Crackdown
Self-Nomination - Article has passed through GA and others have helped to perform some copyediting to improve the language. M ASEM 17:58, 11 May 2008 (UTC)


 * Restart, old nom. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 23:41, 3 June 2008 (UTC)

Comments Gary King ( talk ) 01:01, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
 * A ton of linked years in "Development"; unlink them per MOS:UNLINKYEARS
 * I should point out they link to articles; instead of 2005, they link to 2005 in video gaming, for example. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ( talk  ) 01:04, 4 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Ah yes, thanks. I'm sure it looks really strange for some others as it did to me, though. I would generally suggest to just unlink them, because generally speaking, when a year is linked, it is assumed that it goes to the year it shows and not one specifically for a certain topic like video games.

 * Yeah, I agree, that's why I dont use them in the articles I write. I believe another user removed them. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ( talk  ) 14:17, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * That was me. --M ASEM  14:32, 5 June 2008 (UTC)

Comments - sourcing appears sound, doesn't appear to have changed substantially since from when any concerns were resolved at the old FAC. Links still checked out fine with the link checker tool. Ealdgyth - Talk 02:35, 4 June 2008 (UTC)

Conditional Support - Providing this is copyedited fully by someone new to the text to polish the prose. — Wackymacs ( talk  ~  edits ) 07:29, 5 June 2008 (UTC)
 * The editor's responded that he'll get to it, so give or take a few days... --M ASEM 14:32, 5 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Support. I've copyedited around half of it so far, but the prose looks very good, I'm not changing much. And reviewing the article doesn't look like anything is missing. · AndonicO  Engage. 19:13, 9 June 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment - image sourcing and non-free content meets policy. This is actually one of the better examples (especially for a video game) I've seen in which the images are actually used to increase readers' understanding of points in the text. Nice work. Kelly  hi! 05:48, 10 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Support Ando has done his magic, I straightened some minor phrases but think that the prose meets quality. Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ( talk  ) 14:07, 11 June 2008 (UTC)
 * Support as I (think I) did before the restart. Good copyedit, AndonicO. giggy (O) 09:07, 12 June 2008 (UTC)
