I was attempting to revise the wording of the last sentence in the History section to remove the '1 Vs. 1' specification. With the addition of 'Exhibition Matches', '2 vs. 1' and '2 vs. 2' matches are now a common occurrence. However, every attempt to edit was blocked as possible vandalism. Would someone please take a look at updating the sentence to end in something akin to: "... on matches played between CPU-controlled participants using the engine"?
Thanks!

A viewing of the whois database entry for www.elecbyte.com reveals that the domain was registered 1, June 1999 and will expire on 1, June 2008.

Boy oh boy, this page is hard to read. It's like I asked a local weeaboo to explain M.U.G.E.N. to me... But, I asked Wikipedia to! This should be written more like an encyclopedic article and not a readme or something. Honestly, I don't even see a reason to have maybe even 2/3 of the content that is here; the history of the program may interest some, but is this the place for it?
The characters section is particularly narrative also. I don't see a need for the arbitrary backstory to the characters. The bit about Kung Fu Man should be only about as long as its first paragraph.
What on earth?! We're not in a fantasy land.
It doesn't seem necessary to be so specific about the Maxine and Dragon Claw characters. Rather, a summary making the key points could get rid of both sections by mentioning that people commission characters, though few are completed (then citing a source), and that characters, noteably Dragon Claw, have been merchandised (cite source). I don't care how some guy paid a ludicrous amount of money for a girl version of himself he can use to whomp on people with, and I don't care that the Dragon Claw guy doesn't make enough money to cover his "hosting and such". Note the inappropriate tone in the phrase "and such".
The whole file structure section should be deleted. It's not useful information for the article, and it is WAY too long. If anyone cares about it, they probably can look at the files themselves, along with the documentation.
This article is longer than the entire article for Adobe Photoshop. Photoshop has had much more impact on things than mugen...
Other issues include:
Things like this are all over this article, making it hard to read through a line in one go.
It hasn't been a law that you have to register copyrights (in the US) for years.
Linking to something like derivative works could cut this chunk out. The same idea goes for many other parts of the article.
The MUGEN article isn't a place to re-explain copyright laws. Let Wikipedia do it. Also, that first part's a fragment, and a very confusing one, at that.
Summary:
Too many words. Little relevant content. Informal tone, syntax, and constructs. Needs more commas.

Apparently, dictionary.com refers to mugen as infinity.
This seems to make sense because of mugen's limitless customizable features. Maybe this is what Elecbyte meant when he made the engine.

How can it be an acronym when the 'N' clearly isn't punctuated? I think it's entirely for stylistic purposes, not an acronym. Of course, we can't say for sure, the 'N' being unpunctuated certainly is important. 24.12.26.88 ( talk) 00:44, 24 November 2008 (UTC)

I've noticed Kaos Machina tried to revert the vandalizing, but I think he picked the wrong version, as that version didn't really make all that sense either, so I've taken the liberty to actually revert it to the first un-vandalized version. Excuse me if I reverted it to a wrong version though.
-- GaryCXJk ( talk) 01:22, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
I don't trust this site because a lot of major MUGEN sites despised Vyx's doings to the MUGEN engine. He's doing a High Res, no, Hi-Definition MUGEN with he always sells it in the internet WITHOUT the original author's permissions. It's really against the rules of the fighting game engine and therefore, it's not a good thing to the MUGEN community. That link should be deleted or else.

BrokenMugenHD is not Mugen. A guy name Vyx changed an option in the configuration file of Mugen (Something that you are suppose to do anyway) And claimed he invented a new mugen. He also tried selling this not even hacked version of Mugen. The screenpack used in his non-version of mugen was not made by him, and is also considered stolen.
He is a thief and violating several copyright laws and apparently Wikipedia supports copyright infringement because they have not banned him. MOTVN ( talk) 02:27, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
Vyx is a user that changing configurations on the mugen engine ( like one is supposed to) decided to create a business model around it, claiming the engine as his own and claiming material done by others as being part of "his" business, then going around claiming to be the official thing. He has, amidst other things, tried to pretend to be other persons, advertized himself over the original copyrighted material, took over material done by others without any knowledge on it and claimed it his, threatened violence on members of the community( having effectively attacked one such member on the street), claimed to be rich and thus being above the law and made demands about having his publicity posted on personally owned websites and foruns.
He is considered a crook and a spammer, even by Elecbyte themselves ( the creators of the engine) http://elecbyte.com/forum/index.php?topic=386.msg3851#msg3851

