Super Mario Maker levels

[edit]

Whilst I don't know where to get any sources (as I don't want my contributions removed due to the scary warning at the top of the talk page for unsourced content) I think that his other well-known works from his difficult Mario Maker levels (under the name RubberRoss) could be included. The levels were made known by the Game Grumps initially and launched further by more well-known YouTube gamers such as Markiplier and MatPat (in various GTLive streams). 2A02:C7D:722:8D00:E87D:F7FD:1090:D5D6 (talk) 20:21, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Primary sources

[edit]

I have no idea how on Earth this article has continued to exist while being almost fully dependent on primary sources. EthanRossie2000 removed the template, but I reinstated it. If anyone can find and cite at least twenty secondary sources that are almost fully dependent on O'Donovan, I will be more than happy to re-remove the template. Much thanks.

@L33tm4n: This is exactly the same concern I had with Arin's article as well; so many of the sources in the article come from either his own words or other primary sources. EthanRossie2000 also reverted my edit for whatever reason, even though several of the article's sources already have a [non-primary source needed] tag on it. Is this fanboyism or some Game Grumps double standard? Most Wikipedia editors would flip if a BLP article of a YouTuber contained even a couple of PS/YouTube videos, but because it's the Game Grumps, it's perfectly acceptable? ...Sure. (◔_◔)
Anyway, I found a CartoonBrew source about Ross here. Ironically, it was linked as a source in Arin's page despite Arin not being mentioned once in the article (besides in the comments). Also, 20 secondary sources is a bit overboard; the general consensus among Wikipedia editors is usually 3-5 sources per WP:THREE. Of course, WP:BASIC says "If the depth of coverage in any given source is not substantial, then multiple independent sources may be combined to demonstrate notability."

Arin Hanson IMDB Page

[edit]

If Gamer Tonight was aired on broadcast television, which I remember watching, why isn't the first Good Game on the IMDB page of second Good Game protagonist Arin Hanson? I trust Wikipedia referencing a lot more than IMDB but I don't know how to edit that. gg --Einsidler (talk) 18:43, 2 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

While I'm here, I would also like to point out who apparently owned the Wacom Cintiq that was a big help with 'HAZBIN HOTEL - "INSIDE OF EVERY DEMON IS A RAINBOW" (ORIGINAL SONG) NOT FOR KIDS' on YouTube (see description) --Einsidler (talk) 18:53, 2 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
