Imscared Sources[edit]

Yo, I need some sources for Imscared to make the page better. I heard this is where I can get sources for the page. Can you help? -LeGoldenBoots

Here's a page about Imscared at Metacritic. This site is on the list at Wikipedia:Reliable_sources/Perennial_sources, in green. I wish user:Zxcvbnm would explain the reason for all those templates instead of just silently slapping them on the article and leaving the rest of us to figure it out. Which specific reference was not reliable supposedly? What's the matter with the citation style, which uses inline ref tags throughout, just like any other article? If "an editor has performed a search and claims that there are sufficient sources", what are those sources that the editor found?  Card Zero  (talk) 19:01, 11 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
If you read the RSPS summary, Metacritic is reliable for review aggregation and news. It's not reliable for user reviews. And the only thing on your link is 7 user reviews and a brief description. Nil Einne (talk) 13:03, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Oh, OK. Well I went through all the game-related or entertainment-related green links, searching the sites individually for Imscared, and the only other one returning a result was IGN, which is already a source.  Card Zero  (talk) 13:41, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Here's a couple of paragraphs about Imscared from a site called "Happy Mag", which has gone one better than IGN and made a list of the 13 best indie horror games.  Card Zero  (talk) 13:56, 12 May 2022 (UTC)[reply]
