Re: Yume Nikki GA nom
I would suggest withdrawing your nomination of Yume Nikki until the page is further improved. GamerTell isn't a reliable source and TIGSource recently got shot down as one at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games/Sources. That leaves Kotaku only for reception. Hardcore Gaming 101, Wired and Rock Paper Shotgun could be part of the reception but are only used to provide gameplay info. Suffice it to say it needs further development and I don't think it's ready for GAR at this time. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 17:18, 14 June 2022 (UTC)


 * @Zxcvbnm Hm, you could be right about that. Thanks for letting me know about those sources; I guess I never did end up improving the reception section as much as I'd liked to. Bluecrystal004 (talk · contribs) 17:32, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Yume Nikki: Dream Diary also needs a separate page. You may be interested in creating it, although if you don't I might at some point. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 21:23, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah I'll look into splitting it off alongside fixing up the original article. Feel free to if I don't get around to it. Bluecrystal004 (talk · contribs) 01:40, 15 June 2022 (UTC)

Hey there
Two quick things: 1. Your userpage says that you have no barnstars, which clearly isn't true (see above). 2. I see that you have a Discord-style userbox template. Would you like to join WP:DISCORD? Best, Toadspike (talk) 17:04, 17 August 2022 (UTC)

 * Thanks for reaching out. I'm actually the one who brought it to AfD, but it was sort of a bold nomination on my part since I'm definitely no expert on applying WP:GNG. I'd probably agree with the Keep !votes. ~ Bluecrystal004 ( talk · contribs ) 03:12, 30 November 2022 (UTC)

August 2023 Good Article Nominations Backlog Drive reminder
The August 2023 Good Article Nominations Backlog Drive is at the halfway mark, and has seen incredible progress, dropping the backlog from 638 to 359 unreviewed articles -- a 43.7% reduction in only fifteen days! But we still have over two weeks to go, and there are plenty of articles left to review:


 * We've gone from 14 nominations 270+ days old and 65 nominations 180+ days old to 2 and 0 respectively. No more articles will reach 270+ status during the drive, and only three more will reach 180+ if unreviewed, so this is your last chance to get the higher age bonuses!
 * We still have plenty of articles in the 90+ range, but the list is shrinking fast.
 * Some articles need new reviewers, either because they're officially on second opinion or because the original reviews were deleted or invalidated. You can help prevent these articles from waiting longer!
 * While there are starting to be clear favourites for the Content Review Medal of Merit, the field is still very open. A late entrant can still pull an upset to get the most reviews in the drive!

And remember: if you've done reviews, you should log them at the backlog drive page for points, so they can be tracked towards your awards at the end.

Thanks for signing up for the drive, and I hope to see you reviewing! Vaticidalprophet 02:01, 15 August 2023 (UTC)

Current Events
Hi there. I was in the middle of amending the information when you removed it entirely without discussion. - R9tgokunks   ⭕  20:48, 7 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Hi R9tgokunks, I'm sorry our edits conflicted, but it happens on occasion. I support the event as you've modified it now, and with the source you gave, so thank you for your improvements. However, understand that I removed a wording which significantly misrepresented the source that was there, and because the source did not mention an announcement of a press conference, so I figured there was no reason for a June 7 entry, only a potential June 8. Cheers! ~ Adam ( talk · contribs ) 21:08, 7 June 2024 (UTC)

Editor experience invitation
Hi Adam :) I'm looking for experienced editors to interview here. Feel free to pass if you're not interested. Clovermoss 🍀  (talk) 03:36, 8 June 2024 (UTC)

Please review
Hi there. I noticed this edit and its summary. Could you please review it and reconsider it in light of WP:OVERLINK and WP:V? I think going by your edit summary you may have been a little hasty. 90.242.60.196 (talk) 20:08, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
 * It certainly looks like I was hasty. Mostly actually looks fine to me, with the exception of the de-linking of various country names. I don't see why those are a problem, since they aren't duplicate links. Cheers! ~ Adam ( talk · contribs ) 20:21, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
 * Thanks for taking the time. OVERLINK recommends against linking countries. 90.242.60.196 (talk) 21:10, 13 June 2024 (UTC)
