GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar):   b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):  
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):   d (copyvio and plagiarism):  
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
  6. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  
  • Could you please update the infobox image's fair use information? Possibly provide a source.
  • Isn't it a bit weird to call Sue a new ghost when she first appeared in Ms. Pac-Man?
  • Atari Lynx manual does not clarify that the Power Pellet works in a similar fashion to the original Pac-Man.
  • I dunno if the line about ghosts in vehicles is really that valuable.
  • "Most trip sections end with a large sign saying "BREAK TIME" — jumping at certain points at the end of each section will award the player with bonus points." - This feels extraneous. At least cutting out the bonus point detail would be a good idea, I think. In general that certain objects give points feels like a detail that could be culled.
  • Looking at it, the source doesn't seem to corroborate the notion that the designer is known for Family Stadium.
  • Unless I'm misunderstanding, I can't seem to find in the source that describes Track & Field or explains the inspiration.
  • The article does not explain what "location testing" means. Should use something more obvious, like saying that it was tested in Yokohama. Also, link to Yokohama.
  • The regional art style differences is explained in both Gameplay and Development sections.
