Checking against GA criteria

[edit]
GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    The lead does not adequately summarise the article, see WP:LEAD
    There is an undue use of promotional and POV language.
    The is a mixture of inline hyperlinks and citations.
    The prose is not very good, not "reasonably well written".
    Not well organised, information needs to be presented logically. Please read WP:MoS and subpages.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    What makes GameFAQs and Revfans reliable sources?
    Most of the sources are WP:Primary sources. This needs good third party sources.
    Wikipedia can not be used as a source.
    There is no sourcing for game releases in the Games section.
    Sources used for citations are also present in the external links section which is not permitted, see WP:EL
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    No mention of sales figures; no real indication of whether this company meets the WP:CORP guidelines.
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
    Appears overly promotional
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
    stable
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
    The specific source of the image needs to be provided.
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    Shoddily put together, please read the good article criteria and make sure that this article meetrs them before renominating. Jezhotwells (talk) 22:06, 6 October 2011 (UTC)[reply]
