GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

First GA review in many years! In any case, there are some things that stand out while reading the article and looking at the prose that I have outlined below in my review. They need to be addressed before I'm comfortable passing for GA.

  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
    See below for a list of specific issues.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):
    In the "Development and Release" section, "it ultimately was never released" is unreferenced.
Uh....... yeah. The fact that no other citation exists of the NES game actually being released is a citation itself it was never released. It's pretty frequent for articles about projects that went nowhere to do this. HumanxAnthro (talk) 21:18, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  1. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    Good amount of coverage for both in the 1990s (print, which is hard to find) and comtemporary.
    Thanks! It was tricky. You can use Internet Archive, retromags and MobyGames to look for online showings of print sources for video games easier. However, at the same time, I can't tell how many times results come up that isn't coverage of the game you're looking for but just a fricking listing at a store.

  2. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  3. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  4. 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):
  5. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
GA #1 issues
Overall

 On hold So that the above issues can be addressed. --MuZemike 17:06, 14 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
