GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

It is reasonably well written.
a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
"The Nintendo handheld is designed around allowing players to quickly get into or out of the game.[9]" - I am confused about the "about"
? reworded, see if it's clearer --Teancum (talk) 16:50, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

What is "Slave I"?
Y reworded --Teancum (talk) 16:50, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Who are Ewoks?
Y linked --Teancum (talk) 16:50, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Many links missing in this section (Chewbacca, Han Solo, etc)
? linked to these characters, but I would need to know specifics as to what else needs wikilinked. --Teancum (talk) 16:50, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
Ref 68 does not lead to any site
? There is no site to follow. Nintendo Power is a print-only magazine and I don't have access to the issue. --Teancum (talk) 16:50, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
In any event, that particular bit can be seen on Metacritic. I can replace it with an online source, if you want. —DAP388 (talk) 18:11, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
The concern is that it states December as against October 22. Were there multiple reviews of Nintedo Power? It would be nice if you would replace it, DAP.--GoP _T ^C _N 08:44, 12 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Use pp only for several pages
Y fixed --Teancum (talk) 16:50, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Inconsistent date style
Y fixed --Teancum (talk) 16:50, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects): b (focused):
It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias:
It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.:
It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
Overall: These issues hinder the article's promotion to GA status--GoP _T ^C _N 15:28, 11 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Pass/Fail:

Pass There is a minor issue regarding the Nintendo Power magazine. But as this is the only concern, I will promote this article. Regards.--GoP _T ^C _N 16:21, 12 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

If you want to take this to FAC in future: Prose needs to be simplified a bit for our general users, plot needs to be expanded if possible (I know it is remarked that the story is rather short and boring), the references should be high-quality, as the reviewers there are very nitpicky (for example, try remove the redundant references)--GoP _T ^C _N 16:30, 12 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
