Guides/Review

This page is for the community review of new guides. This is so the Guides page does not get filled up with nonsensical guides (like it was at one point,) and that their is a minimum standard of quality on the Guides page. Guides which pass this review have a template added to the page ({{GuideReviewed}}). Guides which do not pass a community review will not be added to the Guides page, but may still carry [[Category:Guides]]. This is so that guides that are deemed good and worthy by the community are easily findable by newer players, while less accurate guides can still be found, but aren't presented as prominently.

Guides are reviewed through a voting process. There are three eligible votes:

• Support - to indicate support for the guide's inclusion on the page
• Abstain - to not formally vote, but still offer input on the discussion
• Against - to indicate disapproval for the guide's inclusion on the page

After one week, the votes will be tallied.

• A guide which has more than 75% Support will be placed at a "Featured Guides" section at the top of the guides page
• A guide which has more than 50% Support will be placed on the page, in the appropriate section (survivor, zombie, or player killer.)
• A guide which has less than or equal to 50% Support will not be placed on the page
• Guides which don't attract any votes will not be placed on the page

General criteria which should be considered before a guide is included on the page are:

1. Formatting - There must be no obvious formatting errors in the text. The guide must work in all major browsers
2. Accuracy - The guide must be accurate
3. Clarity - The guide must be easy to read, with no obvious spelling or grammar errors.

Please note that neutrality and civility are not requirements.

Voting

Please add {{Guidesvoting}} on the guide before nominating it. Please inform the author if they are still active and can easily be found.

Against

1. Way to long for something that is just 'Hide in ruins and then after that, use common sense'. D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 09:30, 30 June 2009 (BST)

   Italics would have been more appropriate.--xoxo 12:04, 30 June 2009 (BST)

   Part of the reason it's long is because when I wrote it, there was a lot of opposition to the concept. People said it was madness, suicide -- or worse. Most were scared to give it a try. People were asking for detailed instructions... It had to be very detailed to get people to try it, to overcome their resistance. That, and the fact that I like to hear myself talk, of course... :) --WanYao 13:12, 30 June 2009 (BST)

   All i said was that italics would have been more appropriate, and it wasn't even directed at you. That response is entirely nonsensical and has left me very, very confused. If you remove a colon after i have made this post it will be vandalism as per precedent. --xoxo 13:24, 30 June 2009 (BST)

2. I don't think it's featured guide worthy, but I can easily vouch for its goodness. D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 09:31, 30 June 2009 (BST)
3. But why are those alliance/group categories on the page? -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 12:35 30 June 2009 (BST)

   Because it was written by and to a degree for Octapopers and they are part of the SW Alliance? --WanYao 13:13, 30 June 2009 (BST)

4. It's clear and to the point. Charming and relevant to survivors when a horde rolls through the suburb. Could use an update about hiding in darkened buildings. --_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 21:16, 30 June 2009 (BST)

1. but it is nice if you want to use it.--Bonghit420 18:13, 29 June 2009 (BST)

   Hence its usefulness as a guide, people that need help look for it and find it here. D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 16:55, 30 June 2009 (BST)

   I was voting on its merit, starting as a zombie, you MUST follow the groan you first here on your first day in Malton, There could be a chance of the doors being closed, The guide is not fully complete, therefor it should not be presented ahead of somthing that could be better.--Bonghit420 00:16, 8 July 2009 (BST)

Guides:A Beginners Guide to Urban Dead

As above

For

1. It's a detailed guide but it has become dated (doesn't include any information about ruin). Also it should be renamed "A Beginning Survivor's Guide to Urban Dead". With a few small changes it would be totally boss. --_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 17:09, 29 June 2009 (BST)
2. As Giles - It's a bit outdated, but with some touching up should be great. It just needs some updating. Besides that, it's fine.-- Adward  18:10, 29 June 2009 (BST)
3. Good guide, but yeah, could do with some updating. --D.E.ATalk 12:03, 30 June 2009 (BST)
4. I'm all for it, but it's my guide. Thanks be to whomever nominated it. Like DDR states below, it's a great portal for all the new comers. What those below are missing is the fact that that was what it was supposed to be: a one stop shopper; so to speak... -Poodle of doom 23:07, 3 July 2009 (BST)
5. Needs updated, but still better than that stupidly biased "First Day in Malton" Guide.--
   
   | T | BALLS! | 00:51 8 July 2009

Against

1. I say make an entirely new one. --Haliman - Talk 02:30, 30 June 2009 (BST)
2. Appears to be kind of a compilation of the various wiki entries. Offers no real insight into playing that isn't found elsewhere. --WanYao 07:30, 30 June 2009 (BST)
3. Far too long, invoking the TL;DR syndrome in newbs. Most of it looks like straight cut'n'pastes from other pages. The effort needs to be put in tailoring this info so that the main points are explained with links to the in depth look at each section that are already elsewhere on the wiki -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 12:24 30 June 2009 (BST)
4. It's a nice portal for all the newbie info, but for that reason, it is daunting and I expect noobs to be able to just search for this info themselves (the parts they specifically want, anyway). D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 15:38, 30 June 2009 (BST)

Relating to changing sides (ie: getting a revive, or window diving.)

