Ok, this is not a work in progress anymore. I'm pretty much done here and will only complement the text with various other demos or screenshots or whatever I can find from now on. If anyone spots any mistakes or areas that could be improved, feel free to have a go at them or point them out here so I can make the necessary corrections. --Masta (talk) 06:58, 5 April 2013 (EDT)

By far one of the best and most through pages on the wiki! Amazing work, Masta! --Reagan (talk) 13:47, 6 April 2013 (EDT)

Thanks a lot! I actually forgot to add all those links to the various terms and names. I will do so the next time I'll go through the various sections. --Masta (talk) 14:02, 6 April 2013 (EDT)

I took care of 2010-today. A start at least. --afiNity

This is good! I'm really not confident enough to write on that part due to my lack of familiarity, so I'm happy if others expand on it. I also see that you found out why I bugged you about those demos a while back. I tried to keep the demo section short and concise, only adding the most important or the most rare demos in there, but I'm happy with the result. --Masta (talk) 02:46, 3 May 2013 (EDT)

Ye good job so far with this article, I will also add a few demos. So far this page is just (more or less) about the ESL. Would be nice to have something more about MBII, CTF etc. Might have to restructure parts of the article or otherwise it will become really confusing (mixing ESL, MBII, CTF and so on). --AfiNity (talk) 06:32, 3 May 2013 (EDT)

I thought that might be a problem. I'd suggest adding new sections about the other gamemodes after section 2 and before section 3, so it goes like 1. History of Sabering, 2. Big Four of Sabering, 3. History of CTF, 4. History of MBII, then 5. Notable (Saber-only?) Games with Demos, 6. Notable CTF Games with Demos, 7. Notable MBII Games with Demos etc etc. I think keeping the demos at the very end would look best. How's that? I wanted to somehow put the Big Four under section 1, but I'm not sure if that looks good. About the demos: I've gone to great lengths to stick with quality over quantity, i.e. only added the best and most important ones. After all, we have democloud for the rest. I'm sure you will stick to that principle as well! Or better yet: Maybe we could discuss any additions to the pre-2010 demos individually? Anything from 2010-2013 I have no clue about, so I'd love if you were to add some of those. --Masta (talk) 07:28, 3 May 2013 (EDT)

Ok sounds good, but I think the big four should be a sub-point within '1. History of Sabering'. So you'd have 1. History of Sabering 2. History of CTF 3. History of MBII 4. JA+ (if there is any history) 5. Notable Games with demos. And everything else in subitems imo. I think you already own all my good demos from pre-2010 so I will only add 2010-2012 demos anyway. --AfiNity (talk) 07:47, 3 May 2013 (EDT)

I'm debating as to whether or not to entirely remove the section on the Big Four. It's more of an essay or an analysis than actual wiki material. --Masta (talk) 08:21, 20 April 2014 (UTC)

I'm not sure. I think that section is slightly subjective cause there are more clans which could be included into this list. --Balthor (talk) 09:13, 21 April 2014 (UTC)
