References guide

The following is a list of commonly-encountered References issues.

  • Sponsorships: Any officially-sponsored references, such as award shows or motorsports events, belong in Sponsorships.
  • Recurring references: Any commonly-recurring references, such as a character in a television series, only need their first appearance listed. Ensure to note that said reference is a recurring one.
  • Multi-game shows: Any television series which cover numerous games by different companies, like GameCenter CX, only need their first reference covered. Ensure to list any future references in the same listing.
  • Hardware in Sonic references: If a reference features someone playing a Sonic game, and it shows them using hardware required to play the game (like a Control Pad (Mega Drive) or Game Gear), that reference doesn't need to be copied here as well.

To do

  • Rename to Film, Television, and Web?
  • Make a distinction between References and Sponsorships (may need content migrated between articles)?
  • Limit entries by notability?
