 * Hello, if you will look at the guidelines on sourcing a person as a source on themselves:
 * |"Wikipedia:Sourcing: Self-published or questionable sources as sources on themselves"
 * You will find this is expressly allowed within certain reasonable limits. The citing of Porpentine's website here is extremely narrow. If you can identify any specific points of reliance on the website which are inappropriate, feel free to bring them up. Awk (talk) 20:29, 19 August 2013 (UTC)

Removed figames info after Porpentine left figames, and then figames' dissolution shortly after. http://www.freeindiegam.es/2014/04/goodbye — Preceding unsigned comment added by 23.30.243.209 (talk) 15:40, 10 April 2014 (UTC)
 * It's not supposed to be limited to current activity. If the figames info was notable before, it still is. —David Eppstein (talk) 16:44, 10 April 2014 (UTC)

Is "Porpentine Charity Heartscape" this person's real legal name?
She also seems to go by "Brenda Neotenomie". Equinox ◑ 21:45, 3 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Really? This review appears to be stating that one of Porpentine's works is a collaboration with Neotenomie, which would make no sense if they are the same person. Anyway, unless we have reliable sources on her identity, we should just use the name that she uses for her game authorship. —David Eppstein (talk) 22:07, 3 December 2016 (UTC)


 * Yeah I think you're right about Brenda being someone else. However, even if her real name isn't notable, the fact that Porpentine is a pseudonym is worth noting; compare Moxie Marlinspike. Equinox ◑ 16:50, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
 * Only if we have a source. —David Eppstein (talk) 17:15, 8 December 2016 (UTC)
