As explained [https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=F-Zero_99&diff=prev&oldid=1181553430 here], these names add no meaningful context. The only [[Template:Infobox video game|popular persons]] to F-Zero and/or Nintendo are in the development section. I try to stay clear of [person] does [role] simply for the sake of having it. The infobox itself is optional despite "every" article has one. Maybe seek a third opinion at the Wikiproject. {{ping|Boyohboy231}}, [[User talk:Ryūkotsusei|<span style="font-size:120%;font-family:Old English Text MT;color:#666666">«&nbsp;Ryūkotsusei&nbsp;»</span>]] 22:29, 27 February 2024 (UTC)

:what is your purpose of omitting the work of the people who made this game? why are you doing that? it doest matter what you do or do not, we as editors should make it clear as much as we can at the very least on the lead staff, its the bare minimum to credit them in this page, a thing that 99% of the game pages do. In 10 years of editing wikipedia this is the first time ive seen someone doing that [[User:Boyohboy231|Boyohboy231]] ([[User talk:Boyohboy231|talk]]) 15:32, 2 March 2024 (UTC)

Revision as of 21:46, 2 March 2024

More coverage needed

I would like to see more coverage like DT and TechRadar that actually reviews the game and not just regurgitate the announcement per WP:GNG. This will deter the "need" to add improperly cited material. I already had to remove originally researched development information here. « Ryūkotsusei » 18:30, 17 September 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox credit fields

As explained here, these names add no meaningful context. The only popular persons to F-Zero and/or Nintendo are in the development section. I try to stay clear of [person] does [role] simply for the sake of having it. The infobox itself is optional despite "every" article has one. Maybe seek a third opinion at the Wikiproject. @Boyohboy231:, « Ryūkotsusei » 22:29, 27 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Readers do not gain anything significant from knowing these roles,[1] particularly in the context of the article's development section - why/how this game exists. Mentioning NST is sufficient. its the bare minimum to credit them in this page. According to whom? Is this in a manual of style? Maybe seek a third opinion at Wikiproject VG. « Ryūkotsusei » 21:38, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
