Voyage: Inspired by Jules Verne[edit]

Thank you everyone for your useful tips for improving my page. I have moved the old feature article candidate debate to the archives because this is a new submission, which relates to my improved article. I would like it if you can see whether or not it is worth feature article status, and if not provide reasons why. thank you once again. --Paaerduag 10:02, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]


comment - images need to comply with fair use conditions currently there this isnt the case <!-- FAIR USE of IMAGENAME.jpg: see image description page at http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:IMAGENAME.jpg for rationale --> needs to be add to the article for each image then the rationale for use needs to add to the image discription pageGnangarra 15:24, 30 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Object primarily for the lack of references and inline citations (WP:FOOTNOTEs). The first sentence of the first section is already weak - "During the course of Voyage, the main character Michel Ardan must piece together a mystery which transpired before he regained consciousness." - which transpired before he regained consciousness? There is no mention beforehands about him becoming unconscious. Thanks, AndyZ t 01:27, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Object, mainly due to lack of references, which I see were a common complaint at the last FAC but have not been addressed. Images need fair use rationale, and there is too much emphasis on the plot and in-game concepts. It looks like the article needs more wikilinks, and some existing links are to redirects or dab pages.

  • Note from author, you obviously feel very strongly about my article being not up to scratch. thanks for your tips, but it is all a bit overwhelming. please don't hold it against me personally, but i thought i had done the best i could. obviously for you people, it just ain't good enough. --Paaerduag 07:28, 31 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Paaerduag, I'm sorry you're disappointed. Please do take a look at Peer review and consider listing your page there first, for more readers' comments. I think/I hope you'd find it useful. It's easier to improve a page with input from others than on your own, as we all tend to look on our own work with the eyes of love and pride. Good luck!
