Bubsy 3D


I've listed this article for peer review because I'm about to nominate it for GA very soon. I've previously sent this article for a thorough copyedit at GOCE requests and have even done some work on the article myself. There's got to be something missing, but I can't put my finger on it. Feedback is vital and your input matters.

 * The Gameplay section definitely needs work as far as sourcing goes. If you can find the game's instruction manual somewhere, that should serve as a primary source. Don't be afraid to use reviews of the game to bolster sourcing for a particular point or add something that the manual doesn't cover. Also, the clusters of citations in the Reception section make for a difficult read. Any cluster bigger than four sources should be relegated to the Notes section with the template, such as in this example. Those are the big things I caught from skimming, but hoping that helps.

 * Your suggestions definitely helped! But I do have one query. Would it be necessary to splurge money on the full manual if there is none available for free viewing online? I'm having a big issue finding the Bubsy 3D manual from a free reliable source (there are only some parts all on Twitter). I'm not going to take a risk with adding unreliable sources to this B-class article... —  bee tricks  ~ 💬 · ✉️ 11:49, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
 * If you're really desperate to have it, that's certainly an option. However, like I said, there's nothing wrong with falling back on the reviews to provide citations for the game's mechanics. And even if you do manage to find a free version online, no matter how sketchy the source, it isn't necessary to provide links to instruction manuals; something like would suffice.

 * That's good to know that I can reference without having to upload nor provide links (in fear of copyright laws) and/or use freer alternatives to the manual itself. —  bee tricks  ~ 💬 · ✉️ 17:53, 3 June 2021 (UTC)
 * Okay, so I've taken the option to purchase the actual manual   (save me)    and I'll go from there. It's going to arrive c.  11~15 June so I'll further discuss the Gameplay section and let you review after I've typed the content in. —  bee tricks  ~ 💬 · ✉️ 18:02, 9 June 2021 (UTC)
