Page needs to be cleaned up

The article provides almost no information on what the game is and simple lists off recent activity.

Also many of the points are unsupported opinion.

This article has a lot of what seems to me to be original research. I've added the citation needed tags where appropriate, and will remove unsourced statements if no citations are added in the near future.

To the person who is removing references to Cypher but retaining references to ZSilencer, remember that Wikipedia is supposed to be edited with a neutral POV. You cannot justify removing references to one project under WP:PROMOTION while retaining a similiar project. That is bias. You must allow both or neither. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 15.203.233.75 (talk) 01:50, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You (15.203.233.75 aka 98.197.227.16 aka RGB9000, and other hosts who are probably you) are the one editing in your own proprietary indie game (which uses game assets from silencer with no credit), and removing any simple mention of an actual clone. Just look at the edit history, in particular https://wiki.riteme.site/w/index.php?title=Silencer_(video_game)&diff=next&oldid=563623049 Pewep (talk) 02:35, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Pewep: The edit you called out, I agree was in bad faith. I did not make that edit. In fact, if I had seen that edit as it happened, I would have reverted it. I am in favor of listing all viable clone projects and the better documentation of Silencer history. There are other articles on WP about things that mention clones of that thing, and those articles do not have to suffer daily edit wars. My complaint is that every time Cypher is added as a reference, it is reverted under WP:PROMOTION while Zsilencer, an *identical clone project*, is left alone. They must both be allowed, or both be taken down under WP:PROMOTION, you can't apply the rules selectively. I am of the opinion they should both be allowed as they are both clones of Silencer, and that is what this article is about. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 15.203.233.79 (talk) 22:43, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

After some research, the 2 IPs that removed ZSilencer earlier were 88.181.240.127 and 87.211.16.59, which are both European IPs and NOT mine. So your beef is not with me. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 15.203.233.79 (talk) 22:56, 13 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

For what it's worth, I too would be in favor of listing all viable clone projects. --Eptin (talk) 00:15, 20 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Pewep, a zSilencer proprietor, continues to isolate their own project, and remove Cypher from the list of clones AFTER making the edit of both projects on the page. Clearly they are using Wiki as a platform to promote zSilencer in violation of WP:PROMOTION. Both projects must be allowed or neither will be listed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 89.65.25.12 (talk) 15:40, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Some false assumptions there mate, just trying to clean up article from cruft. Pewep (talk) 20:26, 19 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
