MarioWiki:Featured articles/N1/Rosalina's Storybook

Support

 * 1) It is pretty written, and I don't know why this wasn't featured yet.

Oppose

 * 1) Though it is a good article, it is mostly just copied text from the game, and is not a good example of Mario Wiki. I think featured articles should mostly be written by Mario Wiki editors, no Nintendo.
 * 2) I agree with Mario7. He is not suggesting the article be rewritten, just that it not be featured. Featured articles are supposed to be articles that the users here have written well, not Nintendo. This does not mean it has to be rewritten, just not featured.

Removal of Opposes
Mario7 and Skittles
 * 1) What should we do??Modify the story don't looks a good option...And reerite it will be lost of time!!
 * 2) Your logic isn't good: using your logic, nearly all featured lists will have to be unfeatured since nearly all of the description and images are by Nintendo. Besides, SOMEONE has to grab and incorporate information into this article, y'know?
 * 3) Per Ashley and Red and Baby Luigi.
 * 4) Per Baby Luigi.
 * 5) It's not the quality of the writing, but the presentation that makes this article worthy to be featured. Per my sister (Baby Luigi).

I think the first image could be better. What is shown is just a texture file of the book

I know, but there isn't artwork of the book, is? Or should we use another image (Like an important page of the story)?
 * I think that would be a better idea. Because honestly, the texture should be used in a gallery. Not as part of the main article
 * The 1st page needs to be used, or one with Rosalina and Lumas?
 * The one that illustrates the book better: The one with Rosalina and Lumas
 * OK. I also found that
 * Wich is better? this one, or that one?
 * I like the first one more
 * Done, what do you think?

The citation at the beginning of the article is borked - it just links to Nintendo's product page. --Glowsquid (talk) 19:51, 27 January 2014 (EST)
 * Yep. I saw the" Iwata asks" about the book. The page was deleted

Clean up the Empty Section please
 * Whaat empty section?
 * It's fixed.
 * Ah...OK. The article looks better now?
 * It does. I might support it :P. One more thing: is the way this article is written supposed to be like that?
 * :) What you means with it? :)
 * Like the first sentence of the story: "Our story begins a very, very long time ago with a young girl. One day, this girl spotted a rusted spaceship holding a small star child. " I mean it's not formal at all. Is it in-game text?
 * Oh, sorry :P Yeah, this is in-game text. ;)
 * It should be mentioned that it's told in in-game text or something
 * Yes, it should. But i do not know how do it. Maybe do anything like that?

Mario7, The story is written by nintendo, and we can't modify it. Your "oppose" sucks
 * His oppose does not suck, and he is not suggesting it be modified. He is simply stating that pages that are copied completely from games should not be featured.
 * It is copied from the game...Why does it matter? The beginning of the article is also good (and written by editors)
 * His logic DOES suck because that's exactly what Featured Lists are: they are text copied from the games and that's basically about it. Though I DO suggest making a table of some sort or something since it still bothers me the way the article is written and it could go as a featured list instead.
 * Both of them sucks, if they don't support this article to become a featured article. No offences, but you need to think twice before you oppose to something. 14:07, 1 February 2014 (EST)
 * Can you please make a more constructive argument? It's not helping this article get featured.
 * I said in my post that I don't suggest a rewrite at all. I don't think anything needs to be changed, just that it not be featured. Unless there is some way to add user-written material. FA's are SMW's best, so the FA's should be articles the users write, do you see where I'm coming from? I have never heard about Featured Lists, but if they are, as you say, copied entirely from the game, then maybe that's what this should be.
 * Also, @Pinkie: That's fairly silly to claim our logic sucks simply because we oppose a nomination you support.
 * Featured lists are this, the ingredient articles, this, this, this, and more. I understand your point, but it's not a disqualifier for Featured Articles at all since MarioWiki's best ALSO includes complete listings because that sort of thing takes effort to do too, since it requires to prune through the game itself and rip its assets from it, rather than writing what you know about it. It's just as hard as writing the article itself.
