Portals such as Ijji and Miniclip are legitimate sources for games that wouldn't get out of hand. I believe these games should be allowed as part of our scope, but represent the most minimal of requirements met for inclusion. Games such as those on addictinggames.com and newgrounds.com, however, should not be allowed unless there is some considerable hype or notability. --[[User:Notmyhandle|Notmyhandle]] ([[User talk:Notmyhandle|talk]] <small>•</small> [[Special:Contributions/Notmyhandle|contribs]]) 16:34, 25 July 2007 (CDT) | Portals such as Ijji and Miniclip are legitimate sources for games that wouldn't get out of hand.

:Yes, but most of those games are so simple that they do not require guides. For the ones that do, it will have to be determined that they fit into one or more other categories (like notability and whatnot). Games that seem to have no English media mention whatsoever (I am not counting mentions in languages other than English) do not belong here on StrategyWiki. We could also use a policy concerning removing guides outside of our scope. What I am doing right now is just deletion and a message on the creator's talk page for the first two times, then a protected redirect to the Scope page for the third time. --{{User:Ryan Schmidt/sig}} 16:44, 25 July 2007 (CDT) | :Yes, but most of those games are so simple that they do not require guides.

:I have to disagree with your assessment of Newgrounds games being out of our scope. If a Flash game is large enough to have a guide, it shouldn't matter how notable it is as long as that guide is in-depth. Flash games have notoriously minimal press coverage even if they are so complex that a guide would be necessary to expect someone to complete it. For example, Bowmaster Prelude is a very complex game, and once Bowmaster 2 comes out, I can only assume that it will have too much depth for it not to be included in our scope. --[[User:Tathar|Tathar]] [[Image:Tathar.jpg|32px]] ([[User talk:Tathar|talk]]|[[Special:Contributions/Tathar|contribs]]) 18:58, 21 November 2007 (CST) | |||
