Clean up of page

[edit]

Hi there! This page needs to have an update to the list of games, as well as a clean up to remove close connection editing. Could someone please take a look? I have a COI. Geo2kar (talk) 09:52, 23 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hey there, thanks for bringing this up and acknowledging your COI. I'll start off by addressing the close-connection editing.
  1. BADGERworrier (talk · contribs) is listed in the template as having a COI, and they created the page back in 2013. They haven't edited since that day, so I doubt they're checking.
  2. BallooneyToon (talk · contribs) also is listed in the template as having a COI, and they have not edited since 2017. They last edited the PikPok article in 2014.
After looking through their contributions and user talk pages I don't have as much information on them as I'd like. Geo2kar, do you know who those accounts belong to and what relationship (if any) do they have with PikPok?
With regard to the list of games, unfortunately I am not familiar with PikPok, so I'll leave that for editors who know more about the subject to decide. If you'd like, you can file an edit request with the edits you want to be done (e.g. updated game information) and an uninvolved editor will process them.

Thanks for checking in, Gommeh. I believe BalloonyToon is another PikPok employee who tried to update the page back then, not understanding the COI rules. I don't know who BADGERworrier is. An edit request sounds like a good idea, I will work on that. Thank you. Geo2kar (talk) 20:40, 23 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Update of page request

[edit]
  • This page has conflict of interest issues which can be resolved with rewording and additional citations
  • The list of games needs updating

As I have a conflict of interest, I have created a suggested draft of the page in my sandbox User:Geo2kar/sandbox

Thank you!

Hello, I have partially implemented this edit request by completing edits to the lede and history section. I am noting that I made the following changes:
  • The businessdesk source supports Into the Dead as one of the most famous games of PikPok, but it lists Clusterduck as the second. Rival Stars Horse Racing is only listed with other games later on in the article. I therefore only included Into the Dead in the lede.
  • Listed sources support a description of primarily developing mobile games, so I wrote that instead of listing all platforms developed for.
  • The URL supporting work with Adult Swim is inaccessible, so I did not include this sentence. I instead listed Shatter, which is supported by other sources for this time period
  • Turbo Racing League is only supported by an announcement from PikPok itself; although this supports the fact that PikPok developed such a game, it does not support it being an important enough game to be due a separate sentence from the Games list.
  • I removed the sentence on PikPok supporting the GDSR. This seems like something that would be relevant to a page on that law, not on the page of the game development studio.
I will work on updating the table of games later. Feel free to respond to me if you feel any of the omissions described above were in error (and a non-COI editor can feel free to make the additions themselves). FrimaireFroid (talk) 22:06, 11 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
Hello again, noting that I have now finished implementing the table changes. I did not make the requested changes to the second table (combining multiple releases of the same game on different platforms into one entry) since that would create inconsistency with the first table. I do not think it would be a problem if you wanted to implement this change consistently across both tables though. I also changed the abbreviated console names to match the longform names used in the first table on my own initiative.
Again, please feel free to respond if you believe I made any errors. Thank you for making this request through the COI template, and I'm sorry the wait was long! FrimaireFroid (talk) 06:31, 12 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
Thank you very much for these updates. Is it possible to now remove the COI issue warning from the page? Thanks again. Geo2kar (talk) 06:52, 12 October 2026 (UTC)Reply
I just reviewed the "when to remove" page of the COI template to be sure, and, yeah, it seems reasonable to remove now. I have also removed the citations needed tag since all statements made in the main text are cited and, referring to other developers' pages, it does not seem that a citation is required for every game in the table. I will not remove the notability tag simply because I am not personally experienced enough with notability guidelines to make that call. And no problem, happy to help!
