Expansion
[edit]The recent expansion added unreliable sources and trivial detail. The article was originally written to be accessible to a general audience: jargon needs to be minimized and explained, and the level of specificity needs to be generalized for readers who are unfamiliar with Overwatch. czar 10:09, 28 August 2018 (UTC)
- Which sources specifically do you have an issue with? Considering the amount of coverage on Seagull, I can probably replace them. The Squirrel Conspiracy (talk) 23:24, 29 August 2018 (UTC)
- Most of the sources are fine, however I question the reliability/usability of blog-like sites like Esportbet (which is a betting-focused blog), Akshonesports, Vpesports, BenchMob and especially reference to Liquipedia (which is a 100% WP:UGC). Personally I prefer to see either better, more well-known and established secondary sources (which would look less like someone's generic WordPress blog), primary sources such as official announcements on Twitter (yes, it can be used) and official team pages, or reduced amount of content (if it can't be supported by such types of more reliable sources).Omgwtfbbqsomethingrandom (talk) 01:50, 1 September 2018 (UTC)
- dbltap, the Benchmob, Akshon, etc.: any source that does not have established systems of editorial control. I recommend referencing the video game reliable sources custom Google search and our guidelines on reliable sources. In addition, remember that the point is to write a general overview of the subject's career/life, not to delve into details that would not pertain to a general audience. czar 13:51, 2 September 2018 (UTC)

- I'm unwatching this article now, but the current expansion still goes into minutiae irrelevant to a general audience. It should be pared down to minimize jargon and maximize biography for a general reader unfamiliar with e-sports. (not watching, please

Seagull depression
[edit]I don't know if it's a necessary because he only was gone off the internet for 4 month and 15 days (from 26 January 2021 to 10 June 2021 )
here is the vod of the streams of the 10th June, he discuss a bit about his depression, see what his community has created for his return and discuss about updates of videogames (Overwatch, Overwatch 2,...).
I just insert it here just to have a beginning if wikipedia community wants to make a section about his depression.
