A concern with AHI-3000

AHI-3000 has recently re-created Category:Comedy video games. I do not think this category should be revived. Comedy is very subjective when it comes to video games.

He has also recently created, Video games by narrative genre, which might need to be merged with Video games by theme, or in perhaps purged by creating a category called video games by topic, which would strictly only contain the video games categories that typically begin with "Video games about", as opposed to "Romance video games", "Western video games" etc QuantumFoam66 (talk) 04:23, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

@QuantumFoam66: Then go talk about it in Wikipedia:Categories for discussion instead of passive-aggressively gossiping about me specifically. You think I didn't notice this? AHI-3000 (talk) 04:25, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

@AHI-3000: Technically the proper place to talk about it would be at YOUR talk page, due to it being an issue with your editing, but you disingenuously delete legitimate concerns before they have run their course and fail to archive discussions, making it impossible to have a serious discussion. Please set up talk page archiving and stop removing things from your page and people will have less of a desire to talk "behind your back", as sending you a message seems to fall upon deaf ears.

@QuantumFoam66: Yes, the recreation should have probably been discussed at WP:VG before happening. There is no page for Comedy video game, only Comedy in video games because there is no such thing as a "comedy video game" genre. The category should not exist. I will go ahead and nominatae it for deletion. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 07:06, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

WPVG Announcements

Hey Zxcvbnm. I recently nominated IGN Convention for deletion, but it does not seem to appear in the WPVG Announcements template at WT:VG. Just wanted to know how to make it show up there. MK at your service. 15:54, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

@MKsLifeInANutshell: As far as I know it's auto updated on a delay so you should just wait for it to show up later. AfDs last for at least a week so there's definitely time. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 16:06, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Okay, thanks! MK at your service. 16:08, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Can I edit this rejected Draft?

I think I finally found something that might make Draft:The Henry Stickmin Collection notable for Wikipedia. I'm asking for permission to edit it because it seems to be conclusively rejected.

I found out that TyC Sports (The spanish page for it is better), an argentine sports channel that also covers video games, has covered Henry Stickmin in two articles, and this time they aren't just brief mentions! Obviously TyC Sports alone isn't enough coverage, but we also have the Screen Rant article, so that could make Henry Stickmin notable (according to this category, two reliable in-depth sources are the minimum). Screen Rant also gave Henry Stickmin some decent depth in this one.

Again, just making sure I can edit it, since I'm new to drafts. Bonus Person (talk) 01:28, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

Once Human

Once Human "is currently linked from a large number of articles" / "Please help direct these ambiguous links to articles dealing with the specific meaning intended". Thanks! --Jax 0677 (talk) 21:22, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

@Jax 0677: Fixed, sorry for the oversight. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:40, 20 July 2024 (UTC)

A barnstar for you!

The Original Barnstar

I know we butt heads at AfD a fair bit, but I'd like to give this to you either way. You've been consistently participating in AfDs to an extent that is genuinely impressive, and even if we disagree at times, your contributions to AfD have been highly positive over the past few years. Thank you for all you do there. Happy editing! Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 20:35, 24 July 2024 (UTC)

Romhacking.net

It is extremely rude to ruin people's hard work and redirect their stubs to other pages just because you don't know enough about a subject to see its relevance. Use the appropriate templates instead of replacing the full contents articles. -- Beqwk (talk) 17:23, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

@Beqwk: There is nothing rude about it, as I got consensus to redirect it here. That consensus does not have to include the article creator since you don't own any of your contributions. Please familiarize yourself with notability policy before making pages or they will likely be deleted or redirected in the same way. There's also WP:AFC if you want to avoid situations such as this. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 19:30, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

I will also add that with the new sources the article may be safe. But those didn't exist when you first created it. You should endeavor to add such sources when it's created and not expect people to find them for you. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 19:42, 3 August 2024 (UTC)

Feedback on drafts

Hey dude! I'm the guy who wrote the Bendy in Nightmare Run article, and i just noticed thst niche titles sre in your area of interest. With Bendy Run being one, i would like to gain feedback on how to make articles on these kinds of niche video game topics since it's usually hard to find media coverage or critic reviews about them. Best regards! OliDaHoli (talk) 18:33, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

@OliDaHoli: I tend to direct people to WP:AKON when people ask "hey, how does it become notable". In some cases the article just will never be notable enough, like many niche topics. It only has 2 full reviews from reliable sources, and the third one hinges on the Common Sense Media review as the others are from unreliable sources. Common Sense Media is very basic, and could fall under trivial coverage. Usually the bar is 3 full reviews to establish notability. That's why I said it's borderline, and you should probably just expand its section in the series article and move on to topics with more coverage. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:03, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

Ah, i see. Hopefully i have 2 more reviews that may fit the criteria to establish notability. If it is not notable i will expand the series article. Again, best regards! OliDaHoli (talk) 21:17, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I will make sure to double-check for reliability though. OliDaHoli (talk) 21:19, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

I may have a third one but i am not sure if these sources fit the criteria: TheGWW, NewsReports and Dreager1 (which i do not trust from first looks). So far TheGWW looks the most promising. OliDaHoli (talk) 21:36, 4 August 2024 (UTC)

@OliDaHoli: TheGWW: Doesn't seem reliable. I've literally never seen it used before as a source, and it doesn't list any editors. My guess is that the others are not reliable either. Again, I am speaking from experience that it should probably not be a page. Just "let it go", focus on improving its section in the series article, and move on to a different title that got more coverage. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 11:08, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

I did say i will proofcheck every website and submit a final time if one is found to be reliable. Since you didn't use theGWW i think you wouldn't know if it is reliable, which i agree with from first glance it doesn't seem reliable

I will not do that today, i'm no rusher, but this is just being 100% sure before i completely abandon the article.

Sorry if i seem stubborn. OliDaHoli (talk) 20:30, 5 August 2024 (UTC)

Oops think i read that wrong, you've never seen it used as a source. Sorry OliDaHoli (talk) 20:31, 5 August 2024 (UTC)
