WP:GOCE invitation
Hey there. I wanted to drop you a note to see if you'd be interested in joining the Guild of Copy Editors July 2013 backlog elimination drive. You've helped out the Guild in the past, and I was hoping you'd do so again. We've made lots of progress on the backlog, cutting it by two third since we started three years ago, but have stalled out in recent months. We need more help to keep pushing down the number of articles that still need copy editing. The current drive is already halfway over! Please consider joining it and chipping in a few articles. I hope to see you there. Cheers. —Torchiest talkedits 13:30, 15 July 2013 (UTC)

Slight change to MoohanBOT 2
I'm not sure on the correct process for editing a currently approved bot task but since you were the one to approve my bot I thought this would be a good place to start. I would like to change the search regex the task uses from; \[\[Category:(Year of birth|Year of death|Living people|Possibly living people) to; \[\[Category:(Year of birth|Year of death|Living people|Possibly living people|[1-9][0-9][0-9][0-9] (births|deaths)) I have checked this regex and I'm convinced it works as expected. It will mean that the BOT will also tag pages that have a birth/death year category on them which should increase it's coverage of bio articles still with low/zero false positives. Let me know what I have to do to start using this please. Jamesmcmahon0 (talk) 08:50, 30 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Hey, thanks for dropping a note. It's perfectly fine to make changes to the approved task as long as they still fall within or close to the original task and are there to improve the task. For example, it's totally fine that you add more cases because you didn't think of them (i.e. XXXX births/deaths). — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 09:14, 30 August 2013 (UTC)

repairing dead link?
Hi Hellknowz. I came across your name here when I was trying to get in touch with Rotlink about repairing the link to a page that serves as a source in an article I've nominated at GAN. I don't know about the reasons for Rotlink's block, but they have done some excellent work on tracking down "lost" pages, from what I've seen. Anyway, I know it's a long shot, but would you happen to know where I should go to see if the link can be repaired, or rather, the lost page re-found and then archived? If it's of interest, the page in question was (as per the citation):
 * James Sullivan, "George Harrison's Concert for Bangladesh Featured Drug Trouble for Eric Clapton, Stage Fright for Bob Dylan", spinner.com, 1 August 2011 (retrieved 12 June 2013).

MOBA page edit
Good evening.

Yesterday, I've put up a quick edit on the page of MOBA games that was meant to be a basic backbone of a separate topic of information when it comes to that genre. The edit was quick and dirty, so I have no problem with it being removed, however, I'd still like to add a section to that page about this topic, this time, hopefully, for good.

Thus I came here asking for a guideline. My edit was shut down stating: "...provide reliable non-primary sources covering this," as a basic area it needs to be better in to be accepted. After some thinking about it, I've still got problems settling on what exactly was meant by that. Do I have to find references from gaming journalist sites to legitimze my edit (like this one: "Gamasutra Q&A with Gabe Newell", Gamasutra.com, 3. question and the response to it), or is there something else in particular that needs to be done to make the edit fit your idea of a proper way of putting the topic to the public?

Thank you for your help. 94.136.138.30 (talk) 20:49, 12 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Hi. What you need are reliable, secondary sources covering the exact material you add. I'm afraid MOBA and the naming issue is a contested area and high quality sourcing is expected to make broad changes or bold statements. For example, "There is a persistent naming issue when it comes to this genre of games, which splits the general public into two groups" is a very big statement and it should be trivial to find dozens of sources to support this if it is indeed accurate.
 * Interview with Newell is a primary source and not a secondary one, because he himself talks about something his own company is making and promoting. This is a serious conflict of interest, and we cannot use his Q&A to source anything but the fact that he "calls the game ARTS" (he doesn't even say "genre"). In the end, we go by what the media (such as WP:VG/RS) says. A good rule of thumb is to first find a source and then add the material from it instead of thinking up material and then finding sources for it. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 21:17, 12 November 2013 (UTC)


 * Thanks, again.
 * I guess I'll have to put this behind for the moment and wait how the situation develops (both with Blizz/Valve pushing their own names and general public reaction) until any good sourcing can be provided upon the issue. 94.136.138.30 (talk) 18:31, 13 November 2013 (UTC)

Your definition of producer
As stated on the Template:Infobox VG documentation, the producer field is for:

''The popular name(s) of the game producer(s), who were in charge of the overall production of the game. The name(s) can be wikilinked.''


