Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Lloyd Garmadon (2nd nomination)

I don't wanna talk to the admin's talk page. But, I felt like this AfD closure was kinda awful. Wdyt personally? GreenishPickle! (🔔) 00:52, 6 April 2024 (UTC)

@Greenish Pickle!: I think the point was that there is no consensus to delete outright. You are free to start a merge discussion right away if you think it ought to be merged. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:31, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
Yeah, the result should be no consensus or at least be relisted. But, it doesn't matter anyway. GreenishPickle! (🔔) 06:47, 6 April 2024 (UTC)
In AfD, a "no consensus" is only when there is not agreement whether to delete the article. Here there was agreement it should be kept, but some people argued for a merge. That's what I think the reasoning was here. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 08:55, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

Draft:Metallic Child and unreliable sources

You said that some sources are unreliable. But which sources are unreliable and why are they unreliable? EternalNub (talk) 05:01, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

@EternalNub: See WP:VG/S. The community has sorted most sites into reliable and unreliable, based on the editorial staff and whether one can assume they are factual and trustworthy. In this case, both Nintendo Life and TouchArcade are reliable, which is why they have a listing in the review box, though that's still not quite enough to pass notability criteria. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:07, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
I added two more sources which are in spanish. One is MeriStation. EternalNub (talk) 05:30, 7 April 2024 (UTC)
@EternalNub:I am unsure of "No Somos Ñoños" as it seems very much like a standard blog, but Meristation is reliable. Remove or fix anything that depends on The Indie Game Website or Hey Poor Player and we should be good.
I'd personally suggest expanding the article a bit more though, based on those 3 reliable sources, as right now it would still be considered Stub-class. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 05:42, 7 April 2024 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free image File:Final Fantasy VI World of Ruin.png

⚠
⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Final Fantasy VI World of Ruin.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 02:15, 17 April 2024 (UTC)

Deathclaw dev info

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QPu9K4m4Y-k This just dropped from the guy responsible for the model work in 3 and 4. Dunno if you'll ever be able to revive the subject, but figured at the least you'd appreciate the behind the scenes. Kung Fu Man (talk) 05:05, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

It's sick to have a thing like that exist, though unfortunately being a primary source it is totally useless to revive the article. And I did notice this since then, but, well, I think you can tell why I would be hesitant to use that as the basis for any sort of notability consideration. I do think there is a decent chance of some Deathclaw discourse when Season 2 of the show comes out, since the creators alluded to the fact that Deathclaws will be the main focus of at least something, and they avoided showing them to make it a major reveal for non-Fallout players. If there is any chance for the article to be notable it will be then, IMO. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 06:43, 20 April 2024 (UTC)

Speedy deletion nomination of Simulated reality (disambiguation)

If this is the first article that you have created, you may want to read the guide to writing your first article.

You may want to consider using the Article Wizard to help you create articles.

A tag has been placed on Simulated reality (disambiguation) requesting that it be speedily deleted from Wikipedia. This has been done under section G14 of the criteria for speedy deletion, because it is a disambiguation page which either

  • disambiguates only one extant Wikipedia page and whose title ends in "(disambiguation)" (i.e., there is a primary topic);
  • disambiguates zero extant Wikipedia pages, regardless of its title; or
  • is an orphaned redirect with a title ending in "(disambiguation)" that does not target a disambiguation page or page that has a disambiguation-like function.

Under the criteria for speedy deletion, such pages may be deleted at any time. Please see the disambiguation page guidelines for more information.

If you think this page should not be deleted for this reason, you may contest the nomination by visiting the page and clicking the button labelled "Contest this speedy deletion". This will give you the opportunity to explain why you believe the page should not be deleted. However, be aware that once a page is tagged for speedy deletion, it may be deleted without delay. Please do not remove the speedy deletion tag from the page yourself, but do not hesitate to add information in line with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines. If the page is deleted, and you wish to retrieve the deleted material for future reference or improvement, then please contact the deleting administrator.

RFA2024 update: phase I concluded, phase II begins

Hi there! Phase I of the Wikipedia:Requests for adminship/2024 review has concluded, with several impactful changes gaining community consensus and proceeding to various stages of implementation. Some proposals will be implemented in full outright; others will be discussed at phase II before being implemented; and still others will proceed on a trial basis before being brought to phase II. The following proposals have gained consensus:

See the project page for a full list of proposals and their outcomes. A huge thank-you to everyone who has participated so far :) looking forward to seeing lots of hard work become a reality in phase II. theleekycauldron (talk), via MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 08:09, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Reason?

Hey Zxcvbnm, you recently edited Back to Bed, in which you removed the Cubed3 ratings, which I understand, you also removed the Nintendo Switch section, which I also understand as it only had its ratings in Metacritic and GameSpace.com which is an unknown source. I just don't understand why you left Gaming Age incomplete. You removed its ratings and its mention in the section, but you didn't remove it from the template, leaving a row full of 'N/A's, could you reply and let me know whether you'll do it or I can do it myself. Sincerely, MKsLifeInANutshell (talk) 08:17, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

@MKsLifeInANutshell: It was an accident, I meant to remove Gaming Age entirely as a not fully reliable source. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 12:31, 5 May 2024 (UTC)

Qwerty

Why am I now realizing your name is the bottom of the qwerty keyboard haha MKsLifeInANutshell (talk) 13:50, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

Can you help rename the categories that I marked for speedy renaming?

