Fantasia Diamond moved to draftspace
editAn article you recently created, Fantasia Diamond, does not have enough sources and citations as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:
" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please follow the prompts on the Articles for Creation template atop the page. czar 01:24, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
- @Czar:, thanks for your feedback. Can you be more specific? I have used exactly the same format as other notable games of the time, such as Seabase_Delta and Subsunk, and it contains a reference to an online source and a magazine just like those articles. If you follow the references you will see virtually all the information that is available online. I can include additional references to physical magazines if required but these will not be easily verifiable nor do other articles have such requirements. The only thing I was unable to include was box art, because I am a new user and unable to upload images. Many thanks.
- I moved it back into the main space, you can continue working on it there. The other articles do not have such requirements because those requirements don't exist. - hahnchen 14:32, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
- When you have a chance you'll want to rewrite the article without the word "you", per the guidelines on video games. There are examples of other games from this era at WP:VG/GC. We write the reception sections as prose rather than a series of quotes. czar 01:42, 30 March 2016 (UTC)

Video games
editHey Simoncrowder—thanks for your recent contributions. I noticed your interest in Wikipedia's video game content and thought you might be interested in the video games WikiProject. We've done some great work (over 300 pieces of Featured content and over 1000 Good articles), but there is plenty more to do. Come say hello on our talk page, participate in our current events, or let me know if I can help with anything. Welcome to Wikipedia! I hope I'll see you around. czar 01:24, 29 March 2016 (UTC)
