Why was the Wikipedia page for SAIS's sequel, "Weird Worlds", removed?

[edit]

Noticed recently that the Wikipedia page for Weird Worlds: Return to Infinite Space, the more well-known sequel to Digital Eel's Strange Adventures in Infinite Space, doesn't exist anymore. Why was it removed? Can it be easily reinstated? 174.21.66.16 (talk) 00:35, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Also every link to Weird Worlds from this page and the Digital Eel Wikipedia page has been changed. 174.21.66.16 (talk) 00:49, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

The link to Weird Worlds on the Wikipedia "List of Roguelikes" has been changed. 174.21.66.16 (talk) 00:52, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Wrong stub

[edit]

"This strategy video game–related article is a stub. You can help Wikipedia by expanding it." - Whoops! SAIS is a roguelike, not a war/strategy/4X game. 50.54.231.219 (talk) 01:37, 29 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Excised "Game Credits"

[edit]

I removed the "Game Credits" section from this article, as it seems like minutiae unsuited to the purpose of Wikipedia. Should any of what was removed prove significant, please work into the article where appropriate. Removed content follows:

(snip)

Game credits

Design: Rich Carlson, Iikka Keränen
Code: Iikka Keranen
Art: Iikka Keranen, Rich Carlson, Bill "Phosphorus" Sears
Sound & Music: Rich Carlson
Fearless Testers: James Ernest, Kevin Matheny, Duncan McPherson, Joe Pallai, Richard Rouse III, John Slade, Thom Wetzel
Moral Support: Sarinee Achavanuntakul, John Bye, Drew Cady, Rasmus Ekman, James Fudge, John Keefer, Joerg Stelkens
Inspiration: John Butterfield, Fred Ford, Paul Reiche III, Gene Roddenberry, A.E. Van Vogt

Actually, this, or some of it, should be put back in. All computer games posted on Wikipedia list at least the top level of credits. Could someone with the know how fix this please? 71.35.103.206 (talk) 22:43, 24 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
This fix is long overdue. 174.21.66.16 (talk) 00:29, 9 September 2019 (UTC)[reply]

quick note on "Game Credits"

[edit]

The only important "credits" references are Fred Ford and Paul Reiche III, and that probably refers to Star Control 1-2 as inspiration of "infinite space" series (currently, two games).

Why? Obviously neither of them had anything directly to do with the development of the game. 50.54.231.219 (talk) 21:32, 28 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

In several interviews the SPI paper/board game, Voyage of the BSM Pandora (included in Ares #6), and the early EA computer game, Starflight, (both preceding Star Control II's release by several years) have been cited as primary inspiration for Strange Adventures, and the Infinite Space series, overall. That said, Star Control II has often been referred to by the makers of Infinite Space as having influenced the music in the first two Infinite Space games. Note the article "@Play 85: A Talk with Digital Eel, Makers of the Infinite Space Games" on Gamasutra for examples.
