Looked through, and all seemed fine. Happy giving this an Instant Pass, though I've taken it on myself to address the infobox bloat. Someone can bring this to GAR if they disagree. --ProtoDrake (talk) 20:46, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

Infobox fields

Hi HumanxAnthro, I'm guessing you've expanded the article, am I correct? The infobox lists way too many people. See Template:Infobox video game/doc#Syntax guide. soetermans. ^{↑↑↓↓←→←→ B A TALK} 11:21, 13 March 2023 (UTC)

soetermans, I am assuming you are referring to this part: "Individual tasks should be generally kept to prose and the field should only list key people". I only see this problem for one field, that being artists. Unfortunately, for other aspects of the development, LOTS of people were credited as key part of them, programmers and designers for example.

I have made some changes to address this. User:HumanxAnthro (BanjoxKazooie) 15:19, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

@Soetermans: Full transparency, if there's more issues than this and I ultimately passed this in error, I'd be happy to see this at GAN. I may not have been in the best state to review an article. --ProtoDrake (talk) 20:26, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

@HumanxAnthro: Pretty sure he was referring to the specifics further down that table, in the relevant fields, e.g. for 'programmer': "1) If a single person is credited as "lead programmer", list that person [...] 2) If there is no equivalent to #1, omit this field [...] If three or more people are credited as "lead programmer", discuss whether one played the most significant part and, if decided, list that person." In general, for all "person" fields, the rule is: try to list 1 person. If you need to, you can go up to three in a field, though for programmer you should just omit it instead. You definitely should not try to list the entire game's credits in the infobox, even in collapsed sections. --PresN 22:35, 15 March 2023 (UTC)

Oh, OK... Whatever you feel most comfortable with. User:HumanxAnthro (BanjoxKazooie) 14:02, 17 March 2023 (UTC)
