MarioWiki:Featured articles/N1/Yoshi's Island DS

Support

 * 1) The article has lots of well-written, and detailed information; has quality images in it; and the story isn't written poorly unlike some previous games.

Oppose

 * 1) I've read the story and it was actually horribly written. There was way too much passive tense (and there was abuse of the word "after", it didn't flow very well, the terrible linking, and other minor ones. Luckily, I fixed that in the jiffy. But in the rest of the article, I immediately found punctuation errors (colon misuse and comma errors) and passive voice overuse. Active should be used more: technically, both are correct but passive is usually used for style and emphases while active tense is clearer to understand. An informative wiki prefers the latter tense. I'd do more if I didn't have other stuff in my agenda....

 * Is anyone going to be working on the enemies? I don't want to cut into other people's work, because I'm very tempted to add that table now.

In theory a table sounds like a good idea. But assuming that we were to include the sprites of the enemy/boss, what will we do in the case of large sprites, like this freakshow. I don't think it would look great if a certain row was ten times taller than some. And I imagine it would be the same case with the bosses as well. 03:21, 24 April 2013 (EDT)
 * I don't think we'd need to include the sprites, seeing as New Super Mario Bros is featured and doesn't have them. And Lefty, Super Mario Bros isn't featured.
 * I think we can resize the sprites as in Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story article, and the resizing doesn't screw up the design badly either. In New Super Mario Bros.'s case, we don't have sprites for the enemy/boss because a whole deal of these enemies are models, and you can't really rip frames for models unless you screencapture on DSEm and crop it. If the game is based on sprites, then I strongly encourage the article for the game to provide sprites for the enemy in the enemy section. Still, at least New Super Mario Bros. provides a table describing each enemy and boss briefly, so that's why I mentioned it.
