Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury

Support

1. TasteTheFiresOfHelp (talk) Considering how new this version of 3D World is, the article is already of extremely good quality, with long but still easy to understand descriptions of the story, reception, vast amount of differences from the Wii U/original version of 3D World, and Bowser's Fury itself, and good quality images around all of the article so that it is more immersive, with certainly no red links. All of the new areas and features of Bowser's Fury have blue links with a really impressive image. This should definitely be featured as especially considering the game came out less than three months ago (while writing this) it is detailed and long yet still favoring quality over quantity with a visually standout quality of images, and all blue links.
2. Giga Cat Weegee (talk) I, Giga Cat Weegee, declare that this article is given a star to show that it is is a featured one. Reason why? It's a really good article that accurately explains pretty much everything on the Bowser's Fury mode of Super Mario 3D World + Bowser's Fury.
3. 0blivion (talk) As someone who has worked on this article extensively since the game came out, I am confident it meets the high standard of quality shared by featured articles. If there's anything else that needs to be addressed on it, please let me know. Otherwise, per the others.
4. Archivist Toadette (talk) This is an article on a game remake done right.
5. The Mansion (talk) The best has been done.

Oppose

1. Ray Trace (talk) Going to put an oppose here just so my problem with the changes being a list of bullets is pointed out. I think the ideal way to write the changes is to write it in prose like Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2 or Super Mario All-Stars. I'd support otherwise.

Comments

Looks like it's my turn to request images. The recently-made power-up table is still missing a couple of images of Mario holding a potted Piranha Plant and riding in an Ice Skate. Nightwicked Bowser 19:45, May 3, 2021 (EDT)

These were added last night by 0blivion. Therefore, this reason for not giving it a support vote is out of date. TasteTheFiresOfHelp (talk), 8:18, May 4, 2021 (EST)

The Story section is intertwined with gameplay elements. I’m specifically referring to the fourth and last paragraphs, which should find new home somewhere in the Gameplay section as they go into detail about parts dependent on the player’s actions, such as Mario needing to collect Cat Shines while avoiding Bowser’s Fury, and Bowser Jr. gaining a new cat appearance once a certain condition is satisfied. -- KOOPA CON CARNE 09:00, May 4, 2021 (EDT)

I've just addressed this as well. 0blivion (talk) 10:14, May 4, 2021 (EDT)

I think the gameplay changes need to be in prose rather than a list. See Super Mario World: Super Mario Advance 2. Ray Trace^(T|C) 16:07, May 4, 2021 (EDT)

Glowsquid has shared some pretty valuable input in the MarioWiki Discord re: how it should be organized:

"for example super mario all-stars, for the graphic section you could start with a prose paragraph that says "all-stars overhauls the graphical presentation of its component games redrawing sprites, adding paralax scrolling that wasn't there before, etc etc and then you have the bullets listing the specific "snifits are now green instead of red" stuff i don't feel the two examples you gave as they are now are really all that preferable. right now you just a bunch of short paragrahs sandwiches between tons of rogue line breaks"

Just throwing that out there, I'd also like to take into account how I'd change the article up. Ray Trace^(T|C) 19:19, May 4, 2021 (EDT)
