Adding gaming distros in the main article

What are your thoughts on including a section for Linux gaming distros like mGame, SteamOS, Ubuntu GamePack, Lakka etc? They're a big part of what Linux gaming is and a list would be quite helpful. Here's an example list: https://thishosting.rocks/best-linux-distros-for-gaming/

I am agree, like the article Light-weight Linux distribution. Editor-1 (talk) 06:35, 13 August 2018 (UTC)[reply]

there's a newer article that includes newer distros like Drauger OS - they should all be added to the main wiki page. https://linuxstans.com/best-linux-distro-gaming/ --Dstinsky (talk) 07:46, 19 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Self-published and group blog citations?

I've tagged some obvious self-published citations, and saw GamingonLinux.com is cited several times, but looks like a group blog. They call people editors, but it seems used as a synonym for author. I'll be tagging the article. -- Yae4 (talk) 21:45, 15 May 2023 (UTC)[reply]
