I was reading through a few game spaces today and saw some pages with just the achievements pasted right into the main article. Is this allowed or just a grab for extra editing points? Or is listing the achievements a legimate thing to do. It is strange to see a game spaces only text be achievements.

No, I don't think it should be a legimate thing to do. Especially with the achievement system the site has now. 


What games have this?

Feel free to rip 'em out. An achievement guide can be created instead, or just rely on GB's built-in Achievements feature.

Achievements are best suited in guides right now.  When you see game pages like the ones you have seen so far, contact one of the Wiki Mods with a link to the page.

In all honesty Achievements aren't needed as guides either, you can click a link under the overview tab of the games page and see what achievements there are.

@Out_On_Bail: They're guides to help people get those achievements. The achievement section just shows what the achivement it, not how to get it.

Now that we have the achievement system we don't need the lists in the articles anymore.
I'm all for achievement guides.

@Forcen: Yeah, it is just an easy way for wiki editors to get points and is redundant at this point.

That's why the comments are under each achievement, so the whole community can help each other out.

The rule is, and has always been that achievement lists should not be in wiki articles.
