Support Makes sense to me. Nicereddy (talk) 23:54, 25 August 2022 (UTC)
Comment The URL slugs are unstable, e.g. call-of-duty-modern-warfare-remastered was "modern-warfare-remastered" in 2019. On the plus side, this website has some unique content, and looking through the list of "IDs", I didn't notice any single-value violations except The Last of Us Part II.

- Yeah, their database was frankly in a in bad state until August of this year, but now they've finally put it in the order, so I don't think there will be any problems. At the very least, it will be possible to indicate that identifiers may change. Regards Kirilloparma (talk) 22:36, 7 September 2022 (UTC)
