== What the site needs ==
What SW genuinely needs is more gaming guide content.  That is the primary purpose for which users visit the site: to learn how to complete video games.  While we host images in order to dress up the guides, we're not really a database for box covers or anything like that.  As you can see, we barely display box images any bigger than 300 pixels wide.  They're there to dress up the guide and break up the monotony of text, but the text is the real content that the site values.  Most images should enhance guides (a picture is worth 1000 words, etc.) so maps are great, screenshots indicating where secrets can be found, pictures of boss battles, etc.  That's what SW really needs because that's why we exist and what we are trying to offer people.  So please, pick your favorite game.  If it doesn't have a guide on this site, please start one.  If it does, go through it and find any mistakes or omissions and fix them.  That's the best help the site could ask for from anyone right now.  There are literally thousands of games that we don't have guides for.  Please help fill in our gaps.  '''[[User:Procyon|<span style="color:red">Pro</span>]][[User talk:Procyon|<span style="color:grey">cyon</span>]]''' 23:03, 15 February 2024 (UTC)
