 * GA review (see here for criteria)

 Reading the article. I will update this when done. Updated. 陣 内 Jinnai 22:22, 13 November 2009 (UTC) The text looks like it could use some cleanup as well. A lot of vague terms are used.
 * 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.
 * 1) 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:
 * 1) Ref 6 - publisher needs updating
 * Done. -- Pres N  17:41, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) Ref 31, 32. 34 & 35 - why are they RSes?
 * 2) 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".
 * 1) It follows the neutral point of view policy.
 * Fair representation without bias:
 * 1) 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? -- Pres N  17:31, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) 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. -- Pres N  17:37, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
 * Ok. Still needs info on why a copyright-free version can't be used. Possibly consider using a template. 陣 内 Jinnai 18:07, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
 * 1) Overall:
 * Pass/Fail:
 * holding until some of the issues are resolved or 1 week of no major activity. 陣 内 Jinnai 23:15, 13 November 2009 (UTC)