 * 1) List only the person credited specifically with the title "producer"
 * 2) Do not list the "executive producer" or other "sub"-producer credits, as they are not generally as intimately involved in a game's development
 * 3) If three or more people are credited as "co-producer" discuss who is the "main" producer and list that person
 * 4) List the "creative producer" only if said person's involvement in the game is discussed in the development section

Seeing as Mark Morris is the producer of the game, and he fits in with criteria 1 in the above list, I have a hard time seeing why you feel it is not. Osarius - Want a chat? 14:26, 15 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Sorry, my bad, I was thinking publisher not producer. Yeah, producer can have known/notable persons listed. I'm not sure Morris fits the "popular" part, but I won't argue about that. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 14:44, 15 November 2013 (UTC)

Igromania
I just noticed this addition to the Reference Library and wanted to say thanks. Non-English sources are relatively rarer and WP:VG could stand to see a lot more diversity of its sources. Early Russian sources in particular are fascinating to me due to their guileless coverage of obvious pirate material. You get the same thing to a lesser extent in early Portuguese sources. And I'm guessing older Chinese sources may be the same but I have no idea if sources like that even exist. Anyway it was nice of you to offer to share this source. -Thibbs (talk) 19:20, 19 November 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I noticed the lack of foreign language sources and I happen to speak Russian, so I can review those, Igromania being the largest (although they have many of the reviews online). And yes, they were ridiculously non-caring about pirated games. But then again, you could hardly buy any full legal games short of importing; everything was sold on cheap CDs in actual stores with cracks included. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 20:23, 19 November 2013 (UTC)

Flow feedback request
Hi Hellknowz. Re: your comment at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games, it would be great if you could note down some of your suggestions and concerns, either here, or at my talkpage, or at WT:Flow and WT:Flow/Design FAQ. I can happily extrapolate from brief bullet-points, or long-form posts would also be welcome! Whichever you have time and inclination for.

The Flow team really does want to meet our (the various communities) needs, but they need our feedback and ideas to do so. The more feature ideas they have, and the more descriptions of problems & perspectives they have, the better (and faster) Flow will morph into what we all need. They're trying to improve some very tough complex and intertwined issues, and they need all the insights we can bring. Best wishes, Quiddity (WMF) (talk) 21:03, 24 December 2013 (UTC)

If something fails, the api almost always returns the error text. Unless you tell me what exactly you are doing, I can't think of anything else that is going wrong. —  HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 20:30, 1 January 2014 (UTC)

question
Not sure if I'm supposed to post this here but since you advised me on "the settlers" navbox I guess it's ok.

 * That's because updates aren't instant. Every time you edit the template, each page that uses it has to be updated by the system. There are thousands of templates on Wikipedia and hundreds of edits to them all the time. So it takes a (short) while to update.

By the way, there is significant discrepancy between the claim on the approval page, which says "Exclusion compliant (Yes/No): Yes", and the Bot's page, which says "Exclusion compliant? 	No".

Question
Hi, about two years ago you posted a comment here. I was wondering if you could enlighten me. I recently wrote a template Books and Writers which is for a dead site accessible only through the Wayback Machine. The template produces output like this:



Is this OK or am I doing it wrong? Doing it as a template made the job of replacing existing instances much easier as I could just swap in the new template replacing the previous text. Plus it creates a consistent look and easy to update URLs in the future in a single place. -- Green  C  18:28, 21 June 2015 (UTC)
 * Hey. I think WP:CITET is the most relevant here. Personally, I would avoid new templates. I'm not 100% sure what the guidelines on new templates are at the moment. I'm pretty sure you'd need some sort of consensus first. There is a lot of work done to standardize the templates, their internal workings, and the code they produce. But despite that, different styles are still allowed, so your template would only fit one of them and only in a basic form. This is probably a better question at WT:CITE. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 19:21, 21 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Well, it's also for external links sections like Wayback. We have lots of site-specific external link templates. As a citation template I don't know you may be right it's better to stick with existing cite templates. Just makes maintenance of links much harder, as Books and Writers might return from the dead, or change how the information is displayed, or keep track of which articles use it via Special WhatLinksHere. -- Green  C  20:52, 21 June 2015 (UTC)


