2015[[[index.php?title=GamerGate_Achievements&action=edit&section=7|edit]]]

  • William Usher runs an article on Tyler Wilde, author of the PC Gamer master race article, revealing that Wilde maintained close personal relationships with employees of Ubisoft and Capcom, but wrote about their products without disclosing his potential conflict of interest to readers.[59] This results in PC Gamer deleting Tyler Wilde's articles and apologizing, as well as creating an official ethics policy:

PC Gamer writers will continue to be obliged to disclose any significant personal relationships with people whose work they might cover, with the expected outcome that they will no longer be assigned to that particular subject. In any situation in which the writer was still required to comment on the subject, full disclosure will be provided in the article.[60]
