Voyage: Inspired by Jules Verne[edit]

Hi everyone. I belive, that after more than a year of documenting this particular product, that this article is of the utmost standard. I believe that it is worthy of feature article status. The text is concise and factually accurate. The presentation is clean, but not overly cluttered. And I hope that you also view this article in the same way. However, if you have a problem with the article, you can always list it here so that i can strive to make it even more perfect in the coming weeks. --Paaerduag 12:04, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

  • Object: first of all, no references are given. In addition, the article does not seem to tell us much about what kind of game it; it starts with "is a PC game that uses the increasingly popular node based point and click system etc", but node points to a disambiguation page. The content of the Overview section should not be in a section, but form the basis for a Lead section. Schutz 14:27, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. No references, reads too much like a fan, nothing about history of development, history of release, sales figures, why it is notable within the gaming community, large blocks of not terribly brilliant prose, lead unclear. Batmanand | Talk 15:00, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose No references, sounds like a commercial pitch in places, hardly anything on the background of the product, nothing on why it is significant, poor formatting of writing. Wikipedia is not a game guide. Bwithh 17:32, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Not a bad article, but the The Investigation section needs to be split up into a couple of paragraphs...its too long.Osbus 22:42, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. In addition to the points already outlined above, we need to remember to keep our articles comprehensive. While this article certainly does cover the storyline and characters well, it doesn't have any information about the game itself. How well has it sold?, where has it been sold?, how was it developed?, etc. In addition, some of your words are a bit vague; "increasingly popular" and "It should appeal" seem like they could use some research for solid facts to back up and make more relevant these generalizations. Best of luck! — Rebelguys2 talk 23:27, 27 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
