Ehrgeiz

Clarification needed. Is Ehrgeiz part of scope under WP:SE? Because the FF series template listed it under Related Games, yet its not under WP:SE's scope. — Blue。 07:07, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

It's related to Final Fantasy because it contains Final Fantasy VII characters as unlockable playable quest characters. now that i think about it, it might be best to go in FFVII template rather than the entire Final Fantasy series. Anyways, the reason why it's not part of our scope is probably because it's not developed by square or square enix. merely published. but since our scope has changed not too long ago, i don't think it's a problem to add it into our scope.Bread Ninja (talk) 08:24, 11 October 2011 (UTC)

Merging Minigames of Final Fantasy

Hi all, I boldly redirected Minigames of Final Fantasy to Gameplay of Final Fantasy, but was reverted. I've started a merge discussion here - please come by and help form a consensus, it's been a while since the last one. --PresN 23:24, 13 October 2011 (UTC)

Stub percentage project

All articles higher than Stub class: 100% complete

Hey all, remember this? Since waaaay back in February, when I first brought up the idea of getting all of our articles to be better than stubs, we've moved from %79.5 to over %90 of all articles being Start+! That's more than double the ratio for the video games project at large. I've been slowly pushing articles bit by bit over the past few months, and we've gotten pretty far. Lets all give it another push to move us to %95+ or %100! It's mainly biography stubs at this point; if you can find even one source for some of these guys it could be enough to push them up a level. Please help out, and keep the SE project as one of the best mid-sized projects out there! --PresN 03:31, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

If no sources are found for any of those soon they should be deleted.∞陣内Jinnai 13:49, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

I went through the bios and redirected any article that had no sources and where I could not find even one source. (excluding something like an imdb entry). Where I found a source I slapped it into the external links/references; several of these guys could probably make it to Start now. If you disagree with a redirect, find a source and revert. We've jumped to 93.4%! --PresN 19:07, 20 October 2011 (UTC)

Dragon's Den

Put up a request at WP:RS/N#Dragon's Den as I realize it would be a marginal reliable source at best.∞陣内Jinnai 02:08, 5 December 2011 (UTC)

Does Eidos still exist?

So the Eidos and "SCi/Eidos/Square Enix Europe" articles are a bit of a muddle. I know that there is an Eidos Montreal and an Eidos Shanghai, and maybe another satellite studio. I can't find any evidence that there is any office anywhere still called simply Eidos, and I don't think that label is still being used on any game that isn't a re-release. The SE websites are a bit contradictory about organization, though none mention an Eidos anywhere. Am I wrong, or does Eidos only exist as an out-of-date web portal (http://www.eidos.com) and a fond memory? ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 13:05, 29 December 2011 (UTC)

Hard to say...i dont think it does anymore from what we seen but thats just my guess.Lucia Black (talk) 20:31, 30 December 2011 (UTC)

My understanding is that while the name is still floating around, and is still used in the subsidiaries' names, that Eidos itself no longer exists as a separate entity from Square Enix Europe. --PresN 02:14, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

So, searching a job posting page, they say "The Square Enix Europe game studios -Square Enix London Studios, IO Interactive, Crystal Dynamics, Eidos Montreal & Beautiful Game Studios".[1] SE said that Eidos would not be a publisher, but would stay a developer.[2] Is it possible that Eidos is now "Square Enix London Studios"? Because the European game publisher is still "Square Enix Ltd." ...I think. ▫ JohnnyMrNinja 03:20, 1 January 2012 (UTC)

Final Fantasy XIII-2

Hey all, I've beaten FFXIII-2 (at least the primary ending) and have started working on the game's article. Sjones expressed interest a couple months ago in doing a collaboration on the article to bump it to GA level, so you and anyone else interested feel free to come on by and help out! I've rewritten the gameplay and plot sections, but it's all uncited and the plot was almost stream of consciousness, so it could all stand to be rewritten. Any input you have on the article would be appreciated! --PresN 21:57, 21 February 2012 (UTC)

Don't forget the basics of the basics: citations. I'd be better to leave you guys to that, seeing as I don't have the game to work with. -017Bluefield (talk) 23:09, 7 March 2012 (UTC)

Haven't been working on this for the past 2 weeks, but I'll start back up on it (just 100%'d it today). And yes, obviously citations- I did get FFXIII to FA, I do know how it's supposed to work. --PresN 01:25, 8 March 2012 (UTC)

Fortress (Square Enix)

I have recreated the Fortress article for the reasons expressed by Postwar, Bread Ninja and I at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Square Enix/archive/9#Fortress (Square Enix) (except for that outdated bit about the game not being cancelled). Is it possible to undelete the images File:Fortress_-_Judge.jpg and File:Fortress tech demo.jpg or should new ones be uploaded? Jonathan Hardin' (talk) 15:05, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

The article is still a work in progress by the way. Jonathan Hardin' (talk) 15:08, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Images undeleted. --PresN 16:22, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Thanks :) Jonathan Hardin' (talk) 16:36, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

Because Fortress is an article again, it will be on retention for three months to be back on the FF12 Featured Topic or else the topic loses its status. GamerPro64 00:18, 26 February 2012 (UTC)

A difficult situation indeed. Since i voted for it's return, i will make an effort on this article, despite not being the best editor in this project.Lucia Black (talk) 00:32, 26 February 2012 (UTC)
