:: Sorry, I should have said waived ''partially or etc.'' My point was rather that games aren't licensed; there is nothing to track down and there is certainly no default value that could be applied to games ''qua'' games. If we're instead talking about researching the copyleft on a ''lot'' of existing wiki text, some of which may be exact reproductions of rules, we should be clear about it. --[[User:MCDeMarco|MCDeMarco]] ([[User talk:MCDeMarco|talk]]) 16:01, 2 May 2024 (UTC)

: Yes, I was just concerned with specifying the correct licence where the license is known, and different from the CC BY-SA 4.0 which is the default for the wiki. --[[User:Eclectics|Eclectics]] ([[User talk:Eclectics|talk]]) 07:47, 3 May 2024 (UTC)

* There is a tendency to describe the image using the "description" field, rather than the game. A sample of image markup with description could help, but is hard to show the user at the vital moment. It's not a big enough issue to rename the field (e.g., ''game_description'' or ''blurb'').--[[User:MCDeMarco|MCDeMarco]] ([[User talk:MCDeMarco|talk]]) 18:26, 8 May 2024 (UTC)

* There is an even stronger tendency to add text to the designer field, usually "Designed by". This could be avoided if the final display of the infobox already included similar text, say, ''By '' in light gray.--[[User:MCDeMarco|MCDeMarco]] ([[User talk:MCDeMarco|talk]]) 18:26, 8 May 2024 (UTC)
