Talk:Imagine Software

Collapse of Imagine

The collapse of Imagine roughly coincides with the Video game crash of 1983 in the US. Was the British company affected in any way by events in America? Bastie 14:50, 17 August 2005 (UTC)

Also: I'd love to see the BBC documentary mentioned. Does anyone know where to find it? Bastie 01:43, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

I haven't read much of it, but this article from Crash seems to describe the documentary in question. --StuartBrady (Talk) 01:57, 5 August 2006 (UTC)

I have added an external link to the said BBC documentary. 82.42.133.198 01:37, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

Brillant stuff. Thanks for that. Bastie 11:58, 1 October 2006 (UTC)

I don't see the BBC documentary link. Has it been removed? 2fort5r (talk) 22:45, 31 August 2009 (UTC)

Link restored. 2fort5r (talk) 21:38, 12 September 2009 (UTC)

Here's the video on Youtube if anyone wants to see it https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZoDh61sgCOgIjustwannabeawinner (talk) 13:34, 3 May 2018 (UTC)

Imagine Studios ?

Whats the difference between Imagine Software & Imagine Studios ? Not the same company ? --Joystick 03:24, 3 December 2006 (UTC)

I've edited the article to reflect what I think is going on with the name.—The preceding unsigned comment was added by Ezel (talk • contribs) 2007-08-04.

Fair use rationale for Image:Arcadia game cover.jpg

Image:Arcadia game cover.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in Wikipedia articles constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 19:40, 31 May 2007 (UTC)

External links

I have removed three of the external links as they fail the WP:LINKSTOAVOID criteria, specifically "Any site that misleads the reader by use of factually inaccurate material or unverifiable research" and "Links to blogs and personal web pages, except those written by a recognized authority (this exception is meant to be very limited; as a minimum standard, recognized authorities always meet Wikipedia's notability criteria for biographies)"; none of the information in the sites linked to is verified, and none of the authors is notable.

I see from the history that these links have been deleted and reinstated before; I hope if they are reinstated again that the editor will explain how an unverified article on a blog written by a non-notable author does not fail WP:LINKSTOAVOID. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 192.93.164.23 (talk) 09:34, 4 February 2009 (UTC)
