From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wikipedia is full of information such as this one. I have seen this countless times. Wikipedia does not allow videos to be cited from YouTube or there would a be link to the award it won on channels there. Wikipedia does not allow links to places like the Google Play Store, Steam or iTunes. These sites have discussion on the games. The only thing Wikipedia allows is for citations to teenagers' websites with the wrong information. Every time I try to correct the information someone changes it back to the wrong info. I am willing to expand upon the information and citations on the page but need guidance. What is needed exactly by Wikipedia? This is my first page posting so I am not sure of what the parameters are. Please do not send me to yet another link to read. I have read a lot of that. In this age a lot of information is on videos, forems and others areas that Wikipedia does not allow. Tell me what is needed and I will try to accommodate. I would like to contribute.

You've not been reading the right links, then. Our inclusion criteria for companies. Why Youtube, forums, and teenagers' websites with the wrong information are disallowed. And nobody's going to wade through your "sources" when more than half are about your personal poker statistics. —Cryptic 01:57, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Having a personal attack like that is not helpful. As this is my first page let me know what it needs to pass your test. First it was not enough sources as they were to facebook and Wikipedia. Now you don't like poker references. I don't understand as Wikipedia is full of this kind of stuff. How many link do you need other than the website to pass your test? From the link you supplied I think it passes but you are saying otherwise. Help a guy out here and give a number of what you want. Thanks. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wheretheidivides (talkcontribs) 02:15, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

I just looked up the first poker player on the list and it has links to 2 poker sources. Surely if Wikipedia is full of these, then how can this page be denied? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tom_Abdo Besides, that is just 1 part. There are others like the patents, awards and such. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wheretheidivides (talkcontribs) 02:19, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]


Slow down you all. Not one of the editors than say delete the page have said what is needed to fix it. Please explain what to do. There are plenty of companies that are on Wikipedia so I am confused. What exactly needs to be done to reference the games from this company like the other Wikipedia pages? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Wheretheidivides (talkcontribs) 07:04, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

We are saying that the article subject fails to meet the general notability guidelines. What you can do is provide sources that prove the subject's notability. Aspening (talk) 13:40, 17 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]
