message: I notice that on the German Wikipedia this entry is much longer. Could someone who speaks German translate it and expand this article? Raffaello9 19:24, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

message: Is there a source for the implication that Avellone began the Fallout Bible specifically because he feared Van Buren would be cancelled? It's not the impression you'd get from reading it, and I don't really see the logic. It might be interesting to note that he lied directly to the fans several times in the Bible about it being connected to Fallout 3, although I think many weren't convinced. --Kaffedrake 23:11, 26 October 2006 (UTC)

thread_title:  Fallout bible 

message: The recent rewrite is completely unsourced and uses non-free images without a rationale for inclusion in this article. I reverted to the version that was sourced with an article in Edge. That was not much but the rewritten version reads like something copied from an official bio and the quotations lack sourcing. It's just not clear where the info is from so per BLP concerns the previous version is it now. The changed version is in the history if someone wants to work on sourcing with reliable sources.

message: I removed a proposed deletion note because checking the Google News archives I think there is significiant coverage. Further discussion can happen on WP:AFD if needed. Hekerui (talk) 15:39, 9 January 2011 (UTC)
replies: text: hmm...most of those seem minor mentions.  Few if any articles *about* Avellone.  But I can't be arsed with Wiki bureaucracy and don't care enough to AFD it. 87.74.73.12 (talk) 20:09, 14 July 2014 (UTC)

message: @Dissident93: "I'm talking DLCs in general; if they can't be played without another product (base New Vegas), then they shouldn't really belong on the table as a separate entry." Then why not remove other entries like NWN2: Mask of the Betrayer or IWD: Heart of Winter? Are they not being removed because they have Wiki articles, or do you have some different arbitrary reasoning? --Sek-2 (talk) 20:34, 26 January 2020 (UTC)

replies: text: Take the case of Kevin Spacey - there was the accusations and then a lot of trial coverage that's been ongoing for a long time. The situation around Spacey's allegations have been in the news for several months to years. Avellone's were a burst of coverage over a few days and then that's it. There's currently no charges filed against him (that we know of and its not our place to go seeking that out until its reported), etc. Basically, accusations were made, and he and various companies decided that he needed to be let off their projects. At this point, that's the end of story. That doesn't need to be called out as a separate section, given everything else in the article at this point. --Masem (t) 05:47, 6 July 2020 (UTC)

text: Also, it wasn't Avellone's that was the jumping off point, it started with events on Twitch. Avellone came after those events. And even if his was the case, again, his story was a burst of coverage that hasn't gained any attention since a week ago. --Masem (t) 05:48, 6 July 2020 (UTC)
replies: text:  Just curisous, what wikipedia policy would make a Forbes article written by Erik Cain not be a reliable source for this wiki entry? Is there a policy that excludes certain contributors from reputable sources?  182.158.83.164 (talk) 07:00, 28 June 2021 (UTC)
replies: text:  Contributors at Forbes do not have any editorial review of their work, unlike work published at most newspapers where there would be an editor to review for accuracy and other factors, a key requirement for most WP:RS, especially around biographies of living persons. There is something that does a very light cursory check, but this is not considered good enough for Wikipedia so we consider any "Contributor" piece from Forbes to be "self-published" for all purposes and thus unreliable. See WP:FORBESCON. --Masem (t) 13:11, 28 June 2021 (UTC)

text: A source at the italian version of Eurogamer pointing this out has been found. I would expect the English version of EG to have an article soon by the same metric so we should be fine w/o Forbes at this point. --Masem (t) 23:46, 27 June 2021 (UTC)

thread_title:  BLP concerns vs. sexual assault allegations as a section 

message: Before the allegations surfaced, wasn't Avellone slated to be taking on further creative work with Disney for Star Wars? 
How much work did he do on Jedi: Fallen Order? I know it was completely drowned out by subsequent coverage of the aformentioned circumstances, but immediately prior I distinctly remember reading about his work on Fallen Order and how he was to be a creative voice on Star Wars properties going forward. 
Obviously, this didn't happen (and both Avellone and the SW ip are arguably worse for it), but it might be worth its own paragraph or just separate sentence in the bio section. 
I'm willing to put in the footwork but someone else will need to actually make the edit because I'm uneducated in wikipedia's protocols and don't have the time to learn. 73.194.204.218 (talk) 23:55, 26 January 2023 (UTC)
