Review section
[edit]As noted on the article's talk page, a number of the sources used in this one are marked as either unreliable or inconclusive at WP:VGRS, including some used heavily. Needs some significant work to improve the sourcing, but it should be doable if someone has access to better sourcing. Hog Farm Talk 02:18, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- A less important issue but I wonder if the plot summary (775 words) is bloated? There's no recommended length for video games but it seems longer than others I've seen. (t · c) buidhe 11:40, 20 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- WP:VG/PLOT recommends 700 words as a loose max length, but with an understanding that games where the plot is central might be longer, while games where the plot is irrelevant can be much shorter. Presumably the plot is pretty important to a mystery game rather than a Mario-style platformer, so I think the current length is acceptable, although a very minor trim might be reasonable.

- I cut the plot down to 693 words. (Did not make an attempt at fixing the sourcing issue, though.) SnowFire (talk) 16:19, 26 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC - the major concern here is the sourcing, which has not been improved. Hog Farm Talk 13:47, 27 October 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC, 2007 FA with significant sourcing issues, only one edit (SnowFire's) since FAR began. SandyGeorgia (Talk) 16:59, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
- Move to FARC If bloated sentences like this are in the article, definitely time for this article to be rechecked: "Murder on the Orient Express received some praise for graphical improvements over its predecessor. Among the aspects of the game which received positive reactions were the game's environments" 👨x🐱 (RenamonxKrystal) 23:18, 1 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]
