Thanks for your edits on the Honor in Vengeance II article, I've read over the notability guidelines before writing the article and felt the game had enough sources to be proven. The game is on the Xbox Live Marketplace, which accounts for a lot, and was reviewed by Dealspwn which is a well known community in the UK gaming scene. I agree that the blog review and other site's reputation isn't as big, but both sites are well established in the indie community. I've seen a large number of other indie games with sometimes literally nothing cited survive for years, so I felt like I did a pretty good job with this article. Let me know! Cheers. --[[ |

Ace Combat 6: Fire of Liberation
While editing the Ace Combat 6 online community, I felt the topic wasn't relavent to article and believe it should be deleted. However, I don't know for sure if it needs to be deleted and I believe it should be decided by you and not by me.71.184.217.18 (talk) —Preceding undated comment added 23:57, 6 April 2011 (UTC).

Orphaned non-free image File:Dirt 3 logo.png
Thanks for uploading File:Dirt 3 logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).
If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of "file" pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Skier Dude2 (talk) 03:53, 14 April 2011 (UTC)
about the discussion on the ps3 page

Speedy deletion nomination of PlayStation Network outage/Timeline
A tag has been placed on PlayStation Network outage/Timeline, requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done for the following reason:
Under the criteria for speedy deletion, articles that do not meet basic Wikipedia criteria may be deleted at any time.
If you think that this notice was placed here in error, contest the deletion by clicking on the button labelled "Click here to contest this speedy deletion," which appears inside of the speedy deletion ({{db-...}}) tag (if no such tag exists, the page is no longer a speedy delete candidate). Doing so will take you to the talk page where you will find a pre-formatted place for you to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. You can also visit the the page's talk page directly to give your reasons, but be aware that once tagged for speedy deletion, if the page meets the criterion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag yourself, but don't hesitate to add information to the page that would render it more in conformance with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, you can contact one of these administrators to request that the administrator userfy the page or email a copy to you. tblack93 Talk · Contributions 20:23, 1 May 2011 (UTC)
Zenonia 3 categories
Hello, I noticed that you changed date categories for the [[Zenonia 3] article so that the game is now classified as an "upcoming game for 2011". Zenonia 3 was released worldwide on the iOS platform in April, so I do not understand the reason for the category change. LovesMacs (talk) 13:39, 7 May 2011 (UTC)
- My mistake. I missed the April date and saw the "plans to release the game on the Android Market by June 2011" and jumped to the wrong conclusion. - X201 (talk) 10:50, 8 May 2011 (UTC)
- No harm done, that's an easy mistake to make. Thanks for fixing the categories. LovesMacs (talk) 20:21, 9 May 2011 (UTC)
Re: Status field
*Facepalm* I can't remember why I did that, but since it was me I can only assume it was for things like "defunct". Guess I should probably update the thread to reflect this huh? Still, since it seems to be being used for online status there's probably still room for a discussion on that side of things. Alphathon /'æl.f'æ.θɒn/ (talk) 12:48, 11 May 2011 (UTC)
Online Game Release Dates
You reverted an edit I did, with the justification that I was using the "Incorrect use of INT - INT has a special meaning in video games - Is not a synonym for Worldwide." As you seem to be more knowledgeable about this than I am, what would you suggest I use instead? I need something to differentiate an online release date and a retail (boxed) release date in an article. Comrade Hamish Wilson (talk) 00:00, 19 May 2011 (UTC)
Eden Eternal
Why did you remove the 2011 video games category from Eden Eternal? Is it because the public release date has not been announced for 2011? Kevinmon•talk•trib 00:53, 26 May 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Invizimals The Lost Tribes.jpg

Could you take a look at this Perpetuum article and see it's published?
I think this guy did a decent job on the article. I'm not sure why the page was deleted, even after reading the "editors" comments. [Perpetuum] - this link is to his user page here where he built the article - based upon the EVE online page which is published here.
The game is out of Hungary - in multiple languages. it has write-ups in massively, mmorpg.com has a forum for it and articles on it, tentonhammer has articles and write-ups on it... There's even a stub on the game in fr.wikipdia. Checking across languages, I found dozens of hits and just in English plenty of press that should justify an article's creation. The foundation document is done.
Net effect: Little more than a brief format/content review and the article should be good to go.
Thanks,

File source problem with File:Flower.png
Thank you for uploading File:Flower.png. I noticed that the file's description page currently doesn't specify who created the content, so the copyright status is unclear. If you did not create this file yourself, you will need to specify the owner of the copyright. If you obtained it from a website, please add a link to the page from which it was taken, together with a brief restatement of the website's terms of use of its content. If the original copyright holder is a party unaffiliated with the website, that author should also be credited. Please add this information by editing the image description page.
If the necessary information is not added within the next days, the image will be deleted. If the file is already gone, you can still make a request for undeletion and ask for a chance to fix the problem.
Please refer to the image use policy to learn what images you can or cannot upload on Wikipedia. Please also check any other files you have uploaded to make sure they are correctly tagged. Here is a list of your uploads. If you have any questions or are in need of assistance please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you. Shizhao (talk) 00:43, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
Template: Video game cover fur
Just in case you didn't release, "Video game cover fur" is a redirect to "Non-free use rationale video game cover", so that probably should be what "Vgboxart fur" is being changed to instead if your looking to avoid the redirect. Salavat (talk) 12:55, 22 August 2011 (UTC)
Notability
Thanks for your edits on the Honor in Vengeance II article, I've read over the notability guidelines before writing the article and felt the game had enough sources to be proven. The game is on the Xbox Live Marketplace, which accounts for a lot, and was reviewed by Dealspwn which is a well known community in the UK gaming scene. I agree that the blog review and other site's reputation isn't as big, but both sites are well established in the indie community. I've seen a large number of other indie games with sometimes literally nothing cited survive for years, so I felt like I did a pretty good job with this article. Let me know!
