Help?

Can anyone help me make this article not a stub? Should I add a screenshot? Jrdaigle1000 16:32, 1 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Notability

This article is notable, who put that it isn't? Snails has won awards.Awards Jrdaigle1000 16:04, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I suggested that it may not be notable. At the time of that flag, there was no claim made to notability (no mention of the award). With the reference to that award included in the article, preferably from the awarder but that's not hugely important IMHO, I would be inclined to remove the notability question.

If I might ask, are you a fan of the game, or a developer/otherwise associated? SamBC 16:41, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm a fan of the game. Jrdaigle1000 16:59, 2 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Now that there is a reference to the award, can you remove the notability tag?Jrdaigle1000 20:53, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Worms

This game is a Worms clone. Perhaps it should be changed from "There have been observations that..." to "This game is a clone of the Worms series." "There have been observations that..." sounds a bit like weasel words. Jrdaigle1000 16:35, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I used wording similar to that in the reviews... is there a reference from the publisher saying it that outright? SamBC 17:37, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I read something saying it isn't a Worms clone, but there is something on Wikipedia that says it is.http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Worms_%28series%29#Clones Jrdaigle1000 20:48, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, the text didn't say it was a clone, only the section title; I've changed the section title to be more appropriate (and fixed the link to here). SamBC 22:07, 3 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Snails1.gif

Image:Snails1.gif is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
