Revision as of 20:48, 19 January 2007
Good game I played the sit-down version at the lodge in Lake Barkley that is the only Pole Position machine Kentucky. 68.171.74.77 06:18, 29 October 2005
- That's nice, I remember playing the game and having some fun as well, but that's not really Wikipedia material. The Talk/Discussion pages are also only meant for discussing the article, not playing the game which it is about for instance. (By the way, type 4 tildes (~) as 1 word to sign your talk page additions with your name/IP and the date/time.) Retodon8 23:32, 29 October 2005 (UTC)
- Hey man, aren't you being a bit snobbish? So what if the poor guy wrote ONE LINE about the game? Don't be such a tight ass. 193.251.135.124
- I was just informing the poster; perhaps (s)he wasn't aware of Wikipedia's Talk pages' purpose. I wasn't accusing him/her of anything, just trying to help out. Retodon8 15:53, 18 December 2005 (UTC)
- On Zilog_Z8000 it says Pole Position used two Z8002s, not a Z80. Can anyone verify?81.154.222.142 23:23, 1 December 2006 (UTC)
- MAME says it uses both one Z80, as well as two Z8002s
Requested move
- The following discussion is an archived debate of the proposal. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section on the talk page. No further edits should be made to this section.
The result of the debate was PAGE MOVED per discussion below. -GTBacchus(talk) 20:48, 19 January 2007 (UTC)
Pole Position → Pole Position (video game) — This capitalized page name conflicts with pole position (the uncapitalized page name). See Wikipedia:Naming conventions (precision)#Minor spelling variations for the relevant guideline here. The uncapitalized pole position is a general term listed in dictionaries, so it should be considered the primary name. Therefore, the capitalized Pole Position (video game) should be moved elsewhere.