Guides:Beyond average damage

Guide relating to thinking about combat more tactically

For

1. Introduces and explains some useful ideas. As an older guide it doesn't include information on darkened buildings or the flare gun/fuel can combo attack. Nothing a little updated section can't fix. --_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 17:18, 29 June 2009 (BST)

Guides:Real-Time Fighting

Guide about fighting in real time

1. It had to be addressed somewhere. Again, like all of the old guides there needs to be an update on fighting in darkened buildings, but good nonetheless. --_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 17:36, 29 June 2009 (BST)

9. --Bob Boberton ^{TF / DW} 03:16, 7 July 2009 (BST)

Against

1. The only practical reason for a survivor to participate in a R/T fight is when defending a building, and this doesn't cover that, at all. And a zombie in a R/T fight is at a real disadvantage (unless the survivor has something to stay and fight for) because he can't follow inside usually -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 12:14 30 June 2009 (BST)
2. Why participate in real-time fighting outside? If you are XPing, then use your AP killing said opponent till you have no AP/HP then go inside. As zombie, stand there attacking. Otherwise, don't do it. Simple. That's my outisde RT fighting guide. D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 15:47, 30 June 2009 (BST)

The right build for you

Guide about character builds

For

1. Good article. --WanYao 07:35, 30 June 2009 (BST)
2. I do like this. Simply and to the point. D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 15:52, 30 June 2009 (BST)

Against

1. This is actually a pretty good article. But the same info is organized in greater detail in Guides:Meta-Careers.--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 06:33, 30 June 2009 (BST)

   You are against an article because there is a different guide which you think is better? D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 15:52, 30 June 2009 (BST)

   "You are against an article because there is a different guide (covering the same subject) which you think is better?" Yes. Why feature multiple articles on the same subject laying out the same info over and over again? Choose the best and go with it.--_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 21:40, 30 June 2009 (BST)

   #New guide. --Haliman - Talk 02:33, 30 June 2009 (BST) - Nevermind. Guides:Meta-Careers --Haliman - Talk 02:35, 30 June 2009 (BST)

2. Doesn't explain/compare the differences between pure killing, and FAKing up. This isn't giving alternative builds, it's telling you what build this guy thinks is best, a private using firearms (and if you don't choose that, then how to make your choice into a firearm specialist) -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 12:08 30 June 2009 (BST)

Against

1. Fuck no--Bonghit420 18:16, 29 June 2009 (BST)

   This should be common since. No guide needed for this, just avoid people who act like this.--Bonghit420 18:28, 29 June 2009 (BST)

2. Meh. I hate being told how express myself in such rigid terms. I also don't agree with many of the examples, anyway --WanYao 07:40, 30 June 2009 (BST)
3. Some of Malton's most notorious groups lack civility.--xoxo 09:20, 30 June 2009 (BST)

   Me, me, me... -- boxy ^{talk • teh rulz} 11:50 30 June 2009 (BST)

Guides:Meta-Careers

About the role one plays within the game.

For

1. An obsessively organized analysis of the different career paths. I'm not sure it's useful to new players but it's just loaded with info. --_GANG Giles Sednik _CAPD 17:42, 29 June 2009 (BST)
2. Yup --WanYao 07:40, 30 June 2009 (BST)
3. Its useful for group building and for organizing your group --Supflidowg 17:41, 3 July 2009 (BST)

5. --Bob Boberton ^{TF / DW} 03:16, 7 July 2009 (BST)

Against

1. I just don't think this guide teaches anyone anything of value. --xoxo 09:22, 30 June 2009 (BST)
2. The Zombie bit is cool but the Survivor bit is a little silly, it should really be a third the size, at leased. It's teaching survivors that there are many careers, 75% of which are boring and uninspiring. D^ANCED^ANCER^EVOLUTION (TALK | CONTRIBS) 15:56, 30 June 2009 (BST)
