From what I can tell, we ended with "Getting Started", but I still see some with "Basics", "How to play" and other inconsistencies.  I have a feeling there are too many opinions for this to reach a proper consensus, but lets try again. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 21:56, 14 July 2007 (CDT)

:I always liked Getting Started best because it denotes information just for noobs and such, it's like the stuff you'd find in the game manual and additional game features explained (that's for the getting started page itself).  Then the sub pages under that ToC heading all make sense because it's like basic information.  I just don't like using the term basic and Getting Started is like BAM hey noobs, read this.  How to Play is too specific to like, doing things.  Getting Started gives us a general term that lets us explain things beyond playing the game (i.e. controls/mechanics) like characters, background info, etc.  --[[User:Notmyhandle|Notmyhandle]] ([[User talk:Notmyhandle|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/Notmyhandle|contribs]]) 12:36, 15 July 2007 (CDT)

Only thing decided was that it doesn't belong on the ToC page.  Should we still add it to the main game page?  Anyone know anything about the ability to have it named with the "The" at the end in the category lists?  The only possible way I can think of right now (which I am highly against) is renaming those games with the "The" on the end.  -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 21:59, 14 July 2007 (CDT)
