Editing Practices
Make sure you are familiar with the following pages:
The assessment department evaluates the quality and importance of video game related articles.
The essential articles page identifies the most important topics in the scope of this WikiProject.
The reference library is an archive of high-quality sources that may be used to support development history, critical reception, and other sections of articles.
We have task forces within our project that provide centralized information and discussion for topics that have a sufficiently large scope, but would not benefit from having a separate WikiProject with all of the associated bureaucracy.
All pages linked to by this page may be monitored from the project watchlist.
The templates page lists all templates useful in writing articles related to video games, including infobox, cleanup, stub, talk page, and external links templates.
Statistics on the articles in this project's scope are available.
05 Nov 2024 – Tom and Jerry: Yankee Doodle's CAT-astrophe(talk · edit · hist) was PRODed by Vrxces (t · c): Non-notable video game with no reliable secondary citations. MobyGames shows no reviews, Internet Archive shows two hits for the title. This just isn't notable per WP:GNG to justify an article sadly.
04 Nov 2024 – L3DT(talk · edit · hist) was PRODed by Mika1h (t · c): Fails WP:GNG for not including any references to significant coverage in reliable sources.
