Some notes edit

Hi Rtao1, I wanted to give you some quick feedback. This looks really good so far, there are just a few things of note:

The first is to avoid linking to places like iTunes and Google Play. The reason for this is that these sites sell the app, so they're considered to be e-commerce sites. Using these can make a page seem unintentionally promotional, as they're not neutral sourcing because they're intended to sell the product to the reader. There's an additional issue with this as far as Wikipedia is concerned since using these pages can come across as Wikipedia endorsing the app or the stores themselves, for example. Also be careful of Wikia - that site is like Wikipedia in that anyone can edit, so it isn't seen as a reliable source on Wikipedia, not even when backing up basic game information.

When linking to things in the external links section, Wikipedia tends to prefer keeping it minimal. For example, if the developer has their social media links posted on their website, then all you need to list on Wikipedia is their official website unless their actions on that particular social media website is notable or if they have an account that isn't listed, such as the English Twitter account.

When you add sourcing, make sure that you fill out the information fully. It's easiest to do this on VisualEditor, since all you have to do is paste the URL into the citation box and it will largely do this for you. (Occasionally you may need to tweak or fix sourcing information, but it's definitely a lot easier.) If you don't have VisualEditor enabled, you can do that via these directions. If you are using source mode and feel more comfortable that way, you can create the citation by clicking the cite button in the toolbar above and selecting the applicable source or by writing out a full citation and surrounding it by ref tags.

Other than that, this looks good! I've tweaked some of the information as far as the collapsible fields go - mostly I just replaced it with a different collapse template that would make it easier to see that there's something there. I also tweaked the tag for that section to be more specific to the section. Shalor (Wiki Ed) (talk) 19:26, 20 February 2018 (UTC)Reply
