 * Hello Theroadislong, and thank you for you quick answer to the Kaaarot article !
 * I first published the french version of it a month ago, and it has been accepted and published after a fiew help and editing of the wikipedia french community. This english version is basically a translation of the french one.
 * I noticed your observation about the neutral point of view. I did my best to respect that policy, but i edited the "reception" paragraph to balance it a little more.
 * That "reception" part makes sens when you read the french press articles linked in sources (they were here during some conventions).
 * About myself : i am one of the early registered player of the game. I discovered the game at a convention in 2015, and had the chance to test and review it during a short "Pre-Alpha" in January 2022.
 * I know from the developers that the game will be international, that is why i allowed myself to write a english article.
 * Could you tell me which part of the article you think are not respecting the wikipedia policies ?
 * Again, thank you for your time.
 * Best regards

 * Hi James Duck 991! I'm not Theroadislong but I thought I might be able to explain. The English Wikipedia has strict notability requirements for articles, which you can read at WP:GNG. In short, to quality for an article, there must be significant coverage of the subject in multiple independent reliable sources. Significant coverage typically means ten paragraphs or more about the subject itself. Reliable sources should have a clear editorial process, writers with games journalism backgrounds, a reputation as a serious games journalism publication, etc. None of the sources you've cited appear to meet these guidelines. You can read more about sources for video games articles (reliable, unreliable, and otherwise) at WP:GAMESOURCES.
 * The English Wikipedia also has strict policies against product announcements and coverage of future events (which includes unpublished media), which you can read about at WP:CRYSTALBALL. There needs to be coverage as if the product were already released, which is (unfortunately) rarely possible for indie games like Kaaarot.
 * I hope this helps! If you have any questions, please let me know or start a discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games, the discussion page for our video games product on en.wikipedia. Cheers! Woodroar (talk) 12:49, 13 June 2022 (UTC)
 * Hi Woodroar ! Thank you a lot for that really complete explanation, that actually helps me a lot !
 * Well, it seems that for now, their is not so much i can do about it :)
 * Let's wait for the game to release and see if their is more and better independent reliable sources.
 * Have a nice day ! James Duck 991 (talk) 12:59, 13 June 2022 (UTC)

 * Hey ZXCVBNM ! Thank you for your comment.
 * I am aware that this article has many problem, and will not work for now.
 * About the Gameplay you are right, I could have link some of the existing sources, knowing that journalists have played the game and describe the gameplay in their article.
 * Thank you again !
 * Have a nice day ! James Duck 991 (talk) 12:00, 14 June 2022 (UTC)
