Linking guidance
These guidelines are suggested by WikiProject Video games.
- While the Internet Archive has an WP:COPYLINK.
- Only link to one platform per game article; there is no need to link to an arcade version and MS-DOS version of the same game
- If an article is about multiple games, include a link for each one if possible
- For games released on multiple platforms, generally prefer:
- platforms on which the game was originally released
- platforms for which the game was best known
- platforms generally considered to have the best port of the game