The links have recently been edited to remove certain items. We all know there are litereally thousands of possible mugen related links of websites with content downloads and forum communitites. I am listing the reasons for each of the current links found here, please discuss if you disagree.
I should also note that all the sites listed below are over 3 years old since the person who was editing the links wrote that Random Select and Infinity Mugen Team were each less than 2 years old.
Acglass ( talk) 17:08, 6 November 2009 (UTC)
My bad, I was with the impression that infinity and infantry were both less than 2 years old ( not randomselect tho). I was trying to revert the link list to the one previous to vyx edits. I kinda failed a few times since im not that good with wikis. —Preceding

Some user is trying to suppress a valid and perfectly factual source. Reason invoked : does not require a source. My question is : who are you to decide it does not require a source? I think the reason invoked has no ground at all, and I consider this source removal vandalism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CobraSA ( talk • contribs)
...is calculated by computer software and can not be modified by users," is a fundamental misunderstanding of how computers work, and a somewhat-more-forgivable misunderstanding of how phpBB, the software they are using works. I can change how any software calculates numbers so long as it is installed on a machine on which I am an admin in a few hours, and that I can change how phpBB calculates numbers on any machine I have remote or physical access to in about 15 seconds. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 05:04, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
I'll see if a compromise is acceptable. WP:IRS tells us that a self-published site may be a reliable source for information about itself (see sections WP:UGC and WP:SELFSOURCE) I've added a sentence to the Customisation section noting that the source in question ("MUGEN archive") has about 40,000 user-contributed files available for download. That provides something for the lead to summarise, and probably is an acceptable piece of information for this topic. Considering the lamentable state of referencing throughout the rest of the article, I would have thought that efort would be better spent on trying to add sourced content to it. -- RexxS ( talk) 19:44, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
MUGENArchive is a "Fan Forum" to me without a doubt, CobraSA and Zuwed1 still deny this? also their behavior is disrespectful. Kurt R. (Zirukurt01) ✉ 16:52, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
Several single-purpose accounts have been edit-warring to insert a reference to mugenarchive.com into the lead of this article. I have offered a compromise that was acceptable to MjolnirPants, that is, mentioning the site specifically in the Customisation section and sourcing to itself per WP:SELFSOURCE. Nevertheless the campaign to insert the relatively unimportant site into the lead continues with no attempt to accept a compromise. That needs to be seen against the background of an earlier removal of mention of a dozen other similar sites from the article, including the Official Elecbyte website.
I conclude that this is a campaign conducted by fans of the mugenarchive.com site to promote their site. It's obvious that CobraSA and his meatpuppets are on a single agenda.
I therefore propose that we blacklist mugenarchive.com and remove all mention of the site to avoid future disruption. We can always discuss the other sites to give readers an idea about the number of characters created by users. -- RexxS ( talk) 16:14, 1 October 2017 (UTC)

The current potential M.U.G.E.N. successor.
I.K.E.M.E.N. started off as an open-source reimplementation of the M.U.G.E.N. engine compatible with not only all of it's previous resources, but coming with it's own set of unique features, almost all of which were never released on any of the latest M.U.G.E.N. builds.
While the last build of the original I.K.E.M.E.N. was posted in 2017, it was succeeded by I.K.E.M.E.N. Plus, which in turn was succeeded by I.K.E.M.E.N. Go recently, which is a "Google Go Programming Language" reimplementation of I.K.E.M.E.N. Plus that is still maintained by the original authors.

