Gameplay

This article needs to describe the gameplay. --Saziel 22:02, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

This article is horribly horribly written, as if someone young in mind had his first attempt to summarize a story in readable structure. If I knew more, I would definitely contribute to this here article. Yet, whilst I learn, you all enjoy that which is left. --DMAftermath —Preceding unsigned comment added by 68.225.102.79 (talk) 04:31, 3 December 2009 (UTC)

Fair use rationale for Image:S17013 PS2 2.jpg

Image:S17013 PS2 2.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.BetacommandBot 10:13, 6 June 2007 (UTC)

Good article status

Before this goes into review, it looks like it can use expansion for breadth, especially in Gameplay and Reception from the given reviews. A bit more depth on the main points of the reviews and the intricacies of gameplay, for instance. I'd also remove the numbers from the Reception and rewrite for a general audience.  czar 06:27, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

@Czar: I tried expanding the reception but I can't find anything about the gameplay's section. It's quite simple to have more paragraphs.Tintor2 (talk) 14:42, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

I also found more reviews here but I can't tell if they are good to use.Tintor2 (talk) 14:49, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

I'd remove the PSX Extreme (fan site) review and work to get the reviews from print magazines. You can find other WP editors who have the magazines by searching the WP:VG/RL and WP:VG/PA (see specific magazine title). For instance, GameRankings says that there are reviews in EGM, GamePro, Official PlayStation Magazine, Play UK, Game Informer, GMR, PSM3, even GameSpy and Electric Playground. Time to do a little digging! The game's from 15 years ago, so it's expected that some of the sources needed for basic breadth will be offline. The reviews should be used to expand just what the player does in the game. As I read it, I don't get a complete sense of the premise of the story, what the player does, and how the levels are structured.  czar 16:17, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

Removed the fansite and added two reviews the project had.Tintor2 (talk) 17:00, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

@Czar: I tried revising the gameplay and plot section but I don't know if it is better now. The premise is kinda simple like "military invades Jupiter, reclutant pilot protects people from them while taking the robot and ultimately succeds".Tintor2 (talk) 23:58, 15 June 2017 (UTC)

Copyedits

The following were restored:

• The {{About}} is a hatnote "linking the reader to other articles with similar titles or concepts that they may have been seeking instead". Is that not what describes Zone of the Enders (video game) and Zone of the Enders?
• If there's going to be a large released date list, make it collapsible.
• Second gameplay paragraph "In some stages of the story..." is completely unsourced. Adjusted to sourced version.
• Merged final paragraph since the subject of sequels, ports, etc is covered above it. Same for the lead as well.

The rest left out may not meet certain Wikiproject guidelines, but are not major. « Ryūkotsusei » 03:20, 3 September 2018 (UTC)

@Ryūkotsusei/box: Thanks. Feel free to nominate it or something. Maybe the reception could be a bit reorganized though but I am only did work for two games articles: Devil May Cry 4 and Naruto Shippuden: Ultimate Ninja Storm 2.Tintor2 (talk) 00:49, 4 September 2018 (UTC)
