GA nomination?

edit

Would anyone object if I nominated this for GA status? I’d guide it though the process if I could! Judgesurreal777 (talk) 22:33, 6 June 2020 (UTC)Reply

@ProtoDrake: another one of yours I believe, you added most of this articles content, may I nominate? Judgesurreal777 (talk) 16:40, 20 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Given how little material there is in reception at the moment, and the fact that most of the content is still pre-release, no. I may get round to it some time in the near future, but at the moment I've got a GAN in progress. And what's begun to seem like a full rewrite of Romancing SaGa. Plus life. --ProtoDrake (talk) 17:33, 20 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Excellent, thanks for clearing that up! Great work on Live a Live, I might have presents for that article in the next month or two :) Judgesurreal777 (talk) 17:51, 20 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Yup, this is another Serge-creation, ProtoDrake rewrite that is in good GA shape. We need to collaborate more, PD. I think it’s ready. Sergecross73 msg me 21:16, 20 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Well I just suggested it, you two are in the drivers seat, if either of you want it nominated I suppose you could, though as ProtoDrake says their are things to improve. I personally think they could be improved during the GA process, but that’s just my thought. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 01:52, 21 June 2020 (UTC)Reply
Whoops, I was in a rush and didn’t see ProtoDrakes answer. Sorry, wasn’t trying to push against his stance. My content creation time is limited as well, and this article probably isn’t on the docket any time soon. I support anyone going for it, but I won’t be in the drivers seat personally.

Final comments

edit

@ProtoDrake: The review will be on hold for a week. Once the issues get addressed, I'll promote the article to GA status. Most of the article is well-sourced, but as noted in the review, some parts of the Gameplay section fail verification, so try to find more sources that back up that content up. --Vacant0 (talkcontribs) 18:29, 26 July 2024 (UTC)Reply

@Vacant0: Done my best to address everything above. Cut down the jargon, corrected some plain-wrong information, added trans-titles, replaced Destructoid. --ProtoDrake (talk) 21:14, 26 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
Looks good now, promoting. Vacant0 (talkcontribs) 23:31, 26 July 2024 (UTC)Reply
