[edit] Logo redone

After seeing the note on my talk page, I have redone the logo I created for the original WikiProject to reflect the fact the project is now a task force. If you have any suggestions or improvements leave me a message. Xtreme racer 03:07, 26 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Game lists?

Do we know if all the Atari game lists are complete? Govvy 06:55, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

Which lists? The Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Atari/List of Atari entries? Or all the sub-lists (console/computer specific game lists)? --Marty Goldberg 07:57, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
Well, the list I normal keep an eye on is List of Atari Lynx games. But I don't think it is complete, also, I think at the top of the list it should say how many games where released for the lynx. Then I was hoping to use that to go through the articles, create the ones that need to be created. ect. Govvy 16:08, 31 October 2007 (UTC)
If its not complete, then feel free to make it so. That's what we're here for. :) Just make sure to add any games to the master list of Atari entries that you add to the Lynx list. --Marty Goldberg 22:17, 31 October 2007 (UTC)


[edit] Notable 3rd party games and publishers?

I had previously mentioned that only 3rd party publishers that had a working relationship with Atari (i.e. GCC) would be covered here. What do you guys think of including notable 3rd party games in the scope of the task force as well? I.e. games that were well known but not done or published by the original Atari for their consoles and computers? M.U.L.E. comes to mind, as does some of the Activision titles for the 2600 as examples. We'd need to come up with a guideline for notability on including 3rd party games under the task force. --Marty Goldberg 22:24, 31 October 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Atari entry to featured article status

Cleaned up and rewrote the article summary/intro. Besides references and rewriting for the rest of the article, we still need a visual table that makes the ownership of properties easier to follow. I'm going to draw one up in a .png and see about getting someone to do it as a wikichart. --Marty Goldberg 04:53, 7 November 2007 (UTC)
