Thanks for the clarification and the link to the correct topic; I will keep them in mind for future use.

Site Feedback / Clarification on games with duplicate names
« on: May 05, 2025, 01:00:09 pm »
Hi, I recently submitted an edit to Marathon (the upcoming one) to change its name to Marathon (2025), similar to how Doom (2016) is disambiguated.
The edit was rejected with the following message:
Seeing as the page for the 2025 game already includes an erroneous link to the 1994 Macintosh game of the same name under "Also on Platforms" (and conversely, that game now claims to "also" be on PS5), I'm not clear what I did incorrectly here. Can someone please explain what was incorrect and how to separate these entries properly?
Edit: Sorry, I think this should have been posted in Video Game Database Discussion instead of Site Feedback, if a mod wants to move it.

Incorrect Formatting. Descriptor is not required as there are no other entries within the category with the same name.. Please see the VGCollect Style Guide or visit the Forums to clear up any listing questions.