 * Yeah, the site-specific templates are in external links, usually because they can be identified by some ID and the template can build the full address. I think that's fine. But using that as inline citation/reference, I am not sure. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 12:05, 22 June 2015 (UTC)

 * Wasn't Chagunitzu shareware or something? I do recall seeing it on public domain BBS's back in the day. And if I remember that far back, Softdisk Magazine used to include floppy diskettes with software such as this on it.

Additionally, if you happen to have the ISSN numbers for these magazines (just in case this might be able to get to FA/GA status). that would be great too. Thea rticle is now C-class. So its pretty good for now. Once it hits B-class, it can easily turn into GA. Lucia Black (talk) 18:32, 28 December 2015 (UTC)
 * I can never find where or if magazines list their ISSNs. A lot of them simply don't, especially older ones. Our articles have them listed for most of them, but I really have no idea when exactly those magazines got them or if that matters for citing. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 15:49, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
 * The issn number is the located in the same place as the ISBN. The numbers sitting on the bar code. But if it doesn't have it. Then that's fine. Sometimes they're listed as isbns too for the older ones. Lucia Black (talk) 17:33, 29 December 2015 (UTC)
 * They just don't show them directly anywhere and I have no idea why, trust me -- I've looked... They are often above the barcode for newer ones, but older ones don't have it. In the barcode, for example, main EAN number sometimes has ISSN "embedded" . So like 977135015904532 -> 135001593 (Edge #196). At that point, it's easier to just google it.

It's a video delivery/streaming site ("online-cinema" is what they call themselves), they stream some big names and apparently have good traffic, apparently they got a bunch of nominations/rewards, though for streaming and their apps and such, not factual content; they don't have anything editorial-related; ratings are user.
 * - no author info, looks like catalogue entry almost, overall a bloggy Ukrainian movie website, ratings are user, authors have no real info, no other info. Main page sidebar says "Авторы и блоги (TOP-12)" (Authors and blogs Top-12), so yeah. Doesn't look like any editorial stuff happens there.
 * , - magazine since 1931, probably reliable, have an editor team and all that
 * - looks like news aggregate (or whatever they are called, kind of like Reuters), the article itself is a press release (it looks like it and I get more search hits on its text)

 * a review-ish article and "Сеанс" is a print magazine
 * review at what seems like an okay site, they have editorial listing
 * Sort of like RT - 2 reviews, they look sort of okayish
 * There's probably more. It's big feature film with an international (Russian speaking countries) release. Unfortunately, it's Ukrainian, so it didn't get the same coverage as a Russian movie would (which isn't that much either).

Quick Russian question
Hi Hellknowz, I was hoping you could help me with a bit of Russian I want to include in the next issue of the WP:VG Newsletter. My question isn't so much about the translation as it is about the transliteration. I understand that there is more than one system for Romanization of Russian, so whatever is the most common or the most intuitive to you would be all I need. The phrase is: "Проект:Компьютерные игры" and was my attempt, but I need a doublecheck at least. The next newsletter's not out for months, so you have time but hopefully it's just a quick question. Thanks in advance for any advice you can give. -Thibbs (talk) 21:31, 17 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Sure thing. It's most likely "Proyekt:Kompyuternye igry". From your version, "yye" is (probably) phonetically redundant. You know, this is a really weird topic for me. Nothing looks, reads, or sounds right to me. Transliteration is such a butchery of either language. Like "y" in "proyekt" is pronounced like "yellow", "yu" in "Kompyuternye" as in "stuart", while "y" in "Kompyuternye" and "igry" is kind of like a "clenched exhale cut short" and basically has no equivalent in English. So yeah... it's really hard to go between English and Russian (just think how bad a stereotypical Russian's English accent is and then double that when Hollywood attempts Russian). Hope that helps. —  HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 22:25, 17 April 2016 (UTC)


