I've listed this article for peer review because it desperately needs to be cleaned up. Only issue is, there's no list criteria so basically an character can be added to the page.

Comments from Panini!
[edit]- The biggest issue with this page is that there are hardly any sources. Back up as much as you can, and if you can't find something for a claim its deemed unnecessary to mention and can be removed.
- As for your character query, it also depends on sources too. For example, the "Poodaboo"; there's nothing to note about these guys except for people writing about them on fan wikis, so it doesn't really pass the inclusion criteria barrier for notability. Same applies for the other ones; if there's nothing talking directly about the character or enemy in question, as in reception and development, and you can't even source in-universe information, it shouldn't be there. Although Characters of Halo is being GA reassessed, its a good basic example of what the character entries should look like. Most of the characters have additional development and evolution info, as well as critical reception. You also keep in line what gets included at List of Roblox games (thanks for patrolling), and similar guidlines for inclusion should apply here.
I'm short on time right now, so I will be back in the future when I can get into specific details and lend a hand directly. Panini!🥪 14:21, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
- Thanks Panini! I might base the list criteria for the article off of both List of Roblox games and Characters of Halo. ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:02, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
- Probably just List of Roblox games because it has a list criteria. ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 15:13, 7 October 2021 (UTC)
- Blaze The Wolf, I've rewritten the Mario portion. If you're nervous evry piece of this list is gonna look like this section, let me calm your nerves; Mario is one of the most important and influential video game characters of all time, so of course there's gonna be a lot to say. Other characters, like Waluigi, wont have this large of text, hopefully. You can use this portion as an example, but keep in mind I only added four-level subheaders because there was so much prose it needed something to break it up. Other characters in this list will probably only have one or two paragraphs and don't need them. Panini!🥪 16:59, 11 October 2021 (UTC)
- I'm not actually nervous. I simply just have no idea how to fix it. ― Blaze The WolfTalkBlaze Wolf#6545 18:31, 11 October 2021 (UTC)

@Blaze The Wolf: I am going to close this PR because there are cleanup banners at the top of the article. When these are resolved, you can open a new PR for additional comments if you wish. if you are looking for additional sources, I recommend WP:LIBRARY which has multiple databases for sources. Google Scholar is another great resource, or looking for books and databases in your local library system. Z1720 (talk) 00:44, 8 November 2021 (UTC)
