Have to say that it might be difficult to figure out a precedent for video game websites. Polygon and Ars Technica are other notable websites that has decent quality. But I don't feel like Giant Bomb's article is all that well. I feel like there is too much use of primary sources on it, linking back to GB articles. Other sources are very questionable (Cinema Blend, anjelsyndicate.org, oxJane). There is a lot of details in the article that might be seen as unnecessary. What's the purpose of the last paragraph in the "Industry Impact" section, for example? Is there really a need for the "Criticism and Controversies" sections? Or the "Employees" section? I might be wrong about my criticisms but this article does come off as bloated. GamerPro64 04:09, 16 January 2016 (UTC)
(1) This is more "referred to as" than "cited" but it's also a claim that Klepek is not making with editorial distance... it's from primary source, sycophantic email as he asks for the company to hire him... Almost all of the primary sources should be killed in this article—usually a lack of secondary source coverage indicates that the point is not worth mentioning. And the non- WP:VG/RS sources should also be justified, and based on a spot check of their usage, I think they're best deleted too. czar 16:49, 16 January 2016 (UTC)Klepek ... cited the website as "the singular bastion of a truly independent voice" in video game journalism.
