, it looks AWFUL
 * It offends my eyes. 72.73.33.64 07:02, 23 June 2006 (UTC)

Critical
OK Jchanhm, I realize you want to be a major participant in StarCraft Wikibooks. Thanks for your contributions. (and thanks for your contributions, everyone else!). However, we should maintain the table of contents as up to date as possible, and that means we stop using a separate table of contents from the navibar. Starcraft at Wikipedia already uses navibar templates en masse, and it really works better. Plus, no one really uses the main page after the first view, and scrolling down gets annoying. The synchronization is also burdensome.

Additionally, I have decided to put an end to the crisis of 'contributors'. From now on it will be in alphanumeric order, and IP addresses will be excluded.

Thank you in advance for your cooperation. Yunzhong Hou 22:02, 18 July 2006 (UTC)

Transwikiing
I am slowly copying the info in this book over to StarCraft (rearranging the content as I go). If you would like to contribute to the guide, please join us. -- Prod-You 07:00, 21 January 2007 (UTC)
