Base game
I think a link to the base game page ([Arkham Horror]) under the Game Play section would be good - it can be difficult to notice under the title.
Should featured articles link to themselves?
Hey team. I see many of the scenarios are featured articles on the front page. It looks like the main page is not directly editable by just anyone, so I'm throwing this here. When I see the featured article, it mentions the name of a scenario, but provides no link. e.g. "Miscreants and Miscreation is scenario four. It was first published on August 21, 2008." Do you think the title of each scenario could be changed to link to that scenario's wiki page? It would be really handy for getting to the information. e.g. the text could read "Miscreants and Miscreation is scenario four. It was first published on August 21, 2008." What do you think? --Culix 05:37, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
- I wikified all featured articles as you requested. Keith 18:47, 31 March 2009 (UTC)

Player Locator
Could someone add a link on this page to an new one where I could put information on players and their whereabouts (name suggestion: see title ;) )? I would make a table with countries, regions/states, cities, real-life names, nicknames. I already have some collection from over at the FFG forum and would like to post it here. The Main Page seems to me to be the right place to put a link... The King in Green 18:23, 20 April 2009 (UTC)
- The league article from the main page would be a great place to launch this project from.Keith 13:09, 15 June 2009 (UTC)
Innsmouth Rulebook
Can the admins add a link to the Innsmouth Horror rulebook? It's been up for a while and it should make the front page. McCaber 15:26, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Strategy
I can't currently find a decent strategy guide for Arkham on the web, so I'm going to add strategy stubs to the wiki. Any objections? --Shiningmongoose 09:37, 19 July 2009
- Hmm, if we are looking to make this wiki a neutral source of info on the game, like Wikipedia, I'm not sure if this would be the place for strategy discussion. But if we are looking to make this wiki the best general of info on the game, where you can come to read all of the rules as well as a basic strategy overview, a strategy guide like that would fit in very well. (I asked this question before on the community portal page; I'm not sure how the community feels). Personally I think a strategy guide sounds great. We could at least do a brief overview of what general strategies or moves work well. Even if you want to argue that the wiki should be NPOV I think there is room for some strategy material.
- In short, I say go for it! I'll try to help if I can. Are you thinking one big strategy page or several blurbs on multiple articles? --Culix 04:38, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
A strategy section would make sense. That would make this place "All things Arkham Horror" - perhaps a good slogan? (Sidebar: Wikipedia.org got lots of pages that are POV so even they are not enforcing there own policies.) --Fireblaze 18:25, 20 July 2009 (UTC)
I'd like to add another vote for a strategy guide, at least a basic one for newbies to the game. I read discussions various places saying "The base game is too easy", but while I understand the goals for winning, after a couple games I'm not finding it that easy yet. Just played a solo game for practice, with 3 investigators, and while I didn't lose, it just dragged on and on for 6 hours or so, until I had to clean up and put it away. --Notfilc 07:20, 28 October 2009 (UTC)