Hi Zxcvbmm. I have moved the category Video game types to the section denoting the primary classifications for video games (in the Video games category) as a whole, therefore it should be renamed to Video games by type. I also marked the category called Microphone-controlled computer games for speedy renaming to the more appropriate name. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 20:26, 11 May 2024 (UTC)

Re: Cait Sith move

Left a shout on there, but I agree with the move. However, the more I dig into things, I think it may be a better idea to move it to Cait Sith (Final Fantasy VII), because apparently there's another major Cait Sith in the franchise. Kung Fu Man (talk) 12:28, 14 May 2024 (UTC)

Does the category for games using proced. gen. deserve to stay?

Hi, again. I have listed Category:Video games using procedural generation for deletion because it's not defining and kind of lame as thousands of games (that are not even listed) including hundreds of sandbox, strategy, and city building games all have some sort of randomly-generated maps.

Wussuuuup!!!

Howdy Zxcvbnm! Have you noticed something? I recently manually moved all articles and subcategories that were in Category:Video game gameplay to other desirable categories. I did this due to the fact that any gameplay element would also be a video game term, and I want to avoid overcategorization and inconsistency. I hope you agree with this change. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 01:49, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

@QuantumFoam66: This would have properly been a matter for CfD merge proposal, not manually doing it yourself, in order to make sure your changes actually stick.
I have no personal issue with it, as I previously attempted to fold the gameplay category into a different one (which, btw, was opposed) but if someone does happen to disagree and decides to reverse your changes, your effort may be wasted. Next time I'd suggest a discussion. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 02:02, 14 June 2024 (UTC)

Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/Girl Next Door (anime)

Hello, Zxcvbnm,

I think this was too soon for a SNOW close. Typical snow closes have 8-12 Keep votes and no Delete votes and this had a fraction of that total. Please do not cut discussions off too short, there is really nothing controversial for letting a discussion run 7 days unless there is a mammoth level of Keep support which wasn't the case here. I'm not saying that I would have closed it differently a week after it was opened, I just know from experience that you don't want to give an editor a reason to bring a closure to Deletion Review. Thanks. Liz Read! Talk! 04:48, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

Understood, I guess I will only do it in extreme circumstances. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 11:37, 24 June 2024 (UTC)

A concern with AHI-3000

AHI-3000 has recently re-created Category:Comedy video games. I do not think this category should be revived. Comedy is very subjective when it comes to video games.

He has also recently created, Video games by narrative genre, which might need to be merged with Video games by theme, or in perhaps purged by creating a category called video games by topic, which would strictly only contain the video games categories that typically begin with "Video games about", as opposed to "Romance video games", "Western video games" etc QuantumFoam66 (talk) 04:23, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

@QuantumFoam66: Then go talk about it in Wikipedia:Categories for discussion instead of passive-aggressively gossiping about me specifically. You think I didn't notice this? AHI-3000 (talk) 04:25, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
@AHI-3000: Technically the proper place to talk about it would be at YOUR talk page, due to it being an issue with your editing, but you disingenuously delete legitimate concerns before they have run their course and fail to archive discussions, making it impossible to have a serious discussion. Please set up talk page archiving and stop removing things from your page and people will have less of a desire to talk "behind your back", as sending you a message seems to fall upon deaf ears.
@QuantumFoam66: Yes, the recreation should have probably been discussed at WP:VG before happening. There is no page for Comedy video game, only Comedy in video games because there is no such thing as a "comedy video game" genre. The category should not exist. I will go ahead and nominatae it for deletion. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 07:06, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

WPVG Announcements

Hey Zxcvbnm. I recently nominated IGN Convention for deletion, but it does not seem to appear in the WPVG Announcements template at WT:VG. Just wanted to know how to make it show up there. MK at your service. 15:54, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

@MKsLifeInANutshell: As far as I know it's auto updated on a delay so you should just wait for it to show up later. AfDs last for at least a week so there's definitely time. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 16:06, 17 July 2024 (UTC)
Okay, thanks! MK at your service. 16:08, 17 July 2024 (UTC)

Can I edit this rejected Draft?

I think I finally found something that might make Draft:The Henry Stickmin Collection notable for Wikipedia. I'm asking for permission to edit it because it seems to be conclusively rejected.

I found out that TyC Sports (The spanish page for it is better), an argentine sports channel that also covers video games, has covered Henry Stickmin in two articles, and this time they aren't just brief mentions! Obviously TyC Sports alone isn't enough coverage, but we also have the Screen Rant article, so that could make Henry Stickmin notable (according to this category, two reliable in-depth sources are the minimum). Screen Rant also gave Henry Stickmin some decent depth in this one.

Again, just making sure I can edit it, since I'm new to drafts. Bonus Person (talk) 01:28, 18 July 2024 (UTC)

I know we butt heads at AfD a fair bit, but I'd like to give this to you either way. You've been consistently participating in AfDs to an extent that is genuinely impressive, and even if we disagree at times, your contributions to AfD have been highly positive over the past few years.
