MarioWiki:Featured articles/Unfeature/N1/WarioWare, Inc.: Mega Microgame$!

Remove featured article status

 * 1) &mdash; This article is victim to failing the test of time. Looking back at the main characters table, a lot of rewriting is needed (plus, I just reformatted its layout coloring). Most of the descriptions of their stories are inaccurate, sounding mechanical, and short. Then there's this: when you look at the microgames section, you can see that character screens squish the names (located at Developer column), making them hard to see. Plus, there is a media request template right smack at the game's media section. There are lotsa music that you can find in the game! There is a lullaby rendition of WWIMM's main theme that can be accessed after the credit roll. TLDR: Main characters needs improvement in story descriptions; Too many images found in tables that are flashy thus putting less emphasis on the name; "More media" tag. I suggest a quick look-back by playing the game with your GBA, or the GBA-NSO emulator. And please remember to take notes.
 * 2) &mdash; Per PnnyCrygr. Firstly, the article has an inexcusable lack of media; a featured article about a game should have its own media page with all or nearly all of the game's music. Secondly, the vast majority of the text in this article - both the paragraphs in the Story and Gameplay sections and the descriptions for each row in the various tables - could be rewritten to be more straightforward and professional. Finally, on top of the poor formatting of the tables currently in the article, several sections (Other characters, Locations, and Objects) are almost nothing but a simple list, when they could each be expanded into tables with images and brief descriptions. At the very least, the Locations and Objects sections should have descriptions after each entry in the list, like the Other characters section. As it currently stands, this article has too many issues to remain featured.

Oh, we could probably help out with this, having played the game fairly recently in the wake of raocow doing an LP of it, of all things. In particular, you could probably fix the "Microgame category list squishing the names" either by using .GIF versions of the profile icons (something the gallery section is already requesting, mind you) or simply... Widening that particular column, so it can support 2 images. Don't know which solution would be easier overall. Also, uh, this is a mild one, but it's bugged us how there simply aren't icons for any of the bonus minigames, and it's not like those sprites haven't been ripped for awhile now. It's not the audio media stuff or fixing the character bios, but both of those would probably be a good start and are grievances we've noticed before this nomination even went live. 15:11, May 1, 2023 (EDT)
