Project Reality on Wikipedia

Nice, but some of it reads like, well, a freaking advertisement. And there are some second-person references (e.g. "you".) Currently cleaning it up.

Edit: Done.

Thanks.

Future plans:
Currently, the new features/weapons only covers .4 to .5 stuff, I will add all new features soon. I'll also add the rest of the images.

I find myself frequently forwarding your wiki to new players among some other pages to explain in simple words how to play or other usefull tips on PR.

All in all, you did good. It's in my bookmarker.
As to why? Minimum and recommended specs. And that you in very few words explain whats up.

I suck at it. You are good at it. Cheers.

I did some cleanup, and added extraction mode and general kit limiting in the features. I also added a note that in PR, 2 gigs of ram is recommended. I also added some stuff on the insurgents, and added categories too

EDIT:
for those wondering what was on the page before:

Project Reality is a mod for the First Person Shooter game Battlefield 2. The mod is a parody, making player believe they are downloading a mod that will increse teamwork and realism, when in fact they get something completely different. The mod is completely based around how many SAW/RPK gunners you can fit on a team. The US team has received more powerful versions of the original BF2 guns, and the MEC/Chinese teams get little slingshots and airsoft guns. You cannot win unless you have a SAW, all other guns are there just to look cute, or something...

lol, someone got pissed playing .3

Can people please tell me what they think of my EF, Merlin and WAH-64D Apache descriptions. I didn't have much info to go on about the in game EF and Apache.

Good job, but isn't a description such as this one a bit problematic?

The Merlin has a Radar and Laser Warning Receiver, Missile Approach Warners and Directional Infra-Red countermeasures. NVGs and FLIR can also be used to aid navigation.

Even if the Merlin in real life does have such features, the Merlin in PR has neither directional flares nor NVGs or an FLIR, so I'd suggest removing or reworking those sentences so as to not give an incorrect impression of the mod or the vehicle.

Suggestion: change the "Mode(s):" links in the infobox (AAS v2, Extraction, Scenario) to the sections in the article describing those gamemodes. More informative, and would get rid of the red link. Would do it myself, but I'm not sure I'd know how.

It seems like every R-DEV has GeZe on the Ignorelist, lol.

Added a link to the Tournament in the External Links section.

As for that logo, I think egg probably has one. Just send him a PM.

seems like it sometimes, especially the devs who are responsible for R-PUB applications.

You did? I didn't see it, so I just went and added it.

Okay, but I am weary of PMs because I never get a response

I feel you. That's why I try to IM them instead. Only the R-MODs and eggman ever give replies.

yeah, eggman replied about the logo to me fast, he told me to PM evilhomer or 2slick, hopefully they'll get back to me

I don't know their IM usernames, so I can't do that

Please don't add links to such things, it is considered link spam and will only give more reasons for them to try to delete the article.

Also in the future people, as a warning, don't add any praise like "this is the best mod in the world" on the article, or anything like that. It will only piss people off and give them more reasons to delete the article.

You didn't see it? Weird. I'm real sure I put it there AND checked it was showing up... Thanks anyway.

I *might* have Evilhomer's MSN, but I think he'll reply to your PM anyway.

Or if all else fails I could post in the R-PUB section for you.
