Hello and welcome to my user page, my name is Noah and I am interested with anything and everything in our current technological world. I spend most of my free time working with computer parts, cleaning up and helping with the family computer and practicing my IT abilities. I also have a vast interest in video game and the culture that surrounds it. Whenever I'm not working with computers or completing school work I spend a majority of my time playing video games with my friends.

If I were to become involved with this encyclopedia long term I would most definitely involve myself in the pages surrounding anything and everything tech. It has been a huge part of my life, something that I have learned much about and would like to contribute back to the world the knowledge I have amassed through out the years. Popular figures in society today is another topic I would be semi interested in contributing to from the sole fact I like to keep up to date in our society.

Article Critique

Whats needed in the video game industry is passion, and commitment to the art of game design, this is why I visited the Yacht Club Games page on Wikipedia, and found three aspects of it worth commenting on: Age, Citations, and Structure/Completeness. Yacht Club Games is a company that follows the Independent video game development process.

The age of this page is still in its infancy due to company being founded in 2011 and announcing their first project in March of 2013. However there is still little information on the company itself posted to the page, their two most recent developments have no page dedicated to themselves, only their original creation. They are only briefly mentioned with no other sources.

The citations on the page itself are very lackluster with six citations total, four of which are interviews, and two that are direct links to the website of the company itself. However, there are no dead links nor is there any form of bias that is presented throughout the page.

The Structure/Completeness of the page can be seen as very incomplete. The very core of how the company itself was created and founded is not included in the article. Much of the viewpoints, their video game developments and the company itself, is very underrepresented as a whole. Only their first game Shovel Knight has a page dedicated to itself although they have two other full games. Since there is a lack of content on the article itself there is not any irrelevant sections.

Overall since the page is still fairly new it could use a good amount of work to make it the page that it to deserves to be, the company deserves more recognition for their creations. Something that I will look into helping with in the future.
