Comments

 * PlayStation Network is missing in the platform field of the infobox
 * Added JAG  UAR   13:53, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Inconsistencies in the released field of the infobox
 * Fixed JAG  UAR   13:53, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * It released on Android - It should be written in passive voice
 * Re-worded JAG  UAR   13:53, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * numerous spin-offs released for the PlayStation Portable - Here sounds like that there is a lot of spin offs for the PlayStation Portable.
 * Removed "numerous" JAG  UAR   13:53, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Syphon Filter was met with universal acclaim from critics upon release - "universal" is a peacock term
 * Re-worded this, although I think "universal acclaim" are used in a few other articles JAG  UAR   13:53, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * The current weapon equipped is displayed always displayed in the bottom right corner - "Display" was used twice
 * Oops, fixed JAG  UAR   14:01, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Information about the stealth based tactics and the action-oriented gameplay need a source.
 * The stealth-action hybrid was mentioned in most of the sources, so I re-used a citation here JAG  UAR   14:01, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * In some stealth based missions, the game will involve puzzles that must be solved - Puzzles are of course there for people to solve. It is not necessary.
 * Removed a part JAG  UAR   14:01, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * What actually is Syphon Filter? Is this some kind of virus or anything similar?
 * Yep it's a virus/biochemical weapon, I re-worded JAG  UAR   14:01, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Benton is a mole inside - Wikilink "Mole"
 * Done, thanks JAG  UAR   14:01, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Readers may not be familar with Potassium chloride, so it is better to tell readers briefly how it works
 * I done some scientific research and found out that it's used in lethal ejections, so I added that JAG  UAR   14:07, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * NATO need to be wikilinked as well
 * Done JAG  UAR   14:07, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * furious at Logan's interference - Gabriel is used throughout the article, so this shouldn't be an exception.
 * Done JAG  UAR   14:07, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Syphon Filter need to be italicized in the quote.
 * Fixed JAG  UAR   14:07, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * It currently has a 86.93% aggregate score on GameRankings - Should simply be 87%
 * Fixed JAG  UAR   14:07, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Metacritic's score should be 90/100, instead of simply 90
 * Fixed JAG  UAR   14:07, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Wikilink frame rate
 * Added JAG  UAR   14:07, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

 * having an excellent replay value - Should not be in ing-form in my opinion
 * Changed to "had" JAG  UAR   14:08, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * 1 dead link
 * I removed it since it was relating to Bubsy 3D and nothing to do with this game JAG  UAR   14:11, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * You should link GameTrailers, IGN, VG 247, GameSpot and Game Revolution in the citation
 * Done JAG  UAR   14:08, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * You should use Template:Non-free use rationale video game cover in File:Syphon Filter.jpg, The image also don't have the   tag in Template:Non-free game cover
 * Added JAG  UAR   14:29, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * Don't leave some of the fields in Template:Non-free use rationale 2 in File:Syphon Filter gameplay 001.jpg n.a.
 * Sorted JAG  UAR   14:29, 29 May 2015 (UTC)


 * It should be quality over quantity, but the amount of sources used here is a bit too little. It would be great if you can add more sources to the article, though it has already met the standard.
 * I agree, although reliable sources for this game is scarce and I only used what was relevant, I'll try and find some more and add them in if I can. JAG  UAR   14:29, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

thanks for the review! I think I've addressed everything and I have just added a new source for the gameplay section, although some reliable sources are hard to find through the customised search engine. Please let me know what you think now? JAG UAR   14:31, 29 May 2015 (UTC)

 * - I am very sorry as I forget to mention that this article needs a legacy section, talking about the series and sequels. It should be an important section and I completely forget about that in my review. Would be great if you can add one in. AdrianGamer (talk) 12:16, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
 * No problem - I've added a sequels section. It's my bad that I forgot to include it in as well! I was thinking of bringing Syphon Filter 2 + 3 up to GA soon, but I can't find anything on development. JAG  UAR   16:19, 11 September 2015 (UTC)
