Orphaned references in John Madden Football '93

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of John Madden Football '93's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

Reference named "gamepro":

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT⚡ 19:57, 24 November 2012 (UTC)

Championship Edition

What about mentioning Championship Edition in the article? Allgame has some stuff on it: http://www.allgame.com/game.php?id=12647 --Mika1h (talk) 15:41, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

• That works. I didn't know there was any material on it. Thanks. JimmyBlackwing (talk) 16:16, 25 November 2012 (UTC)

Many thanks for the review. I could have sworn there was a bot to do ref ordering, but I couldn't remember its name. I just went ahead and did it manually. JimmyBlackwing (talk) 19:24, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Passed! --Teancum (talk) 13:53, 8 December 2012 (UTC)

But, Wait...

Wasn't Looking Glass Studios always Looking Glass Studios?--2601:194:480:C790:506D:E9B9:FBF0:1676 (talk) 20:35, 29 September 2019 (UTC)

They were Blue Sky Productions until they merged with Lerner Research (developer of Car and Driver) to form Looking Glass Technologies. They then changed the name to Looking Glass Studios sometime around 1997. --Sek-2 (talk) 00:15, 30 September 2019 (UTC)
