Your information
[edit]I'm sorry for what happened with the Acquire information, Lloyd. The fact is, Wikipedia is designed from the ground up to only use information taken from previously-published sources which have undergone some kind of editorial scrutiny beforehand. Thus, your information derived from years of collecting, etc. is what we call original research and synthesis and cannot be used by us here. Now if the same information were to be submitted to some game history magazine for consideration, and published by them after editorial scrutiny, then we could use the contents, properly footnoted to your article in that magazine, with a clear conscience. --Orange Mike | Talk 04:38, 28 May 2011 (UTC)
