Usage of non-breaking spaces in console names

Hello, per MOS:NBSP, non-breaking spaces should be added "where breaking across lines might be confusing or awkward", specifically:

Boeing{{nbsp}}747

To me, this clearly means that consoles such as "PlayStation 2", "Nintendo Switch 2", and "Xbox 360" should also have non-breaking spaces to keep the name and number together.

My posting here was suggested by @Sergecross73.

Thanks for any and all input! -- Brad (talk) 02:52, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

Yes, my objection was that, in all the articles I maintain, we don't use "[[Nintendo Switch 2|Nintendo Switch {{nbsp}}2]]" and "Switch{{nbsp}}2" across entire articles. Same for any of the platform listed above. Sergecross73 msg me 03:03, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

This feels like the type of thing that should be done as an article advances through the GA/FA process or when it is mostly complete, as that is an easy search/replace task (eg something AWB can do , or copy/paste to a text editor and back). I wouldn't push it at an early stage on an article unless the editor is devoted to doing that. Masem (t) 04:13, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

To clarify, I added non-breaking spaces to an article and my edit was reverted. -- Brad (talk) 05:29, 11 September 2026 (UTC)

I don't think people here disagree with it, it seems to be something to take up with the user who did it and inform them of why you did it. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 13:40, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

I suggested a wider discussion here. I figured something was missing here. I don't see it used like this in any of the articles I write or maintain. For example, Super Mario 64. It's an WP:FA. "Nbsp" is used throughout the article, but not once is it used for names like "Nintendo 64" or "Super Mario 64". Sergecross73 msg me 13:49, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

I don't really see the harm in letting people add it to pages, it's literally part of the Manual of Style, but it seems like something super obscure and there isn't even an option to add it in Visual Editor as far as I know. The fact that Visual Editor may even end up breaking instances that already exist could be something of a problem. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 14:48, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

I've not seen much of {nbsp} in articles, but i have seen some use of {nowrap}, which serves the same purpose. So I can attest to it being added, but sparingly 13akoors (talk) 15:41, 12 September 2026 (UTC)

@Sergecross73 was the user who reverted my comments. I linked to MOS:NBSP and they suggested I post here. -- Brad (talk) 18:44, 13 September 2026 (UTC)

• I'm a little late here but I don't think a non-breaking space is a good idea for console names. It's fine if "Nintendo 64" wraps across a line. (The possible exception might be in a dense infobox list of consoles, but that's more the exception.) SnowFire (talk) 14:02, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Article Banner Removal

Hello. Disclosure: I am a paid editor with a COI (client: RetroStyle Games), declared on my user page. I'm posting here rather than pinging anyone in particular.

Codename: Ocean Keeper is an existing article currently tagged {{promotional}} and {{orphan}}. I've filed a COI edit request on its talk page proposing a neutral rewrite that cites only sources listed as reliable at WP:VG/RS — Destructoid, PCGamesN and Game*Spark (generally reliable) plus GameCritics — and I removed the weaker sources an earlier reviewer objected to.

Could an uninvolved editor review the edit request and, if appropriate, action it and reassess the tags? I'm not editing the article directly. Thanks. BasicStormtrooper (talk) 09:54, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

Even the revised version fails WP:GNG due to use of unreliable sources - see WP:VG/S.

This is the only reliable, significant coverage I could find. I'd basically tell your client that it's simply not possible to make such an article due to Wiki standards on notability, unless it got some major foreign language review I'm not aware of, and that Wikipedia is not for promotion without notability. I've nominated the article for deletion here to ensure the banners are something that can even be fixed. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 17:36, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

Hello. Can you please explain more about the deletion of the article? Its hard for me to understand some things about the rules (maybe a learning curve, since I am just making my first steps in the Wikipedia posting).

It was originally accepted (even though flagged as promotional). I've made changes, got feedback that many article are not suitable, and removed all the stuff, leaving only reliable sources.

I don't really understand why this article is nominated for deletion. I really appreciate your feedback and this message is meant to clarify things for me.

Furthermore, if the article is nominated for deletion, what are my next steps? Can I try and fix it before deletion? Or can I submit it later if it gets deleted?

