"had shipping" is improper grammar and should be changed to "had shipped" 2601:602:9A80:EE8:7D54:D91D:DBA:2C0B (talk) 04:58, 28 May 2018 (UTC)

Requested move 18 June 2018

The following is a closed discussion of a requested move. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. Editors desiring to contest the closing decision should consider a move review. No further edits should be made to this section.

The result of the move request was: Hoo boy, this is a doozy. MOVED Fortnite to Fortnite: Save the World - clear consensus to move. No consensus to move Fortnite Battle Royale. No consensus for or against a WP:CONCEPTDAB, though on the surface it sure seems like a grand idea to me. But it was raised far too late in the discussion for anyone to seriously suggest we have formed a solid consensus on it. Until then, Fortnite will redirect to Fortnite: Save the World, but a discussion on that redirect can be started immediately assuming no concept dab is made.

• Fortnite Battle Royale → ?
• Fortnite → ?

– According to WP:NAMINGCRITERIA, "The title is one that readers are likely to look or search for". I believe the current titles of Fortnite and Fortnite Battle Royale fail that criterion. The Battle Royale mode (BR) of the game is far more popular and googling 'fortnite' returns only results about BR (except for Wikipedia article Fortnite (Save the World/PvE mode). Media very often refer to BR mode as simply 'Fortnite' [1][2][3], and in coverage of the PvE mode they refer to the game as 'Fortnite: Save the World' or 'PvE mode of Fortnite' [4][5]. Therefore, I would propose that Fortnite Battle Royale be moved to Fortnite and Fortnite to Fortnite: Save the World, Fortnite (PvE mode) or some other precise title.
However, according to WP:NC-VG, "Unofficial titles are not acceptable." and 'Fortnite: Save the World' is unofficial. But 'Fortnite Battle Royale' is also not an official title of a game. Epic Games refers to Fortnite BR simply as Fortnite and 'Battle Royale' is a mode. On stores of several platforms, including iOS and Nintendo Switch, Fortnite Battle Royale mode is available as 'Fortnite'. 'Fortnite: Save the World' is reffered to by Epic Games as 'PvE mode'.
With WP:NC-VG and the 'Naturalness' criterion of WP:NAMINGCRITERIA in mind, I believe that the best idea would be to move Fortnite Battle Royale to Fortnite (Battle Royale mode), move Fortnite to Fortnite (PvE mode), and make Fortnite redirect to Fortnite (Battle Royale mode). Please add any comments and suggestions regarding the request and the proposed names. Biexx (talk) 10:58, 18 June 2018 (UTC)--Relisting. Dekimasuよ! 07:10, 27 June 2018 (UTC)

Unfortunately, the official name of the game mode with Battle Royale is "Fortnite Battle Royale", we cannot move it from that, and we have to deal with the fact that the product you can buy is "Fortnite" and contains access to the "Fortnite Battle Royale" mode. So we cannot move the pages as you ask. We also need to be aware of recentism: Fortnite Battle Royale is popular, but Fortnite the main game has been around and discussed for about 6 years.

However, on the talk page for Fortnite, I have offered a different solution in which the current Fortnite page being moved to "Fortnite Save the World" and leaving the Fortnite page the equivalent of a video game series article, quickly linkling to both submodes. People still searching "Fortnite" for the Battle Royale mode will still need to click again, but it will reduce the confusion. --Masem (t) 13:44, 18 June 2018 (UTC)