 * Thanks, yes that's perfect! And I know what you mean about the butchery of either language. I remember years ago finding a transliteration of the Hungarian letter "ő" as "er" in the Wikipedia article on Paul Erdős. If I remember properly the last name had become "Dersh". That's nearly as bad as "Darsh", and nothing like the proper pronunciation. Anyway thanks again. I'll update the newsletter draft right now. -Thibbs (talk) 00:36, 18 April 2016 (UTC)

Page 6
Hi there, Thanks for your edits to this article; however, I've removed the references you added. One of them effectively covered the same ground as an existing one pointing to the same issue.

The other one was being used to support the assertion that the name change occurred in May 1988. This is incorrect; the magazine was still known as "Page 6", and Atari User was still being published at that point.

Although your reference only gives the issue number and no more detail, I'm guessing this is a misinterpretation of the *subtitle* on the front cover which states "Atari Users' Magazine" (as it did on a number of earlier issues).

I've added a reference supporting the correct dates. No hard feelings; it was an understandable mistake. All the best, Ubcule (talk) 18:36, 2 October 2016 (UTC)

Invitation to beta-test IABot
Hello Hellknowz! I would like to invite you to help beta test the interface for InternetArchiveBot. IABot is a bot designed to help mitigate link rot on Wikipedia. Users can control the bot by using a Management Interface that was designed to be integrated with and similar to Wikipedia (For example, only autoconfirmed users can run the bot; on-wiki administrators have admin access on the tool; user permissions on the tool are flag based; logs are kept; etc.)

If you'd like to help out, feel free to give the interface a go to check for bugs/anomalies/other weird things and send your feedback to Cyberpower678, the bot operator. Again, the interface is at http://tools.wmflabs.org/iabot/ (If it's down for maintenance right now, it'll be back up shortly). If you are not interested, feel free to ignore this message.

Minecraft mods
I understand your objection to the first few revisions I made to Minecraft mods, but the last time, I was only building on the established source with a bit more information. I think that, in this instance, self-published sources are acceptable. Jjjjjjdddddd (talk) 09:56, 16 July 2017 (UTC)
 * The article is well-sourced, so we don't want to go back to primary and unsourced statements. The simplest reason is WP:BURDEN -- whoever adds material has to show it is verifiable. Self-published sources are only acceptable for small, unambiguous facts. Anything that goes beyond simple "sky is blue" is undue weight to primary sources. The article is not lacking details, because we couldn't write them -- we don't write them, because it's not described in reliable secondary sources. To quote policy, "if the information in question is really worth reporting, someone else will probably have published it in independent reliable sources." Reliable sources don't cover extended gameplay details for mods, and neither should we in an overview page in an encyclopedia.
 * To elaborate why such additions work counter to good sourcing. Mixing primary sources is what WP:SYNTH explains to avoid. We might write "BC has machines and pipes". Then source "machines" part to a reliable source and "pipes" part to a forum post by developer. The problem is that this isn't accurate. In fact, the semi-right way would be to say "BC has machines. The developer also said it has pipes." When we don't mix sourcing, it's much clearer what the issue is. What if the developer says BC has space suits. We would then need to say "The developer also said it has space suits". We know it's wrong, but if we accept primary sources, we have to include it. Or what if one developer has hundreds of pages about their tiny mod and another huge mod has none? We would have to only covert the tiny mod for additional details even though reliable sources might do the opposite. In other words, you added information you know is true and relevant, because you likely have played the mods yourself. But it doesn't mean we can reliably show it to be true. One can find all kinds of outdated, biased, incomplete and plain incorrect posts by developers. This is why we use independent sources that do fact-checking. — HELL KNOWZ  ▎TALK 10:38, 16 July 2017 (UTC)
 * Ah, so mixing sources is counter to verifiability. That makes sense, and I'll keep that in mind. Jjjjjjdddddd (talk) 22:08, 28 July 2017 (UTC)

Upcoming changes to wikitext parsing
Hello,

There will be some changes to the way wikitext is parsed during the next few weeks. It will affect all namespaces. You can see a list of pages that may display incorrectly at Special:LintErrors. Since most of the easy problems have already been solved at the English Wikipedia, I am specifically contacting tech-savvy editors such as yourself with this one-time message, in the hope that you will be able to investigate the remaining high-priority pages during the next month.

