Talk:Preservation projects

What is allowed on this page?

edit

Of course, this wiki is supposed to be geared more towards emulation and not really archiving or datahoarding, but what would be appropiate for this page? Should it be mainly for preserving games/softwares or can it also focus on other materials related to it (i.e. manuals, fan servers, box art, magazines etc.)? -Skylark (talk) 01:24, 30 December 2019 (CET)

Anything related is fine by me. We could make one table for games and another for related. -Jpx (talk) 06:40, 30 December 2019 (CET)
