Checking against GA criteria

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)
