Remove Featured Article Status

1. Baby Luigi (talk) I did not nominate this, but the nominator's reasoning is valid: "This page need to be rewritten. The "Other appearances, cameos and references" needs to go to the main article, and the page needs a overall trimming. Also, if you look closely, you can see that section Super Mario Bros.: Peach-hime Kyushutsu Dai Sakusen! is written short. So, yeah. The page need to be unfeature.". It pretty much covers the rewrite template on top of the page. It desperately needs major clean-up before it can get featured.
2. LeftyGreenMario (talk) I put that template in the first place. This article has splendid amount of information, but a lot of sections are a full-blown plot "synopsis" with 5+ paragraphs. If not, sections with fewer paragraphs have huge ones that are barely followable. We should aim for only a summary for each game while we leave the intricate plot details in its respective article. That means we should be aiming for 3-5 paragraphs. Maybe it's just me, but I find myself skimming through the article because the information feels so overwhelming. What's bad is that this article crashes slower browsers, which shows its sheer size. Also, while many comics have extraordinary coverage, some other sections are bare, including the Super Mario-Kun. The General Information section is teeming with information, but it almost seems overwhelming as well. I deeply appreciate the incredible effort poured into this, and I didn't have the heart to unfeature the article, but at the same time, I don't want to have a featured article like this. Until these major problems have been solved, I'm not going to let this be continued to be featured.
3. GreenDisaster (talk) Per all.

Keep Featured Article Status

1. NSY (talk) Correct me if I'm wrong but there is no policy that supports your reasoning, but more info is good, while it may take a long time to load and I do agree with "quality not quantity", I also agree that quantity is an important factor of quality. To be honest a user for is now a patroller worked hard getting is featured. If you want to change the policy, I suggest you make a proposal.

Removal of Support/Oppose Votes

NSY (talk)

1. GreenDisaster (talk) We've unfeatured Tabuu, Mario & Luigi: Superstar Saga, Mario & Luigi: Partners in Time, Mario & Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story, and possibly others due to the completely unnecessary lengths of their articles. Unfeaturing this is just going to be consistent.
2. BabyLuigiOnFire (talk) This article needs serious trimming. It's supposed to have a short summary of the game. I am certain that some sections in this article can be compressed to a much more manageable length. It's amazing that this article is the largest in the wiki, beating out some notably long ones such as lists or series articles.

No, all blocking does is remove the nominator's vote. Anyone else can vote in this. Baby Luigi (talk)
