[edit]

Information icon Hello, I'm Woodroar. I noticed that you added or changed content in an article, Infinite Flight, but you didn't provide a reliable source. It's been removed and archived in the page history for now, but if you'd like to include a citation and re-add it, please do so. You can have a look at referencing for beginners. If you think I made a mistake, you can leave me a message on my talk page. Thank you. Woodroar (talk) 14:22, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Hi Planespotter1, I've reverted your edit at Infinite Flight again. Content on Wikipedia should be supported by reliable, third-party sources, which means games and tech journalism, newspaper, journals, and so on. We're here to summarize what those expert sources say about the subject, and to do so dispassionately. Phrases like "Time to wait and see!" are far too promotional in tone. There were other reasons for reverting:
When it comes to things like logos, SVG images are preferable because they scale across all screen sizes.
Except for sources, we generally don't put external links in the body of articles. See WP:EL for our external links guideline.
We also shouldn't include changelogs, although we will cover game changes (in prose) when they've been covered by reliable sources. See WP:INDISCRIMINATE for more about that.
Also, please don't sign your name on articles.
If you have any questions about the article, I suggest reading the article's talk page (Talk:Infinite Flight) and posting there. I hope this helps. Cheers! Woodroar (talk) 15:20, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry if I wasn't clear, but even these edits are inappropriate. The claims about Infinite Flight's social media accounts, partnerships, and game features are unsourced and promotional, unless they receive coverage in independent reliable sources. The images are unnecessary for such a short article. In addition, the image provided by someone else is a copyright violation, unfortunately; if they agree to release the image, they'll have to upload it themselves.

Thank you for understanding! If you ever find articles about Infinite Flight in mainstream publications, feel free to mention them at Talk:Infinite Flight and we'll see if they can be incorporated into the article. Cheers! Woodroar (talk) 16:08, 18 March 2023 (UTC)[reply]
