Quake

A game as important as Quake should have a page that can be read by anyone, as non-Quake players will still have heard of it and want to know more from an encyclopedia. The page needs a general clean-up and reorganisation I think and I believe that there are enough dedicated Quake fans out there to do this justice Coyote-37 12:12, 27 July 2005 (UTC)

As someone who has never ever played any Quake game before in his life (and only limited amounts of FPS experience): intro sounds a tiny bit POV, and focuses on technical achievements with few wikilinks. "plot" might go to the intro, and I think the paragraph on "network play" can go too unless it's specifically important to Quake; the subject itself deserves a whole other article. "The game itself can be heavily modified and due to it's popularity," sounds like cause and effect is backwards; it's heavily modifiably by design, and design comes before popularity. Section on mods looks good. Mention of "previews.ck1" and the corresponding "little-known piece of PC gaming history" needs to die a horrible fancrufty death. Mentions of specific levels in the "ports" section could probably go. Link to Speedrun should be earlier in its section. Rest looks good.

Long story short, plot and a mention of network play can go to the intro, the technical achievements should be given their own section, and "previews.ck1" must die. Nifboy 00:47, 30 July 2005 (UTC)
