You might want to put a note on his talk page because he contributed two days ago and whenever he logs in, he'll see the message bar. I'd wait for a few days with the message on his talk then start finishing the walkthrough.

::Thanks Prod. Oh and yeah, the Hill 400 was a struggle. But if you know where to go, you can defend of the hill easily!! I'll mention it in the guide. [[User:Poiuytre|Poiuytre]] 05:02, 31 May 2007 (CDT)

:I finished doing the British missions, and I initially planned to simply add screenshots to your American walkthroughs, but I found that that was impossible. The two versions we're playing on seems to be so different that what I tried ([http://strategywiki.org/w/index.php?title=Call_of_Duty_2/D-Day&oldid=174677 here]'s the diff) did not work at all. I've given the page a slight overhaul; the first three sections are the parts you've worked on (labeled Xbox 360), while the latter three are the ones I'll be writing in the future (labeled PC). [[User:Baejung92|Baejung92]] 19:00, 17 August 2007 (CDT)
::Are the two games different enough that they should be split to separate guides completely? Or, is there a lot of overlap and just a few differences? -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 15:40, 19 August 2007 (CDT)
:::No, they are not different. You walk a bit then the boat explodes, you are helped up by another soldier. Then you find and climb the rope. It's just that there is a cut-scene in between those two actions and I didn't want to mention it as it might cause a spoiler (And I really don't like spoilers in guides unless they're a must). There is no need to split the guides :-)!!! [[User:Poiuytre|Poiuytre]] 10:13, 20 August 2007 (CDT)
::::Oops, sorry about the spoiler thing... but I noticed additional differences: you get a Springfield rifle not a Washington (is that even a rifle or something else? I haven't heard of it), you can't fire at the huge turret's gunners, and the "In the Trench" section... well, I really couldn't find anything that resembles it on my game. You could read my writing to see the others. [[User:Baejung92|Baejung92]] 17:42, 20 August 2007 (CDT)
:::::Hmm, maybe it is Springfield, although I don't know how I could have got them mixed up. I definitely remember it is a sniping weapon. I also definitely remember that you can fire at the huge turrents gunners (with the sniper) and there are two long trenches, one near the cliffs and another facing the small village. Hope that's helped. [[User:Poiuytre|Poiuytre]] 11:34, 21 August 2007 (CDT)
::::::Sorry, I meant that you can shoot at the gunners but nothing happens when you hit them. The only way to get rid of that turret is to go to a crater where a comms officer is calling for air support, which comes a bit after you go there. I think I know what you're talking about with the trenches. But the biggest problem I have right now is finding room for all the screenshots I have (and finding corresponding spots). By the way, I think I can fit the shots onto the Silo mission and most of the Defending the Pointe mission, so we probably won't have to do anything with those.

::::"While the missions in the game have some resemblance with those in the desktop version (for example, the contents of pre-mission diary excerpts are the same and, therefore, the missions have similar aims), in general, the maps are completely different and the missions are MUCH duller, easier and shorter and more boring than in the desktop version. In the desktop version, you constantly get a LOT of new sub-missions in a mission. The case is different in here, unfortunately."

::::Heh, would have been cool if you could follow the same walkthrough.  Just move the pages to the new name and add an infobox (and num=1 to the HN).  -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 20:39, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

== onepage usage ==


The onepage variable in the HN is only if the full guide is contained on only the front page.  If there are ''any'' subpages, it is not to be classified as onepage.  Another way of saying it is, the onepage attribute should ''only'' be used on the main page. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 20:33, 15 June 2007 (CDT)

:Yeah but theres no walkthrough for the game so I presumed it could all be on one page. I could move all the Apendices onto the main page but I think that might make it a bit too long. [[User:Poiuytre|Poiuytre]] 10:03, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
::I've set the walkthrough page to redirect to the Modes page, since that's as close to a walkthrough as you can get for the game. -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 10:11, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
:::Thanks. Also about the CoD2 Pocket PC, do you want me to move it all over onto a different page exclusively for the PPC version? See that could be hard because this site has nothing about the Pocket PC. There are no categories or anything, and it's not primarily a games console either.
::::Then it's a good time to start the category :) (and neither is [[:Category:Mobile]]) -- [[User:Prod|Prod]] ([[User talk:Prod|Talk]]) 10:21, 16 June 2007 (CDT)
== [[:Category:Box artwork]] ==
The category is reserved for box artwork alone (or the logo or main screen of the game if it doesn't have a box). Animated GIFs should not be used for it at all. I'd recommend that you take each frame and upload each one separately. Put the main screen in box artwork and the rest in screenshots. I will then subsequently delete the animated GIF (as it really has no place on this site). --{{User:Ryan Schmidt/sig}} 11:23, 22 June 2007 (CDT)
::Ok, sorry. [[User:Poiuytre|Poiuytre]] 11:31, 22 June 2007 (CDT)
== PGRM appendices ==
Hi. You're doing some good work on the [[Project Gotham Racing Mobile]] guide, but I was wondering what else could go on the [[Project Gotham Racing Mobile/Appendices|appendices]] page. Surely there'll only be cars, so why not just have a [[Project Gotham Racing Mobile/Cars|cars]] page, and scrap the appendix? I wouldn't have thought that the cars would be an afterthought in the reader's mind for a racing game, and appendices are generally only used for reference and fact-finding. Thanks, and keep editing! --[[User:DrBob|DrBob]] ([[User_talk:DrBob|Talk]]) 17:13, 29 June 2007 (CDT)
::I suppose, it's just that it's not a huge game like PGR3. I planned to have a list of cars with stats (which made up the bulk) then a list of tracks (which will be a few lines). Therefore I thought it would be a bit stupid to have it as two seperate pages. The same goes for the Getting Started page. I really think that the guide only needs three pages but by spliting them up most of the pages will look a bit bare and short. I'll try and add some pictures though. I'll do it this new way and if it doesn't look right I can always change it into the three pages. [[User:Poiuytre|Poiuytre]] 13:54, 30 June 2007 (CDT)
== Re: Call of Duty 2 ==
Hi Poiuytre, that sounds very good. I think I also want to expand upon the Multiplayer Maps page (some pics, maybe map strategies), and once the walkthrough is done you could add anything I've missed (or things unique to the 360 version) to my contributions and I could do the same to yours.
I sorta expected Snape to have been a good guy all along, but the whole loving Lily thing totally surprised me. I didn't like some of the deaths (Fred, Tonks), but I guess they had to be. I think that was my favorite book of the series, and now I'm just scouting online for any post-DH interviews that reveal more to that epilogue (cuz it wasn't very long). [[User:Baejung92|Baejung92]] 13:21, 28 July 2007 (CDT)
:Hey, I've been adding screenshots to The Silo mission and am having difficulty identifying which buildings the "Second" and "Third" houses are. Could you tell me what they're referred to alphabetically in the compass or mission objective? Thanks! [[User:Baejung92|Baejung92]] 17:14, 9 September 2007 (CDT)
