MarioWiki:Featured articles/N1/Mario Sports Mix

Support

 * 1) I'm no fanboy or something, but this article is pretty good. It has quite a lot of details and images, absolutely no red links (at the moment), and it's pretty colorful. It's a pleasure for the eyes. Indeed, I never played Mario Sports Mix (just for the people who called me a 'fanboy' on my last SMG2 proposal) and I quite like this article. I support featuring it.

Oppose

 * No, I'm still under heavy work in this article. For example, I'm planning to construct a table for the items and a table for the characters, as every character has unique abilities and power shots in the game. We can also list the unlockable conditions; there are no methods of unlocking certain stuff included in the article and I find it necessary. The "story" of this game is also excluded: 4 crystals fall from the sky at the beginning of the game and near the end, the crystals form to make a fat, evil purple crystal that turns into Behemoth. And then, major rewriting can be done in each of the sports' descriptions: it's pretty bare bones about the subject and I find they can use more description. The intro can also be longer; it's too short.
 * 1) Per BabyLuigiOnFire
 * 2) It just got released in the USA. I think a lot more things can be added to the article.
 * 3) Per my comments and BabyLuigiOnFire.
 * 4) This has potential for being featured, but for now, I sadly have to oppose per reasons above. Let's see if we all can follow through on BLOF's suggestions before another "featured article" attempt takes place in the future.
 * 5) Per my comments.
 * 6) I bought the game yesterday,and there is a lot of stuff in it that I cant find in the article or articles relating to the subject.
 * 7) Per BLOF and all. The article gave lots of great info, just feed Ridley more information first.
 * 8) - Per BLOF, MeritC and Fawfulfury.
 * 9) The article needs an intro section (there is a point in the game where something crashes in Mushroom Kingdom and the Toads discover it). The article can use more in-depth information here.
 * 10) Per all.
 * 11) Per all.
 * 12) Per all.
 * 13) This article looks WAY better and all, but let everyone else, it is still a young article, and could use much more touch-ups throughout the page.
 * 14) Per all.

Comments
@Mario Fan 123: You don't have to make a proposal to feature an article, just put it in your vote. Anyways, this article is OK, but it needs a better introduction and I spotted a few grammar errors around it. I'll fix the ones I can find.
 * I'm with Fawfulfury, since I really do like the design of this page (especially the character section) but it still needs some touch-ups.
 * Agreed; hence our discussion on our respective user talk pages. If anything, the "Playable Characters" section would benefit the most since we would place all information in relation to them on one chart, which also would include their statistics.
 * Per the comments above. The intro is very poor and it needs more information and more additions.--
 * You still can edit it, can't you? "Little less conversation and little more acting", please. ;) --
 * Okaaayyy, but we're just listing these problems the article has so that others are aware of them and will try to improve the article, so not just me does all the work (though it would be nice, ok, I'm a bit selfish, whatever, lalala, go ahead).

Okay, just to give a heads up, the character table is constructed, unlockables are ensured in the article, sports rewritten, and it's nearly complete. The only thing now is needed is what happens at the beginning of the tournament, where the four crystals fall from the sky and several Toads investigate it. I feel that part is very vital. Same thing where your character puts the crystals in the Star Ship.

I would support this, but I have to agree with BLOF. I say we wait till the article is done, then feature it.
 * Well, I and some others have worked really hard on this article, and I think it is done. Any more recommendations for information? I'll add it if it is necessary. Otherwise, I consider it viable for featuring! I need to remove my oppose vote soon as everybody knows what has been done to this article.
