GTA V

Regarding the revert here, both the WP:OVERLINK issues as well as changes to link, e.g. changing ] to ], are done by Reflinks. Best, Sam Sailor 14:16, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

@Sam Sailor; So having the link as ] is okay, and your change was just a Reflinks default? And the same for linking publishers in Template:Cite web? In regards to citing publishers in the template, User:Rhain1999 and I agreed that either every publisher is linked every time in the (publisher=) field or that they are linked in the first instance and never again after that. Rhain went with the former. Is that okay? (We have the article at FAC so small things such as this matter). CR4ZE (t) 14:25, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

As for overlinking, if two of those IGN sources are a mile apart in the reflist it seems logical that they are both linked. If there are, say, 50 of them, maybe not. However, if you guys found it appropriate, I'm the last person to waste time on it. But Reflink seems to think differently. Yes, it's the default apparently, no action on my part there. As for the links to redirects, the choices Reflink makes is without question also IMO less valuable than links directly to sub sections. In other words: I understand your motivation for reverting. Best, Sam Sailor 14:34, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

Regarding redirects, well, it's maybe a situation where Reflink's choice makes sense in some cases, but not in other cases. Have a read of User talk:Dispenser/Reflinks#Redirecting links to sections. Best, Sam Sailor 15:56, 24 March 2014 (UTC)

In the instances of sub-section wikilinking in Grand Theft Auto V, they make the most sense as they are. If "melee phase" or "continue point" ever split off into their own article, that would require going through 'What links here' to fix the redundant links from other pages, but there is I'm sure a streamlined way of doing so should that ever happen.

Threes!

Thanks again for the thorough review. I appreciate your diligence. (And that Yeezus thread was really interesting... but let's promise not to do that.) See you around czar ♔ 01:35, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

Also if you have any extra FAC advice for the article, let me know (I'll watch this page) czar ♔ 02:05, 25 March 2014 (UTC)

The debate over Yeezus to me brings up the need to have a wider discussion at a WikiProject (WP:ALBUM/ WP:VG), resulting in the insertion of a new guideline into the project's MoS. In regards to Threes! being sent to FAC, I think the mid-sentence footnotes would come up in addition to the "universal acclaim" use. The prose would need meticulous tightening. Take the following sentence as an example: "The game had no inclination towards minimalism and the pair felt that they needed game mechanics to make the game appear more difficult and worthy of player attention". A mouthful. There's three uses each of the words "the" and "game", which would make the sentence's prose a little unwieldy to read. Consider things like that, and as it's quite a short article, keep reading it aloud to reword sentences to be as succinct as possible.

Feel free, if you're interested, to move along my GAN for GTA V development or GTA V's FAC. Don't forget we have work to do on Saints Row, but like you I'm not rushing to work on that one. CR4ZE (t) 04:34, 25 March 2014 (UTC)
