Template talk:Just released

Just wondering...what exactly is the initial press rating? -- Son of Suns

The score the game recieved on IGN. Click the 7.7 in the template. Monty Mole 16:50, 14 September 2006 (EDT)

The itacilized number is a link to GameStats, which lists the ratings of major websites & combines it w/ reader reviews for an average. I plainlinked it to blend in. Wayoshi ( T·C·@ ) 17:05, 14 September 2006 (EDT)

What exactly is the reason for stating the initial press rating on the template? While the critical reception should be a topic of all game articles, do we need it in the Just-Released template? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 17:07, 27 November 2007 (EST)

Citation cleaning

Is there a set date for removing bone-obvious citations from a page after a game's been released? When the game's freely available to the public, it shouldn't be necessary to cite the appearance of every single enemy and character when the best citation would be "looking at the game yourself".

I was thinking about this as well. Maybe two weeks or a month after release?

Usually the template is removed between one to three months, so any citations that refer to the game itself (unless necessary) should be removed whenever the template is, imo. 22:38, 4 November 2017 (EDT)
