GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

---

Let's-a go:

1. Is it well written?

   A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:

   Although there were a few grammatical errors that I had to correct. When reviewing an article, I like to take care of small things like this myself rather than waiting.

   B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:

2. Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?

   A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:

   Converting the references (they are almost all websites) to the cite web template would be a good idea.

   B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):

   C. It contains no original research:

   D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:

3. Is it broad in its coverage?

   A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:

   B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):

4. Is it neutral?

   It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:

5. Is it stable?

   It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:

6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?

   A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:

   I think these rules are stupid, but this article obeys them. I don't think the one of Shigeru Miyamoto needs a fair use resolution; I saw that it was a verified Flickr image.

   B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:

7. Overall:

   Pass or Fail:

   Good work, Guest9999. This wouldn't pass an FAC how it is now, but I think it is worthy to be a GA. Tezkag72^{私にどなる}_{私のはかい} 17:42, 12 January 2009 (UTC)
