Your article

I looked at the article you were writing and although I'm not sure, I think you're doing well. And by the way if you want to link a page in Wikipedia do it like this - [[Pokémon Stadium 2]] which shows Pokémon Stadium 2 instead of long links like this - http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_Stadium_2 --Solar Police►Talk 18:29, 30 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

The thing is, Wikipedia has strict standards on content which for lack of a better word, prohibits things like lists of Gym Leaders or the levels each cup allows. Also, sources must be reliable, and user-generated content like GameFAQs or IGNfaqs, and fansites like Psypokes are not good sources. The first source, here, is reliable because it is written by staff of IGN, not its users. Thanks. _Blake ^{(Talk·Edits)} 04:29, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Pokemon Stadium 2 feedback

Hey this is in response to what you left on my user page back in March of this year. Sorry for not responded up until now; I only became aware of what you wrote until very recently.

The Pokemon Stadium 2 article looks good from what I can see. A good way to improve articles generally is to make them similar to existing articles that are deemed high quality which in Wikipedia's case is "Featured". Here is a list of such articles concerning video games.

However don't feel constrained by edits or bogged down by rules; any meaningful contribution is bound to help Wikipedia in some way. The Ignore All Rules policy helps explain this. For Pokemon Stadium 2 specifically I would suggest fleshing out some of the paragraphs and expand the reception section.

In fact I might help contribute to the article now that you mention it. Thanks already for your contributions Chiefmartinez (talk) 07:08, 30 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
