Super Mario Bros. 3

edit

The graphics section was not incorrect garbage. It was talking about how the game uses the system's capabilities. Frankyboy5 06:59, 28 October 2006 (UTC)Reply


Disputed fair use rationale for Image:Egypt famicom screenshot.png

edit

Thanks for uploading Image:Egypt famicom screenshot.png. However, there is a concern that the rationale you have provided for using this image under "fair use" may be invalid. Please read the instructions at Wikipedia:Non-free content carefully, then go to the image description page and clarify why you think the image qualifies for fair use. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to ensure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If it is determined that the image does not qualify under fair use, it will be deleted within a couple of days according to our criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot (talk) 19:55, 13 February 2008 (UTC)Reply

Atari Flashback edits

edit

Had to revert most of your edits, as they were incorrect. Only the first Flashback is based on Nintendo clone hardware, which was already mentioned in that section. The Flashback 2 and 2+ are based on a recreation of the Atari 2600 on a custom single chip. I.E., it's Atari 2600 clone hardware. --Marty Goldberg (talk) 15:20, 28 May 2010 (UTC)Reply

OTVDM moved to draftspace

edit

Thanks for your contributions to OTVDM. Unfortunately, I do not think it is ready for publishing at this time because it needs more sources to establish notability. I have converted your article to a draft which you can improve, undisturbed for a while.

Please see more information at Help:Unreviewed new page. When the article is ready for publication, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page OR move the page back. Schminnte [talk to me] 19:55, 18 October 2023 (UTC)Reply

Concern regarding Draft:OTVDM

edit

  Hello, Dwedit. This is a bot-delivered message letting you know that Draft:OTVDM, a page you created, has not been edited in at least 5 months. Drafts that have not been edited for six months may be deleted, so if you wish to retain the page, please edit it again or request that it be moved to your userspace.

If the page has already been deleted, you can request it be undeleted so you can continue working on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia. FireflyBot (talk) 17:05, 2 May 2024 (UTC)Reply

Your draft article, Draft:OTVDM

edit
 

Hello, Dwedit. It has been over six months since you last edited the Articles for Creation submission or draft page you started, "OTVDM".

In accordance with our policy that Wikipedia is not for the indefinite hosting of material, the draft has been deleted. When you plan on working on it further and you wish to retrieve it, you can request its undeletion. An administrator will, in most cases, restore the submission so you can continue to work on it.

Thank you for your submission to Wikipedia, and happy editing. Liz Read! Talk! 16:01, 1 June 2024 (UTC)Reply

Proposed deletion of Micronics

edit
 

The article Micronics has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:

Fails WP:GNG; could not find any reliable source and the only source here is of dubious reliability.

While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, pages may be deleted for any of several reasons.

You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}} notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.

Please consider improving the page to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}} will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion.
