Welcome to Wikipedia! Thank you for your contributions to The Legend of Blacksilver, but please remember that Wikipedia isn't a place for walkthroughs, cheats, lists of game content or detailed instructions on how to play a game. For more information please read the video game guideline. Also see WP:USERGENERATED, Lemon64 and the wiki portion of Giant Bomb are unreliable as they are user generated, and 'The Digital Antiquarian' is a blog, see WP:BLOGS Waxworker (talk) 17:48, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
- Thank you for pointing out these changes, I had made these edits for my college editing class and was meant to create a dossier on my edits, if you have any suggestions on some (at least 10) substantive edits I can do to replace my work that would be great, I have already found d some replacement sources I was going to add today which come from the games handbook and established literature produced by Epyx, so that will be an easy fix. Also a quick question about my "Gameplay" section but it felt more descriptive and less like a walk through but no entirely sure on why the whole peice got removed.

- The gameplay section was sourced to unreliable sources, but the prose read fine other than "Overall all the game has much to offer in terms of playability" reading non-neutrally and being unnecessary to note. Inline citations need to be added to verify everything in the gameplay section. I recommend searching for coverage in magazines on Archive.org, or using reviews linked from Mobygames here - note that Mobygames itself is an unreliable WP:USERGENERATED source, but is useful for finding reviews in reliable sources. I recommend reading Help:Referencing for beginners. Waxworker (talk) 19:48, 28 March 2024 (UTC)
- I did manage to find some of the gameplay manuals and some old gaming magazines on Internet Archive (which I'm assuming is reliable) so I did plan on adding those, as well as verify the existing work, but thanks for the quick response and heads up. (Side note my project is due on April 2 at 11:59 if any cahnges to the document that are necessary could be made after that but I understand Wikipedia has a standard to up keep).