• Move Fortnite to Fortnite: Save the World; and Fortnite Battle Royale to just Fortnite, as it's the overwhelming common name and search topic for the game. The OP saying "Save the World" is not an official name is wrong, because it has coverage in media, making it real in the eyes of Wikipedia. An alternate proposal would be to merge the articles back together again under the Fortnite name, but have it primarily about the BR mode. Maybe this isn't ideal, but the games are officially meant to be the same, just separate gamemodes. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 22:52, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
  • Yes, "Fortnite" increasing means the BR mode, but that's like saying "COD" is Call of Duty. It's a shortcut name. We shouldn't break the official product title just because the media calls it something else. That said, that's why I suggested a landing "Fortnite" page that combines some of the information and keep separate pages for the STW and BR modes. --Masem (t) 23:11, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
    • WP:COMMONNAME and WP:PRIMARYTOPIC would trump any official name, shouldn't it? Especially when the Save the World/PvE mode is almost always called out by name to distinguish it from the BR mode, which is just called Fortnite by the vast majority of publications. That being said, I don't oppose your proposal, as it's still better than keeping the current format in my opinion. ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 09:58, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
      • PRIMARYTOPIC is very much a concern: if you look at Talk:Fortnite, see how many requests there were to add the Switch as a platform. The argument against COMMONNAME at this time is that the STW part of the game has been around for 6+ years, whereas BR is less than a year; we should avoid that recentism until there's more time to establish it. This is why I believe the three-article approach, with "Fortnite" serving as a "series"-like page, will alleviate most confusion, and still provides sharp division of content. --Masem (t) 15:43, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
• don't move: I agree with Masem, it would be confusing to have "Fortnite Battle Royale" in the image and call this article just "Fortnite" and have the current Fortnite article be renamed to "Fortnite: Save The World". it makes sense to stick with the name here. Fortnite covers the entire game, Battle Royale covers the battle Royale only. I think this will be a problem for readers who don't know anything about Fortnite.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 23:14, 18 June 2018 (UTC)
  • I agree that it could be confusing if 'Fortnite Battle Royale' was titled just 'Fortnite'. Perhaps that article should not be moved. We could move only 'Fortnite' to 'Fortnite: Save the World' and then redirect 'Fortnite' to 'Fortnite Battle Royale'. This would be a compromise between clarity (clear article titles (WP:PRECISION)) and naturalness (users searching 'Fortnite' expecting the article about BR mode). Biexx (talk) 07:11, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
  • I also agree. I'm actually in the middle of researching Fortnite for an unrelated article, which required some time to sort out the history. Yes, the Battle Royale mode—as I recently discovered testing the game for my article—is the only active mode for the video game Fortnite. It took a while to figure out the player versus everything mode called Save the World was the original game mode and, according to the in-game dialog "is in paid Early Access with microtransactions" and "will be free in 2018." It's clear to me that Fortnite is the game, with two separate game modes. It just so happens that due to development status and popularity, Save the World is largely under the radar. If the Fortnite article is getting too large (which I don't think should be a problem), perhaps you can have articles for the separate modes, but I don't think that is necessary. My editor asked me specifically to research and write about Fortnite. The article will largely focus on Battle Royale, but it will certainly mention and discuss the Save the World mode also. Lostraven (talk) 15:32, 19 June 2018 (UTC)
  • I think all these concerns on how to properly name the articles could be solved with what @Masem has proposed. We are aware of the existence of two separate games unified under a name, Fortnite, that share the same mechanics but differ in objetives, and while most users may come here expecting to read info related to the game's BR mode, we can't just ignore that Fortnite was originally a PvE-only game that got announced back in 2011. Moving "Fortnite Battle Royale" to just "Fortnite" would only help the original mode be more isolated when it's the STW the title that it started all, although it's clearly received less attention from the media and players given its long development. To avoid recentism and favoritism, it would be recommendable to have a separate article that represent a summary of the content of both modes, pretty much like a series page. In this way, we can meet WP:NCVG as, once launched, the game itself gives players the option to choose between Save the World and Battle Royale. Hakken (talk) 16:24, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
• Move Fortnite to Fortnite: Save the World. Leave Fortnite Battle Royale where it is but have "Fortnite" redirect to the Fortnite Battle Royale. Rreagan007 (talk) 00:22, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
• Merge In my opinion the best option is to merge Fornite (PvE) and Fornite Battle Royale into one article called Fortnite, with different sections for the Save the World mode and the Battle Royal mode. This is consistent with the way Epic presents the game, a single game Fortnite with two different modes (even though they do sell/distribute them differently). This would also resolve the conflict between "what readers will search for" and "only using official names." Thoughts? Jean15paul (talk) 21:58, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
  • A problem with merging is that originally, both were covered in a single article, but at the start of the year, it became clear that they are effectively two different topics based on their development history and their reception. A merge could be done, but it would lead back to the same issue that led to the split. --Masem (t) 23:21, 20 June 2018 (UTC)
• Move Fortnite to Fortnite: Save the World and make Fortnite an overarching article covering the whole game/both gamemodes/development etc.
  • • Stay Fornite batttle royale covers this article completley. Although this article could use elaboration its not wise to combine, then i t woulkd become confusing and hard to find topics — Preceding unsigned comment added by WidgetFan1234 (talk • contribs) 05:38, 21 June 2018 (UTC)

Another solution could be to have Fortnite as a disambiguation page if the two modes are averse to being reintergrated into one topic, with each mode carrying their respective subtitles, so Fortnite: Save the World & Fortnite: Battle Royale. While not ideal, it is perhaps the fairest way of doing it given the factors that can support either title being preferentially treated. — Imperator ^Talk 18:54, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

If that's not especially desirable, then the status quo is probably a safer route for now, but being subject to revision and revisiting at a later date. — Imperator ^Talk 19:08, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

