Tip of the Month:

  • Researching historical women writers who used pseudonyms requires careful investigation across multiple sources, as many women adopted pen names to avoid gender bias and judgment (e.g., being labeled a bluestocking) and, ultimately, to get published.

Sad news

[edit]

Hello, I'm sorry to inform you that MichaelQSchmidt, a prolific Wikipedian, has passed away. You appeared in his ten most-edited talk pages (other than his own), so I thought I'd let you know. Condolences can go to his talk page, where there's a link with more details. Graham87 (talk) 17:46, 6 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Oh wow - thank you for letting me know! ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 17:35, 15 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Your submission at Articles for creation: Rusty Lake (series) (September 23)

[edit]
Your recent article submission to Articles for Creation has been reviewed. Unfortunately, it has not been accepted at this time. The reason left by Zxcvbnm was:
This draft's references do not show that the subject qualifies for a Wikipedia article. In summary, the draft needs multiple published sources that are:
Make sure you add references that meet these criteria before resubmitting. Learn about mistakes to avoid when addressing this issue. If no additional references exist, the subject is not suitable for Wikipedia.
 The comment the reviewer left was:
Right now it fails WP:GNG. However, this article should be SIGCOV that has not yet been incorporated into the reception. With that, it should likely squeak by notability.
Please check the submission for any additional comments left by the reviewer. You are encouraged to edit the submission to address the issues raised and resubmit after they have been resolved.

  • @Zxcvbnm: With reception, do you mean that you want the reception to be in its own section? So far I've been including it in the sub-section for each individual game. I can move that all down into a general section, if that's what you are looking for. I just need to know what you have in mind.

    Game by game reception is fine, but some element of full series reception is also needed, and there are sources that say it, but I suggested another source that contains it. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ () 18:27, 23 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
    Well... many of the reviews do tend to look at the series as a whole. From what I've seen of the series from working on the article, it's one of those cases where the individual games can be played as standalone entries but don't make as much sense story-wise unless you play them all. (My knowledge is limited generally to watching a video of Hotel getting played.) ReaderofthePack(formerly Tokyogirl79) (。◕‿◕。) 18:39, 23 September 2025 (UTC)[reply]
