Hi Pokahplaya, thanks for your message on my talk page. The reason I reverted your edits was because the source you used: http://www.winnergambling.com, is not considered a reliable source for Wikipedia articles. The problem boils down to this: all information in Wikipedia articles should be verifiable by readers - that is they should be able to see where that information comes from and be able to rely on the source of that information. Reliability means that the source is published and independent. For our purposes, websites are generally not considered reliable because there is no way to know what independent, editorial oversight has been applied. Some websites do have such an editorial policy but I couldn't find any description of such a policy on winnergambling.com.
If there is such a policy, or you otherwise believe winnergambling.com to be a reliable source per Wikipedia's guidelines, then please discuss that on the article's discussion page. Thanks for understanding, Gwernol 13:03, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
The article Bonus Flush has been proposed for deletion because of the following concern:
- video game stub article with no indication of notability, lacking independent RS references
While all constructive contributions to Wikipedia are appreciated, content or articles may be deleted for any of several reasons.
You may prevent the proposed deletion by removing the {{proposed deletion/dated}}
notice, but please explain why in your edit summary or on the article's talk page.
Please consider improving the article to address the issues raised. Removing {{proposed deletion/dated}}
will stop the proposed deletion process, but other deletion processes exist. In particular, the speedy deletion process can result in deletion without discussion, and articles for deletion allows discussion to reach consensus for deletion. Dialectric (talk) 15:30, 13 March 2014 (UTC)