Yet another option may be to have Fornite as a general article on the similarities of both, and have more extensive sub-articles linked from the main one with regards to the separate modes; I believe it would be more aesthetically pleasing than a disambiguation page at the least. — Imperator ^Talk 19:13, 24 June 2018 (UTC)

This is what I have suggested. "Fortnite" would mention both gameplay modes, and the resource/construction aspect that applies to both, a brief bit of development history, and a general reception section, as right now, all the awards "Fortnite" have gotten have been given to "Fortnite" and not necessarily to "Fortnite Battle Royale" (though very much likely for that). As long as the lede sentence includes links to both STW and BR modes, then we should be fine. --Masem (t) 01:40, 25 June 2018 (UTC)

Talking about elements that appear in both modes, it should also be noted that other composers have worked on the game besides Rom Di Prisco. As reported by Glixel, Epic brought Marco Beltrami and Pinar Toprak to write some music, but unlike Di Prisco, who primarily composed for STW, their score is shared by the two versions of the game. It's the same with the awards, we need an additional space that serves as a synthesis of the aspects that have an impact on both modes. Hakken (talk) 18:57, 26 June 2018 (UTC)

• Oppose Fortnite is no longer known as "Save the World", so it wouldn't make sense to move it there. Although given COMMONNAME, just using the OFFICIALNAME makes void of any artificial disambiguator between the two pages, and keeps the natural "Battle Royale" (and natural > artificial). People looking for Fortnite will find it either at first glance or at sight of that page's hatnote. No move required. Lordtobi (✉) 13:52, 27 June 2018 (UTC)
• Oppose - the current titles are accurate and not confusing. The header and lead of Fortnite explain the distinction just in case anyone lands on the wrong page. -- Netoholic @ 05:11, 28 June 2018 (UTC)
• Support* The query Fortnite does return only Battle Royale as it is far more popular than Save the World. I support this move. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Endervoextur (talk • contribs) 22:13, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

• Technically, although save the world is a game mode of Fortnite overall, Battle Royale is still part of the overall Fortnite package. Unless save the world has its own article. That's why people are proposing making a Fortnite: Save the World article first.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 22:16, 3 July 2018 (UTC)

• I think the solution here is rewriting the present article to be more of a WP:BROADCONCEPT covering all the Fortnite products, including Battle Royale. In fact Battle Royale should be a bigger presence here than the single-player game as it's by far the bigger of the two. If there's need for a separate article on single-player, start a fork at Fortnite: Save the World or similar.--Cúchullain ^t/c 14:24, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

I would support the solution presented by Masem below (making Fortnite a WP:BROADCONCEPT article covering everything, moving single-player Fortnite to Fortnite: Save the World, and leaving Fortnite Battle Royale where it is).--Cúchullain ^t/c 17:28, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

• FWIW , User:Masem/draft/fortnite is the draft I'm working on for being the main "Fortnite" article, with the current one then being moved to "Fortnite: Save the World". --Masem (t) 17:24, 5 July 2018 (UTC)

!Vote to move my preliminary draft to the current Fortnite landing page

Pending the above closure and subsequent move, does anyone have any problems with me moving my present draft User:Masem/draft/fortnite to be at Fortnite (which currently redirects to F:STW?) I would need to pull in some sources and add some reception sections, but it's a quick start to let people improve. To remind everyone, this would not be a DAB page but a brief topic introduction primarily for that people that search "Fortnite" get to the right game ASAP. --Masem (t) 04:43, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

• Support: Makes the most sense and also helps readers get the article they re looking for without sacrificing natural disambiguation.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 19:32, 10 July 2018 (UTC)
• Support, and just go ahead and do it. There was consensus for it and no opposition, the move makes sense, and the current setup is a mess. Thanks for coming up with a solid all around solution, Masem.—Cúchullain ^t/c 22:05, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

Okay, I've gone ahead and done just that, filling in references and fixing various things. Please add more if you think it is necessary (I haven't touched reception, but that should be added but again, high level summary, leave the details in the separate article). --Masem (t) 23:42, 10 July 2018 (UTC)

• Great work. If there is no opposition, i'm moving the awards from Fortnite: Save the World to Fortnite as there is no clear statement in the cited sources on which mode they belong to, though we can assume Battle Royale played a major part. Also, the aggregator sites appear to include reviews for both the PvE mode and Battle Royale, thus i think Fortnite should be the only article to include these sites. Hakken (talk) 14:25, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

