Also relate it to the Unreal Engine and UnrealEd because it explains most of the stuff involved with the project such as changing the resolutions and dimentions.

This is radical, but how about some screenshots of the project? Eh? Eh? Please...? This is good, I found the HDTP through the existing Deus Ex article, so we're bound to ensnare more innocents...

Yeah I threw up a link to it from the main Deus Ex articles quite some time ago. Screenshots are definitely possible. Also if HDTP has an official logo and I get permission to use it I can add it to the article. Or if not I'm sure I can use it anyway under fair use rights! HAHA

I just fleshed out the HDTP article a bit. I think I added some useful stuff which isn't immediately available on the website (unless of course one is inclined to study the mod/tex list for oneself). Feel free to edit/add anything you like, that's what Wikipedia is there for.

And in the beginning, there was an unintelligible wasteland. And then God said, 'Yea, let us categorise this void through the use of a public encyclopaedia.' And thus God made his creation alterable by the general and surprisingly illiterate societies that dwelled upon his other lesser-praised invention ? earth. And hence there was much rejoicing, and God was glad -- until somebody wrote an entry under God saying ?O Most Holy Father: Screw you, I don?t believe you exist.? And God was perplexed, not only because this statement was ridiculously contradictory, but also because he had lost the relevancy of this text to anything even vaguely related to Deus Ex.

Well, to be honest the reasons for deletion are fair. Wikipedia is not an advertising tool. Still, I very much appreciate your enthusiasm.

Yes, Wikipedia isn't supposed to be used as an advertising medium -- but then again, England isn't supposed to be holding the Ashes. My point is simple... I think. I've kinda forgotten what it was.
