Some games have gone so large that they're used to advertise Roblox and even have their own merchandise in the Roblox toy line. I dunno about proper sources, but I did see a Kotaku article on Pokemon Brick Bronze.[[Special:Contributions/72.204.22.52|72.204.22.52]] ([[User talk:72.204.22.52|talk]]) 15:01, 15 October 2017 (UTC) |

- The only way we can include them in this article is if they're reliably sourced. As in, covered by third-party websites. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 17:35, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
- Yeah, fan content like that isn't inherently notable - it needs to be covered in reliable, third-party sources for us to write about it. You can find a list of reliable sources that often write about video games at WP:VG/RS.--IDVtalk 17:49, 3 August 2017 (UTC)
- The short version is no, "creepypastas" are not generally the the type of thing an encyclopedia would cover, no. Please do not add this to the article.Sergecross73 msg me 18:17, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

Question Returning: Where did half the content go?
I come back and I see half of everything is gone. I mean, I guess the banners are gone, but a ton of content is gone now. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Epicandrew1220 (talk • contribs) 14:33, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
- We at WP:VG have noticed a lot of unsourced additions, WP:FANCRUFT and WP:GAMECRUFT added throughout this page's history. See WP:NOTMANUAL and WP:NOTCHANGELOG for more details. jd22292 (Jalen D. Folf) (talk) 14:37, 25 September 2017 (UTC)
- Fair enough. Well, could we at least include the Developer Exchange in the page? A lot of these media outlets talk about the monetary gain of the developers and there are a couple articles on it. It's also an important and big part of the game. Epicandrew1220 (talk) 15:21, 3 October 2017 (UTC)

Is it necessary to list very popular games on Roblox on this article?
Some games have gone so large that they're used to advertise Roblox and even have their own merchandise in the Roblox toy line. I dunno about proper sources, but I did see a Kotaku article on Pokemon Brick Bronze.72.204.22.52 (talk) 15:01, 15 October 2017 (UTC)
