- This page appears completely full of things that are non-notable for wikipedia. It is also poorly written and seems to serve very little use to anyone not familiar with the game. I do think KOC deserves a good article, the game itself is certainly notable, but there are no references, and other such things. I'm also curious as to what policies exactly would be useful to remember for a page like this. All comments are appreciated :). Chris M. 21:03, 4 December 2006 (UTC)

Ok, so in a nutshell:
- The lead should be a summary of what's in the body of the article. You have a good base in the lead to create an "Origins" and a "Reception" section.
- The list of clans should go, it's pretty worthless.
- The ages summary can stay, if trimmed down to a reasonably-sized paragraph, maybe titled "in-game history".
- Have there been any ratings by newspapers, website, etc? These need to appear in the "reception" section.
- You need a "Gameplay" section detailing what a player's options are, what's the conditions for victory, etc. Another one can describe the universe, etc.
- You will definitely need to source every statement you make in the article.
- About guidelines, see WP:WIAGA.
- The tide of players (from 0 to 200000 to 40000 is interesting. Any verifiable explanation?
These are the basic guidelines to take it to "decent article", ie GAC. Don't hesitate to contact me if you have any questions.--SidiLemine 11:13, 15 December 2006 (UTC)
