Space Station Silicon Valley

[edit]

Improved to Good Article status by Rhain (talk). Self-nominated at 13:19, 11 April 2016 (UTC).

  • Article promoted to GA status on April 10, long enough, neutral, has inline citations, no copyvio detected, QPQ done. Hooks are interesting, cited and neutral. The original hook needs a citation at the end of the sentence. For ALT1, the reviewer said the game "maybe the most original game to hit Nintendo 64" ("maybe" seems to be a typo for "may be"). That changes the meaning a little bit, because there is some uncertainty. I suggest changing ALT1 to reflect this. Random86 (talk) 06:46, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
@Random86: I've added the word "maybe" to ALT1. Why does the original hook need a citation at the end of the sentence? The applicable reference is placed at the end of the following sentence, which is commonplace when both sentences use the same source. – Rhain 06:52, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
  • @Rhain: The rules state "Each fact in the hook must be supported in the article by at least one inline citation to a reliable source, appearing no later than the end of the sentence(s) offering that fact." Random86 (talk) 06:58, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
@Random86: Thanks, I must have overlooked that rule—it's never come up before. I've added the reference. – Rhain 07:16, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
  • All three hooks are now good to go. Random86 (talk) 07:27, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
  • Hi, I came by to promote this, and ALT2 caught my eye, but I don't see this information in the sources. They say nothing about "entering the animal's body"; it only seems a matter of control, that first you disable the animal and then you gain control over its movements. If this needs to be tweaked, please do so in the article as well. Thanks, Yoninah (talk) 14:44, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
@Yoninah: Awkward wording on my part. I've made the change to the article and the hook. – Rhain 20:52, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
  • Thanks. Restoring tick per Random86's review. Yoninah (talk) 21:00, 2 May 2016 (UTC)
