iirc then both wikipedia and beyondunreal are younger than Oldunreal...

Just be like "whatever" about it. Wikipedia is headed by bureaucratic snobs, worse than dealing with fucking lawyers. I honestly think everyone here should just let it die already... at least until 227 (final) is finally released. Until then, everyone expending effort is merely wasting their time.

I agree with Pcube. I'm outta there. When the final is out I'll place it back and if they remove it again, that's their own no-life problem.

The thing is, we don't have proof that they have the source, so unless they post it... :\
227 is proof enough. Noone could make such a patch without source. Aside from that, screw wikipedia, if they don't want the real info then crappity smack em. Sorry had to rant some. :P
Actually, showing that written and signed NDA is proof just as well...

http://www.wikinfo.org/index.php/Main_Page Much smaller than wikipedia, but they allow articles where you are the original source itself.
That's a welcome alternative to Wikipedia yes. Original research is good.

Looks like wikipedia is messing with others now as well.
