Hi there. Just wondering if you intend to work on an article about the Mako? After seeing your work on the Normandy article, I've thought about doing one as I have access to just over a dozen sources which I believe provide significant coverage about it, but wasn't sure if I should do an article since I've noticed that a number of editors on wikipedia take a hardline stance on articles about standalone fictional topics. Haleth ( talk) 07:17, 10 October 2020 (UTC)
Hi. Just thought I'd ask you for a second opinion on the viability of a standalone article for Noble Team from Halo Reach. Another user created a draft article for it (albeit mispelled) and posted it on the Halo Wikiproject page a few months ago. I decided to do a search and see if I could find anything worthwhile to sate my curiosity. I've copy pasted the sources under the references section; it looks to me that reviewers in several reliable sources did talk about how the story and characters made them feel, but I am not sure whether that constitutes enough significant coverage to meet GNG. Note that the current iteration of the Characters of Halo article page does not cover anything about Noble Team at all, though there are a number of Spartan characters.
In the alternative, do you think it's better if a broad Spartan (Halo) article is created instead which incorporates whatever notable coverage for Noble Team as a component, along with coverage of other Spartan characters from Halo 5 and the spin-offs? The general public does associate the Spartan look with Master Chief for a long time, but by 2020 we have several Halo media which do not have Master Chief front and centre, and from what I've read I believe it is arguable that the Spartans as a group of characters are an entrenched part of popular culture by now as distinct from just Master Chief.

I've noticed that you've been on a roll creating or recreating some Fallout universe articles. Earlier this year, The Millionth One who used to be much more active around here shared their collection of sources with me, which I've put to good use for a lot of the Mass Effect/Dragon Age character articles. There is one section for Nick Valentine, which I noticed may have enough coverage to sustain a viable article, but I never made the attempt as I am not particularly knowledgeable about the Fallout franchise, particularly after Bethesda took over. I thought you might be interested, and this would save you time if you are. Haleth ( talk) 20:24, 30 October 2020 (UTC)

Re this:
Thanks for showing me how this can be off-putting in a bad way. It's intentionally meant to "discourage," but the intent is more along the lines of "it's not you, the editor, it really is the topic, your volunteer efforts would be more appreciated focusing on the relatively few topics within XYZ that do meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines."
I'm open to suggestions on how to get that point across with less harshness. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs) 🎄 14:38, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

2pou ( talk) 20:42, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Hi Zxcvbnm, thank you for your last review of Draft:World War II: TCG
We resubmitted our game a few days ago, adding more reliable sources. Our only concern though is regarding your last comment:
Fails WP:GNG; lacks a reception section or reliable sources, and only one review was found in English from a reliable game journalism source. Unless there are more significant sources in other languages, this doesn't seem like it will pass notability guidelines
In our case, we are a small videogame studio located in Spain and the sources we have been mentioned into or that have talked about us are quite reliable in our country to be honest. We have not much coverage on international press/sources but we do on Spain. Also, the Wikipedia:Notability page specifically says:
There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected.[3] Sources do not have to be available online or written in English
Hoping you reconsider your review, Respectfully, Cgascons ( talk) 16:18, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello. I add sources with coverage in Draft:ARIDA: Backland's Awakening. I would like to request a reconsideration. I intend to expand the content from the material I found. But I would feel more comfortable doing this after the article is approved. The sources are in Portuguese because the game is Brazilian, but I believe that there is no problem.

Hello Zxcvbnm! I'm conducting a feature for the video games newsletter similar to that of a survey. I'm going to ask users their opinions on a specific matter and highlight unique and common answers to determine consensus on a subject. Your input would be very valuable, alongside others, to help answer this question.
The question is: How do you determine what makes a video game character notable enough for their own page? Do you follow pre-existing guidelines or have your own opinions on the matter?

Hi, thanks for reviewing Draft:Mark Cheverton. When I saw your decline message on my talk page I was thinking "huh? Where did that come from?" I had completely forgotten that I had written it. I got the idea to write the draft after my son said he enjoyed reading one of Cheverton's books, and I couldn't find any information on Wikipedia about him.
I agree the majority of sources would be considered WP:PRIMARY, but sources 1 and 5 (the bestseller lists) aren't. I recall when I wrote the draft wondering whether being a New York Times bestselling author is a sufficient claim of notability, possibly meeting WP:NAUTHOR criterion #4. I wasn't sure, so I didn't move it to main space myself.
Had I moved it to main space, that assertion of notability would have been sufficient to avoid speedy deletion, but possibly not AFD.
I can't see much coverage beyond interviews and sites with user-generated content. Maybe I could write to Mr Cheverton and ask him to suggest some independent sources. Notable reviews of his books may help. ~ Anachronist ( talk) 17:02, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Hello, Zxcvbnm. I agree with all your nominations to AfD. My current concern is that, while we were discussing Blastoise, Giratina, Deoxys, Mudkip, etc., some users began creating (or recreating) articles on other minor Pokémon, such as Drifloon, Popplio, and Wooloo. The reception sections are written in the same style like the already merged Pokémon: giving an initial impression of deep coverage, but in reality they are just a collection of mentions from video game websites. I point this out not just to nominate these articles (and even Psyduck and others), but also to keep an eye on future creations; otherwise we may have the same problem we had years ago, with tens or even hundreds on individual articles like this is the Bulbapedia or some other Pokémon fan-site.

