AdventureQuest Worlds edits
[edit]Hi. I re-reverted your edit to the AQWorlds article and figured you might like an explanation. Don't worry, it's not because I want to cover up criticism of the game (I don't even play it very often myself... I got too bored. I'll stick with the single-player ones, thank you very much!). It really is because it was pretty vicious (and, IMO, partly baseless) criticism of the game. If you'd like a step-by-step explanation, here you are:
The part added to the classes part was too game guide-ish... as a general rule, we try to avoid getting in-detail about classes/armors/monsters. All of it was true, but it really wouldn't be of interest to the average reader. That's why it's the general consensus on the AE WikiProject to give only very basic information on classes and armor. If/when we can find enough reliable sources criticising aspects of gameplay, this is something we'd definitely want to put in it though. (something like this: "Several classes are very similar to one another, with only minor changes." perhaps?)
The part about the combat system was just attacking the game. Completely unacceptable for an unbiased encyclopedia article.
The gold part was another trivial part, like the armor... it doesn't actually matter. It's not a major part of gameplay, and, frankly, the casual reader doesn't care that players have favorite farming spots or that there aren't a ton of items in-game yet. So that's why that was removed.
I just wanted to let you know why that happened. Everyone's entitled to an explanation, don't you think? Anyway, if you want to discuss other changes to the article (or dispute the removal of these ones), just add a note to the talk page. You could reply here to me as well.
