Untitled[edit]

The article should mention the contributing editors. After all it's not just the Hivemind all the time. Radomaj (talk) 14:18, 30 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Added few of the frequent categories of stories from what I could recall from memory. Please feel free to add. Chocolate Horlicks (talk) 06:44, 9 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Removing tags[edit]

Have made some updates and added more meat to the article. I also see that the article has its fair share of references. Can the tags be removed ? Chocolate Horlicks (talk) 02:51, 27 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Company title[edit]

The RPS website itself gives us two different versions to put their company title: The footer (on every page) gives us "Rock Paper Shotgun Ltd." [without commas, with dot], while e.g. Privacy Stuff! and RPS Compo Rules pages give the name "Rock, Paper, Shotgun Ltd" [with commas, without dot]. Which one to use? Also @The1337gamer which made consider thhis based on his edit. Lordtobi (✉) 20:35, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

It has commas. UK registrar: [1] --The1337gamer (talk) 20:41, 26 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

copy edit[edit]

edited the lead; in particular to nuke the "all other staff at the time remained" bit that reads as ad copy. (Besides, if anything the site is having a very high turnover since the buyout^[1])
removed contributors from lead; highlighting founders as opposed to generic contributors
stopped differentiating between current and former contributors; not reporting on each and every hire or departure (this is hardly interesting and makes the article need constant updating)
listing contributors alphabetically (and in list form)

Accusations of journalistic lack of integrity[edit]

https://deepfreeze.it/outlet.php?o=rock%2C_paper%2C_shotgun I can't easily find a mainstream wiki-acceptable source for the linked allegations. Oathed (talk) 15:40, 27 April 2023 (UTC)[reply]
