I think there are some unreliable sources among those. Either way, I'm moving some unused sources from the article here. I'm on mobile, so checking them is a bit difficult right now: ^[1]^[2]^[3]^[4]^[5]^[6] - I know the IGN article won't be very useful. ~Mable (chat) 18:05, 23 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Which one do you think is unreliable? All are published by commercial entities with a review process. Diego (talk) 18:28, 23 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

Cuatro.com seems to be a blog. All the others indeed look pretty good, now that I am back on PC and can look at them a bit better. I can't read Spanish, though, so my understanding of these sources are fairly limited either way ^_^; ~Mable (chat) 20:00, 23 January 2017 (UTC)Reply
