I probably mentioned to you before that I have been compiling an enormous list of deleted and redirected tabletop games articles. It is truly epic, but by carving out more specific sets of articles it could be manageable; I have gotten help getting one or two restored here and there, and even done a few on my own. I think you are probably most comfortable with RPGs published in the 2010s because you have a skill at finding reviews published online. Would you like to take a look at this list below and see if there is anything with potential to be restored/rebuilt?:
Of course, I can restore anything that has been deleted, so if you see anything here worth working on let me know! BOZ ( talk) 17:47, 1 January 2022 (UTC)
Do you have any sources that could help improve Josh Mosqueira? BOZ ( talk) 01:23, 10 January 2022 (UTC)
Ogre (board game) has been nominated for GAR - not the biggest deal in the world to keep it as a GA, but never hurts to have the recognition. BOZ ( talk) 13:36, 20 January 2022 (UTC)
Good work on Jason Carl! If you have more sources like that for any pages at User:BOZ/Draft pages maybe we could get some of those republished! Or beyond that, if you spot anything else at User:BOZ/Games deletions#Designers and artists that you want to take a shot at, we can get the page restored to draft space. :) BOZ ( talk) 14:11, 7 February 2022 (UTC)
Great work on the drow article too - I started working on it a long time ago to try to fit every bit of publication info I could in there... probably more than a little overkill, so judicious trimming is a good call. LOL BOZ ( talk) 05:03, 8 February 2022 (UTC)
Do you see anything that could help with Ethan Skemp which is at PROD? BOZ ( talk) 13:23, 9 February 2022 (UTC)
Do you have anything that might help Draft:Scott Fitzgerald Gray get back into article space? BOZ ( talk) 19:05, 1 March 2022 (UTC)
There are a number of podcast / actual play articles in draft space, are any of them worth working on?
BOZ ( talk) 01:57, 3 March 2022 (UTC)
Do you see any more sources to help build the reception section on the Origins award-winning Adventures in Middle-earth which was once nominated for AFD? BOZ ( talk) 16:48, 20 March 2022 (UTC)
I don't know if you got a chance to see these before they were deleted, but you were pretty new here at that time. :) I got Draft:List of Dungeons & Dragons 4th edition monsters and Draft:List of Dungeons & Dragons 5th edition monsters (and all the other editions) restored to draft space with the intention of getting them built up well enough to move back into article space in time. :) The 2E list never got deleted, so that was built up considerably over time, with all sorts of new independent sources. Starting last week I mostly copied all of that information to the other lists, although I'm sure some of it does not make sense to be listed on every edition, but whereas most of these lists had few if any non-primary sources, they now have dozens - if not over 100! :) BOZ ( talk) 22:06, 13 April 2022 (UTC)
If you come across any sources that would be useful for List of Spelljammer crystal spheres let me know, so I can request it to be moved to draft space. :) Likewise if you see anything for Monsters of Spelljammer ( [21]). I know those are minutiae, but you never know what might come up, there were plenty of sources for Ravenloft fictional elements when a sourcebook for that setting was printed not long ago! BOZ ( talk) 17:54, 22 April 2022 (UTC)
Would Draft:Coyote & Crow be worthy of your time and effort? I saw someone posting about it and found the idea fascinating at least. BOZ ( talk) 22:26, 11 May 2022 (UTC)
Do you have any sources which could help with Doug Kovacs? BOZ ( talk) 02:17, 22 May 2022 (UTC)
How about for Infernum (role-playing game)? BOZ ( talk) 12:43, 26 May 2022 (UTC)
Do you see anything more for Peter J. Wacks, who has done some work on CCGs? BOZ ( talk) 22:29, 5 June 2022 (UTC)
You did a good job with the review section for episode 1 of Ms. Marvel, so not sure if you're interested in adding reviews for the other episodes. Episode 4 can move to the mainspace once it has reviews. -- Zoo ( talk) 19:32, 3 July 2022 (UTC)
A draft was started at Draft:Ajit George for one of the authors of your Draft:Journeys through the Radiant Citadel in case you have anything you want to add to that. :) BOZ ( talk) 19:35, 7 July 2022 (UTC)
I started The Monsters Know What They’re Doing last week, and hope to add more articles on recent Ennie Award winners. :) BOZ ( talk) 17:12, 11 July 2022 (UTC)
Do you see anything for Lisa Trutkoff Trumbauer? BOZ ( talk) 03:23, 18 July 2022 (UTC)
Hi, good work on the Kamala Khan draft. Just a heads up, I recommend using WP:LDR, preferably not to clutter text with refs in diffs (did that rhyme?) I advise to add some archives to Cite web templates and perhaps replace the mutant refs with the same mutant refs from Marvel Cinematic Universe, Draft:Mutant (Marvel Cinematic Universe), and Draft:No Normal (also WP:INFOBOXREF). — SirDot ( talk) 23:26, 16 July 2022 (UTC)

