You are sorely behind the time. There's nothing "promotional" about listing out the widely-acclaimed streamed events organized by a Twitch streamer, much like there's nothing "promotional" about listing out the important fights on an MMA fighter's wiki.

Listing or mentioning the event isn't promotional, it is linking a bunch of YouTube videos that can be consider to be so. There are countless streams VODs and YouTube videos, we can't source articles or entire sections based on on what we see in them. It is best to find reliable sources that cover the event. I have added back in the section with sources for the same context you added. In future just try and find secondary coverage of the information you want and use that as the sources. WikiProject Video Games has a good list of reliable(and unreliable) sources for video games, and by assocation streamers. You can find their compiled list listed here.

Thank you for your contribution and improvement. It's infinitely more valuable than the "contributors" who simply wipeout entire entries upon seeing certain parts that they don't agree with. Arkain2K (talk) 23:11, 21 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
