I added that some game publishers cite VGC as well, and included a link to Codemasters doing so at http://www.codemasters.com/press/?showarticle=9918, which I found from Joystiq's page that cited VGC with a quote from "VGChartz president Brett Walton."

Ok I fixed up all 4 citations. They have the titles of the articles they link to now and whatnot. It's looking slightly better. Needs more content though. Maybe a history section would help, with dates for when the site launched, when U.S. sales went weekly after NPD flipped out, and when the new Amazon widget was launched. I'd do it but I don't have the dates at hand and I'm about to go to sleep.

I changed all the "ioi's" and added the launch date (I think that's the right one)

Every little bit helps :)

Here's one important tip. It'll be nice to add some mentions by publications like mainstream magazines or newspapers. Wikipedia has a notability guideline for websites here: http://en.wikipedia.org/WP:WEB

If mentions by non-trivial sources are not present, it may be (and will be) eventually nominated for deletion (and deleted).
