Can we auto-generate this list by year from pages which are tagged with a set of categories, such as Category:Browser games and Category:1996 video games?

Should games such as "RoboRiders Game" include the word game in the title? I am beginning to think that the game should simply be titled "RoboRiders" and the article use parentheses to indicate it is a web/video game. This seems more accurate even to how such games were referred to at the time in e.g. press releases. Notable exception might be MNOG where the game is commonly referred to with "game" in the title.
Similarly, should we omit "LEGO" from the prefix of games such as LEGO World Builder/World Builder 2/LEGO Castle? I am thinking we should omit for consistency and seeing as this entire wiki is focused on LEGO content exclusively. Not as sure about e.g. LEGO Island Comic Adventures.

Naming conventions

Should games such as "RoboRiders Game" include the word game in the title? I am beginning to think that the game should simply be titled "RoboRiders" and the article use parentheses to indicate it is a web/video game. This seems more accurate even to how such games were referred to at the time in e.g. press releases. Notable exception might be MNOG where the game is commonly referred to with "game" in the title.

Similarly, should we omit "LEGO" from the prefix of games such as LEGO World Builder/World Builder 2/LEGO Castle? I am thinking we should omit for consistency and seeing as this entire wiki is focused on LEGO content exclusively. Not as sure about e.g. LEGO Island Comic Adventures.
