Re: Persona Revelations

[edit]

"Listing a price in conjunction with critical analysis of the game or content from secondary sources, such as describing the general prices for games, or that the very low or very high cost of a game was a factor in the critical reception of the work, can be included."

Well to be honest, I don't your edit meets this requirement. My interpretation of the policy is:

The price can be included if it had any bearing on the game's reception at the time of its release.

For instance, if the price of the game was affordable/exorbitant, that might have affected its sales. This is hard to prove, so most articles just stick to the sales figures.

We're talking the bidding prices on sites like ebay, which makes including it even more sketchy. If you can find a precedent for something similar on another game article (preferably B-class or higher), I'll reconsider it. Johnnyfog 15:33, 9 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, good work.
The article you picked is indeed a B article. If you want to check, just click on the discussion tab at the top. But I still have some reservations. Ogre Battle had extremely limited distribution. Practically no one has played it without an emulator. That's a worthy object of note, since it affected its reception.
However, I doubt any editor would tolerate posting Persona's ebay bidding price. Once the game is out of store circulation, as far as wikipedia is concerned, its disappeared. If you want to bolster the argument that it has become a sleeper hit, what you need to do is link to magazines or websites which mention it. Usually all you need is one link.

Ok, you can try that. You can link to the site, but please don't mention ebay in the article. A good place to stick the reference would be in the Reception section, maybe at the tail end of "although Persona was something of a sleeper hit"... Johnnyfog 22:38, 11 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Re: NWC Large Images

[edit]

Nice, thanks! I uploaded them in Commons, you can check them at File:1990 Nintendo World Championships Gray.jpg and File:1990 Nintendo World Championships Gold.jpg. You can edit the image descriptions at Commons directly if you want to modify some information from there too. We don't have that many opportunities for having free pictures for collectible items like those, so we thank you! -- ReyBrujo (talk) 18:20, 10 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

Please do not add inappropriate external links to Wikipedia, as you did to List of Konami code websites‎. Wikipedia is not a collection of links, nor should it be used for advertising or promotion. Inappropriate links include (but are not limited to) links to personal web sites, links to web sites with which you are affiliated, and links that attract visitors to a web site or promote a product. See the external links guideline and spam guideline for further explanations. Because Wikipedia uses the nofollow attribute value, its external links are disregarded by most search engines. If you feel the link should be added to the article, please discuss it on the article's talk page rather than re-adding it. Thank you. -- Rrburke (talk) 17:54, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Your account has been blocked indefinitely from editing Wikipedia because it appears to be mainly intended or used for publicity and/or promotional purposes. Please read the following carefully.

Why can't I edit Wikipedia?

Your account's edits and/or username indicate that it is being used on behalf of a company, group, or organization for purposes of promotion and/or publicity. The edits may have violated one or more of our rules on spamming, which include: adding inappropriate external links, posting advertisements, and using Wikipedia for promotion. Wikipedia has many articles on companies, groups, and organizations, but it is considered inappropriate for such groups to use Wikipedia to write about themselves. In addition, usernames like yours are disallowed under our username policy.

Am I allowed to make these edits if I change my username?

Probably not. See Wikipedia:FAQ/Organization for a helpful list of frequently asked questions by people in your position. Also, review the conflict of interest guidance to see the kinds of limitations you would have to obey if you did want to continue editing about your company, group, or organization. If this does not fit in with your goals, then you will not be allowed to edit again. Consider using one of the many websites that allow this instead.

What can I do now?

You are still welcome to write about something other than your company or organization. If you do intend to make useful contributions on some other topic, you must convince a Wikipedia administrator that you mean it. To that end, please do the following:

  • Add the text {{unblock-spamun|Your proposed new username|Your reason here}} below this message box.
  • Replace the text "Your proposed new username" with a new username you are willing to use. See Special:Listusers to search for available usernames. Your new username will need to meet our username policy.
  • Replace the text "Your reason here" with your reason to be unblocked. In this reason, you must:
  • Convince us that you understand the reason for your block and that you will not repeat the edits for which you were blocked.
  • Describe in general terms the contributions that you intend to make if you are unblocked.
If you believe this block was made in error, please see how to appeal a block.

Unblock request accepted

[edit]

I find your request reasonable. I went trough your older edits and i didn't see any activity that is purely promotional in nature, other then the recent edit you are blocked for. Your request reflects that you understand the reason why you are blocked, you indicated you won't do it again and pointed out some area's where i think you can certainly help. Good luck doing so! And remember, keep the COI policy in mind :). Excirial (Contact me,Contribs) 15:43, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
