Assessment

[edit]

This is obviously not stub class anymore. However, there are huge amounts of things to consider. Firstly, the plot needs to be vastly trimmed. The Reception needs to be expanded, and a Development section needs to be created. The images in the "gallery" section needs to be changed to low-res. (smaller) to fit fair-use criteria, as well as integrated into the article as descriptive images.

And most importantly: THIS ARTICLE NEEDS REFERENCES. That shows the topic's notability as well as citing the article's statements. Also, they need to be formatted correctly: <ref>{{citeweb|url=|title=|author=|publisher=|date=|accessdate=}}</ref> --haha169 (talk) 03:32, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Are those references all from forums? No, that will not do. See WP:V. If you don't establish the article's notability, it could be sent to WP:AfD. --haha169 (talk) 03:36, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Also, see what I have done to the first image in the gallery, and imitate it. That should get rid of any fair-use issues. --haha169 (talk) 03:39, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
If I don't establish the article's notability, it could be deleted? That has to be one of the stupidest things I have ever read on Wikipedia. You've sucked out any enthusiasm I had for Wikipedia, so well done Haha169. This really *was* a waste of time, I may as well of posted something similiar on the Basilisk Forums which I think I'll do instead. Thank you. Learner Jedi (talk) 11:55, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
And that edit you made to the image, you can hardly read it which was the whole damn point of it! Learner Jedi (talk) 12:35, 7 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I'm sorry. If you dislike Wikipedia's policies, then go play on a blog. There are serious copyright concerns on Wikipedia, and copyvios will not be tolerated. Also, Wikipedia is not a random collection of random things, so notability must be established in order to merit an article. Remember that Wikipedia is non-profit, and it cannot afford to buy memory to hold non-notable articles.--haha169 (talk) 18:44, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]


Spoiler

[edit]

The description of the plot contains many spoilers of course. But this also shows up on some Google search summaries. Is there a way to avoid that? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 85.211.122.30 (talk) 01:44, 25 October 2010 (UTC)[reply]
