  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose):   b (MoS):  
    Fails WP:LEAD many of those links in the lead could be removed, specifically everyone in the first paragraph. Tty and find a way to incorperate the sales data and ranking into the body as well so those links can be removed.
    The text looks like it could use some cleanup as well. A lot of vague terms are used.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):  
    OR and other specific mentions about the world i cited. In addition:
  3. Ref 6 - publisher needs updating
    Done. --PresN 17:41, 14 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
  4. Ref 31, 32. 34 & 35 - why are they RSes?
  5. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
    Very little on the game's politics which play a central role in the game. There are bits and pieces scattered throughout, but nothing substantial i'd expect when reading an article about "The World of XXX".
  6. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:  
  7. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:  
    Appears there might be one atm between Dream Focus and Kung Fu Man.
    One reversion 3 days before is an edit war? --PresN 17:31, 14 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
  8. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
    File:FFVIII worldmap.png needs to have its copyright staus clarified. There are disputing copyright tags.
    Resolved- I see what the user was trying to do, but since it's a derivative work of a copyrighted image, he can't add a copyleft criteria to his version, as he didn't have any rights over it in the first place. It doesn't need to be GNU'd to allow further derivative works, since he/the future person can't claim copyright in the first place. --PresN 17:37, 14 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
    Ok. Still needs info on why a copyright-free version can't be used. Possibly consider using a template.Jinnai 18:07, 14 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
  9. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  
    holding until some of the issues are resolved or 1 week of no major activity.Jinnai 23:15, 13 November 2009 (UTC)Reply
