<del>#{{User|WigglyWiggler}} Per TheDarkStar. I support this not because of the time reason, but because there is only one piece of audio in the "media" section.</del><br>
#{{User|TheDarkStar}} There's a notice template on this page: {{tem|more media}}, meaning the page actually isn't qualified to be an FA.

#{{User|YoshiFlutterJump}} Looking at the comments, apparently the more media tag doesn't disqualify an FA by itself, and there's literally nothing else wrong with the article. Per the BJAODN proposal that Waluigi Time linked to, the basis that this unfeaturement is based on has nothing to do with the actual article's quality.
#{{User|TheDarkStar}} As the comments below have indicated, my reasoning was invalid. My apologies for that. This FA nomination is more BJAODN-worthy than anything, so it's a shame that there's already [[MarioWiki:BJAODN/Unfeature/Yoshi's Island DS|something exactly like that]].
#{{User|Obsessive Mario Fan}} Per the comments below and TheDarkStar.

::I always felt like that template was pretty iffy because it was post-humously mass-added to a lot of game articles because we didn't really focus on adding media at the time. I typically let it slide for that reason. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 15:57, July 19, 2019 (EDT)

Alright, I wanted to voice my own opinion on the matter.  I did some research on Featured Articles and found that [[Super Smash Bros.]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] both have {{tem|more media}} on them, as well as [[Mario Power Tennis]], and maybe others that I didn't look at.  Does this mean we should unfeature them too?  Not necessarily.  However, it would probably would benefit these articles and the Wiki as a whole if these requests were addressed properly.

:Almost all game articles have this template. It was post-humously mass-added to articles after a relatively recent proposal compared to their featuring. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 19:46, July 23, 2019 (EDT)

I was looking through the FA archives, and I found several FA nominations by {{user|Mariobros1985}}. They were cancelled after he was blocked, meaning it's possible for this FA nomination to be cancelled. Probably. {{User:TheDarkStar/sig}} 05:24, July 28, 2019 (EDT)
:Well, they were cancelled because it was an excessive amount of bad-faith, low quality nominations, while this one by itself is frankly harmless. Don't think we should end this article early though, since it's a fairly old featured article and it may have issues I didn't catch. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 22:44, August 4, 2019 (EDT)
@TheDarkStar, WigglyWiggler and Obssessive Mario Fan: The more media template should '''''not be taken into consideration''''' when it comes to featuring articles. As Baby Luigi has already described, it was added post-humously to articles after a recent proposal passed. As such, it's not taken into consideration. &ndash; [[User:Owencrazyboy9|Owencrazyboy9]] ([[User talk:Owencrazyboy9|talk]]) 13:28, August 5, 2019 (EDT)
:Yeah, I was thinking about that myself. It doesn't need to be taken into account for the reasons mentioned. Otherwise, we'd lose a lot of featured articles. That point is really meant for {{tem|construction}}, {{tem|rewrite}}, {{tem|stub}}, and the image templates. {{User:Alex95/sig}} 13:09, August 6, 2019 (EDT)
::Though for ''new'' featured articles after the introduction of the template, I think they need to address it before it can be featured. I feel like that's fair. {{User:Baby Luigi/sig}} 13:37, August 6, 2019 (EDT)
:::I definitely agree that {{tem|more media}} should only count for articles that aren’t already featured, since it was added to almost every game article after its creation, including several featured articles. --{{User:TheFlameChomp/sig}} 14:54, August 6, 2019 (EDT)
::::Makes sense, since it was added literal years after the article was featured. Changed my vote.{{User:TheDarkStar/sig}} 15:28, August 6, 2019 (EDT)
