GA Review

This review is transcluded from Talk:Mini Metro (video game)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: Tintor2 (talk · contribs) 02:18, 11 August 2016 (UTC) Hello, I, Tintor2 will review this article. It looks to be in good shape, so I'll probably pass it after seeing issues solved. Here we go:[reply]

  • Can the lead be expanded to be split in at least two paragraphs per WP:Lead? The article is pretty so I think it would be easy.
I've expanded this.
  • Gameplay section: What does "In the Normal play mode"? Is it a diffculty?
It's the name of a game mode. I've added quote marks to emphasise that. The text explains how "Normal" differs from the "Endless" game mode. Tell me if it still isn't clear.
  • Reception: The vg reviews template could be expanded with the ones you used in the prose like "| rev1 = | rev1Score = "
The other reviews didn't give scores.
    • The excellence in audio could also be added with "| award1Pub = | award1 = "
I don't like to use the award entry in the VG reviews template because the text looks too small and cramped. So I prefer to just summarise in prose if there aren't that many awards. That's just my personal preference.
  • Lastly, just an advice. If the development section is too large, I would recommend it to have a subsection.
Usually I would split the development section into subsections, but for this article it seemed better to write it in a chronological order due to the way the game was released. So there isn't really clearly defined subsections for it.

That's all I could gather. Looks like a solid GA. Also if you have some free time could you take a look at my latest peer review? Cheers.Tintor2 (talk) 02:18, 11 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

@Tintor2: I've addressed your comments above. Anything else need to be changed? --The1337gamer (talk) 21:32, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]
Congratulations. Article became a GA.Tintor2 (talk) 21:39, 12 August 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Mini Metro (video game)Mini Metro – The latter is currently a redirect, and the disambig page doesn't have much on it, as "Minimetro" is what is being disambiguised  – NixinovaT|C21:04, 1 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Why should it point to the Austin Mini? It is a prior name; the game is now the primary topic. Mini Metro - the game. MiniMetro - the people mover systems. Austin Metro - that. This is all fine; have hatnotes; they are all different. – NixinovaT|C19:48, 3 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
Why, because of this. This kind of search is how we establish notability in objective reality, so we don't get 10 gamers saying one thing and 10 car owners saying another. In ictu oculi (talk) 02:59, 6 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Mini Metro (video game)Mini Metro – I think that the additional disambiguation is not required because there is no other article with the exact match. We have MiniMetro, about the people mover. Also, the mini Metro dab is not even mentioned in the light rail page so not sure why its listed in the dab article. There is a discussion about the same thing, but its been 6 years and its been more than reasonable enough time to request another one. A case of WP:DIFFCAPS and WP:SMALLDETAILS may apply here. A dab page may not be necessary so could be a case of G14ing it. JuniperChill (talk) 00:28, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Austin Metro has more views (5,331) than the video game (1,167) and was called "Mini Metro", MiniMetro has 397[[1]] and readers looking for that may well use to words as the normal format. Crouch, Swale (talk) 19:54, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose While a realively well known video game in the video game world, it doesn't the name recognition that would elevate it above the other topics at the disambiguation page. --Masem (t) 20:42, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I clearly stated that the dab page doesn't contain any other matches of 'Mini Metro' so it should be named without any disambiguation. If they are not looking for the video game, then that is what the hatnote is for. This reminds me of the situation at Sun Haven where again, other than the dab page, there is no proper article with that name, and all of it has a disambiguator but the video game with that name has since been deleted. Also, Empire of Sin video game can be named that way since the dab page doesn't list any others with the exact name. This is why I proposed this rename move thing. JuniperChill (talk) 21:50, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
>"the dab page doesn't contain any other matches of 'Mini Metro'" That is false. Austin Mini Metro and MiniMetro are clearly legitimate topics that can be referred to as "Mini Metro". See WP:DPT. 162 etc. (talk) 22:01, 29 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose. The Austin Metro was once almost universally referred to as the Mini Metro (I'm old enough to remember it being!). I would go so far as to say that should be a primary redirect. -- Necrothesp (talk) 13:45, 2 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