Thank you! BasicStormtrooper (talk) 18:07, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

Thanks for the prompt reply, and for clarifying you did not use AI below. I'll try to answer your questions as best as I can.

if the article is nominated for deletion, what are my next steps? Your next steps should be to take a look at what people are saying in the deletion discussion (link: ) and respond accordingly. A list of video game sources considered reliable can be found here; search the sources linked there and see if you can find anything discussing your game in a lot of detail. Essentially, there needs to be critical analysis of the game (e.g. plot, art, design, music, etc.) from a reliable source. Concerns were raised at the deletion discussion that the sources used now were sponsored. Sponsored sources are not taken into account when assessing notability (whether or not something is worthy of an article on Wikipedia). If you're still confused about this, see Wikipedia:Notability for more information.

Can I try and fix it before deletion? Or can I submit it later if it gets deleted? The answer to both is yes, you can. You have a COI, so you still are discouraged from making edits to the article yourself. At any rate, by the looks of it you'll probably need to find at least one more gaming outlet listed on WP:VG/S who's done an independent, detailed piece on your game if you want to ensure the article gets kept. In solidarity, Gommeh ^{(talk 🎮 sign)} 18:20, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for your reply! I will really look into all of the factors you have mentioned and will do my best to find new sources. I really appreciate your feedback and will do my best to save the article from deletion :)

Have a nice day! BasicStormtrooper (talk) 18:26, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

Did you use AI to generate that message, @BasicStormtrooper? We highly discourage using AI to communicate with users here on Wikipedia. We want to hear what you have to say, not what ChatGPT is telling you (guideline is at WP:LLMTALK). While it's possible that this is a false positive, GPTZero gave me a 100% indication that your above message is AI-generated. In solidarity, Gommeh ^{(talk 🎮 sign)} 17:49, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

Hello!

No, I didn't use AI, I just tried to make this message as brief and certain as possible. From my experience in using AI detectors, they often flag brief or somewhat "template" messages as AI. I am sorry that my message gave such an impression (even though I think that AI usage for a message would be a pretty stupid idea). Believe it or not, I have a lot of personal reasons to not use AI in my work, especially in communication.

About the article itself, I don't quite understand why it is nominated for deletion and is still marked as promotional. I've made enough changes that made it a regular and non-promotional article. Just gave information about the game itself. Honestly, its quite difficult for me to understand why any other article about a video game can exist, while this can't. BasicStormtrooper (talk) 18:03, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

There are sites that editors have decided are unreliable and reliable, based on their past history of article quality and writer trustworthiness. It is quite easy for "unreliable" sources to have little journalistic credibility, or be content farms who have zero discernment in what they write about. WP:RSP is something of a master list for reliable sources, but individual subject areas also have more specific master lists like WP:VG/S. The deletion nomination is because a dearth of reliable sources has been found, though some new sources have been discovered that means it's possible it will be kept. They are totally different than the ones you mentioned though, and include one from GamePlay (magazine) among others. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 20:00, 16 September 2026 (UTC)

Thank you for your reply! I will definitely look more into articles you brought to my attention, as well as will try to find new ones. I really appreciate your feedback and effort to help me with the article! Thank you. BasicStormtrooper (talk) 08:06, 17 September 2026 (UTC)

Tokyo Game Show

I will be at Tokyo Game Show in a few hours.

Anything you want me to take pictures of? Syced (talk) 12:07, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

I have zero idea if there are any requirements, but IMO I would try to get a picture of the General Exhibition Area if there is one, and take pictures of major video game exhibits/marketing material, as they will be helpful for adding images to the "Marketing" sections of those articles The 🏎 Corvette 🏍 ZR1^{(The Garage)} 14:19, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

Just watch out, Japan does not have Freedom of Panorama except for buildings. Photos of copyrighted content will be deleted if uploaded to Commons unless clearly not the main subject of the image. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 20:47, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

Definitely any developers. There's a good amount without an image on their page. GamerPro64 19:18, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

Any pictures you can get that you intent to provide to commons, try to avoid having copyrighted elements front and center or in clear view. A poster in the background of a far shot will be okay per commons' de minimus approach, but if the art is clearly visible and seems to be the focus of the photo, we'd not be able to treat it as free. Masem (t) 19:20, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

