Army Men: Team Assault Page

I am not new to wikipedia. I do edit many pages and add things that may have been left out, but I have never started my own page. I am not sure what I have done wrong on the Army Men: Team Assault page and would appreciate it if you could help explain. Please respond to my talk page. I am Thompsonmarksman.

The problem on this particular page is that it is pretty much reads like a user manual for the game it describes. For example the lead section contains some form of introduction that you would encounter in game, and not in an encyclopedia. The rest of the article are statistics about various units that, while obviously of interest to whoever plays the game, does not belong into an encyclopedia. Personally i am not a specialist on game related articles, but i might still give you a little assistance by pointing you to a game related article which seems to comply to the article guidelines: Grand Theft Auto 3. Have a look at the structure of this particular particle, and see if you can incorporate it into your article.

By the way, signing your posts with your user name is done by adding four tildes ~~~~ after the message. Also i hope you will forgive me this comment, but i kind of believe this is about the first edit you ever made, based upon both the account creation log and the user contribution log :). In case you have a different account that is of course void, but in case that is not the matter i have to say im rather impressed with the first edit you made. Most first edits are either small changes or new pages that contain the words "Test" or some other bogus info. Seeing full fledged new pages from a new user account is something special, even if i end up having to prod them :). Excirial ^{(Talk,Contribs)} 22:52, 20 July 2008 (UTC)
