message: As I have said (and undone) numerous times, stop adding information about Lego Universe reopening, unless supported with a reliable source. I will remove any such material, as the infobox I have added states. As WP:NOT states, wikipedia is not "a crystal ball". Therefore, please stop this, and let me get on with helping on other parts of Wikipedia Mdann52 (talk) 15:54, 25 May 2012 (UTC)

thread_title:  External links modified 

message: There are a small amount of fan-made restoration projects, that aim to write a server emulator to be used with the original LU client. All of those have successfully gotten a multiplayer server to work, though in variable degrees of completeness. As by now, these projects do have websites that could be used as primary sources, I am wondering whether it is appropriate to mention them here. Relevant projects would be: https://lcdruniverse.org, https://www.darkflameuniverse.org/ (DLU) and https://lureborn.com/ (LUR).
All of these are currently closed-source and currently only open to a select group of testers, though verifiably working (e.g. youtube videos typing 2017 in in-game chat, while completing missions). These project are similar in scope and loosely tied to the now discontinued LUNI open-source server project, though all three above-mentioned projects are completely independent implementations and darkflame and lcdr are actually older than this.
In terms of copyright and legality of these: The LEGO Group has contacted projects before and tolerates their existance, provided they, are non-commercial, notify any user that: "The LEGO Group has not endorsed or authorized the operation of this game and is not liable for any safety issues in relation to the operation of this game" and (implicitly) are compliant with LEGO policy of ensuring a child-safe environment.
Most of the above is information that I find relevant in judging whether something like this should be included on the actual wikipedia article. I'm not however implying, that all that information should be included; in fact I would advise against that. As I've been personally involved in some of those projects, I would like some feedback on whether the available source material justifies an addition to the article instead of just writing such an addition and citing material which I know exists. I can link to some additional material in case someone is interested.

replies: text: As is with most, if not all, content on Wikipedia, this will need identifaiably reliable sources, that is news magazines or gaming journals (web or print) to confirm the notability of these services. Simply using their own webpages as verification is not sufficient, as all content could (potentially) be fake, if that is the case or not. At WP:VG/SE, you can find a custom Google search engine that only lists sites our WikiProject considers reliable, maybe you'll find something there. Lordtobi (✉) 08:59, 9 January 2018 (UTC)