That was I debating but I do agree with that. Because the awards were given to Fortnite, its hard to tell if they meant the STW or BR part. (On the other hand, we can tell which reviews were for what mode). --Masem (t) 14:39, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Right. Once there is concensus on this, we are pretty much done. Though i'm afraid we will be getting some vandalism due to this page being unprotected along with Battle Royale. Hakken (talk) 15:19, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Given the lack of opposition on moving the awards, i will boldly do it. Hakken (talk) 17:55, 15 July 2018 (UTC)

• Personally I'd still prefer the BR article to just be at Fortnite as it's the overwhelming common name for it, but this is much more understandable to a new reader than it was previously, so good work. One issue I currently have with the page is the "which has been released as different software packages featuring different game modes that otherwise share the same general gameplay and game engine" wording in the opening sentence, which I can see being hard to understand to a parent who's googling "Fortnite" and this is the first thing they learn about the game. Can this be simplified at all? ~ Dissident93 ^(talk) 17:14, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

Coverage of seasons?

I think there's enough coverage of the various seasons of BR that we can include a brief table section on it - start/end date, general theme, any publicity around the season (eg the comet leading to S4, the rocket launch and real-world ARG for S5), and any significant changes to the game for that season (which I think limits it to pretty much map changes; addition of things like shopping carts are season independent). --Masem (t) 18:01, 11 July 2018 (UTC)

• Support: Seasons play a major part in the game, each giving a whole new pack of challenges, cosmetics, items and ultimately a change of narrative. So it makes sense to have a dedicated section for readers to see how the game has been updated over time. Hakken (talk) 17:44, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
  • I just want to make sure we don't go in too deep. Right now, there's more than enough RSes that we could cover even the weekly challenges, but that's not our role. I want to stay at a high level on theme, interesting narrative elements, and high-level gameplay changes. --Masem (t) 17:46, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
    • I agree. If we're aiming for short but concise content, we can take as example some of this category's games. Hakken (talk) 18:07, 12 July 2018 (UTC)
• Maybe point out that the seasonal construct exists, how many seasons there were, major examples of what they included and impact in the media (e.g. the real life crossovers). Detailing every season in the littelest detail could easily become crufty. Lordtobi (✉) 19:58, 12 July 2018 (UTC)

Possible free image for the real-life ARG

Someone at Flickr uploaded shots of the Durr Burger in the desert [6] with a free license, but I'm checking on the issue of that being a derivative work or can be used in a de minimus faction. --Masem (t) 19:30, 14 July 2018 (UTC)

Is Fortnite Bad For Kids?

Fortnite is a popular game that is taking over the world. With it being available on the PS4, Xbox 1, Nintendo Switch And IOS products pretty much anyone can access it and play it. Even kids. Fortnite consists of 100 players being put in a game and battle it out and the last man standing will win. They have varying game modes such as duos and squads. 50 v 50 mode is two teams of 50 battle it out until one team wins by eliminating the other team. They have also introduced a playground mode which gives you an hours to play with friends and you only die when the storm starts moving. You can practice building or battle your team mates or as popular youtubers have done made their own custom gamemodes.

There has been something everyone has been talking about. On the Australian 'Today Show'. Parents have been emailing them about how their kids play too much Fortnite. They argued that the aim of the game is to kill everyone and even one time said it was gory. The game is not at all gory. When you die you fall to the ground you drop your stuff and get zapped up by a robot... not in anyway gory.

For me I believe yes. Violent games make kids violent as i have had that experience with my brother. But its not the game you need to get rid of. Its up to the parents to tell their kids no and set restrictions and not just blame the game. If you are a parent complaining and wanting the game banned. Your the parent your responsible not the game. Don't blame it on something else because it's easier. Because banning not just stops your kids from playing it but stops everyone around the world from playing it. That just seems a little selfish doesn't it?

The truth is yes Fortnite is a violent game. No there is no gore. And no its not the games fault if your kids are violent it's you parents not doing your parenting correctly.

TayaFox123 (talk) 16:10, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

Wikipedia talk pages are not a forum, so this is off-topic. But we do have a section in the article about parents' concern for the game regarding its addictiveness and violence so we are addressing what some have said. --Masem (t) 16:13, 4 September 2018 (UTC)

Possible increase of importance rating

According to the criteria for high importance from WP:VG/A, an article should be of high importance if it is a "Series [or] game that have been shown to have a lasting impact on a genre, culture or the industry itself". From what we can see from statistics and popular culture, Fortnite has become one of the most famous games from the Battle Royale genre, alongside PUBG. So is is right to increase the importance to high or should it remain at mid for now? Thnaks 1.02 editor (C651 set 217/218) 12:16, 15 January 2019 (UTC)

As this game was one of the most significant of 2018, I'd support this. Lordtobi (✉) 17:27, 15 January 2019 (UTC)
