1337wiki
Hi Cpabon, I just got your email. I'm afraid that 1337wiki.com would most likely not count as a reliable source at Wikipedia. One of the key aspects of reliability is the idea of authority. Does the author of the source have the experience, credentials, and reputation within the industry to be relied upon? The 1337wiki describes itself as "Gaming Entertainment news, guides, and analysis for fans and by fans". In general fan-generated websites (Wikipedia included) are considered unreliable. There's just too much of a danger of fan-introduced errors when amateur fans are writing the sources. You can ask for other opinions at WT:VG/RS, but I think that's the answer you'd receive. -Thibbs (talk) 17:49, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
 * Glad to help. Feel free to contact me on my talk page if you need any help as you get started editing here. I'm usually on Wikipedia at least once a day. -Thibbs (talk) 23:30, 10 February 2015 (UTC)
