Cleanup
editI cut back the gameplay section, trying to keep some of the relevant points. A lookover by someone familiar with the game would be good. --Lendorien 20:30, 14 October 2006 (UTC)
- I'm posting this back on cleanup. Someone reverted my edits after I fixed it and removed it from cleanup in Oct, claiming they were unfair based on the fact that Pac-man has a long description. This is little justification to keep it the way it was. I hate to say it, but what it was reverted to is a lengthly unpargraphed mess of poorly worded descriptions of the game that make little sense, are hardly readable and are not needed for an article about a game that is as non-notable as this one. I personally think that what I edited to it would have been fine and more concise, but I don't want to create a revert war here by going back to it myself. Maybe someone else can find a happy medium. See my original edit here. If you make changes, post on the Talk page to prevent a revert war with the original author. --Lendorien 16:31, 25 November 2006 (UTC)
- This is a reply to an old comment (and I archived a more recent and very massive entry further down on the page). I rewrote the page just a bit ago to conform with project guidelines and WP:TRIVIA. The current version should be a good point from which we can expand into areas such as cultural impact and reception. Hope it helps. — KieferSkunk (talk) — 21:40, 9 May 2008 (UTC)
Protection
editPlease do not add the {{sprotect}} template, since this page is not and has never been protected [1]. I do not see much vandalism here, and actually the last instance of it I could find is from September 2006. I have added this page to my watchlist, anyway, so that I could protect it if I see an unusual amount of vandalism here. Tizio 13:56, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
To elaborate a little more on this: a page is not protected by simply adding templates such as {{sprotect}} to it. It is protected via the form [2], which only works for administrators. Tizio 14:01, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
Musical score
editSo it isn't lost:
The musical score during gameplay contains the "Galop infernal" from Offenbach's Orpheus in the Underworld (better known as the "can-can"), and the intermission cutscene between levels plays Beethoven's Turkish March.
