Draft of Space_Invaders_(1999)

I appreciate the feedback on https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Draft:Space_Invaders_(1999), but can you tell me which sources you didn't consider reliable? Yes, there's a lot of IGN content, but also Wired. Apart from IGN, there aren't many sites that carried gaming news in that area that are still easily accessible today.

If you give me a hint of what you're looking for, I can try to find additional references... print magazines? Retrospective books? To be honest, though, I'm not sure what purpose that serves; surely there's no doubt that this game existed, was materially different from the 1978 original, and was generally as described in the cited sources?

:I found these sources you can use https://web.archive.org/web/20001017145335/http://www.gamesdomain.com/gdreview/zones/reviews/pc/nov99/invaders.html ↗, https://web.archive.org/web/20021201035702/http://www.cdmag.com/articles/013/172/activision_gets_space_invaders.html ↗, https://web.archive.org/web/20030530090901/http://www.cdmag.com/articles/023/072/si.html ↗, https://www.newspapers.com/article/the-tampa-tribune/196178879/ ↗, https://web.archive.org/web/20141114135719/http://www.allgame.com/game.php?id=19936&tab=review ↗ Timur9008 (talk) 23:55, 23 April 2026 (UTC)
::Thanks, as Timur said above you should use some or all of those sources. As for what is reliable or not, if it's not listed in WP:VG/S ↗ it's likely unreliable (if it's not some magazine publication), the page also has a list of unreliable or situational sources. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 23:58, 23 April 2026 (UTC)
:::Thanks to both of you for the suggestions, and to a few others who made other improvements to the page. It's now got a wider selection of "reliable" (sometimes defunct) sources per WP:VG/RS (EGM, OPM, AllGame, and GameSpot) per WP:VG/RS, plus the Tampa Tribune article, so I resubmitted. Please LMK if you'd like to see anything else. AlcibiadesDX (talk) 14:59, 24 May 2026 (UTC)
::::Computer Games Magazine is reliable. You can use it too :) Timur9008 (talk) 17:17, 25 May 2026 (UTC)

Yoko Taro characters

After Emil (Nier) ↗ became GA, I'm planning to nominate Caim (Drakengard) ↗ to GA following its copyedit. However, while I have considered nominating 9S, I have been wondering if A2 from Automata might have potential. Sadly, I couldn't find sigcov for A2 probably as a result of that simple name or the fact that she is a walking spoiler which some journalists tend to avoid specifically because that would mean telling casual readers that she kills 2B. Any suggestion? Feel free to edit Caim's article. I tried splitting some sections since it was getting too big. Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 13:57, 14 June 2026 (UTC)

:Well, I think you are right. It is highly unlikely A2 would be standalone notable. The best thing to do if you want to further improve coverage on Wikipedia is to improve Characters of the Drakengard series ↗, perhaps to Featured List status, as it can still use work. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:19, 14 June 2026 (UTC)
