Default Adamant gets Wikified

For a school project I had to create a new Wikipedia article. Seeing as everything interesting under the sun was already covered, I decided to make one on Adamant Mod. What do you think?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adamant_Mod

Well, I hope your project is due soon; the main Wikipedia has a tendancy to delete articles that are deemed not significant enough.

pffft. If Counter Strike and a host of other Half Life mods are significant enough, Adamant is.

Besides, I just have to turn in the code I used to create the article.

What did you think of the article?

To quote internet idiots everywhere"

"To long, didn't read."

Actually: I'm not sure the version history needs to be on there, though it might be standard for Wiki articles on software.

You -really- don't need the Play By Web link, unless you want to add something on how good/bad the AI is and suggest human players instead.

Other than that it seems fine.

It seemed too short without it. Some other mod entries I looked at had tidbits of version histories, so I figured I might as well put it in.

Well the intro does have this: "Adamant focuses primarily on multiplayer gameplay, with only adequate AI support for single player gaming." I figured a way to play it in multiplayer would be useful info. Should I make it more explicit?

Thanks.

To Narf:
Well, dry is fine at this point.

'fied' - Generally added at the end of a word to turn it into a verb.

Informative and somewhat interesting. However, it's kinda dry.
