Margles I would recommend not saying personal information anywhere on Wikipedia. Anyone can find it if they know where to look. I will request oversight to remove the information permanently from the page history, but please do not do this in the future. It is a direct personal risk.

Hi, I saw your reversal of my contributions to the development section of the Friday Night Funkin' page. I noticed your concern over twitter being used as a source. Although twitter is typically an unacceptable source, these tweets come from the creator of the game and therefore count as acceptable (see Template:Cite Tweet page). As for other concerns, I was in the middle of citing all revisions before my contributions were undone. As someone with personal connection to the director of the game, I've been editing to the page to his liking, asking him to provide sources. The information about the Nintendo port was not reliable despite its sourcing, and the facts around the port are being kept under wraps from the public currently.

@Carolineovo In some cases Twitter can be a reliable source, but in what world does the fact that PhantomArcade's girlfriend's parents called his music taste gay belong in a Wikipedia article? That's such a trivial piece of information and definitely counts as fancruft. Blubewwy (talk) 03:36, 28 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I changed the exact wording to match the tweet, which is considered an integral part of the development of the game theme. Carolineovo (talk) 03:52, 28 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

@Carolineovo Oh and also, I believe editing a page about someone you are close to (and especially adding/removing details they have asked you to do so) counts as a conflict of interest. Not to mention the fact that you can't really prove that you're close to PhantomArcade. Blubewwy (talk) 03:38, 28 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

The conflict of interest page says one is discouraged from editing, but not barred from doing so. I understand if you should remove the unsourced edits before I can source them, but do not remove the sourced edits. PhantomArcade is a large part of this project.

He wrote the music, sure, but you also don't need to make the entire development section be about him. Blubewwy (talk) 03:49, 28 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

he did not write the music, but the story of the game and much else, as noted in my contributions. Carolineovo (talk) 03:54, 28 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

I'm referring to this edit on the Hazbin Hotel page. Since I want to avoid an edit war, I want to know your reasoning before changing anything back, because I believe your edit actually makes the flow of the sentence worse in every way.

• I am of the opinion that the phrase "Adam hints that he wants revenge on Hell for what they did to the exterminator" is speculatory and thus doesn't flow well at all (not to mention Adam doesn't really mention the dead angel ever again, most of it is Carmilla, Vaggie, or Velvette).
• Meanwhile, the phrase "who is revealed to be a former angel" is superfluous, and the "who is revealed to be" could be outright removed since the sentence would flow better that way; generally, I don't really like saying something is revealed to the audience, and in this case it isn't really revealed to the characters either since they all already know/figured it out.
• Lastly, you removed the mention that the earlier extermination is first mentioned during Charlie's meeting with Adam during the song "Hell is Forever", instead claiming it is during the TV broadcast that interrupts Vaggie's ad, and I genuinely want to know why you would change the timing of a reveal to be the wrong time.

@Unnamed anon The fact that Adam doesn't mention the dead exterminator ever again is a good point, so upon reflection, you can remove that if you want. If I removed the mention of the ad being interrupted, that was genuinely an accident on my part, and I apologize for that. That can be readded as well. However, I do feel that the phrase "who is revealed to be a former angel" is important, because this was specifically the episode where this information was revealed. Without it, the phrase "Vaggie, a former angel" almost feels like this was information that had been previously known in the show. Blubewwy (talk) 12:48, 15 February 2024 (UTC)Reply[reply]
