Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy[edit]

Nominator(s): Tezkag72 (talk) 16:18, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured article because after a GAN, a long-running peer review, and about a month of me not really doing anything due to a lack of time, I believe the article meets the criteria. Tezkag72 (talk) 16:18, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Otherwise, sources look okay, links checked out with the link checker tool. Ealdgyth - Talk 18:55, 11 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Comment The short paragraph at the start of the reception section looks out of place, as if you couldn't stick that information in anywhere else. Could it not be expanded to include the various platforms, thus making it look like a proper section? Also, it would make the long chain of citation numbers break up. -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 01:14, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Done. Thanks for coming by. Tezkag72 (talk) 21:12, 18 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Support. Looks far better. I'll support this fine article. -- EA Swyer Talk Contributions 00:47, 20 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

More comments when I get the chance. --Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 12:26, 15 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • Player characters' health appears as four hearts on the game's heads-up display; characters die when these hearts are depleted, and a small amount of Lego studs—small, disk-shaped objects that serve as the game's currency—bounce away. However, the character instantly reappears, and the studs can be recollected. - Hard to follow
  • Each film is split into six levels, and the game features bonus levels. - It is not clear why the films are being referred to at this point.
  • One power brick is hidden in each level, and collecting them makes extras available for purchase, such as invincibility and stud multipliers. - Unclear - this makes it sound like invincibility and multipliers are bricks.
  • This was the day before the DVD release of the uncut original trilogy. - This fact seems a bit random.

Let me know when the article has been copyedited again and I'll reread it. I look forward to fully supporting the article soon.Awadewit (talk) 23:54, 13 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

  • The article was copyedited by JimmyBlackwing as he saw fit to support it. Also, it seems like you already corrected these things. Tezkag72 (talk) 23:10, 14 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article may have been copyedited already, but that doesn't mean all reviewers agree that the prose is of FA quality - I obviously still see some issues. I didn't correct the above problems - did someone else? Awadewit (talk) 02:51, 15 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Support. I copyedited all but the reception section (which is likely still due for one). A few small points:

Comment Two links are dead. Dabomb87 (talk) 04:01, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Those links went dead recently, and at least one of them is available at archive.org, and they are sparsely used -- but please update them. I could have updated the one I checked at archive.org, but I noted that it has no accessdate (!), so that should also be supplied when it is updated.
