Hi there. Why did you delete
my Request for comment edit? Okay, so it needs to be added automatically, and not manually like I did? But it still looked consistent with other content neighboring my Request. Alright, what do I need to do to put it across?

Let me try again. The page
Wikipedia:WikiProject Video games/Article alerts is updated by a bot. You can see in
that page's history, nobody else is editing it. Anything you add will be ignored and overwritten by the bot when it runs. In short, this is not the page where you would add your entries, in this case RfC. What you need to do is follow stamdard
Wikipedia:RFC instructions -- go to
Talk:The Last of Us, make a new section, add an {{rfc}} tag, post your comments. The bot will see this and update the page next run (tomorrow). You don't need to do anything else. —

But a comment from those who played the game (familiar with the plot) would be more helpful and useful. So how does one gets one's request to be added to the to do list? The game is related to video games, it's a video game. So...

It will be added automatically by the bot during the next run (tomorrow). It has been less than a day since the RfC was started and the bot only runs once a day. —

Really? That's great! Also, now I'm a bit curious. How does bot know that this should be added to the video game portal's to do list? Does he check articles under categories "video games" or what? I guess it's some sort of a tech question.
