 * Please note that while I know games like Enter the Gungeon are not true roguelikes, the industry hasn't adapted a term like roguelite - it remains more of a slang term, and due to that, we can't use that as the identifying genre. --M asem (t) 13:55, 16 March 2018 (UTC)

"Roguelite"
Hello Roguelikesareturnbasedandtilebased, and thanks for trying to clean up possible misconceptions on the "roguelike" and "rogulite" genres on various pages. While we appreciate that you try enhance the project, it was already noted above that "roguelite" is not a widely used term in the press to refer to games that take in roguelike elements, but not all of them. Rather, the term is more of a slang among players who criticise the lack of such elements in games that are labelled roguelike. Because of this, you are kindly ask not to blindly change it on every page you find. This is added to by you doing these changes repeatedly and without any kind comment but "Corrected content" or "Content fixed". For example, you did that five times on Enter the Gungeon. This might and likely will be seen as disruptive editing behaviour, so I'm letting you know that I have reverted your changes on all pages I could backtrack. If you wish to address this issue to a broader Wikipedian audience, you may consult the talk page of the Video games WikiProject. Cheers! Lordtobi ( &#9993; ) 21:57, 16 March 2018 (UTC)


 * Hi Lordtobi, and sorry about that, I didn't see the previous message from Masem. Also, sorry about the repeated edits, I just assumed they weren't going through, haha! With that being said, although the term "roguelite" is merely slang, using the term "roguelike" on these pages is blatantly false. It even clearly states what the genre is on the Wikipedia page itself. So, should I use the term "roguelite" or just remove the "roguelike" genre from the pages, because those are the only two options for now besides being wrong. Whether or not people have not adjusted to the correct definition does not make it incorrect. Although there are many cases where the majority of people that use a word are the ones that define it, the term "roguelike" has a relatively set definition, and the misuse of it should be corrected. Sorry for correcting it incorrectly though. I will make sure to change the edits back temporarily in case you missed any, and I will also make sure to make my edit summaries more detailed in the future. Thank you!

 * Again, the addition or removal needs to comply with reliable sources, as has been previously and which you did not address in your above reply. Please try to find indepdendent, reliable sources that outline that the game is a roguelite or just has roguelike elements. Lordtobi  ( &#9993; ) 07:42, 31 March 2018 (UTC)
