Gave this article a good polish, but some additional work is needed.

[edit]

Over the last couple of weeks I've put some time into making this article look a little more encyclopedic and up-to-date by putting in the new info regarding the scouting process having been carried over to the Audio Portal, reworking the "Flash Portal" section into a Movie & Games Portal section, removing cruft or unencyclopedic stuff that would be better suited for Wikigrounds, etc and making the article more accessible to a layperson with no prior knowledge of the site and its inner workings. There are two points of concern that I have yet to address-- one's the empty Art Portal section, which I plan to expand, and the empty History section, which could benefit greatly by information sourced from this part of NG-- of course, with the information used with appropriate care per WP:PRIMARY and avoidance of promotional language that may be present in the source.

I can't do the latter all that easily since the work firewalls block the page, and I don't have the time or the mind to do it at home. If anyone at all (anyone? [long echoing silence]) is able to take a peep at that information and prepare something for the History section, we could be that much closer to getting this to GA status. (obviously, there's still a ton of work needing to be done before GAR can be considered, but baby steps, you know...) BlusterBlasterkablooie! 12:41, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

The Events section needs some work, too. Found this page which would come in handy to fix/update the info there, but I'm having the same firewall problem as I am with the History info. BlusterBlasterkablooie! 13:08, 21 March 2015 (UTC)[reply]

Why does Will Stamper redirect here?

[edit]

The page for BattleBlock Theater contains a reference to Will Stamper. Clicking this reference redirects to Newgrounds, but this page does not contain any mention of Will Stamper. APersonCalledYoshie (talk) 12:01, 20 April 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Matt Jolly / Madness Combat

[edit]

Probably one of the earliest pioneers of flash animation and one of the earliest animators too. Matt "Krinkels" Jolly deserves his own page, or at least a mention. 2001:1970:5299:8D00:10D4:C88B:536A:A702 (talk) 06:55, 30 June 2019 (UTC)[reply]

Since the site is community based, doesn't it seem fitting that the most popular creators be key to the site's identity? HELLOWORLDIAMTYPING (talk) 21:18, 3 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
