Family Feud (Australian game show)[edit]

This peer review discussion has been closed.
I've listed this article for peer review because I'd like to improve the article but need to know where to start!

Hello, I am fairly new to editing so I am probably not much use but I did find another game show article which might be a good template for you to work from - The Chase (U.S. game show). The obvious issue, with the Family Feud article, is references but the content seems fairly good to me (if it can be backed up with sources). Give me a shout if you want any help with it though I am no use at being able to review! ツStacey (talk) 13:44, 11 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • The tag about unclear references is definitely correct and a chief issue with the article as it currently stands. The entire gameplay section is evidently unsourced.
  • Aside from needing sources, the gameplay section seems overly long. We as readers aren't playing, so I don't think we need to know every single rule; it starts getting bogged down in minor asides about when family members talk to each other. This might be something addressed by the sourcing; if some of the content can't be sourced, it should clearly be removed.
  • Aside from the issues of references, the other main issue is that the vast majority of the article is repeating content that would probably apply to every Family Feud spinoff. Anything about the development of this version of the show, and its reception, are the most important pieces, and are crucially virtually missing aside from a single line. Given that this version of the show appeared in 2014, it should be fairly easy to find web-based references for it.
  • To echo Stacey above, I do think looking at other game shows will suggest what types of information are available and should be covered.

If you have any followup, I don't follow old peer reviews. Give me a ping at my talk page, instead. Thanks, Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs(talk) 15:53, 9 January 2015 (UTC)[reply]
