Re Gears 5 Xbox Play Anywhere

If Xbox Play Anywhere is going to be removed from key points because its also listed under Availability, it needs to also be changed on Gears of War 4 for the sake of consistency. Id argue its more of a key point and that the reference was useful information for the user and its removal was a detriment but *shrug*

Edit- I see Xbox Play Anywhere does link to a PCGW glossary entry describing the service so my point about the reference is null but the prior still stands.

Also checked all other Play Anywhere title articles just to ensure consistency .

The wiki is community-created, so the presence of something on a page does not make it valid or in line with the current guidelines. Is the key point in question also applicable to the Steam version of the game, making it universal? Either way, the wiki is focused on PC gaming, and it is not expected that most of its users would find this information of extreme importance that should be delivered from the first paragraph. Moreover, key points in general are to be largely replaced by the relatively new introduction template.

Key points are easily digestible and don't waste the users time on walls of text. This has been my least favorite change recently. Regardless, not trying to be argumentative. An observation and suggestion, nothing more.

I understand your concern and I think there is value to it, but nothing on the wiki is mandatory unless it's part of the Assignments system. One can contribute as little as a sentence or none at all. That aside, even under the previous revision of the guidelines, I would stick to my argument on the lack of applicability of the information to most or all users to warrant the prominence that it got.
