MarioWiki:Featured articles/N3/Lakitu

Support

 * 1) A main part of the Mario Kart series, and has a good page with decent pictures.

Oppose

 * 1) Not the best writing. There is past tense (easily corrected), constant referrals to "he", but has absurd statements, ("Lakitu's egg-throwing skills are temporarily amplified to match those of the Yoshis"; "Thanks to the prosperity and fame of the Mario Kart series, Lakitu often takes up similar roles in other spin-offs."). Missing information from Dance Dance Revolution: Mario Mix, Mario Pinball Land, minor information from Mario Tennis games, Mario Party series (minigame appearances) The Official stats and information section is incomplete, and there is an empty section. Overall, the article has a few blemishes I am than capable of correcting.
 * 2) There is 2 rewrite templates on that page.
 * 3) Considering the whole page has a rewrite? No. Your reason for supporting also leads me to believe you're basing this off the character instead of writing quality...

@Randombob-omb4761: Really? That's your oppose? Those templates were added AFTER the nomination took place. 20:30, 28 June 2014 (EDT)
 * That doesn't really change the fact that there's a reason for there to be rewrites.--Vommack (talk) 14:30, 1 July 2014 (EDT)
 * It doesn't change anything, but the vote is useless. The article initially had no rewrite template. It then got nominated. I looked through the article and pointed out its flaws. Then somebody came and slapped two rewrite templates. THEN, people started complaining about that template being there. Basing your entire oppose vote on a little template that can be removed anytime, especially when it was added after my vote, is, frankly, lazy and not constructive. Considering how the process of removing oppose votes is fundamentally flawed, and as long as this process is there, the vote can be even harmful to the upkeep of the wiki 21:55, 2 July 2014 (EDT)
