GA Review[edit]

  • Link "September 1, 2004[1]" in the infobox if dates are to be linked in this article.
  • "novels; The" → "novels: The"
  • "centers of the family" → "centers around the family"
  • "the Myst franchise, and" → "the Myst franchise, and"
  • "Myst co-creators Rand and Robyn Miller were always creating their own worlds and stories as young children." → "Myst co-creators Rand and Robyn Miller often created fictional worlds and stories as young children." – because I don't think they literally did it "all the time" (always), and to specify that they are fictional
  • A few more minor prose issues in the article. The above was from the beginning; I also found "Reception to the Myst novels have been mixed." – "reception" is singular, so "have" should be "has".

All the above fixed. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 00:41, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Still some more. Probably needs another run through :) For instance:
  • "Marrim, will be released on a date. A preview" – what date?
  • "Also giving the novel a mediocre score was Albert Kim of Entertainment Weekly," – probably would be better if it was active; "Albert Kim of Entertainment Weekly also gave the novel a mediocre score,"
  • "After Writing new Ages, " – "After writing new Ages, "?

You don't have to go right through, I'll give it a copyedit and then leave you a note to save your time. Just leaving notes to meself :)Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 00:48, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Atrus. Atrus is raised" → "Atrus. He is raised"
  • "Age, Inception because" → "Age, Inception, because"
  • I think that's all I could find. Otherwise, it's pretty good – especially considering half of this article is like a story book :p
