Sources Borked

The sources should not direct to the actual user and items, but an article, if possible. Not many people can see that the certain user is 200,000th. Also, the article seems like an advert. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.231.183.25 (talk) 02:19, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Then what would be your opinion on how to NOT make it sound like an advertisement? --Briguy9876 (talk) 18:37, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]


If you had read the previous discussion, you would find we have already discussed that. A talk page is for either consensus vote or constructive feedback. If you don't have either, why edit?--gordonrox24 (talk) 21:27, 31 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Ia "Borked" even a real word? I don't think so.--gordonrox24 (talk) 22:19, 2 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for remaking

Hey Briguy nice that your remaking the Roblox article this will really help everybody find it plus even though Im not flaming blockland but why should they get an article and ROBLOX which is about 5 times as big barely get any 3rd party forces and blockland gets an award--15avaughn (talk) 02:11, 21 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Blockland was first. They got the word out and they got known. --Briguy9876 (talk) 21:57, 23 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

hmm i though roblox was 06 and block was 07 =/ roblox user: kirbysuperstar223 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.168.56.2 (talk) 23:16, 6 November 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re-wrote Article

I have re-written the article to improve it's organisation, place the references in more appropriate places and added extra information on character customisation and the economy. --User:Owen0202 April 12th —Preceding undated comment added 15:44, 12 April 2009 (UTC).[reply]

All References.

A list of all the references used on this page. Ever.


--User:gordonrox24

New sections.

I like the addition of new sections, but we still need references to back them up.--gordonrox24 (talk) 15:43, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah, I realised I had a lack of 3rd party sources when I re-wrote the article. We are going to need to get looking for more to back it up. --Owen0202 (talk) 15:47, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I added some references from the see also section in apropriate places. --86.167.173.59 (talk) 16:30, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Potential reference

What seems like a very reliable overiew of Roblox.

I have taken the source to the Reliable sources Noticeboard to verify.--gordonrox24 (talk) 16:10, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Good, we could really do with that --Owen0202 (talk) 16:13, 12 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I could have sworn that blogs were not allowed. I think we tried to use it in the original article. --Briguy9876 (talk) 00:28, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
That is what I think too.--gordonrox24 (talk) 01:04, 13 April 2009 (UTC

The blog is a no. Youtube is a maybe if we can prove it reliable, which is almost impossible for an online game.--gordonrox24 (talk) 22:37, 14 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Un-cited Material.

All text with no references Will and can be removed if need be. With Wikipedia:Twinkle I can revert an article to any past edit at any time.--gordonrox24 (talk) 00:36, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Well at the moment this isn't an article, it is a user page that is undergoing work. I don't think they will delete it yet.--Owen0202 (talk) 10:34, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Not yet, but before I bring it back to WP:DRV It will have to be cleaned out. --gordonrox24 (talk) 12:47, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Most of Blocklands references are videos, couldn't we do the same? --Owen0202 (talk) 14:48, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Taken to WP:RSN as well.--gordonrox24 (talk) 21:02, 13 April 2009 (UTC

Take a look through WP:RS and WP:BLOGS--gordonrox24 (talk) 21:24, 13 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Online Multiplayer, Offline Editing

This could be misleading, because Roblox Studio cannot be opened if there is no Internet connection. But then again, editing a place is a one person thing. If you agree, edit it, and likewise. —Preceding unsigned comment added by ANormalUsername1 (talkcontribs) 18:44, 28 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Advert.

The article looks good, but it is starting to read like an advertisement again. I'm going to try and fix that.--gordonrox24 (talk) 22:55, 29 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I went through the article and tried to fix it.--gordonrox24 (talk) 00:26, 3 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why I don't try to help to fix this page anymore

See, the problem is, oh so long ago when I first started on this project, I was a normal user trying to get this back.

NOW I am Moderator, so I could be considered part of the staff, and I might be yelled at for advertising or some other strange thing.

All I really do now is search for sources. Its really all I can do. --Briguy9876 (talk) 02:50, 8 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Speaking of sources, how does this look? http://www.commonsensemedia.org/website-reviews/roblox.html
