#{{User|Alex95}} If lack of red links is your only reason, I'm gonna say no.

#{{User|Owencrazyboy9}} I agree. Having a rewrite or construction template on the page is against the nomination rules. Also, I spotted a red link. Per Alex95.
#{{User|Luigi 64DD}} Per all.
#{{User|Yoshi876}} The article is still undergoing work to fix the issues it had when it became unfeatured. It's in no state to be re-featured at this current time.
#{{User|Baby Luigi}} Article size has absolutely nothing to do with the quality of the article. If that were the case, [[Yoshi]] would be candidate for a featured article but as it is currently, it is a cesspool of bad and flowery, biased writing. The article still has a construction tag and a rewrite template on the top of the page, and it irks me that you didn't give a crap about the rules, which explicitly forbid nominating articles with those tags up (which have their own stories to tell that I won't go over, but are there for a reason). '''Read the guidelines first''' before you make nominations that fail on the very first and clear rule.
#{{User|Toadette the Achiever}} Per all. Length does not always guarantee good writing.
#{{User|Bazooka Mario}} In the future, you need to review [[MarioWiki:Featured_articles#Featured_article_standards|our rules]] before you nominate articles like this. There is an impressive amount of work poured in, but it remains that this article is incomplete. Please be more careful in the future.
#{{User|Boo4761}} First of all, there is a rewrite template on the top, second, Article size has nothing to do with its quality. Lastly, this article is largely incomplete and we are still working on the issues that got it unfeatured. You have clearly never read the guidelines for nominating articles, can you please read it in the future?