There are approximately 10,000 articles (and many more non-article pages) with high-priority errors. The most important ones are the articles with misnested tags and table problems. Some of these involve templates, such as infoboxes, or the way the template is used in the article. In some cases, the "error" is a minor, unimportant difference in the visual appearance. In other cases, the results are undesirable. You can see a before-and-after comparison of any article by adding ?action=parsermigration-edit to the end of a link, like this: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arthur_Foss?action=parsermigration-edit (which shows a difference in how infobox ship is parsed).

If you are interested in helping with this project, please see Linter. There are also some basic instructions (and links to even more information) at https://lists.wikimedia.org/pipermail/wikitech-ambassadors/2018-April/001836.html You can also leave a note at WT:Linter if you have questions.

Direct transclusion (??) and slashes in template calls
In of WikiProject Astronomical objects, you introduced   with edit summary →‎Article alerts: Convert deprecated { {ArticleAlertbotSubscription}} to direct transclusion { {/Article alerts}} using AWB. I have two questions: —Anomalocaris (talk) 05:06, 6 August 2018 (UTC)
 * 1) What is the effect of the slash in the template call, and where is this documented?
 * 2) Is "direct transclusion" the same as "transclusion", and if not, what is the difference?
 * Slash means subpage of the current page. So "/Whatever" on page "Something" is the same as "Something/Whatever". Transclusion.
 * By "direct" I meant that instead of transcluding a template which is then transcluding the subpage (so, indirectly) it is now transcluding the subpage (thus, directly). — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 09:57, 6 August 2018 (UTC)

Hypixel
Hello Hellknowz, I am writing to you to reach an agreement on the article Hypixel. In first, my edition is not disruptive, for the simple reason that I did not harm the article. About that it has no references; if they have (less the first because it would be primary source because it would arrive a YouTube link or the Hypixel forum). If you do not respond to the message, I suppose I will revert your edition. Regards. --Furawi (talk) 21:33, 26 December 2018 (UTC)
 * I already left a message on your talk page. You keep adding primary sources and removing problem tags. Wikipedia uses reliable secondary sources and rarely primary sources. Citing some sort of a record, like the edits you are referring to, most definitely requires a reliable secondary source. It is up to your to cite a reliable source if the material is contested. This is explained at WP:V and WP:RS and WP:BURDEN. — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 22:04, 26 December 2018 (UTC)

