[edit] WP:VG Assessment

Some very general pointers:

  • Wikipedia is not a game guide. This article is, and therefore some information should be removed. Delete the list in the community section, and move the community section to the introduction. It's too short. Delete 'types of power ups' list. The gameplay section is clearly a game guide, because it continuously addresses the reader as 'you'. Please change - see the gameplay section of Tetris for a good example on how to write that for such a type of game. Done to the best of my knowledge. --PostScript 19:47, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • There are no references at all. Use <ref>{{cite web}}</ref>, which will display in a <references/> section. Search Wikipedia for more help on references. Note that a lack of references might show that the game is not notable enough. (WP:N) Done, but you're right, it still needs more. --PostScript 20:21, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • The following sections miss: Reception and Development. See some featured articles in WP:VG on what to do with those sections. I didn't find sources for these as the game is relatively new. --PostScript 20:21, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • The lead section is too short. (WP:LS) Done. --PostScript 19:47, 17 March 2007 (UTC)
  • From reading the article I've got no idea what the game is. Maybe an image will be good to clear that up. Done. --PostScript 19:25, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

When you have fixed these, please don't ask for an assessment again, but submit it for peer review. The more in-depth comments you'll need then are not what assessment is intended for.

Rating not changed - still stub, doesn't contain enough references to be start.

Sorry for wasting your time, and thank you for the advice. --PostScript 20:21, 17 March 2007 (UTC)

Any assessment which is acted upon by an editor is a good one, and never is wasted time. Some more ideas now that you've edited:
  • The nature of the game leads me to believe that an animated gif image would be awesome. This isn't a requirement, but would be very neat to have. I've personally no idea how to make them, I've only seen them.
  • The gameplay section is much better now. Well done. I think this could be a very good article once some more reviews and sources pop up. One needs the sources to be able to write more about it.
Increased rating. The fact that it's a game for Macs made me give it a Low importance instead of none, and also that it seems to be innovative.

Gocha, I'm working on how to make an animated gif image. --PostScript 11:17, 18 March 2007 (UTC)
