"Auto-generated by YouTube"

edit

If some facts on a webpage were "Auto-generated by YouTube" then they are not considered reliable per WP:RS, especially the parts about a reliable source being known for fact-checking, and about whether the author is reliable. An automated function cannot be considered a form of fact checking. With no author listed, the source is severely hampered in reliability. Binksternet (talk) 03:51, 5 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Five Nights at Freddy's

edit

Can you kindly provide a source that supports adding multiple Five Nights at Freddys games to next-gen categories. — Niche-gamer 09:59, 11 October 2020 (UTC)Reply

Sorry, I now realize that that was a mistake. Most of the Five Nights at Freddy's are going to be backwards compatible for PS5, but not necessarily re-released on PS5. Same for Xbox Series X/S. I will fix that immediately.

From MisterNerdly: Thanks for spell checking my edits to the FNaF 3 page. I appreciate it. I didn't like how the page referred to Springtrap as "The animatronic" or as "it" since William Afton, who is Springtrap, is a he. So I tried to make the page as accurate as possible. When I have more time I'm going to replace the rest of the "it"s in that context with "he"s.

Hey, I see you've been going around and unnecessarily adding piped links to redirects in the infoboxes for several video games. There is no beneficial reason to do this per WP:NOTBROKEN and WP:NOPIPE. ~ Dissident93 (talk) 08:20, 23 October 2021 (UTC)Reply

"Unnecessary archiving"

edit

Hey! I noticed that you removed some archive links from sources on Pokemon Unite, claiming it's "unnecessary archiving". May I ask why? You should probably see some of the points raised on Whoop whoop pull up's talk page, but if you still think it's unnecessary then that's fine. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 02:38, 3 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

In my opinion, I believe that preemptive archiving is not necessary for articles that have a low likelihood of going down, such as most video game review articles. Of course, it's basically impossible to tell if a link is going to go down in the future, but, from what I've seen, video game review articles rarely go down, especially if it is on a website that is still in operation. Even when links to reviews do go dead, there is almost always a good archive on the Wayback Machine. That's my stance, but if you believe that it is that important, you can add them back into the refs. Sorry about that. I wasn't really aware about the whole "preemptive archiving" thing, so I won't remove any "unnecessary archiving" in the future. ArojamDharkon (talk) 03:35, 3 March 2022 (UTC)Reply
Alright that makes sense. Usually I will still archive it when it's something that's brand new and so opinions might change quickly. ― Blaze WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 03:39, 3 March 2022 (UTC)Reply

CGM's inclusion in video game review tables/other suggestions

edit

Hi! I noticed that you've been editing CGM's reviews into video game reception tables. I only recently realized this, but CGM, the website you cite online, and CGM (Computer Games Magazine), the website Wikipedia thinks you're referring to, are two separate sites entirely. Wikipedia's Computer Games Magazine is a print magazine that went defunct all the way back in 2007, so I ask that you not edit modern CGM articles into video game reception tables. I've also noticed that you've been including platform specific reviews, writing PS5:, XSX:, or PC: before each publication's review score. However, I don't think that's necessary unless there are significant differences between versions on different platforms. For example, the reception between an Xbox Series X/PS5 and a Nintendo Switch title may differ because of poor technical performance on the Switch. Or take Elden Ring, which had much more significant technical issues exclusively on PC at launch. That's when I think it's more important for you to distinguish between individual platforms on video game reception tables. Thank you!

Review template

edit

Hi! I am just writing here to remind you that per the instructions in Template:video game reviews, we only include reviews in the review template only if they are cited within the text. That means that a reception section should not only include the review box and nothing else. I have seen that you have systematically included a bunch of reviews into video game articles. I want to remind you that our function here is not to serve as Metacritic where we list a collection of scores. We want to give an overview of the game's reception to the general public, and simply listing out the scores is not really helpful. OceanHok (talk) 12:35, 26 April 2022 (UTC)Reply

Removing short descriptions

edit

Please don't remove the short descriptions on articles. See WP:SHORTDESC for their functionality. – The Grid (talk) 03:16, 5 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

The reason I did that is because the short descriptions should have been changed from "single by Gorilaz and [x feature]" to "single by Gorillaz featuring [x]". So, I removed those short descriptions because the automatic short description was the correct way. I don't know the exact rules for that (if a manual short description should be removed if it is automatically created). Do you know the guidelines for that? Anyways, in hindsight, I should have just edited the short descriptions to be the correct way. Apologies for the misunderstanding. ArojamDharkon (talk) 03:54, 5 November 2022 (UTC)Reply

Re Feel Good Inc. Origin

edit

Hey I just wanted to tell you that I wrote the Gorillaz wiki origin for Gorillaz, I didn’t plagiarise so don’t accuse me. I got the information on the way back machine and those are the links. What am I supposed to do? Thanks Grlzman (talk) 18:29, 17 March 2023 (UTC)Reply

@Grlzman, I apologize for accusing you of plagiarism. However, you still should not just copy and paste the exact same thing you wrote from the Gorillaz Wiki. Can you provide the actual Wayback Machine links because I tried putting the links you provided into the Wayback Machine and got no archives. I really want to add some of this information into the article, but I can't seem to access the information to verify it. Thanks. ArojamDharkon (talk) 23:20, 17 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
I can’t seem to access them either. They were originally working for on the web but now they are gone. I think I might of possibly misunderstood which interviews were on the way back machine. Apologies about that. But I got all this info from ChatGPT who provided the info with links to the interviews and I also got the info from an ultimate guitar article Grlzman (talk) 12:33, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Grlzman I don't think I need to explain why just because ChatGPT generated a link, it doesn't mean it's an actual link and that ChatGPT got actual verified information about the song. And the Ultimate Guitar article seems a bit questionable, but I was able to get a few sources from the wiki section[1] of the Ultimate Guitar website that could be used. But none of the reliable sources that I found say that Morgan Nicholls played bass on "Feel Good Inc.". Not even his own website[2] says he played on Demon Days or "Feel Good Inc.". Just that he played the live shows. ArojamDharkon (talk) 23:53, 18 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
I understand but he did mention making the bassline it’s just that the links don’t work. It was an interview by music radar Grlzman (talk) 12:36, 19 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
You know what fine if you don’t want accurate info Grlzman (talk) 17:52, 27 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
@Grlzman How can it be accurate information if there are no reliable, verifiable sources that support it? I'm pretty certain that most of those links are made up because, as you said yourself, you got them from ChatGPT which is known for almost always giving false or made-up links and references. I would love to add this information and it make it more well-known if it was actually supported by reliable sources that are accessible and verifiable. Again, if you can find actual links from reliable sources that are able to be accessed, you can add the information from those sources. ArojamDharkon (talk) 03:18, 28 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
He has been credited by Vinyl Rewind and bass buzz, both highly considered YouTubers, as the bass player man. Grlzman (talk) 14:27, 7 April 2023 (UTC)Reply

Five Nights at Freddy's

edit

Hello, can you kindly explain why did you revert this edit? Quirino il Grande (talk) 02:33, 16 June 2023 (UTC)Reply

I reverted it because the number next to the reference number indicates what page of that source is being used in that sentence. The source is a book, so the page number is used to cite which page of the book that information was found. ArojamDharkon (talk) 04:54, 16 June 2023 (UTC)Reply
