Error Listings and rejected edits 2022

Until the common name source is updated, do not try to edit the name.

Plenty of game titles are wrong on GameFAQs, but our common name rule dictates that we follow their formatting. Since I regularly contribute information to Japanese game entries to our database, I find myself submitting entry name edits on their site far more than I would like.

I submitted the change on GameFAQs from Nikki to Diary; however, the edit response turnaround rate is anywhere from a few days to two weeks, as it's a large site and they only have one person running the edit submission queue for some reason.

That’s good to know! I appreciate your effort and, if there’s anything else I can do to help, just let me know.

I've created a couple of pages for some Mario Kart 7 variants but want to make sure that the additional descriptor on the title is acceptable being that its the art numbers. I've also edited the original listing to be in the same format. Being that there is at least 4 UKV versions of the game with various changes I think it might be the best descriptor to use.

In the past, we've simplified the descriptors further by just using the number sequences.

Entry was for French version of the game. Your edits were replaced and put into a new entry.

If you add art to this new entry, do not use the Gamefaqs art, that art is what is used on 59402.

A merge was used instead so your WL transfers to the original entry.

Not sure what to make of this one, whether the picture has to be changed, or the name to be changed.
The naming conventions of this series are hard to wrap my head around.

Hi. New to the site so hello everyone!

Can someone help me? I think this is the right thread.

I've submitted a new image for Desperados III (https://vgcollect.com/item/219127)

This is the UK disc and there is a US version with the same image, but rated M. Does this need to be a new variant?

UK - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/175153560473
US - https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154532802746

Thanks in advance. Looking forward to using the site a lot more.

Welcome!

Our database already has an entry for the NA version of Desperados III, so unless there is an other version such as an Edition release, regional release (such as from Canada or Mexico), or something that differs a second item from the first such as an item number or cover art difference, a second entry should not be created in the NA category. The same can be said for any item in any category.

As for your edit submission to the EU entry, I do believe I rejected it this past weekend sometime. If I remember correctly, I rejected it due to it being the incorrect box art. Both the existing artwork and submitted artwork by you are outdated stock art designs. There isn't any reason to approve an edit like that.

If you have any other questions as you become acquainted to the site, feel free to post them here.

Hi. For the entry for an EU version, the cover art I submitted is not an outdated stock art, as seen in both eBay links. I have this version in my collection. I am not sure of the name of the edition I have, it is probably the only run in the EU, at least. When I look at eBay, all photos have the cover as https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/154532802746. I think I submitted two photos. The first one was the stock art, which I accept your reasoning as to why it was rejected (I did not know it was a stock image) and then the correct image, as per eBay and my own collection.

Should it not be updated to show the correct case, the one that has Mimimi in the corner, and Xbox One at the bottom?

Thanks for your response.

There may be a different reason why the art for the UK entry was rejected. We can't always guess as to why, it is best for you to rehost the image you tried to use on an image hosting site and then post it here in the forum for people to see.

The response above says it was rejected because it was stock box art, which is false. You can see the box art in the two eBay listings above.

That's actually not what I said. The reason for why your edit submission was rejected was based on a vague memory—your submission may have been rejected for another reason. For instance, if the UK eBay photo was submitted exactly, then it may have been rejected because submitted images should be cropped. And this is to say that the photo from the eBay listing was used at all. When viewing edit rejections, a broad reason as to why it was rejected is stated, such as Poor Image Quality and Incorrect Box Art, which will help give insight.

I only remember seeing one edit submission for updating 219127's front art slot.

With that said, I just went ahead and updated the front art image myself.

Thanks for the information, noted. I think the second edit I made did have the correct box art, which sounds like someone else rejected it. I agree the first image was (I think) stock art, so I understand that. I took that feedback on board and used the correct image, which was then rejected again for Incorrect Box Art, which I found confusing as it matched the eBay listings and my own sealed copy.

Thank you for helping me with this and updating it. Also, is there a way to change time settings for the forum posts etc? I'm in the UK, and the time is incorrect for me. Thanks.
