==Computer and video games==
Thanks for responding to my query on the discussion page. Since you obviously have a massive amount of experience with video games, do you have time to help me on the actual computer and video games article? I'm going to start by formulating a much better definition for computer and video games (the opening is redundant right now). I was thinking something like "Computer and video games, formally referred to as interactive entertainment, are recreational devices operated by silicon chip circuitry." However, I'm not the expert that you are, and so I don't know if "recreational devices operated by silicon chip circuitry" is too broad or too narrow for the full scope of computer and video games. Perhaps you could help me formulate a proper definition? Help would be most welcome. Thanks! --] 23:06, 3 October 2006 (UTC)

:I'm not sure what you're referring to. Are you referring to a new article for ] or rewriting the ] article? If it's the former, just word it how you think best and post it. It'll gradually get better over time as people contribute to it. You could even post a link to it on ] for some community involvement.

== Invitation to the Seventh Annual Colorado Wiknic ==
:Or are you suggesting the latter? Personally, I think "Computer and video games, formally referred to as interactive entertainment, are recreational devices operated by silicon chip circuitry" is horrible. But I was a proponent of breaking up the ] article into separate articles (one for video games, which is "any type of game that uses a video display as a primary form of output") which would encompass ] and ]s (which are typically called just "video games" today) and other types of video-output games (e.g. ]s, ]s, etc.). Therefore, the term "video game" would be a superset of "computer game" and "console game", as it should be. I think the whole article ], besides horribly violating Misplaced Pages naming standards, is just a POS article. I even rewrote it according to my discussion above (after getting consensus from the project), but it was reverted, so I gave up.

<b>Who:</b> All Misplaced Pages and other Wikimedia users and their families and friends are invited.


<b>What:</b> ].
::Sorry I took so long to reply to this. I was, in fact, suggesting the latter: I wanted a broad definition because computer and video games is a broad subject. I'm not sure I understand exactly what you wanted to break the article up into; you say "one for video games" and don't give a number two. I do agree that the naming is bad, and ] definitely needs its own article.


<b>When:</b> Sunday afternoon, June&nbsp;25, 2017, from 12:00 to 4:00 pm MDT.
::I'm unsure which is a subset to which: computer games or video games? I think the definition of computer games is ambiguous. When we see "computer" we think of our laptop or desktop PC. Of course, a ] is far broader than that and can be many more things. So is a computer game a ''personal'' computer game or is it ''any'' game played on ''any'' computer (if the latter were the case, would computer game not be synonymous with electronic game)? In the end, a video game is a game played on a computer; the condition being, as you point out, that it uses video display as a primary form of output. Personal computer games would thus qualify as video games, because the monitor is the video display. I just wonder should we separate computer game from personal computer game.


<b>Where:</b> The Wiknic will be held at our home in . Please contact ] for further information or assistance.
::Here's a definition of electronic games, taken straight from the newest edition of Funk & Wagnall's encyclopedia: "GAMES, ELECTRONIC, recreational and social activities requiring an electrical device controlled by one or more microprocessor chips." The same article states that "the games usually involve a computer and a software program, or an electronic game system and an insertable medium." And we both know the condition for a game being a ''video'' game. If we accept all of this, this is how the hierarchy works:

::Electronic games -> computer games (assuming this means games played on ''any'' computer) -> video games (includes console games, ''personal'' computer games, arcade games, plug-and-play TV games, handheld games, etc.)


<b>Sponsors:</b> ] & ]
::I'm interested in revamping this whole article. I've got four books that may be excellent references: ''The Video Game Theory Reader'', ''Tomb Raiders & Space Invaders: Videogame Forms & Contexts'', ''Gaming Essays on Algorithmic Culture'', and ''The Medium of the Video Game''. Plus, I have full access to excellent databases such as LexisNexis Academic and Academic Search Premier. Obviously, it would be ideal to get naming issues sorted first. You being an expert, I hope you're just as interested as I am: two voices carry more weight than one, so we could bring up the naming issues with the CVG Wikiproject. --] 06:02, 12 November 2006 (UTC)

:], your reasoning is sound, and I would like to get this heirarchy resolved, since I brought it up so long ago and it never went anywhere. But the terminilogy turns a lot of people off. Many want to keep calling console games "video games" and vehemently deny that any computer game (a game that is played on a personal computer) could be a "video game," though most are, according to the definion. Another problem is that the ] calls console games "video games" and games played on personal computers "computer games". It's a lot to sort out, and a lot of biases to overcome, but I'm glad someone else sees things the way I do. I hope we can make headway on this issue. What do you suggest we do first? &mdash; ] | ] 01:20, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

== Nomination of ] for deletion ==
<div class="floatleft" style="margin-bottom:0">]</div>A discussion is taking place as to whether the article ''']''' is suitable for inclusion in Misplaced Pages according to ] or whether it should be ].


