List of Accolade games edit

A few editors asked me to spin this list out of the main Accolade (company) article, during the featured article process. The list was still improved a lot through that process, and I'm wondering if it could become a featured list with a little more work. Shooterwalker (talk) 01:15, 30 December 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I think it could. There's a few things I would change; see List of 3D Realms games as an example of what I'm talking about.
  • Since the list is a plain wikitable, it should be sortable.
  • I don't think the distributor column is needed; it's not very useful to readers (which is why it's not in articles/infoboxes, for example), and is essentially unsourcable or even unfindable for most games. Games are also distributed by different companies in different regions, as well, which makes it even murkier.
  • I think it may work better to have the release dates and systems spread out into different columns. For 3D Realms I have it as a single release date and multiple systems, but if you want to keep the release-date-per-system in multiple columns you could do like List of Enix games.
  • I generally find it nicer to have refs in their own column instead of tacked onto the titles.
  • You need a proper lead, of course.
