I know it's a mess. I just started, it will take a while to have good shape. Klow 15:32, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

Prose-esque[]

I'd really love to rewrite this article like a decent synopsis, in prose style, like a story. So far I've written the Black Mesa Inbound section, but does it sound okay? Call me self-doubting or whatever, but I need feedback. Bramblepath 20:54, June 7, 2010 (UTC)

It's a good idea, but in my opinion the style does not really suit an encyclopedic article. You are inferring things not directly referenced in the game, such as Gordon 'nonchalantly' pushing the crystal into the beam. I think you should add as many details as you want, but try to keep to a more encyclopedic, less prosaic tone. 122.104.96.28 13:35, June 15, 2010 (UTC)

Agreed. This is supposed to be a description of a storyline, the artistic talent is in the game itself. Also, he doesn't have to do the microwave thing, you know. It's just fun. --Smelltheashes 03:37, September 3, 2010 (UTC)

Unexplained sound[]

Do we have any information on the bizarre sound in On a Rail? You all know the one I mean; you're just walking along in Chapter Eight, when you hear this really loud, unearthly scream. I looked around, but we don't seem to have anything on it. Anyway, I just thought maybe it should be included in the trivia section for "On a Rail". Sorryaboutthatchief 08:15, October 25, 2010 (UTC)

Trash Compactor[]

Should the trash compactor at the end of level 9 be considered a part of level 9, level 10, or as a transition stage? The next level isn't announced until you escape it, but it takes place in the same map as level 10, and has level 10's theme of building your arsenal back up.—Unsigned comment by 97.90.153.87 (talk | contribs)

Chapter 7[]

"It is also possible to kill the Gargantua using an excessive amount of explosives."

It may be possible in gameplay, but this article ought to stick to canon events. I think this sentence should be removed. -- Vektor0 (talk) 21:22, June 7, 2020 (UTC)
