Suggestions

[edit]

Initial Observations

[edit]
  • Redundant use of Bullet hell elements in the Gameplay section
    • Radirgy is a vertically scrolling shoot 'em up with bullet hell elements in the first paragraph and The game features bullet hell gameplay elements, in the second. It does feel a bit odd there and copywriting might help.
      • Fixed
  • No inline citation in the lead section. You can use some already present references or maybe add new references. (suggestion only)
    • See below

I will have a deeper look soon. Thanks! Yashovardhan (talk) 08:15, 13 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Notes

[edit]
  • The lead section should establish the notability of the article. It should discuss very briefly why the game is notable. Here, It's full of the history instead.
    • I believe the lead does establish notability. It is not a full history, that is detailed in the release section. I summarized each part of the article into the lead giving due weight when necessary. The most notable part of this game is it's release history, so that needs to be highlighted up front. If you have specific suggestions on how the lead can be improved, please suggest.
  • A history section would be appropriate to discuss the history of the article. The release may be merged in that section (or as a subsection). However, the lead should not go too much into the history.
    • The only history of the game I could find was the release history. This game was only released in Japan so finding sources is very difficult. If you can find any, please let me know. As for the lead, see above comment.
  • There are only 3 source for reception. Though not necessary, more reviews would help and you may find some more content as well.
    • These were all the reviews I could find. Again, this is an obscure Japan-only release. If you can find any more, please let me know.
  • The gameplay section could see copy writing, it presently seems a bit too detailed. A concise gameplay summary is helpful rather than going into all the details. The rest may be discussed in a separate plot section.
    • I gave the section a copy edit to remove some of the details. Since the plot is short and not central to the game, I combined it into the gameplay section. It is acceptable to do this per WP:VGORDER.
  • The lead section needs more citations
    • I disagree. It's not customary for lead sections to have citations unless there are quotes or controversial content that needs a citation. See any recent Good or Featured articles. This is because everything in the lead is based upon what is written in prose and cited there, which it is in this article.

Will put it on hold for you to work on these. Let me know if you think of anything else. Yashovardhan (talk) 06:23, 18 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

@Yashovardhan Dhanania: Thank you for reviewing this article. I have addressed all your comments above. TarkusAB 02:59, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]
@TarkusAB: thanks for fixing it so fast. My suggestion for the lead section was based on WP:VGORDER. However, you've a good point there. I'll accept this as GA! Good work! Yashovardhan (talk) 04:55, 19 April 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Additional notes

[edit]
  1. ^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
  2. ^ Either parenthetical references or footnotes can be used for in-line citations, but not both in the same article.
  3. ^ This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
  4. ^ Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
  5. ^ Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
  6. ^ The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
