GA Reassessment edit

As part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles' Project quality task force, I am re-reviewing this article to ensure compliance with current good article criteria. I have determined that it doesn't meet criteria for the reasons outlined below and needs a bit of work. As it's not inconceivable that my concerns can be addressed in a relatively timely manner, I'm putting the article on hold for seven days or longer if sufficient work is done before then. The issues:

  • Images: Many images are incorrectly tagged as free, such as File:PSP White.png, File:Ps store remoteplay.jpg, and File:Psp1.png. Simply blurring the copyrighted software/OS does not make it free; the offending areas need to be removed entirely for them to be tagged.
    • Additionally, I'm not seeing how File:PSP 3000 System.png meets WP:NFCC. There's a separate article for the handheld and as there isn't much dramatically different from other models and it isn't the subject of significant coverage, it's not in keeping with NFCC#criterion 8.
  • References: Large swaths of the article are unreferenced; at minimum, there should be one citation at the end of every paragraph for ease of verifiability. {{fact}} tags are littering the article, grounds for a quickfail according to GA reviewing standards.
  • Comprehensiveness: Only a paragraph about the reception? What about more current information? The article is rather sloppily organized, with Sales before an overview of the entire system. Undue weight is given to hardware issues and controversial marketing campaigns, which needs to be de-listified and converted to straight prose.
  • Prose: Shaky, but if the other issues are cleaned up not too much of an issue.

As there has been no movement in addressing my concerns I am delisting. Remember you can renominate any time you feel the article meets criteria. I do not watchlist archived reviews so bring issues to my talk. Thanks, --Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 14:47, 24 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
