Help the love2d wiki page!

[rokit boy]

I created a wiki page for love 2d... Put more in! Put syntax, make it a proper wikipedia page! I spent two seconds on what it has right now.

That'd be the fourth incarnation, then, I suppose. It will probably be deleted soon. (As all our previous ones have been.)

Well, back then we didn't have any big media exposure. Now that Mari0 has been put on gaming blogs, try to work it in as a Citation.

Though I think you need at least three credible sources.

I think our "big media exposure" is still not anywhere near the level the Wikipedia police would want to see before letting someone add the article.

EDIT: by the way, it's LÖVE, not Love2d, love2d, or anything like that. The website is love2d.org, yes, but Gmail isn't called mail.google either.

The page is somewhat empty. Still, I love LOVE!

What about expanding this?

rokit boy, your article is absolutely terrible. The fact that it hasn't been removed yet astounds me. Also, LÖVE is called LÖVE, not Love 2d or anything like that.

I did expand on that and created a full article once, but it was also removed. I don't know what happened to that updated article. I'll see if I can get the Wikipedia staff to move it to my userspace.

I am genuinely impressed by how negative and condescending your reply was, thelink. /golfclap

I can see that the article is not encyclopedia-level material, but it gets the message across and contains the relevant basic information. If I was curious about Löve/love2d* I'd find my basic answers here.

I don't really have any experience with wikipedia standards. What would be required for an article about Löve to actually be admitted permanently?

*not love2, not love, not.,.. IOMGNMDSFKBGIGIW! stop the constant berating, please. It alienates people.

That's a little harsh. His intentions were good.


Hehe. Browsing through the page history I found this little gem:

Love2d is an open source 2d game framework. It uses lua for easy coding.

Did a quick look there. Wouldn't be good say in the main article text that is also cross-plataform and in which ones run (besides the small fact box)?
And instead of say almost redundant things like "love.audio - Provides an interface to generate sound output." and "love.sound - Provides an interface to decode sound files." wouldn't be more useful instead refer what libraries use (like Libmodplug, OGG Vorbis and so support modules tracks, OGG's) and so on? It's slightly more informative and could contribute for avoid deletion.

Also would be nice present and explain an example of Love code with the callbacks structure that is matter of fact Love2D skeleton and unique to the framework (since it would be irrelevant present Lua code examples.).
