Notability and primary sources
Concerning :
The game is not commercial so probably lacks the third party coverage of many gamesites and magazines (since they often receive pay for publishing articles on a game). I added one reference from IGN, and an interview on a game development site so I think this is sufficient third party coverage to remove the tags. Ofcourse its not much but as I said, this game is not being commercially developed. Wiki1609 (talk) 15:37, 10 February 2008 (UTC)
- Actually, this is quite notable. It is a polished, professional-quality(judging from screenshots), freeware game. Freeware games are not exactly a majority, and few are this impressive. I think that qualifies as notability. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.105.70.83 (talk • contribs) 01:34, 10 January 2009
Image update
Could someone update the images? They are a few years out of date. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brightgalrs (talk • contribs) 03:33, 9 February 2009 (UTC)
Free software?
I've added the Free software strategies category. However, I'm not sure this was the right move now that I see it's not out yet. GPL is only enforced on something that's released - distributed. This is not, so it's doubtfully free software at this point. Weather it now qualifies for the "future free strategy" is to be seen in the said future. After the feature on Slashdot, I don't think 0AD development team needs any more hype. It's time to release it. Share your thoughts - should the category stay? --Paxcoder (talk) 18:14, 27 September 2009 (UTC)
- 0 A.D's source code has been released. It is free software, at this point. I don't see why it wouldn't qualify for "future free strategy" right now. Wildfire games is not looking for hype, they are legitimately working on the game, try to be a bit more patient. In conclusion, you have not given any legitimate reasons as to why it should be removed from the "free software" category. --Sir Robert "Brightgalrs" Schultz de Plainsboro 19:03, 14 February 2010 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Brightgalrs (talk • contribs)

0 A.D. (game) → 0 A.D. (video game) – It needs to follow basic naming conventions:

- Unique name, no need for the (video game) part Brightgalrs (/braɪtˈɡæl.ərˌɛs/)[1] 22:01, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
- "0 A.D." to most people means the year 0 (year), or the zero of some other year counting system, not some routine videogame Anthony Appleyard (talk) 22:06, 1 August 2011 (UTC)
- 0 A.D. doesn't exist as a year in the Gregorian calendar. Anyone searching for "0 A.D." (and hoping to find out if it exists) would get:
