Unsourced gamecruft

[edit]

Hi @Sariel Xilo:, you've undone my edit. I should've been more clear in my edit summary, it's a huge heap of WP:GAMETRIVIA. Let's take a look at the differences between my edit and its current status:

  • the image is of the cover of the first game, while this article is about the series
  • The release table is unnecessary I believe, especially when it's directly followed by a release timeline sidebar  Done
  • I would move the remake section up, since, well, it's a remake and not a new game
  • I moved the characters up, as characters are often considered part of the plot  Done
  • A section called "new introductions" is just odd, it's part of this particular series and it's entirely unsourced (per WP:BURDEN, it's up to you to add sources, otherwise please remove it again)  Done
  • The list of comics is unnecessary, no information whatsoever (WP:NOTDIRECTORY)  Done
  • A section on "cinematic trailers" is also unnecessary  Done

Please take a moment to check my edits and incorporate them into article, if not just reinstate them all together. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 16:47, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the more detailed explanation; I added some checkmarks to your list above to track changes. The new introductions section (which included characters) appeared to be an attempt to highlight new aspects introduced to the game; I folded that into either the gameplay or synopsis sections depending. I also moved the list of comics into the comics dedicated article. I think info about the cinematic trailers could be added to a marketing section but I don't have time right now to do a deep dive into how the series has been marketed over time. I disagree about moving the remake section up since it is essentially the start of something new; I updated the headings (Original series, Remake, Other games) to differentiate between them. The image could be replaced with a series logo but it's not uncommon to include the cover art of the first in a series. Sariel Xilo (talk) 18:51, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Hi @Sariel Xilo:, fantastic work you've been doing. The article looks a lot better already! The remake part isn't a point of contention for me, it also works fine this way. I've tweaked the infobox a bit and tagged it with {{cn}}, but it's already in way better shape it ever was. Thanks, and happy editing. soetermans. ↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK 20:03, 15 November 2022 (UTC)[reply]