Any developers, particularly non-Japanese ones or anyone that's having a big panel there (assuming they allow pictures at those). In solidarity, Gommeh ^{(talk 🎮 sign)} 19:22, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

I'm a miHoYo fan, so on the off-chance they've decided to show up again, anything regarding them or their games. Having said that, they haven't been to TGS since I believe 2023. In solidarity, Gommeh ^{(talk 🎮 sign)} 20:57, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

I'm a Dead or Alive fan so any merch of DOAX Venus Vacation at the Koei Tecmo booth would be cool. Also, I believe Melty Blood: Twi-Lumina will have a big presence at the Aniplex booth. Any photos of either would be most welcome! Jotamide (talk) 20:31, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

• Also exterior photos of the venue are good. (Japan has same freedom of panorama as US) Masem (t) 21:08, 18 September 2026 (UTC)

I uploaded a few dozen pictures at Category:Tokyo Game Show 2026. Problem: I have 1000 more (mostly indie game booths) and will never have the time to upload them all (blurring copyrighted parts takes me a long time). Plus I actually have very limited gaming knowledge. Any volunteer to upload them? I believe you can contact me via email, I can share a Google Drive folder with you. Thanks in advance! Syced (talk) 08:14, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

How about uploading them all to a Flickr album with a license that allows volunteers use Flickr2Commons and pick what's safe to use? Jotamide (talk) 23:45, 20 September 2026 (UTC)

Done: https://www.flickr.com/photos/204995936@N06 Flickr only allows 1000 pictures for free accounts, so I uploaded the first 1000, but there are 2000 more waiting. Can you let me know once everything usable is uploaded, so that I can upload the next batch? My Google Drive offer also stands. By the way, the Flickr account I was previously using for this purpose had been deleted (presumably due to low activity) so I had to create another account, I don't expect this new one to last longer. Syced (talk) 04:12, 21 September 2026 (UTC)

I see it at 999. GamerPro64 02:18, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

Pending COI edit request at Talk:Mitchell F. Chan

Hi all. I'm the subject of Mitchell F. Chan (disclosed, verified account). On 19 July I posted sourcing fixes as an {{edit COI}} request at Talk:Mitchell F. Chan#Edit requests from the article subject (sourcing fixes). Each one addresses a "failed verification" or "citation needed" tag and comes with an independent source. The request is still open, so if an uninvolved editor has time to review it, I'd be grateful. I won't edit the article myself. Thanks! Mitchellfchan (talk) 02:05, 22 September 2026 (UTC)

Sniper Elite (video game)

Hello everyone. I'm in the process of improving Sniper Elite articles and I'm about to finish working on the first game. I have digged through a lot of information, but unfortunately I did not find several important informations regarding this article. I've tagged them with {{cn}} tags in the article. This includes:

• That MC2 France published the game in Europe
• The Windows, PS2, and Xbox release dates in Europe
• The European release date of the Wii version (and the fact that you can use the Wii Zapper in the game)
• Sniper Elite's release on steam (whether it was in 2012 or some other year)
• That MC2-Microids published the OS X version of the game.
• The OS X release date.

I'd appreciate if anyone could help, so that I can nominate this for Good Article status. Cheers, Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 14:07, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

Maybe MCV archives on the Video Game History Foundation site would help? Link here (Oinkers42) (talk) 15:34, 23 September 2026 (UTC)

Thank you everyone. I added what I could in the article. It's sad that some of these release dates remain unsourced. I've removed them from the article until we find reliable sources covering the exact dates. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 12:22, 24 September 2026 (UTC)

Video Business question

Hi all. Video Business is an article I've created last year. But I'm not sure whether to tag it as part of our WikiProject. It more than 1000 video game related articles according to the Gale Research site. (which has the past VB editions)

Would love to hear what others think. Timur9008 (talk) 12:47, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

I think yes, we're fairly maximalist here. I saw that Cashbox (magazine) got tagged last week; it was a music magazine that covered some arcade games back at the dawn of the industry, so there's some similarities there. --PresN 13:21, 29 September 2026 (UTC)

Went ahead and tagged it. Thanks! Timur9008 (talk) 06:18, 30 September 2026 (UTC)