The article will be discussed at ] until a consensus is reached, and anyone is welcome to contribute to the discussion. The nomination will explain the policies and guidelines which are of concern. The discussion focuses on high-quality evidence and our policies and guidelines.
::Thanks for your interest and I'm glad to have you aboard! As I said, my initial thoughts are to bring this to the CVG WikiProject, though it sounds your previous attempt didn't end well. Based on the hierarchy above, it appears that electronic games and computer games are one and the same (correct me if I'm wrong though). If that's the case, ] should probably redirect to ]. It would seem prudent to add an "other article" template at the top, something like "'Computer game' redirects here. For information about personal computer games, see ]." I think this falls into the argument of accuracy versus popularity: as you point out, even the VG industry calls games played on PCs "computer games."


Users may edit the article during the discussion, including to improve the article to address concerns raised in the discussion. However, do not remove the article-for-deletion notice from the top of the article.<!-- Template:afd-notice --> <span class="smallcaps" style="font-variant:small-caps;">]<sup>]</sup></span> 03:03, 23 October 2017 (UTC)
::Now let us look at ], an official policy at Misplaced Pages. Here, we can see that ] immediately violates the general convention "]:" "in general, only create page titles that are in the singular, unless that noun is always in a plural form in English (such as scissors or trousers)." However, the singular "Computer or video game" is ridiculously awkward, another good reason for separating the two terms. On the other hand, convention dictates that: "Generally, article naming should give priority to what the majority of English speakers would most easily recognize, with a reasonable minimum of ambiguity, while at the same time making linking to those articles easy and second nature. Another way to summarize the overall principle of Misplaced Pages's naming conventions: Names of Misplaced Pages articles should be optimized for readers over editors; and for a general audience over specialists." Our proposal may fail this guideline; however, ] has its own article! This is important because the "Use of 'and'" rule states: "Sometimes two or more closely-related or complementary concepts are most sensibly discussed on a common page rather than a page each." Since personal computer game is ''already'' separated as its own article, and we both know that in common usage "computer game" refers to a PC game, should "computer game" not redirect to "personal computer game" instead of ]? If that's the case, then the "computer and" should be truncated from "video games," which should in turn be made singular. In the end, ] should cover any electronic game (including such games as Ralph Baer's ''Simon''), ] should cover any electronic game that uses a video display as the primary form of output, and ] (of which "computer game" would redirect to) should cover the nuances of PC games. I think that these arguments are logically sound, but of course I would like more input from you before we propose a drastic name change. --] 06:22, 13 November 2006 (UTC)

The history of the ] is all wrong regarding Cinematronics and I don't know what to do about it. The Cinematronics listed is another company orginally formed in San Francisco in the early years of the industry. The Cinemantronics that did Jack 4 and 5, ], and ], was founded later in Santa Cruz, California by David Stafford, Mike Sandige, and Kevin Gliner, and was the one that Maxis purchased. Additionally, Jack 4 (Mac) and Jack 5 were both developed by Eclipse Entertainment (Austin, Texas). I was the producer (developer) for all of these products.

::OK. Well I've read it.

I saw your comments on the Puff the Magic Dragon talk page and I need your help. I removed non-notable and copyrighted material from the article, Puff the Magic Dragon (that 'South East Asia version.') There is only one link to the song beyond Misplaced Pages mirrors, and even on that, it says
'''Copyright © 2003-2007 by Jno Pauraig. All rights reserved.''' Now, when people are going crazy about free use, isn't it taking it up a notch by adding copyrighted , non-notable material (what a combination!) So I removed it. Now, the person who added it is not only making ad hominem attacks on me, on my user talk page, but is also claiming that 'G-d is on his side,' basically, and that I'm wrong for upholding Misplaced Pages policy and that he'll get the admins against me... could you please support my removing it again? I really need back-up in this case.

Invitation to participate in a research

Hello,

The Wikimedia Foundation is conducting a survey of Wikipedians to better understand what draws administrators to contribute to Misplaced Pages, and what affects administrator retention. We will use this research to improve experiences for Wikipedians, and address common problems and needs. We have identified you as a good candidate for this research, and would greatly appreciate your participation in this anonymous survey.

You do not have to be an Administrator to participate.

The survey should take around 10-15 minutes to complete. You may read more about the study on its Meta page and view its privacy statement .

Please find our contact on the project Meta page if you have any questions or concerns.

Kind Regards,

WMF Research Team
