add guts and blackpowder?

edit

guts and blackpowder is a game on roblox set in the Napoleonic wars where instead if fighting other soldiers there are zombies it has become somewhat popular and i think it should be on this list i will put the link to the official G&B here if someone would like to read it to get a better idea of the game to add it to the page sorry i could not get the link working Timetocheese (talk) 01:09, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

Need multiple reliable sources. Miraheze and other Wikis are not reliable per WP:USERG. -- ferret (talk) 02:11, 17 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
The miraheze wiki is the OFFICIAL G&B wiki, It has a bunch of info on G&B and its game play. There might not be a lot but it still has ENOUGH info. Thomasthetankenginefan123 (talk) 15:16, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
A wiki contains user generated content - did you read the WP:USERG link above? Along with other self-published sources WP:SPS it is unlikely that it would be considered a reliable source WP:RS. Does G&B have, for example, extensive coverage in secondary sources such as nationally-recognised gaming magazines or professional produced/published review sites? 10mmsocket (talk) 15:30, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
do these 2 count? https://www.sportskeeda.com/roblox-news/roblox-guts-blackpowder-features-and-badges and https://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/VideoGame/GutsAndBlackpowder Thomasthetankenginefan123 (talk) 15:58, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
One is very clearly a wiki - the first clue is in the URL, the second in the "Login" and "History" links on the page. However, sportskeeda.com is more like what I'm talking about - a gaming website which appears on the face of it to be published by a company with perhaps some editorial control and by more than one person. BUT... when you search the archives at WP:RSN and see if it is listed at WP:RSNP you find that indeed it is listed on the latter and is tagged as   Generally unreliable / questionable. 10mmsocket (talk) 17:17, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
while it is called a wiki only the devs of the game can edit it Timetocheese (talk) 23:41, 11 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
(also btw here's some reason another wiki thingy or smth idk about G&B https://en.namu.wiki/w/Guts%20%26%20Blackpowder Thomasthetankenginefan123 (talk) 15:50, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
Yes, it's a wiki. No it cannot be used for the reasons given above. 10mmsocket (talk) 17:18, 7 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
k Thomasthetankenginefan123 (talk) 14:21, 13 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
i know it is a wiki and unreliable i put that there in the meantime until i could find a better source Timetocheese (talk) 23:38, 11 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Request adding The Strongest Battleground

edit

I found The Strongest Battleground has gone popular these days. Can we add this game to list with reliable sources? EpikAccount (talk) 03:21, 13 October 2024 (UTC)Reply

that game is pretty popular... but unfortunately, i couldn't churn out any sources for it. brachy08 (chat here lol) 09:50, 23 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Add Stepford County Railway

edit

Add it or else I will add SCR references on all British rail trains that are featured in SCR, starting with the HST. HansTheExplorer (talk) 10:30, 3 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

And I, in turn, will block you for vandalism. --Redrose64 🌹 (talk) 14:32, 3 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
I see that this childish approach has contributed to HansTheExplorer's permanent block. Wikipedia is a better place now. 10mmsocket (talk) 19:21, 3 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Probably add Opposer VR

edit

Opposer VR is a VR experimental shooter on Roblox. It has over 20 million visits and is one of the most popular VR roblox shooters out there. It has a pretty good community despite not being updated in a while and has been raising in popularity recently. Westboii Lolz (talk) 15:52, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Sounds good. So read WP:WTAF and once you have a decent well-referenced article about Opposer VR we can add it to the list. 10mmsocket (talk) 15:55, 14 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
My bad, I'm quite inexperienced.
Something like this:
Opposer VR is an experimental VR shooter where players start with 2 gamemodes to choose from: Traitor Trouble, and Free For All. In Traitor Trouble, players are chosen to be 1 of 3 types: Innocent, where their goal is to survive and kill the Traitors - Traitors, where their goal is to kill everyone except for their kind - and the Detective, where their goal is to kill all the Traitors and protect the Innocents. In Free For All, the assumed goal is to get 1st place on the leaderboard. The game has over 20 million views and 100+ daily players.
Probably cut out the clutter and add some things. Westboii Lolz (talk) 20:08, 15 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
You missed on major thing - independent references that show the game is notable. Look at how the other games in the article are referenced. But not blogs, not wikis, nothing self published in fact - see WP:SPS and WP:UGC. We need quality references from reliable sources WP:RS. 10mmsocket (talk) 06:17, 16 November 2024 (UTC)Reply
I'm sorry, but I don't think Opposer VR is known well enough to be featured on any reliable sources, unless you can give me some websites that are considered "reliable sources" and I'll see if Opposer is on there. westboiizvr (talk) 16:32, 19 November 2024 (UTC)Reply

Add Notoriety to "Licenced Games"

edit

Just recently the game notoriety has been officially licenced by Starbreeze games, owners of the Payday series. you can find info on starbreezes website, along with their twitter acount, @paydaygame, and the roblox game itself. Axtstringfish (talk) 18:00, 13 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

i could find one source, but it's a valnet source, which is a bit dubious... will add it once i find more reliable sources ;D brachy08 (chat here lol) 01:10, 15 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
nvm someone added it brachy08 (chat here lol) 05:51, 16 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Semi-protected edit request on 15 December 2024

edit

hello, I just wanted to say there are a few more games you should add to the examples page, I dislike the fact that many people see the game as entertainment for kids 3+ so maybe some examples of games meant for a older audience like Regretevator, Pressure, maybe even Grace. these were all very influential games showing voice acting and high quality meshes for characters which was never seen before. just a ask from someone who has played a lot of video games on the plaatform MochaDoggo (talk) 00:17, 15 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Um, is Brookhaven RP or other most played games missing and why are there games with less than a billion visits? 99.73.230.112 (talk) 15:32, 29 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

  Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. Cannolis (talk) 17:10, 29 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
but Brookhaven RP is missing and that game is super popular so can you please add it 99.73.230.112 (talk) 19:21, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
Unless you can present reliable sources that specifically talk about the game from a critics standpoint in significant detail (so basically, no games guides), then no. λ NegativeMP1 19:25, 30 December 2024 (UTC)Reply

Bee Swarm Simulator

edit

Clearly, this is old and hasn't been updated for a while now. I would just like this game's description to be updated, as it's a very popular game, having hit 3 billion visits as of writing, that has been in multiple events. Idk how to update articles very well, so I just want to put this out there. Maybe if someone has the time, update other game descriptions as well. Thank you for your time in reading this :) Pokémon&BandGeek (talk) 01:28, 31 December 2024 (UTC)Reply
