DYK nomination[edit]

PC version[edit]

The developers are doing their best to bring the game to PC also.<ref>{{cite web|title=Secret Ponchos to Debut on Playstation 4 in 2014!|url=http://secretponchos.com/news_items/7-secret-ponchos-to-debut-on-playstation-4-in-2014-}}</ref>

@Sapeli: This addition is not encyclopedic. It's a post that says they're considering a PC version, not any confirmation. Per BRD, it needs to have talk page consensus before you revert my revert. Please undo your edit and discuss here if you insist on its inclusion. czar ♔ 04:19, 25 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Well I didn't revert your edit, I changed my contribution to reflect the concerns you brought up and I must say I don't understand what you are now exactly objecting. I find it very relevant information for this article when the developers express their interest in a platform for their game. Why do you think that's a piece of information that doesn't qualify for encyclopedia? --Sapeli (talk) 02:29, 26 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Because it isn't an announcement—no PC version has been confirmed. If the PC possibility was important, we'd be using secondary source coverage, but its lack of coverage shows that it isn't news and thus not worthy of inclusion. czar ♔ 02:48, 26 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

It is true the PC version is not confirmed, but they are planning to support it and that's the topic of discussion here. I don't agree about the need for secondary source coverage since it's important technical detail on what platforms the game is planned to run on, notability guidelines are set to keep non-important information out. I don't think we are making progress here, so I asked for third opinion on WikiProject Video Game talk page. --Sapeli (talk) 03:48, 26 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I think it can be included, but would have to be reworded to something like: The developers have indicated a PC version of the game is in the works. Or: The developers have stated their intentions to create a PC version. The way it is, is just poor encyclopedic wording. That whole last "paragraph" of the development section needs a reworking. - Favre1fan93 (talk) 06:38, 26 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

FYI: The edit in question also added PC to the infobox czar ♔ 21:08, 27 October 2013 (UTC)[reply]

There is no cloth physics in Secret Ponchos. A reporter said that in error. Anything that looks like cloth physics is actually done within the animation. I repeat, if you look at the game, it has no cloth physics at all. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 121.98.139.143 (talk) 23:22, 29 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]

We go with what the sources say, unless you have a source that says otherwise. The reference in question actually says they were planning to include cloth physics, not that it was indeed done. I rephrased the text. czar ⨹ 14:07, 30 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
