Wikipedia:Peer review/Mega Man Zero series/archive1

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Would like much critisism on making this article up to featured status, or at the very least Good Article status. Basic Information citations are there, but could use some elaboration and perking-up. Any comments are welcomed and would be quite helpful. Also please see the talkpage for more proposed ideas: here. -ZeroTalk 05:12, 8 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Just some random comments:
  • Avoid specific numbers if they aren't important. "Three Cyber Elves", "Three element chips"...
  • The lead should be expanded.
  • How does the series differ from the other Mega Man series, particularly X, particularly in terms of the plot?
  • "unaware of his and X's past..." Explain this. Seriously. In fact...
  • Give some context to the article. Who Zero is, who X is, what things are the same from the other series, things like that.
  • "But Elpizo is not all that he seems, as Zero soon discovers..." Discovers what? Don't write plot summaries like they would appear on the box. If Elpizo's mystical revelation isn't all that important, don't bother mentioning it at all. If it is, then please tell us what it is.
  • Last sentence in the notes: "the Zero Series is on hiatus, according to Capcom." Mention this somewhere else, as it seems sufficiently important to go into the article itself. Also, "series" doesn't get capitalized. suggestion: "After the release of MMZ4, Capcom announced it was putting the Zero series on hiatus". Statement also needs citing.
  • Needs more sections than just gameplay and plot. Anything on the importance or reception of the series?
  • Inline citations are basically a necessity for good citations, particularly if you're pointing to websites. For example, the release dates of the games should point to the notes that say you got them from GameFAQs.
Hope that helps. Nifboy 04:16, 10 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
