Invalid characters in the "description" field.

I was going to try to fix it, but thought maybe that what is in there shouldn't. I already checked and that text is not on the box. If that info gets removed, it could be stated that there is a bonus disc included for Tom Clancy's Endwar.

That is not what the description field is used for anyways.  I added your suggested description instead.

I was so deeply disturbed that my Virtua Fighter CG Collection didn't appear in numerical order due to a space in the name of three of them that I edited the 3 offenders and removed the space. I feel much better now.  ;D

Oh derp I saw those edits and could not figure out what had been changed about the name and had not checked here until after rejecting them.  I will resubmit edits for those items.

edit: And it has been fixed.  Sorry about that.

Found user necron99 who's basically creating new "Canadian release" entries for almost every game in their PS3 library. This raises the question: are the canadian releases any different than the US counterparts? If so how can we prove it? If it's just a product number difference (this is the case with modern nintendo games too) does that grant the game it's own entry?

The topic of inconsistent product numbers has been brought up before in THIS thread.

They are different because of their packaging. They are bilingual. If there is a case where, say, a Canadian release's contents are not unique, then it should be noted within the description as to that fact. Same would go for the euro DS games as well. In some cases, not only the product number is different but sometimes the artwork is different. This is true of sports games, where a "fellow countryman" will make the foreign release cover rather than who was on the US version.

That user seems to have added the entries correctly (notably the artwork appears to be bilingual) however the style guide says you should use [CA] instead of (Canadian release) in the title.