Re this:
Thanks for showing me how this can be off-putting in a bad way. It's intentionally meant to "discourage," but the intent is more along the lines of "it's not you, the editor, it really is the topic, your volunteer efforts would be more appreciated focusing on the relatively few topics within XYZ that do meet Wikipedia's notability guidelines."
I'm open to suggestions on how to get that point across with less harshness. davidwr/( talk)/( contribs) 🎄 14:38, 14 December 2020 (UTC)

2pou ( talk) 20:42, 12 January 2021 (UTC)Hi Zxcvbnm, thank you for your last review of Draft:World War II: TCG
We resubmitted our game a few days ago, adding more reliable sources. Our only concern though is regarding your last comment:
Fails WP:GNG; lacks a reception section or reliable sources, and only one review was found in English from a reliable game journalism source. Unless there are more significant sources in other languages, this doesn't seem like it will pass notability guidelines
In our case, we are a small videogame studio located in Spain and the sources we have been mentioned into or that have talked about us are quite reliable in our country to be honest. We have not much coverage on international press/sources but we do on Spain. Also, the Wikipedia:Notability page specifically says:
There is no fixed number of sources required since sources vary in quality and depth of coverage, but multiple sources are generally expected.[3] Sources do not have to be available online or written in English
Hoping you reconsider your review, Respectfully, Cgascons ( talk) 16:18, 28 December 2020 (UTC)

Hello. I add sources with coverage in Draft:ARIDA: Backland's Awakening. I would like to request a reconsideration. I intend to expand the content from the material I found. But I would feel more comfortable doing this after the article is approved. The sources are in Portuguese because the game is Brazilian, but I believe that there is no problem.

Hello Zxcvbnm! I'm conducting a feature for the video games newsletter similar to that of a survey. I'm going to ask users their opinions on a specific matter and highlight unique and common answers to determine consensus on a subject. Your input would be very valuable, alongside others, to help answer this question.
The question is: How do you determine what makes a video game character notable enough for their own page? Do you follow pre-existing guidelines or have your own opinions on the matter?

Hi there, I'm new in Wikipedia. I liked to improve my skills in writing articles. I had issues before with notability. I would appreciate some direct advises, (not guidelines), about this subject.

Hi, thanks for reviewing Draft:Mark Cheverton. When I saw your decline message on my talk page I was thinking "huh? Where did that come from?" I had completely forgotten that I had written it. I got the idea to write the draft after my son said he enjoyed reading one of Cheverton's books, and I couldn't find any information on Wikipedia about him.
I agree the majority of sources would be considered WP:PRIMARY, but sources 1 and 5 (the bestseller lists) aren't. I recall when I wrote the draft wondering whether being a New York Times bestselling author is a sufficient claim of notability, possibly meeting WP:NAUTHOR criterion #4. I wasn't sure, so I didn't move it to main space myself.
Had I moved it to main space, that assertion of notability would have been sufficient to avoid speedy deletion, but possibly not AFD.
I can't see much coverage beyond interviews and sites with user-generated content. Maybe I could write to Mr Cheverton and ask him to suggest some independent sources. Notable reviews of his books may help. ~ Anachronist ( talk) 17:02, 7 July 2021 (UTC)

Hey, can you hold off on future AfDs for a while? I want to go through the articles and like, try to update their sources and bring them up to modern quality standards, to see what can be salvaged and what cannot. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 10:54, 13 July 2021 (UTC)
Hello, Zxcvbnm. I agree with all your nominations to AfD. My current concern is that, while we were discussing Blastoise, Giratina, Deoxys, Mudkip, etc., some users began creating (or recreating) articles on other minor Pokémon, such as Drifloon, Popplio, and Wooloo. The reception sections are written in the same style like the already merged Pokémon: giving an initial impression of deep coverage, but in reality they are just a collection of mentions from video game websites. I point this out not just to nominate these articles (and even Psyduck and others), but also to keep an eye on future creations; otherwise we may have the same problem we had years ago, with tens or even hundreds on individual articles like this is the Bulbapedia or some other Pokémon fan-site.
