Barbie Detective 2: The Vacation Mystery question

Hi! I've created Barbie Detective 2: The Vacation Mystery but i'm unsure whether to rename the page. (sources call the game differently) What do you think? Timur9008 (talk) 07:15, 5 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

In this case, I'd go with Detective Barbie as that's consistent with the packaging on the box. VRXCES (talk) 08:28, 5 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Draft:Sledding Game

Just checking you'd noticed the sources I added on the talk page. I wasn't sure if it was enough to establish notability since I'm not too familiar with video game-related topics and they do overlap a bit, so I thought I'd leave it for another reviewer. I probably should've left a comment with AFCH, but oh well \: lp0 on fire () 11:10, 16 May 2026 (UTC)Reply

Question regarding Draft:Quad Desert Fury

Hi, thank you for the advice and time you dedicated to me! Regarding the reviews, before adding them I made sure they were already used as sources on other Wikipedia pages. Take the case of "Allgame": for smaller titles, this site had the practice of publishing a textless review consisting only of a score after testing the game. If you notice, in the top left it says "Allgame Rating" with 2.5 out of 5 stars. While this practice can be debatable—and I completely understand your point—it but is already accepted on many other Wikipedia pages, and the same goes for EAGB Advance and Portable Review. Also looking at the Wayback Machine, both of these sites, along with Nintendo Power, were officially listed on the game's GameRankings page (https://web.archive.org/web/20130514083308/http://www.gamerankings.com/gba/918720-quad-desert-fury/index.html) As for "Nintendo Power", the review is brief because it was an editorial policy of the magazine to dedicate only a few lines to budget titles. This was an editorial choice, but in my eyes, it doesn't diminish its value, both because of Nintendo Power's strict review approval guidelines and because it is consistent with the price range the game belonged to. Unfortunately, I cannot search through European sources to add reviews, because in Europe the game was released as part of a bundle, and the scores refer to the bundle as a whole rather than the individual game. No other NA or UK sources exist; before creating this page, I searched through archives for weeks. The main purpose of creating this draft is the preservation of the game's memory, which otherwise risks being lost. That being said, I am completely open to removing the Allgame review from the draft for the sake of encyclopedic reliability, given that it lacks an actual body of text and consists only of a score and was not even included on GameRankings. ~2026-33445-83 (talk) 08:37, 7 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hey, thanks for the thoughtful reply and appreciate you've worked hard on this. On the actual assessment of the article, I've commented separately. Some thoughts on your thinking:
  • Several unreliable sites listed by WP:VG/S are captured by aggregators; that an aggregator listed it doesn't really have a bearing on the source's reliability.
  • The Nintendo Power point is completely fair, but it doesn't transform fairly thin coverage about the game into the significant coverage required for the game.
  • Listing the Allgame score is totally fine, but it doesn't contribute to significant coverage if it's brief, descriptive, and not a review.
VRXCES (talk) 07:52, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
I've checked Newspapers.com and Gale Research for possible reviews or other coverage but found nothing. Timur9008 (talk) 08:48, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
Hi. I created the page with another temporary account but now I've lost it. However, there are no other reviews as Timur says. On the other hand, I had added an interview with David Crane, co-founder of Skyworks, and the official sales data reported by Nintendo. Unfortunately, I can't do more than that :(
thanks VRXCES for your time and thank Timur for your check.

Daggerfall GA

Hi! :) Congrats on getting Battlespire to GA :D Was wondering if you can get Daggerfall GA as well? (The game turns 30 this year)

I can help with finding more sources. Timur9008 (talk) 02:54, 19 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Good suggestion! Happy to take it up. I'd welcome any suggested sources on the talk page. This one may take a little more time and effort than Battlespire; it's obvious entire sections need a rewrite as the gameplay and plot sections are unsourced, and the review section is essentially one review comment after another.

Draft:Mope.io review

Hi VRXCES, thanks for the feedback! I get your points and just updated the draft to fix everything:

Gameplay info: I removed all the specific "game guide" details and things based on personal experience (like exact tiers, arena rules, and rare animals). The gameplay section is now short and covers only the basic survival mechanics.

Notability & Media Coverage (WP:GNG): To address the need for independent third-party coverage, I added a new "Reception" section. This includes a high-quality secondary source from Screen Rant, which featured Mope.io in its curated list of top titles and analyzed its food chain mechanics.

Commercial History & Verification: The article now centers on the game's market success, backed by high-quality industry coverage from GamesIndustry.biz regarding the seven-figure acquisition. I also added the official Google Play store link as a reliable primary source to verify the current 2024 publishing rights held by VexxusArts.

Could you please take another look at this cleaner, well-sourced version when you have some time?

Thanks! Waton432126 (talk) 22:57, 1 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hi mate, WP:VG/S suggests Screen Rant is not a strong source and WP:VALNET publications are subject to very divisive views as here. At any rate, the listicle only dedicates a few sentences. The 'reception' section has one citation which really doesn't support the idea it's got "cultural recognition within the browser game market". VRXCES (talk) 07:42, 4 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Horses?

While strolling across some random indie game articles, I noticed you had nominated Horses for GA some time ago, but never came back to finish it when you had to take a wikibreak. As someöne who loves watching YouTube videö essays, I had happened to watch this one recently, and my interest was certainly peaked. This is to say that I think it would be great if you returned to work on Horses again; I would love to learn more about it by reviewing the article :) toby (t)(rw) 01:12, 14 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
