  • Fan made remake/restoration/coninuation ? differentiation of concepts is a problem
  • Remaster -> fan made remasters are missing, Fallout restoration etc
  • Fangame -> weak article
  • Video game remake -> weak and underfocus on hobbyist activity
  • Video game continuation -> TA2 , Fallout 2 restoration? after protocol, and other source code releases? resurrection projects of shutdown servers?

Robocode

https://en.wikipedia.org/w/index.php?title=Robocode&oldid=637979357 I would like to restore this page, as it is quite popular (https://sourceforge.net/projects/robocode/files/stats/timeline?dates=2000-05-12+to+2017-05-18 1 million downloads) and I believe notable. Someone want to help me finding more good reliable secondary sources ? Shaddim (talk) 00:28, 18 May 2017 (UTC)

infobox video games

I try to start a discussion to add (re-add?) fields from the general software infobox which would also (or especially) FOSS games, e.g. license and more differentiated release model. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template_talk:Infobox_video_game

It seems the general software infobox is better suited for our needs.

Red eclipse

Freeorion

FreeOrion was created and deleted already multiple times (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wikipedia:Articles_for_deletion/FreeOrion), yet, I think with at least 700,000 downloads and broad recpetion it should have an article.