Template:Template for discussion
Hi Hellknowz. Concerning the use of the HTML tags strong and var: Generally, typeface is coded using wikimarkup. However, if the typeface has a textual meaning, it should be rendered using HTML tags (see, for example, MOS:EMPHASIS). Unlike wikimarkup, HTML tags are accessible, because the textual purpose of the typeface is communicated to accessibility tools like screen readers, and also because they are rendered by the browser, meaning users with accessibility issues can change their default rendering to make them more accessible. Concerning the use of Template:If empty, there is a balance to using templates like this (templates that substitute for everyday parser functions or magic words). On the one hand, they might save a little space and be a little easier to type and use. On the other hand, they make it more difficult to read the code because the user has to be familiar with both the parser function or magic word and the template that transcludes it, essentially hiding the code in another template. Sometimes the benefits outweigh the drawbacks, like when, in this case of this template, you have multiple, conditional "if empty" variables. But here, when you only have one variable, in my opinion, the benefits do not outweigh the drawbacks. As there is no guideline on the matter, if you feel strongly the template should be used, I won't oppose it. --Bsherr (talk) 17:52, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for explaining your points. I didn't really consider formatting versus intention, since few other templates use this (as far as I know). It seems could be appropriate in this case as the intent. I don't think is appropriate at all, because its meaning is literally for math/variables. seems to be what you wanted, which I can also agree could be more appropriate for the intent. That said, I don't think they are more appropriate here, because the intention for the formatting is to make it visually quicker to scan, not that one should read the bolded text with emphasis. I may be wrong.
 * At a broader level, this sounds like it should have a wider discussion and consensus and then all templates updated to one style or the other. I've never seen any non-article space policy/guideline about stuff like this. Even in articles, it's rare in articles to see non-markup tags.
 * I don't think I generally agree with the raw parser function use versus cleaner templates, when it's shorter and clearer about its purpose. But I also don't feel strongly about this. There are far worse examples of complex template code. — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 18:33, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the reply, Hellknoz. You're half right about var. It is used for mathematical variables, but it is also used for programmatic variables, in connection with code, samp, and kbd. As both variables and emphasis are italicized, the question is which of the two you are attempting to communicate to the reader. Here, is the template name italicized to be emphatic, or to indicate the variable part of the message? To me, it's clearly the latter. But if you take away that option (and there's probably still an argument to be made that this isn't the right circumstance to use var since this isn't strictly representing a description of the programming), perhaps it shouldn't be italicized at all, because it doesn't seem appropriate to emphasize it. Likewise with strong. Unless that text is bolded for a purely decorative purpose (for example, keeping with a convention of bolding the subject in the lede), then its purpose is emphasis. I know you don't mean it, but the distinction you're drawing, between emphasis and making it visually quicker to scan, is at least in this situation reflective of an implicit ablest bias (consider what "visually quicker to scan" means to a visually impaired person).
 * I think there are three reasons you haven't noticed accessibility improvements, and particularly on project pages, before. Firstly, Wikipedia has been slow to adopt robust accessibility guidelines. Secondly, there is a misconception that the MoS does not apply to project pages. Thirdly, there generally is an inattention to these kinds of improvements, because they aren't always intuitive and they don't affect most people (for example, the use of wikimarkup or HTML tags probably makes no difference in how the page is rendered to you). Of course, we should still try to build an accessible Wikipedia. --Bsherr (talk) 20:36, 7 January 2019 (UTC)
 * Personally, I think there needs to be a VP/RfC level discussion before such changes are implemented. I don't disagree with you in principle, but I don't agree that current policies or guidelines prescribe such changes. I won't re-revert you if you wish to restore your edits. — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 22:04, 7 January 2019 (UTC)

August 2019
Hi HELLKNOWZ,

Thank you for responding to my post on August 2019 review of submission of 'Draft:Hero Cai'. I have seen that the key issue here is to prove that person is sufficiently 'notable'.

I have followed the links you gave and found that the wiki policy says 'Academics meeting any one of the following conditions, as substantiated through reliable sources, are notable'. And one of these conditions is 'The person is or has been an elected member of a highly selective and prestigious scholarly society or association (e.g., a National Academy of Sciences or the Royal Society) or a fellow of a major scholarly society which reserves fellow status as a highly selective honor (e.g., Fellow of the IEEE).[2]'

Can I ask why the fellowship of the CIOL was not thought to meet this condition, while Fellow if the IEEE, which is an association for technical professionals, is? Can I assume that the CIOL, despite being the only lingiustic institution that has got chartership in the UK, is not considered as prestigious as bodies like IEEE? Would you suggest other institutions for linguists that MIGHT BE considered more prestigeous?

 * You need to add reliable sources, such as these. And remove content not directly supported by sources. As well as avoid trivia and gamecruft. In the grand scheme of things, a Minecraft server is not any sort of significant topic and isn't likely to become an article. It's possible it could be mentioned in Minecraft article, but it would likely be a very brief note among examples of larger community servers. — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 08:55, 13 October 2019 (UTC)

Comment Draft:List of Swedish video game developers
Hi Hellknows,

About your comment: As I commented on the help page: why is this list necessary when we have List of video game developers? I see no need to break it down by country, this only hinders navigation. The additional columns here are arbitrarily selected and ORish (number of employees in particular is completely unsourced). — HELLKNOWZ   ▎TALK 22:42, 15 December 2019 (UTC)

Number of employees was collected from an institution called Swedish Companies Registration Office (Bolagsverket). Do you want me to refer to it in the article? How do you think the columns should be selected? You commented "ORish", what does that mean?

