Super Caesars Palace

Hi, thanks for your message regarding my earlier edit omitting this game from Majesco's page. I have re-omitted the entry as I believe Majesco were credited in error at an earlier time. I'm still sort of getting used to how things work behind the scenes here, but thanks to you I shall be more studious about edit summaries in the future. If you need any more data on the edit in question please don't hesitate to contact me again. Many thanks and kind regards, Mandrogora.

No problem. It's not just about leaving a summary...but you also need sources to base your edits off. Making edits based on opinion, memory, etc aren't a good way to build an encyclopedia. So you would still need sources before making the edit again. My point was if you don't have a source to base your edits off, don't make them. If you are convinced you are right, then do your research, and find quality sources. Look at the Help page and other reference pages for help. RSTech1 (talk) 11:34, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I hope I have submitted enough citations in my new summary (five). From a purely academic perspective it is much harder to prove a negative rather than a positive. Nonetheless, I feel I've provided sufficient independent evidence to quiet the contrary position. Mandrogora (talk) 12:53, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not sure where you're saying that you added citations on the Majesco article. In your edit, there are exactly 0 references/citations. How are you saying that you have 5 citations? A citation means you are quoting a specific reference material and provide that info in the references section. See this: Citations

In the talk page for the Majesco entry, under the heading Super Caesar's Palace (link here). I don't see how I would add a citation (to the article itself) when I'm removing the part that would be germane to the citation. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mandrogora (talk • contribs) 13:06, 21 November 2016 (UTC)[reply]
