Perhaps this is a good time to revive something I asked about a long time ago, since some people have full editing capabilities now. A while back I noted that some fundamentally different games are lumped together (because Giant Bomb has this error) as one. I actually asked the dude who runs Giant Bomb about it, and he conceded that ideally they would be separate, but fixing it wasn’t a current priority. Can anything be done about that on the Grouvee end, now? This frequently occurs when a game has a handheld release and a home console release with the same title but developed as mechanically distinct games. For example, the [Sonic the Hedgehog page](https://www.grouvee.com/games/2412-sonic-the-hedgehog/) currently conflates the [8-bit game](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_%288-bit_video_game%29) (Game Gear, Master System) with the [16-bit game](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sonic_the_Hedgehog_%281991_video_game%29) (Genesis, etc), despite them being entirely different games. I gave other examples [here](https://discuss.grouvee.com/t/site-suggestions-missing-games-import-errors-incorrectly-combined-games-etc/368/25) in the past. Depending on how you’ve set up the tools for the “editor” people, this may or may not be easy to fix. Goodreads Librarians, for example, have a simple “separate” tool on book edition pages. Also, what is the policy about notability for inclusion? I’d personally love to see smaller experimental games (e.g., [Joy Exhibition](http://strangethink.itch.io/joy-exhibition)) that have no commercial presence but may be critically notable. --- _[View the full topic](https://discuss.grouvee.com/t/how-to-request-games-to-be-added-to-database/678)._
