Some notes about video game release dates

Hi, I've noticed some of your edits, and there are two things I'd like to point out:

We don't list emulated releases in infoboxes (such as PS1 games on PSN, or NES games on Virtual Console, etc).
If there are a lot of release dates, we should indeed use a collapsible list.

This is in accordance with the instructions on the infobox template page. If you disagree, please start a thread at WikiProject Video games and explain why.--IDV^talk 19:46, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I see it all the time. and they are ports and a part of all its history. I don't like collapsible list. theres no law in saying it needs to be that way.

It is because people have not noticed them and removed them yet. Emulated releases are not ports, and collapsible lists are to prevent extremely long infoboxes. This is based on discussion and consensus - if you want to go against it, you need to discuss it and get support for it first.--IDV^talk 20:19, 3 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

with all due respect... don't be .... you know. Im trying to help and yes I am new. I triple check stuff. I cant believe ppl would go around biting people's heads off on the smallest thing. kinda like when you leave the garbage trash outide for 3 days and they take a pic of it and warn it. I will try and leave a comment on what your talking about. I feel like in that little box on the right side. should show everything. its not a long list to begin with. I disagree and say that they are ports. they are just digital versions of the game. no different.

No one here is being a dick. User IDV is correct. Emulated releases do not belong in the infoboxes, they are not dedicated ports. Just because some articles have them does not mean they are supposed to be there, they just have not been removed yet. This is not some arbitrary decision, but rather guidelines set within Wikipedia for video game articles reached by consensus among other editors. I understand you are trying to help, but by making these edits you are doing the exact opposite. Please see the Project Video Games page for more information on how you can help constructively. If you continue to add emulated releases to infoboxes, that constitutes disruptive editing which can get you blocked from editing for a period of time. TarkusAB 22:28, 7 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

162.89, your edits are the subject of discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Video games#Collapsible lists. Editing against consensus is considered disruptive. You will be blocked if you continue, but we all would rather that you (1) participate in the discussion if you wish to change consensus, and/or (2) desist. czar 15:55, 9 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

June 2016

Please don't change the format of dates, as you did to Theme Park World. As a general rule, if an article has evolved using predominantly one format, the dates should be left in the format they were originally written in, unless there are reasons for changing it based on strong national ties to the topic. Please also note that Wikipedia does not use ordinal suffixes (e.g., st, nd, th), articles, or leading zeros on dates.

For more information about how dates should be written on Wikipedia, please see this page.

If you have any questions about this, ask me on my talk page, or place {{helpme}} on your talk page and someone will show up shortly to answer your questions. Enjoy your time on Wikipedia. Thank you. Adam9007 (talk) 00:17, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. It might not have been your intention, but your recent edit removed maintenance templates from Theme Park World. When removing maintenance templates, please be sure to either resolve the problem that the template refers to, or give a valid reason for the removal in the edit summary. If this was a mistake, don't worry, as your removal of this template has been reverted.

If this is a shared IP address, and you did not make the edits, consider creating an account for yourself so you can avoid further irrelevant notices.

Please refrain from making unconstructive edits to Wikipedia, as you did at Theme Park World. Your edits appear to be disruptive and have been or will be undone.

If you are engaged in an article content dispute with another editor, please discuss the matter with the editor at their talk page, or the article's talk page, and seek consensus with them. Alternatively you can read Wikipedia's dispute resolution page, and ask for independent help at one of the relevant notice boards.
If you are engaged in any other form of dispute that is not covered on the dispute resolution page, please seek assistance at Wikipedia's Administrators' noticeboard/Incidents.

Please ensure you are familiar with Wikipedia's policies and guidelines, and please do not continue to make edits that appear disruptive. Continual disruptive editing may result in loss of editing privileges. Thank you. Adam9007 (talk) 00:23, 15 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Reference errors on 26 June

June 2016

Welcome to Wikipedia, and thank you for your contributions. Although everyone is welcome to contribute constructively to the encyclopedia, please note that there is a Manual of Style that should be followed to maintain a consistent, encyclopedic appearance. Deviating from this style, as you did in Jumping Flash!, disturbs uniformity among articles and may cause readability or accessibility problems. Please take a look at the welcome page to learn more about contributing to this encyclopedia. Thank you. TJH2018 talk 17:11, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I think they changes I made are reasonable and justified. so please can we change it. also. its the wrong north America date. look on giant bomb and moby games and how long to beat to see that it was released on October 10. 1995.

If this is a shared IP address and you are an uninvolved editor with a registered account, you may continue to edit by logging in.

162.89, you've been asked and now blocked several times for your date changes, which either introduce errors or go against the {{infobox video game}} style guidelines. I would recommend reviewing your edits to see what other editors have noted as incorrect. Also keep in mind that wikis such as IGN's, MobyGames, Giant Bomb, and so on, are not reliable sources for release dates. Instead I'd recommend the video game reliable sources custom Google search. I hope you'll be willing to edit constructively in the future. czar 19:01, 29 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Date formats

Why do you keep adding zeros in front of single digit dates like [1], [2], [3], [4]? --The1337gamer (talk) 18:31, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Also why do you keep capitalising "box art" in the infobox image captions? They are not proper nouns. --The1337gamer (talk) 18:33, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

I believe it is. Just look up box art. I feel it hurt no one and everyone can understand. im sure the bosses will.

July 2016

Anonymous users from this IP address have been blocked from editing for a period of 1 month for persistent disruptive editing. If you think there are good reasons why you should be unblocked, you may appeal this block by first reading the guide to appealing blocks, then adding the following text to the bottom of your talk page: {{unblock|reason=Your reason here ~~~~}}. czar 18:44, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

If this is a shared IP address and you are an uninvolved editor with a registered account, you may continue to edit by logging in.

You've been kindly asked to desist multiple times. Your edits continue to create work for others to clean up. There are guidelines for editing the {{infobox video game}} appropriately. Please edit constructively by following those guidelines—there is already plenty of cleanup work to do on these infoboxes. If you think the infobox style should be different, you'll need to find consensus with other editors first. If you act of your own accord and against existing consensus, we consider that disruptive and you'll just be blocked again. czar 18:47, 17 July 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Your edits

Yet again, stop capitalising "cover art" in image captions. They are not proper nouns. Also there is no need to add platforms to the released field in the infobox when the game was only released on a single platform. --The1337gamer (talk) 19:15, 2 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]

162.89, if you continue to edit as you did before your previous block, you will be blocked again. Please edit constructively. czar 17:19, 3 September 2016 (UTC)[reply]
