Hello! Thank you for creating Category:Electronic games. However, we normally need at least three pages in a category before it is created. Because categories are a way to group together similar articles, there is no need to create a new category for just one or two articles. If you think there might be more pages to add to the new category, please add them now. Thank you. – Cyber.Eyes2005Talk 04:03, 20 June 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello. If you want to change the name of an existing category, like you did at Category:Prince of Persia games, please move the original category, do not start a new one from scratch. You should move existing categories to preserve the page history and attribution. If you have more questions, feel free to ask me. Thank you. ✩ Dream Indigo ✩ 18:20, 8 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Thank you for creating a new category. However, we normally need at least three pages in a category before it is created. Because categories are a way to group together similar articles, there is no need to create a new category for just one or two articles. If you think there might be more pages to add to the new category, please add them now. Thank you. Please do not create small categories just to add Template:Popcat.

RfD nomination of Category:Video games developed in the Americas

[change source]

An editor has requested deletion of Category:Video games developed in the Americas, a page you created. We appreciate your changes, but the nominator doesn't believe that the page meets Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion and has explained why in the nomination (see also "What Wikipedia is not").

Please comment on the discussion by adding your comments at Wikipedia:Requests for deletion/Requests/2024/Category:Video games developed in the Americas and please be sure to sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).

You may also change the page during the discussion to address the nominator's concerns. But you should not remove the requests for deletion template from the top of the page; such removal will not end the deletion debate. Thank you very much. Auntof6 (talk) 03:17, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Welcome to Wikipedia. You might not have done it on purpose, but your recent change removed helpful information from Wikipedia. We ask that you do not remove things from pages without giving a good reason in the change summary. If it was a mistake, do not worry. The part of the article you removed has been put back. If you want to try things out, please use the sandbox. If you would like to learn how to help Wikipedia, please see the welcome page. Thank you. MathXplore (talk) 05:26, 12 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Thank you for creating Category:Fantasy video games. However, we normally need at least three pages in a category before it is created.

Shooter game categories

[change source]

Hello, QuantumFoam66. I saw that you redirected Category:Shooter video games to Category:Shooter video games. When you redirect a category that is linked in Wikidata like that, please change the Wikidata entry as well. If you need help doing that, feel free to ask. Thanks! -- Auntof6 (talk) 06:42, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Attribution part 2

[change source]

As I have already asked you when talking about Category:Prince of Persia games, please do not "move" categories or pages like you did at Category:Shooter games. This disrupts attribution and the page history. ✩ Dream Indigo ✩ 22:45, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Alright, I get it. By the way, I'm not renaming these categories anyway. But next I rename a category I will use the "Move" button in the "Tools" seen at the top-right corner of category pages. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 21:56, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you :) ✩ Dream Indigo ✩ 22:06, 1 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why did you remove all the content and changed it to a redirect? In en Wikipedia, it had content Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 10:52, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Please do not remove content from pages on Wikipedia, as you did to "Piggy", without giving a good reason in the change summary. That is vandalism. If you want to practice changing Wikipedia, please use the sandbox. Thank you. Cactus🌵 spiky ouch 10:53, 17 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unexplained deletion of the category "Video gaming in Japan"

[change source]

Hi everyone. You may noticed I deleted one of my own categories again, mostly because Simple Wikipedia doesn't yet also have the parent category of "Video gaming by country", that's all! QuantumFoam66 (talk) 23:12, 27 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

You don't necessarily need the parent category to keep the one you deleted. -- Auntof6 (talk) 03:07, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Emptying categories

[change source]

Hello, QF66. You may have noticed that I declined three of your recent QD requests. To QD a category for being empty, the category needs to be empty for 4 days. If the categories are still empty in 4 days, you can ask for QD again.

One other note: when you are emptying a category, please consider moving its contents to a parent category instead of just removing the category. For example, the contents of the Zoo Tycoon category (I loved that game!) could have been moved to the simulator game category.

If you have any questions about this, let me know. -- Auntof6 (talk) 03:13, 11 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Hello! Thank you for creating Category:Speculative fiction video games. However, we normally need at least three pages in a category before it is created. Because categories are a way to group together similar articles, there is no need to create a new category for just one or two articles. If you think there might be more pages to add to the new category, please add them now. Thank you. Aster🪻 talk edits 16:32, 15 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Quick deletion of Category:Stadia games

[change source]

The page you wrote, Category:Stadia games, has been selected for quick deletion. If you think this page should be kept, please add {{wait}} below the line {{QD}} and say why on the talk page. If the page is already gone, but you think this was an error, you can ask for it to be undeleted. You can find more information about the reason here. QuantumFoam66 (talk) 21:59, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@QuantumFoam66 Since you created this category, It would have been more appropriate if you had tagged it as G7. Please do not misuse the G2 criteria to delete categories. — *Fehufangą✉ Talk page 22:08, 21 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