He seems to be after a constant of E-fame and self promotion over work he isnt even aware of how its done, always claiming to be a team of "workers" of which he is a "voice". User:Tareco —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.244.47.94 ( talk) 11:11, 5 November 2009 (UTC)
The links have recently been edited to remove certain items. We all know there are litereally thousands of possible mugen related links of websites with content downloads and forum communitites. I am listing the reasons for each of the current links found here, please discuss if you disagree.
I should also note that all the sites listed below are over 3 years old since the person who was editing the links wrote that Random Select and Infinity Mugen Team were each less than 2 years old.

My bad, I was with the impression that infinity and infantry were both less than 2 years old ( not randomselect tho). I was trying to revert the link list to the one previous to vyx edits. I kinda failed a few times since im not that good with wikis. —Preceding

I should also mention that all the above sites have 4 things in common, an active forum, original mugen content development, current updates and have been well established for over 4 years. Acglass ( talk) 10:40, 5 April 2010 (UTC)

Some user is trying to suppress a valid and perfectly factual source. Reason invoked : does not require a source. My question is : who are you to decide it does not require a source? I think the reason invoked has no ground at all, and I consider this source removal vandalism. — Preceding unsigned comment added by CobraSA ( talk • contribs)
...is calculated by computer software and can not be modified by users," is a fundamental misunderstanding of how computers work, and a somewhat-more-forgivable misunderstanding of how phpBB, the software they are using works. I can change how any software calculates numbers so long as it is installed on a machine on which I am an admin in a few hours, and that I can change how phpBB calculates numbers on any machine I have remote or physical access to in about 15 seconds. ᛗᛁᛟᛚᚾᛁᚱPants Tell me all about it. 05:04, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
I'll see if a compromise is acceptable. WP:IRS tells us that a self-published site may be a reliable source for information about itself (see sections WP:UGC and WP:SELFSOURCE) I've added a sentence to the Customisation section noting that the source in question ("MUGEN archive") has about 40,000 user-contributed files available for download. That provides something for the lead to summarise, and probably is an acceptable piece of information for this topic. Considering the lamentable state of referencing throughout the rest of the article, I would have thought that efort would be better spent on trying to add sourced content to it. -- RexxS ( talk) 19:44, 29 September 2017 (UTC)
MUGENArchive is a "Fan Forum" to me without a doubt, CobraSA and Zuwed1 still deny this? also their behavior is disrespectful. Kurt R. (Zirukurt01) ✉ 16:52, 30 September 2017 (UTC)
Several single-purpose accounts have been edit-warring to insert a reference to mugenarchive.com into the lead of this article. I have offered a compromise that was acceptable to MjolnirPants, that is, mentioning the site specifically in the Customisation section and sourcing to itself per WP:SELFSOURCE. Nevertheless the campaign to insert the relatively unimportant site into the lead continues with no attempt to accept a compromise. That needs to be seen against the background of an earlier removal of mention of a dozen other similar sites from the article, including the Official Elecbyte website.
I conclude that this is a campaign conducted by fans of the mugenarchive.com site to promote their site. It's obvious that CobraSA and his meatpuppets are on a single agenda.
I therefore propose that we blacklist mugenarchive.com and remove all mention of the site to avoid future disruption. We can always discuss the other sites to give readers an idea about the number of characters created by users. -- RexxS ( talk) 16:14, 1 October 2017 (UTC)
Hey can I add some images from my mugen like goku vs touma from Sagat stage or the training room? 950CMR ( talk) 15:30, 2 February 2021 (UTC)
The current potential M.U.G.E.N. successor.
I.K.E.M.E.N. started off as an open-source reimplementation of the M.U.G.E.N. engine compatible with not only all of it's previous resources, but coming with it's own set of unique features, almost all of which were never released on any of the latest M.U.G.E.N. builds.
While the last build of the original I.K.E.M.E.N. was posted in 2017, it was succeeded by I.K.E.M.E.N. Plus, which in turn was succeeded by I.K.E.M.E.N. Go recently, which is a "Google Go Programming Language" reimplementation of I.K.E.M.E.N. Plus that is still maintained by the original authors.
