Melowy moved to draftspace

An article you recently created, Melowy, is not suitable as written to remain published. It needs more citations from reliable, independent sources. (?) Information that can't be referenced should be removed (verifiability is of central importance on Wikipedia). I've moved your draft to draftspace (with a prefix of "Draft:" before the article title) where you can incubate the article with minimal disruption. When you feel the article meets Wikipedia's general notability guideline and thus is ready for mainspace, please click on the "Submit your draft for review!" button at the top of the page.

Orphaned non-free image File:Melowy franchise logo.png

⚠

Thanks for uploading File:Melowy franchise logo.png. The image description page currently specifies that the image is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, the image is currently not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the image was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that images for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

Note that any non-free images not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described in section F5 of the criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. --B-bot (talk) 17:19, 21 September 2022 (UTC)

January 2024

Welcome to Wikipedia. We appreciate your contributions, but in one of your recent edits to Nintendo Switch Online, it appears that you have added original research, which is against Wikipedia's policies. Original research refers to material—such as facts, allegations, ideas, and personal experiences—for which no reliable, published sources exist; it also encompasses combining published sources in a way to imply something that none of them explicitly say. Please be prepared to cite a reliable source for all of your contributions. You can have a look at the tutorial on citing sources. Thank you. -- ferret (talk) 00:52, 18 January 2024 (UTC)

I'm not reverting at this time, but please check over WP:VG/S, then review your recent edits on Nintendo Switch Online. Several unreliable sources (Either directly so by consensus at WP:VG/S, or because they are WP:SPS blogs and websites) are included in the prose you've added. They need replaced by reliable sources. -- ferret (talk) 16:05, 21 January 2024 (UTC)

I looked into the links you cited, primarily https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:WikiProject_Video_games/Sources#List, and saw that Dexerto was indeed a "nope"-site to use. As it was the first time I had ever looked through that page, it was of course nice to get to learn about the list; I had already tried my very best to avoid citing e.g. YouTube, forums, Nintendo.com, and small blogs.

I'll look into replacing at least the Dexerto ref, maybe 1 of other 4 too if I find any better sites to source from, but it could take me up to 48 hours to find time to do. Dandelion Sprout (talk) 16:15, 21 January 2024 (UTC)

The custom google search link on that page may also assist you, as it will only return results from pages marked as reliable-for-sure. -- ferret (talk) 16:21, 21 January 2024 (UTC)
