GA Reassessment

Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch

I am putting this up for reassessment as issues have arised around GOP's ability to review articles. There has also been some issues around him promoting short stubs such as this one. As an aside I saw this when nominated and thought to myself this is not good enough, but didn't comment due to my relationship with GOP at the time. KnowIG (talk) 22:53, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Main issues are around 1 (b) in GAC. This is essentally a stub which yes is well written but only uses 6 sources. This can be resolved through a number of ways. Expanding the plot. Tell the story this is an encyclopedia and not a spoiler review website. Son talk about each scene. And development could briefly cover all the games in the series upto this point. Also the plot and the review in the lead need to be separated into separate paragraphs. The lead generally needs work as it is just three sentences. KnowIG (talk) 23:09, 4 March 2011 (UTC)

Yep, I was actually thinking about bringing this up for GAR myself, I was looking over it recently and was a bit disappointed with what I had done. A few notes about the information I have:

• I don't have a copy of the game unfortunately, and though I've tried to look for playthroughs, I can't seem to find a comprehensive plot overview. Lula 3D isn't really mainstream and garnered little coverage, I was pretty happy to have what I had. The plot that I described is literally the best I've found, and the clips I've seen from the game tend to emphasize that there really isn't too much more than that. I'll see if I can find a playthrough somewhere though, but so far it's been no dice. Remember that 3A allows for there to be shorter articles as the comprehensiveness requirement that goes along with FAs isn't present in this case, although I have to agree, not really to this point.
• With regards to the development, I really haven't been able to find too much on reliable sources. There's a reason most of the games are in the Lula games article-- I split this one out after I had enough reception and information to make it more than just a stub. Again, I'll try to look for some sources.
• I'll edit the lead, maybe put some specifics in the reception and add a bit to the plot.

I object to calling this a stub: just because there are only six reliable sources doesn't mean it can't be a quality article. That said, I'm going to be in the Carolinas for spring break and I'm going to have no access to the internet for at least a week. Can we hold off demotion until the 12th or 13th when I get back? If I don't respond to the concerns by then, I think it'd be fair to demote it. Nomader ^(Talk) 05:37, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Of course I'll hold. We all have other things to do outside of wikipedia. KnowIG (talk) 09:37, 5 March 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for holding, KnowIG, I'm back now. I'll see what I can do in the next couple of hours and I'll post here once I've looked around for more sources. Hopefully it ends up being more fruitful than previous searches. Nomader ^(Talk) 16:48, 13 March 2011 (UTC)