All the best

 * Wikipedia uses secondary sources so that we don't have to make decisions about what content to include. That's one facet of what WP:OR (original research) discusses. In this case, you chose to include the number of employees. But may be I believe that the company age is more important? Or another editor thinks that yearly turnover is most important? This is no way to decide on content, which is why we fall back asking: "what information do reliable secondary sources cover?" This is what I meant by "ORish". Sorry I wasn't clear, my comment was aimed at reviewers rather than you. But this is just a specific issue in the article. My main concern is still the same -- I don't see the need to split Sweden away from the main List of video game developers list. This is something you'd bring up at WT:WPVG and it's unlikely to gain consensus. — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 14:07, 21 December 2019 (UTC)

 * I have edited all the articles that were in category "Media Synthesis" removing them from the category and with edit summary pointing to Category talk:Media synthesis. The category is now empty and if it remains empty for 7 days should qualify for speedy deletion. I considered speedy rename of the category to "Synthetic Media" but decided not to because (1) there is no master article for the category and (2) it is not clear yet that the category is even required. Are there other mentions of Media Synthesis other than these? If so, they can be edited to read "synthetic media". -- Sirfurboy (talk) 11:36, 30 January 2020 (UTC)
 * As far as I know, the only mentions of "media synthesis" are by the article's author. I had never even heard the term before that. I am yet to see a prevalence of reliable sources that call it that and state that certain fields are under it. If it really is such a big field and term used by sources, then literally every article on generated content would start with "Whatever is a field of synthetic media that blah blah". This sounds highly unlikely to me. The author gave some 5 sources that use the term and none of them explicitly mentioned al those other fields. Nor do sources of those fields describe the fields as being under this term. The author has massive COI issues here and I don't trust them to make unbiased edits and represent sources proportionally without a lot of guidance. — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 12:20, 30 January 2020 (UTC)

Hello, question regarding VG reverts:
Recently you reverted a few of my edits citing, "Secondary reliable source needed (primary source stats should be avoided)". Can you please explain what this means? The source I used was no different than the source used in the previous "Steam Awards" citations on the very same page (except I'm using the 2019 version). If you are requiring a secondary source referencing Steam Awards, you ought to revert ALL the steam references, as people are using the steam page as the primary and only source for all of them. So, I'm confused as to why you only reverted mine.

Thanks for any clarification you can offer,

EmptyBalloon (talk) 16:55, 7 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Hi! You're right, I removed the previous mention too because of the same concern. Primary sources should not be used for anything but basic facts. Wikipedia is concerned that material is verifiable and proportional to reliable sources, and not just true. Steam awards are user awards (WP:USERG) and should not be used unless covered by reliable secondary source(s). For example, a citation like this would be appropriate, but not all the additional information one could find about the awards that doesn't appear in the source. Of course, there's many other editors and opinions and it's hard to judge each case. Video games is a popular subject and there are many articles that have bad sourcing or no sourcing at all. In general, secondary sources should be used for everything. Exceptions include plot/gameplay for video games. Also occasionally, primary sources like interviews for some insider/development info. — HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 17:28, 7 February 2020 (UTC)


 * That makes sense, thanks. In this particular case though, the award I cited wasn't a user award -- the award is that of total concurrent players, which, to my mind, is factual (it's not opinion like a Rotten Tomatoes score; these are just numbers pulled from the Steam servers). So, I'm not really sure it's "user-generated content". Either way, if I were to also cite a well-known video game site referencing the same Steam Award, would that count as a secondary source here? Thanks, EmptyBalloon (talk) 18:48, 7 February 2020 (UTC)


 * Yes, but that's textbook WP:CRUFT. If you can cite a reliable video game source for stuff like that, then may be. But you'll find that sources rarely cover these kinds of stats. Consequently, we rarely include them in articles. But occasionally someone does report that game X got Y players or some such. For example, this article mention the list, but only mentions a few games and doesn't mention numbers. —  HELL KNOWZ   ▎TALK 20:26, 7 February 2020 (UTC)
