Reality Ends Here
editFullerton is involved with this ARG "Reality Ends Here" as much as she is involved with the game "Walden," if one stays, they both should, or her article is not really relevant at all and should be removed from wiki. "Reality" won awards, was written up on many press junkets and is as relevant in every way as "Walden:"
Here is Tracy's own write up of the project: https://www.gameinnovationlab.com/reality
Either cover the game or remove her page. 130.44.138.238 (talk) 17:36, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
- It seems relevant and weighty that Tracy is trying to create this experience for students: "As students enter orientation they begin to see clues and strange symbols that prompt them to look under the surface of the school. A sense develops that there is a secret society of media makers — the Reality Committee — watching their every move."
- That kind of seems like something people who are looking at this article would want to know. Unless this is a PR piece for Fullerton, at which point the article isn't puffing her MAJESTY up enough, right? 130.44.138.238 (talk) 18:01, 5 September 2023 (UTC)
- It looks like a brief description of this game was temporarily on the article, but didn't cite any secondary material about it. Walden is the only super famous game by Fullerton that I am aware of, so it seems to need its own section (e.g., Walden is the only one that has its own Wiki article), but a one-liner could go into the overall list of all her games if there is a secondary source to support mentioning it. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 01:21, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
- Ok, with a bit more research, I see why it seemed worth mentioning Reality Ends Here: I put it in with the other student games she is named as a mentor/contributor for and linked its wiki article. I'm sort of side-eyeing the Reality Ends Here article since the sourcing is not very good-- the only link I could actually get to work was this one, and it's definitely not in-depth coverage-- but I don't have strong feelings about it either way. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 02:05, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
- Part of the reason Reality isn't mentioned in more sources is that USC tries to keep it hush hush, which is also why I think it would be good to write about it. 130.44.138.238 (talk) 09:36, 21 September 2023 (UTC)

GAME_JAM
editFullerton was also likely involved in the GAME_JAM controversy.

Or at the very least she was in charge of the division that instigated that event. Fullerton is not a universally loved figure and there are a number of noteworthy controversies that should be referenced in this article. Or the article itself should be removed. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.44.138.238 (talk) 14:52, 8 September 2023 (UTC)
- Fullerton is not mentioned in either of those articles so I can't figure out what you think we can say about her with them. ~ L 🌸 (talk) 02:06, 17 September 2023 (UTC)
Blanking critical opinions?
editIt seems whenever someone voices a critical opinion of Fullerton it gets blanked. Why is this? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 130.44.138.238 (talk) 10:09, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
- Refer to WP:BLP. Wikipedia is not a forum for editors' opinions of the subject, neither in the article nor even in any talk pages. —C.Fred (talk) 10:12, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
- I think you need a semicolon in that one, but as long as we are keeping emotion out of it I'll be sound as a pound. 130.44.138.238 (talk) 10:22, 10 October 2023 (UTC)
