Half-Life 2: Episode One

Half-Life 2: Episode Two

Half-Life 2: Episode Three

Half-Life 2: Lost Coast

Half-Life 2: Survivor

Codename: Gordon

After saving Half-Life 2 from FAR; bringing Episode One to FA; and Episode Two, Lost Coast, and Survivor to GA; and completing a PR on Episode Three, I believe this topic is now ready. It contains all Half-Life 2 video game titles. Gary King (talk) 22:19, 22 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comment - I think Codename: Gordon (a GA) should be included. Codename: Gordon wasn't developed by Valve, but its plot is based on that of HL2, and it was released by Valve to promote the at that time upcoming Half-Life 2 - rst20xx (talk) 01:38, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Whatever the consensus goes is fine with me. That article is GA so it can be added without any fuss. Gary King (talk) 03:51, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Yeah, I would include Codename Gordon due to the official backing and game delivery from Valve. As a side note, wouldn't it make more sense to wait for the other Half-Life expansions to get GA and just make a "Half-Life" titles FT?

I would support the addition of Codename Gordon, but I do not think it is necessary. Z gin der 2008-11-23T19:29Z (UTC)
I've added Gordon. Gary King (talk) 19:34, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support and David Fuchs, why wait? We can promote this now, and then expand it later - rst20xx (talk) 20:17, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
...Oh wait, only Opposing Force isn't a GA, and that's currently nominated... in that case maybe it would be worth putting this on hold for a bit, if needs be? It would be easier... rst20xx (talk) 20:24, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Before nominating this, I discussed it with S@bre, who I'm working with on the full Half-Life topic. This topic is being nominated early because to get the Half-Life topic to featured status, it will need one more featured article and Half-Life (series) still needs a significant amount of work. We're aiming to get this done by the end of the year, but it's not a promise. Gary King (talk) 22:10, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ahhh yes I forgot the series article. Now I feel silly. Ignore my suggestion for waiting then! rst20xx (talk) 23:17, 23 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Nicely done. Rreagan007 (talk) 15:11, 24 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Should this be renamed to simply "Half-Life 2"? –thedemonhog talk • edits 23:59, 29 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No, that would require the inclusion of Half-Life 2: Raising the Bar. Gary King (talk) 03:52, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

That sounds like a "Half-Life title" to me. –thedemonhog talk • edits 22:34, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

It could be renamed to "Half-Life 2 video games" then. The "titles" was to follow the convention set forth by existing topics at Wikipedia:Featured_topics#Video_gaming. Gary King (talk) 22:37, 30 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Close as consensus to promote - I think that the meaning of the "titles" name is implied by precedent. --Arctic Gnome (talk • contribs) 04:16, 2 December 2008 (UTC)[reply]
