Championship Fishing (PC CD) has been moved to Championship Fishing
[edit]Hi, just wanted to let you know that I moved Championship Fishing (PC CD) to Championship Fishing, as the parenthetical was not necessary there. A couple of other protips to help you out:
- Try and avoid using the second-person you when writing articles. Use the third-person perspective, like "the player".
- Include sources for whatever you add. It can be just a plain weblink after what you add if you don't yet understand how adding references works; see Wikipedia:Citing sources for more details on how to cite sources on stuff in which you add.
- Avoid original research. I did remove some material from the article in which you wrote because it seemed like you were giving your own opinions or observations. Instead, here at Wikipedia, we use reliable, independent sources to support claims made. Writing Wikipedia articles is almost like writing research papers, in which you would have cite whatever claims you would like.
Finally, in that Championship Fishing article, you may want to provide some more context, such as who released the game, when was it released, and very basic information like that. Hopefully this helps you out a little more. –MuZemike 08:36, 12 January 2011 (UTC)
