[edit] Her shirt and glasses

The article fails to mention that her frog design shirt and round glasses on top of her head are also a homage to another japanese anime character unfortunately i forgot his name.

Unless it's just painfully obvious that it's an homage, it may be WP:OR. If you remember though, be sure to let me know.--SeizureDog 04:40, 25 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Comments for Good Article reviewers

  • Yes, the article is short, but there is not much to say about a fighter that's been in only two and a half games.
  • Not many references, but there's not much that requires citing. If you disagree, I encourage you to add {{fact}} tags rather than just state that it needs more.
  • Gameplay is purposely kept short, as I don't want it to turn into a movelist/game guide.--SeizureDog 02:40, 15 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA review

I am going to put this article on hold it for the time being. The article is pretty comprehensive for a short article, but I have a couple concerns.

  • As GA reviewer, I'm not supposed to edit the article, so I can't add fact tags, but it could use a couple sources. The in-game history section has no citations at all. As well, the voice actor should have a citation.
  • The Game appearances section should be prosified

Other than that, the article is looking pretty good. Once those concerns are addressed, contact me and I'll re-evaluate it. Thanks for your work on the article so far. -- Scorpion 15:59, 24 February 2007 (UTC)

  • You can still edit the article. You're just not supposed to review articles that you worked heavily on. It should not stop you from correcting minor mistakes. Anyways, the game appearances list follows the MOS of lists of works in addition to the fact that it's already in prose in the lead. I've never seen a voice actor have to be cited, since it's pretty obvious where the information would be obtained (the credits). Story sections only need citations if it's controversial in any way. For example: The Legend of Zelda: The Wind Waker's story section (a FA) is much longer and contains zero cites, while Final Fantasy X does have a couple for the parts that fans might debate or question. --SeizureDog 00:52, 3 March 2007 (UTC)
    • Fair enough, I'm convinced. As a veteran of trying to get TV related stuff promoted, I should say that the "It's in the game/show" argument doesn't work as well as it should, but oh well. I grant this article GA status. -- Scorpion 01:04, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Talk show host

This article is going to have to be moved to make room for an up and coming talk show host called May Lee. I don't know enough to start the Wikipedia article, but here is an article I found about her. --Grace 05:51, 17 May 2007 (UTC)

Noted and done.--SeizureDog 04:35, 7 August 2007 (UTC)

  • Support Never heard of May Lee the video girl. (Wikimachine 00:52, 4 September 2007 (UTC))
  • Support - No great controversy here. PC78 00:55, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Support the move but make this page a disambiguation page. --Kusunose 02:29, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
    • Comment Per Google search [1], the video game character is definitely not one of the primary meanings of "May Lee" (doesn't even appear in the first 60 hits), whereas the top two are about the journalist and her new talk show. A hatlink (like the one at the top of User:CaliforniaAliBaba/May Lee) should be sufficient.cab 03:37, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
      • I don't why but for me, there appeared video game character related pages in the first page of Google search result you provided. --Kusunose 08:08, 4 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Support and agree with Cab on the linking. –Ulla— 07:41, 4 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Maylee-p.jpg

Image:Maylee-p.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

[edit] Delisted

I have delisted this because it lacks an appropriate amount of real world information (the stuff here could fit in a list entry), it contains quite a bit of OR, and it lacks sources. TTN 01:53, 10 November 2007 (UTC)
