User talk:Axem Titanium/Yu-Gi-Oh: The Abridged Series

Potentially useful links

• Interview with LittleKuriboh about the series on an internet radio site

  Not sure how well it will hold up as a reliable source, since 98.1 The Fan isn't well established yet, lack press releases, and interviewer name is missing. But those might not be for interviews. — Dispenser 20:33, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

• the Open Web award win for the series, already listed on the page I believe

  Yup, already fully cited and archived

• Forum thread mentioning attendance at a convention, not useful in and of itself but if another source on that can be found...
• Bottom of the page shows an event for the abridged series taking place at the con.

  Always good to have background information, archived.

• This one is also on the page already
• I believe this one is too...
• And this one. I have a list of links, some of which were followed from the front page
• See above...
• IMDB page for the abridged series

  Added to external links section

• More information on LittleKuriboh than the series, but may be useful nonetheless

  Again good background information, archived.

• Not sure if announcement as a guest at a convention is useful, but several cons are having him appear —Preceding unsigned comment added by 97.76.222.196 (talk) 09:30, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Some of this is old news, of course, but the radio interview at least was less than 20 days ago at time of posting. I'm kind of new to the whole thing, so if someone with more experience could look over these and see if any of them might be of use in getting notability, that would be great.

I've added some of the links using the citation templates and archived other which I suspect might go dead. I'd recommend taking a look at User:Ealdgyth/FAC, Sources, and You, since she's a FAC regular. Overall how the system works is that every fact written must be sourced. We may now have enough information to start writing part of the article — Dispenser 20:33, 27 January 2010 (UTC)

Oh hey, thanks guys! We might get this page back on Wikipedia yet. Axem Titanium (talk) 20:02, 30 January 2010 (UTC)

Sourcing

This is a hard subject to cite.

The series was started on the internet and is technically illegal, so getting "reliable" sources for it is difficult.

Short of citing the episodes themselves, which are often deleted (as they are technically illegal), how can one go about proving its existence?

If anyone has answers to these questions, please help out. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 72.135.227.100 (talk) 02:03, 2008 August 7

It technically isn't illegal as it a parody. You can cite other sources including other wikis including form posts, although they aren't considered very reliable. Try getting posts from the creator. Pure Pwnage seemed to have at one point a similar issues at one time. — Dispenser 05:47, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

If only TVTropes was considered a valid source... Raekuul, bringer of Tropes (He does it without notability) 20:44, 13 January 2009 (UTC)

Isn't it possible to use the Abridged Series website as a source? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.54.213.67 (talk) 05:30, 12 February 2009 (UTC)

That would be consider a primary source. We need reliable secondary sources to backup that primary source. A good project if anyone's looking to do the work would be to interview LittleKuriboh about the abridged series and publisher it in a reputable newspaper or website. — Dispenser 03:24, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

I've added The Skyline View, but I think the external links policy discourages links online stores. — Dispenser 03:24, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

Content added

Hello Everyone, or one, i just did a massive re haul of the page, 23:24, 7 April 2009 —Preceding unsigned comment added by 77night77 (talk • contribs)

I've revert most of you additions a they were copied from the Yu-Gi-Oh! Wikia and while the sources is GFDL, but you failed attribute the source thus making it a copy violation. Other problems included "fancruft" facts and non-encyclopedic tone. Please see WP:MOS:TV. — Dispenser 03:24, 8 April 2009 (UTC)

The first abridged anime.

That's be "Samurai Pizza Cats," since it doesn't qualify as a proper dub. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.17.134.7 (talk) 09:29, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
