	For your contributions to bring League of Legends (estimated annual readership: 1,400,000) to Featured Article status, I hereby present you the Million Award. Congratulations on this rare accomplishment, and thanks for all you do for Wikipedia's readers! — ImaginesTigers (talk) 00:51, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

ferret, this is really late, but I want to give you this to show that this one's as much yours as it is mine. Thanks so much for all the research assistance; I can't express my appreciation enough. — ImaginesTigers (talk)

Vgmdb isn't reliable source?

Seems incredibly reliable and trustworthy to me, and it's been used in the past often. 101.181.21.72 (talk) 14:57, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Unreliable, regardless of whatever other articles it may have been added to, per WP:VG/RS and WP:USERG. User generated sites by definition are unreliable. -- ferret (talk) 15:24, 9 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello

Hi Ferret. While creating DreamDoll I noticed that it had been salted by you. I believe she's significantly more notable than she was when her corresponding title was salted. She's since charted on Billboard and this google search for references brings up a lot to work with. may you please unsalt the title? versacespace leave a message! 12:13, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

(talk page watcher) I'll wait for ferret to comment, because I don't want to step on his toes, but I did a search and I can say there probably is an argument for notability now. While not exactly significant coverage, she was mentioned in an NPR 2020 female rapper feature. Sergecross73 msg me 12:52, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@VersaceSpace and Sergecross73: I honestly don't even remember this. I suspect I was fulfilling an RFPP request. Serge is far better experienced in the music areas to make a judgement call so I leave it in his capable hands. -- ferret (talk) 12:57, 15 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

VersaceSpace I'll unprotect it, but only creating the article or publishing a draft is imminent. If you're about to do it, just let me know. But if it's more of a "Yeah maybe I'll do that in a couple months when I have more time" type thing, I'd rather keep it protected and wait until then, to prevent any further half-baked attempts. Just let me know some time, here or on my talk page. Sergecross73 msg me 16:49, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Okay not pinging since you're watching this page, I'll ask when needed. versacespace leave a message! 17:01, 18 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

A goat for you!

Noticed how you work hard to cancel Vandalism, just wanted to say you're doing a Great Job. Keep up the Good Work

It's Xbox 'LIve' enabled games not Xbox games

There is a difference of Xbox Live enabled games, and Xbox games. EzeeWiki (talk) 17:06, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

From the view of "Are they part of the Xbox branding?" there is not. They are part of the brand. Please stop wasting people's time on these things. -- ferret (talk) 17:08, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Well It's not actually more a part of Xbox branding as they are a part of Windows, It's just Xbox live enabled games on windows. EzeeWiki (talk) 17:12, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm sorry, to disagree. but It's more of a windows game enabled to use Xbox live, I know It's a part of the brand, but I'm going to separate them with 'List of Xbox games' and 'List of Windows games On Xbox Live' is that okay? EzeeWiki (talk) 17:33, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

No, please just leave it alone. If you want to discuss it, use the article's talk page. WP:BRD. -- ferret (talk) 17:38, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I have already discussed it with a few people, I am not changing much, just separating them as 'Windows Games on Xbox live' and 'Xbox Games' Because right now It looks like the list is showing 'Xbox games' when its really just showing windows games, Even you can see that It's not Xbox games, It's windows games that are enabled to use Xbox live? EzeeWiki (talk) 17:44, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Please don't lie to me and waste my time. You realize that any editor can see your contributions, right? You have not discussed it with anyone outside of edit notes when you changed it and my talk page here. If you cannot comprehend that "Xbox Live enabled games" are part of the "Xbox branding", I cannot help you. Microsoft calls it's gaming platform on Windows "Xbox" as well. I'm looking at the "Xbox App" right this moment, on my PC. If you want to discuss this content further, please use the article's talk page. Do not use my user talk further. -- ferret (talk) 17:59, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not lying, I haven't spoken to anyone on Wikipedia about it, but outside of Wikipedia I have, as Wikipedians we are supposed to be making Wikipedia a site that has easy to understand information, Just think of it like this, 'Windows games that use Xbox Live' and 'Xbox games' all I'm going to do it make that comparison easy to see, I mean, don't be salty, just understand that I'm actually trying to help this Wikipedia, you should be happy that I'm doing my job. Fine I wont talk here again, but just know all I'm doing is helping. EzeeWiki (talk) 18:06, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

If you aren't discussing it on Wikipedia, with Wikipedia editors, in the context of Wikipedia policies and guidelines, it doesn't really count. -- ferret (talk) 18:18, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, I'm sorry ferret, I respect you a lot, as I love Wikipedia, It has helped me through times in my life, that's why I'm trying my best to give back to the community, I have changed 'Xbox' article but I'm hoping you'll be okay with it. sorry and thankyou :) EzeeWiki (talk) 18:22, 28 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
