- Inside Gaming Daily is not recognized as a reliable source. Can you elaborate upon their credentials?
- There were a *lot* of major issues with the text, including typos, grammatical errors, and even an instance where a sentence was written twice in the same paragraph. There were also a number of capitalization inconsistencies, and also inconsistencies between player and players.
- "GameZone noted that how accurate the physics of the game." - I'm not sure what this sentence says.
My main concern is that I found enough problems that I feel I could reasonably have quickfailed the article due to the sheer number of issues that suggest the article may not have seen a copyedit prior to being submitted. I don't really like quickfailing things unless it's insurmountable, however, so I'll give you some time to go over the article and address any potential errors. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 18:07, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
- @Abryn: I fixed some grammar issues. But I didn't find as many grammar issues as I was hoping to find. Grammar is not my strong suit, so if you see any specific sentences that are off, let me know. It can take me a month of re-reads to suddenly find the issue if I do it on my own. I fixed the GameZone review to elaborate on it. I'm not sure if the current or older version of Inside Gaming was reliable because the original website no longer exists and it's now under new management (Rooster Teeth). What I can find is Jason Jasicki's own credentials [1]. If it's not considered reliable, I can still remove it.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 21:14, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
- I understand, though some of the issues are those I've already addressed, such as a sentence that repeats itself in the same paragraph. As far as IGD, it seems like its reliability is inconclusive. I'd keep it and then raise a discussion about it on WP:VG/RS. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 21:22, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
- @Abryn:I re-read the article. I think I just addressed the sentence you are referring to. But if i'm mistaken, can you point it out. If it's not the one I addressed, is it the release information section? I know that can sound confusing because the base game and DLCs between consoles and regions are off by just a day.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 21:36, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
- I mean this text, which I removed before my review notes: " The camera position can be moved using the right analog stick and music tracks can be changed using the D-pad.[1] Players can tilt the stage using the left analog stick or using Sixaxis motion controls for the PlayStation 3 version.[2] The camera position can be moved using the right analog stick and music tracks can be changed using the D-pad.[1]"

- Oh thank you. I must be having an off-day. I read that paragraph like 20 times. I'll fix that right away.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 21:49, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
- Oh nevermind, it was already addressed. well, thank you again. Let me know if there are new issues or remaining issues in the article.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 21:51, 4 September 2019 (UTC)
- All right, issues dealt with. Sorry if I came off like a jerk, by the way. As far as IGD, that can stay until the discussion figures things out. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 01:11, 6 September 2019 (UTC)
