Spoiler? edit

Isn't it something of a spoiler to show that image of Super Sonic in the character section? Paul Haymon 04:02, 25 March 2007 (UTC)Reply

Yes, but this is a part of the game. Knowing there is Super Sonic in the game is not that big of a spoiler. Untii next edit, SonicBoom95 22:16, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

Amy as a myth? edit

Isn't it just a myth that Amy is unlockable? Untii next edit, SonicBoom95 22:16, 4 April 2007 (UTC)

No. - MasterOtenko

Actally she can be unlockable by getting all the chaos emeralds.

I can't unlock Amy. I'm having a trouble with that. I finished the game with all characters (all the emeralds too) and I simply can't unlock her. What I need to do? 200.55.113.109 03:25, 27 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

Flash version edit

should the flash version that's prominent in many free flash game sites be mentioned?

It should be mentioned. I have writen about it but I need more information. So can anyone play the Flash game to complete this section I wrote. 200.55.113.109 14:57, 26 May 2007 (UTC)Reply

  1. Is it reasonably well written?  
    I'd give a very brief description of what Chaos emeralds are in the lead for people not familiar with the series. I'd probably also clarify that Doctor Eggman is a reoccurring villain from the series.
    Done.
    "who can unlock Cream the Rabbit" - I'd clarify "unlock" means make them playable characters. Non-gamers will not understand this form the current wording.
    Done.
    "and Amy can swing a hammer throughout levels" - what purpose does swinging a hammer achieve?
    Clarified.
    "a sound test feature" - what does this mean?
    Clarified.
    "where toys for Cream's Chao, Cheese" - This is convoluted; I'd just say "for the character Cheese"
    Done.
    "transforms into Super Sonic" - can you describe what transforming into Super Sonic actual consists of?
    I've added a link and that you need Chaos Emeralds.
    "was developed by Dimps" - I'd introduce Dimps as a development studio; as it's currently written it could be the nickname of a single person or something else.
    Done.
    "Sonic Advance 2 received generally positive reviews upon release, according to review aggregator Metacritic" - I'd add what the ranking actually was to the prose
    I usually don't do that, since the qualitative summary is much more helpful on its own (WP:VGG#Reception).
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. Has an appropriate reference section:  
    There's some inconsistency in date formats in references, I.e "Archived from the original on 2016-03-24. Retrieved 31 October 2017." Pick one date format and stick with it for every single source.
    I'd format reference 18 with Template:Cite magazine for consistency. It looks out of place with detail like "No.915 Pt.2. Pg.121."
    B. Citation to reliable sources where necessary:  
    C. No original research:  
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?  
    A. Major aspects:  
    B. Focused:  
  4. Is it neutral?  
    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. Is it stable?  
    No edit wars, etc:  
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?  
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:  
    B. Images are provided if possible and are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:  
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail: Well done overall. Placing on hold until issues are addressed. Freikorp (talk) 11:27, 8 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
    I'll address the references when I've got time. I've worked on the prose already. JOEBRO64 11:43, 8 December 2017 (UTC)Reply
