![]() | This page in a nutshell: A video game release is appropriate for a stand-alone article if it has been the subject of significant commentary in multiple published sources which are independent of the video game developer. Avoid creating new articles about re-releases or expansions if they will be short or redundant, and cover smaller releases at the article about the series or original game. |
This is an advice page that explains how the concept of notability may apply to articles about video game releases including items like visual novels; this does not include serious games used by businesses and organizations for teaching. This essay is not paramount, and editors should see if other notability guidelines may apply, in particular the notability criteria for web-specific content and the notability guideline for products. For articles or lists about video game elements (such as minigames or game concepts), consult the general notability guideline and guideline for the Video Games WikiProject.
