Not editable

Would like an explanation of why my edits were undone

I saw that you undid almost all of my edits for a page with a good chunk of them having information like graphical options. I under the necessity for the empty templates to be removed, but what was incorrect with the filled in edits?

Hi, if this regarding Diner Dash the monetization, DLC, and cloud save templates are not needed for games that don't support them at all. The only graphics options I removed were RT and HDR which a game of this type would not support at all due to the time of release. Some others I edited like FOV are not applicable at all for a game of this type. The exact release date is unknown but most sites point to mid-late 2005. The minimum requirements for OS X were incorrect as I have a physical copy of the game that has them on the case.

Thank you for the requirement correction. Would it make more sense if HDR and ray-tracing are n/a instead of unknown as they didn’t exist rather than not be included? I would argue AF and AA are false/not included as that existed when Diner Dash came out though.

For the publisher, both Brighter Child Interactive and Minds Media published edutainment games for children IPs, with more connections pointing to Minds Media as Child Interactive is only sourced on Internet Archive’s website and a game they made called Dino Dash.

And apologies, I did post the incorrect store link as the the Mac requirements source. I’ll add that for ease of access.

All good. HDR and RT can be listed as N/A I just leave them blank as they were not used at time of games release. AF and AA apply to 3D games so these should be listed as N/A for this game. My copy of Diner Dash specifically says BCI Software and Brighter Child Interactive LLC on the case. Brighter Child has a page on Mobygames with an incomplete games list there.

Then it makes sense why so many people get the two publishers confused - thanks for the explanations.
