210<p>I believe eventually academia will give BBS door games the scrutiny and research they deserve. I hope the articles on this wiki, as well as the original research on the <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://www.breakintochat.com/blog/">Break Into Chat blog</a> will be helpful in those future endeavors.
211</p><p>I have not simply preserved old Wikipedia articles. I have expanded them, and added new articles and more sources. But I could use help! There remain many, many BBS door games not represented on the wiki right now.
212</p><p>
212Can you help? <b><a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="https://digipres.club/@kirkman">Please get in touch</a></b> to request access. 
213</p><p>Here are the guiding principles:
214</p>
215<ul><li>Any door game is worthy of an article (notability will not be a concern)</li>
216<li>The more sources, the better</li>
217<li>The higher the quality of the sources, the better</li></ul>
