== Fall from Heaven Article ==

I am currently in the process of writing an article in my userspace on the popular Civ IV mod Fall from Heaven. However, seeing as I am a relative n00b here on Wikipedia, I would much appreciate some help and/or support. If you wish, you can reach me on my talk page. Thanks!

More Info???

I would like to see more information on civ 4, like the resources. Not to much for 'wikipedia is not a game guide' to show up, though. Articleer (talk) 01:43, 27 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

For more information you might want to visit the Civilization IV Wiki at Wikia. The articles about the resources haven't been created yet, though, but the wiki still has almost 500 articles. —ZeroOne (talk / @) 12:47, 20 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
For what it's worth, the Civilization IV Wiki now holds more than 700 articles, including articles about the resources. I think adding a link to the Civ4 wiki should be considered. To the External links section of this article, I mean. —ZeroOne (talk / @) 21:51, 18 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Pulled the stability problems section

Unreferenced for a few months now. Pulled it out for now. DP76764 (Talk) 04:03, 14 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Rename/move article

I suggest moving the article to Sid Meier's Civilization IV since that is the game's full title. SharkD (talk) 01:21, 23 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I say leave it as it is, it's far more commonly known as just Civilization IV. Properly a case of WP:NC(CN). QueenCake (talk) 17:58, 26 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]
More discussion has occured here. SharkD (talk) 01:41, 29 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Editions Comparison

I had to do some digging but I found what the differences are between the Special, Gold, and Complete editions. Special as someone mentioned includes a faux leather box, soundtrack, Tech Tree poster, and keyboard template. Gold includes the Warlords expansion, a Behind-the-scenes DVD, a Fantasy and aTech Tree poster. Complete includes the two expansions on a single DVD disc.

rhye.civfanatics.net

I recently removed links to this site added by the site-owner

Since this issue spans Wikipedias in multiple languages, there's a discussion underway on Meta-Wiki with the owner of this site at the bottom of this page:

Given the history discussed there, neither the site-owner, IPs nor new user accounts should add these links or write about these mods in article space since it's against our Conflict of Interest Guideline). If established editors wish to add neutral material about the owner or his products, that's OK. Any material should cite references that meet the requirements of our No Original Research, Reliable Sources and Verifiability standards.

It's also OK for the owner to discuss suggested changes on article talk pages, as long as he/she isn't just nagging for inclusion (see WP:CANVASS).

If you want to comment on this post, it would probably be best to leave any remarks at the link above, not here, since this discussion spans multiple articles. I think that if you're already signed in on this Wikipedia, leaving a post there will automatically set up an account there for you there but I'm not sure -- you might want to make a sandbox edit there first to be sure. --A.

Would it be correct to assume he's Emperor Taizong of Tang? Kanjo Kotr (talk) 13:08, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Best not to make assumptions. If someone has the Chinese manual, perhaps they can verify. Or this leader could be removed from the list, as this is the English Wikipedia, not the Chinese one, and we don't need to know about that version of the game. DP76764 (Talk) 16:57, 2 March 2010 (UTC)[reply]

More Info on Great People

I was thinking that perhaps there should be more detailed info on the great people. Not necessarily a list, but perhaps an organizational chart that is done similiar to the civilizations with leaders, units, etc. My reasoning is that Great People are a huge part of the game and contribute to the educational value of the game. Who hasn't googled or wp'd some of the great people to learn more about them? Anyway, if they were listed here with links to their WP page, it could be valuable to the educational merit of WP, which in the end is learning and the sharing of knowledge.

Removing Civ Tables/Trivial Lists

This is being discussed in the Civ:V article and likely to have ramifications for this previous incarnation's article too. Rather than tread the same ground over please join the debate; Talk:Civilization_V#Removal_of_tables_of_Civilizations to see if we can't reach a consensus.-Oosh (talk) 12:12, 1 December 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Grammy Win for Baba Yetu

Does it bear mentioning that the theme song composed for this game, Baba Yetu, went on to later win a Grammy in 2010, the first piece of video game music to have achieved this honor? EdenMaster (talk) 20:55, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Sounds like a good addition. Got a good source for it? DP76764 (Talk) 23:41, 14 February 2011 (UTC)[reply]