Continuing on with Ennies Award winners, I started Forbidden Lands and Down Darker Trails just now. :) BOZ ( talk) 02:23, 27 August 2022 (UTC)
I also started Eternal Lies which is enough of these Ennies Award winners for now, and someone else started Ironsworn in case you see anything more to help that one? BOZ ( talk) 20:12, 12 September 2022 (UTC)
Someone started Draft:Spelljammer: Adventures in Space but it needs a lot of work, in case you were interested in building a draft up. BOZ ( talk) 14:19, 17 September 2022 (UTC)
Not sure if you have anything for Draft:Evil Genius Productions, but it's there if you do. :) BOZ ( talk) 20:14, 22 September 2022 (UTC)
In case you have anything for Draft:Steamforged Games, there is a draft. :) Looks like they did some miniatures for Critical Role among other projects: [24] BOZ ( talk) 17:49, 2 November 2022 (UTC)
I started 2022 ENNIE Award winners today, finally. :) Speaking of Steamforged, they won one this year, as did the above mentioned Banana Chan. :) BOZ ( talk) 22:34, 8 November 2022 (UTC)
Draft:Bell of Lost Souls Interactive is a new article that may be worth taking a look at. BOZ ( talk) 05:21, 12 November 2022 (UTC)
They keep trying at AFC with Draft:Evil Genius Productions but haven't been successful yet, do you see anything for that? BOZ ( talk) 13:05, 27 November 2022 (UTC)
Just letting you know that I requested for Orc (Dungeons & Dragons) to be undeleted and moved to draft space where I was able to add a few sources from the AD&D 2nd edition monster list, and I recently moved it back into article space and was able to adapt some text from the D&D controversies page. :) I think with all of that it's pretty safe from being deleted again? BOZ ( talk) 15:54, 19 December 2022 (UTC)
Thanks for keeping an eye on the TSR article. The same IP who edited that one also tried to rewrite new TSR stuff on the Jeff R. Leason article but that got reverted. BOZ ( talk) 18:00, 20 December 2022 (UTC)
Hi there! I just added a stub for Dungeon Delve, using a source you added to a different article, in case you have more to add to it. BOZ ( talk) 04:03, 25 December 2022 (UTC)
Just wanted to say thank you for adding the source / quote to entry for Straight Up on the asexual representation article. I've been frustrated lately when other editors just remove edits that fall short instead of improving them, so it was refreshing to see another editor collaborate to create useful information. Camipco ( talk) 05:39, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
It definitely improves the page and makes it that much better, especially on Critical Role. I had previously only described Nimona as a comic rather than a webcomic because it was a webcomic, but later it was published in a book form. So, I suppose it is better to just call it a webcomic. -- Historyday01 ( talk) 23:36, 6 March 2022 (UTC)
Hello.
I see you reverted my edit. Let us talk about it. I am afraid that the root of the "problem" is that you are pro-mobiles, while I am pro-computers.
It could be my mobile or the mobile browser I use, but I completely disagree on your statement "makes it more accessible (especially on mobile)".
Anyway, years ago I created a page titled "List of Dragonlance novels by author", because the books by the same author often have consistency (e.g. Richard Knaak is the author of all the stories of Kaz the Minotaur) and one author usually has a consistent writing style. The page was deleted when the main "List of Dragonlance novels" was turned into a sortable table. Indeed, if you can sort one, single table by author, the page "List of Dragonlance novels by author" becomes redundant.
On the other hand, splitting the table into decades means forcing a sorting order by publication year. In this case, the page "List of Dragonlance novels by author" should be restored.
(By the way, what does "rvt" mean? I found 27 meanings for it (on abbreviations.com), and none fits.)
This is my point of view, I assure you I am in good faith, and I am sure your point of view takes into account something that did not occur to me. I will gladly read your opinion. -- Abacos ( talk) 14:26, 5 July 2022 (UTC)
Dear Sariel Xilo, I mentioned you at Wikipedia:Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents. The thread is "FrankensteinsDad".---Lilach5 ( לילך5) discuss 04:49, 24 July 2022 (UTC)
Did you miss my ping at Talk:Magic: The Gathering rules#August 2022? I'd be interested in what you have to say there. * Pppery * it has begun... 00:46, 13 September 2022 (UTC)
Hello Sariel. I think we disagree on what a prequel is. According to this same Wikipedia, too, a prequel is a work of fiction released later, but taking place earlier than the original work. Baldur's Gate: Descent into Avernus was published before Baldur's Gate III, therefore it is not a prequel, but a prologue. The quoted people who called it a "prequel" are wrong. It is not my personal opinion, it is the definition of the word "prequel". -- Abacos ( talk) 00:27, 4 November 2022 (UTC)
