World 5 (New Super Mario Bros.)

"World 5 (New Super Mario Bros.)" was nominated for featured article status at 22:43, April 26 2010 (GMT). If the nomination does not pass by 22:43, 25 June 2010, it will be considered failed.

Support

  1. KS3 (talk) I know that this is weird, but shockingly, it follows all eleven rules that an article needs for it to be featured. It has a lot of pictures, a reasonable amount of redlinks and mistakes, and a reasonable length.

Oppose

  1. Gamefreak75 (talk) It needs some fixing up and taken out of first person POV.
  2. Fawfulfury65 (talk) The article appears to be incomplete, and 5 - B does not have the Star Coin locations listed. The level summaries could also be longer.
  3. Bloc Partier (talk) -- The article is not ready. The opening lead is too short and it is very generic; I'm sure that one could expand upon the theme of the level, the fact that there's Hammer Bros. in it, etc. Also, the Star Coin sections are all in first person. They're all imperative sentences, but they are first person, nonetheless. You should also probably choose between "Mario" and "the player," since having both looks kinda bad. Lastly, the whole article is in need of some general grammar and English improvements.

Removal of Opposes

Fawfulfury65

  1. KS3 (talk) 5-B has the star coins, and per Bloc Partier's comment below.

Gamefreak75

  1. KS3 (talk) Per Bloc Partier's comment.
  2. Time Q (talk): Invalid reason. Why wouldn't it work out? Also, articles can be featured even if you haven't finished revamping sections.
  3. Bloc Partier (talk) - Per all.

Comments

@FF65: Ehhh... The level summaries are actually decent length. They're straightforward and get the reader through the level with as little superfluous information as possible. Now, don't get me wrong, because the article is not perfect. It refers to the reader directly in at least one spot, which, along with a couple other issues, must be resolved.

@Gamefreak75: If, by "This would definitely not work out," you meant that it couldn't be a featured article, I do believe you are mistaken. It is actually quite near FA status, and we do have Mt. Teapot featured, and it too is a "world"-type level. Just lettin' you know. :P Bloc Partier (talk)

True, but in my opinion this seems a little odd to me. It still needs some fixing though. Gamefreak75 (talk)

@Commander Code-8: Again, it will work as a featured article. As I said above, any article can be featured if it meets the requirements. Bloc Partier (talk)
