Shenmue
I've been working on this article for a while and have almost completely rewritten it. It's still far from perfect - the references need more formatting and there are a couple of missing citations still - but I'd appreciate some feedback on how it's shaping up so far. When you work on an article more or less alone for a while, you tend to lose objectivity. Thanks! Popcornduff (talk) 05:00, 27 November 2015 (UTC)


 * One thing that annoys me is that the sources aren't very neatly done. There are a lot of situations where the citation is just some text with an external link (see "Shenmue creator: Story has 11 chapters, ideally '4 or 5 games' in the series"; "New Shenmue 2 information (Sega Dreamcast)"; "http://www.forbes.com/sites/olliebarder/2015/08/16/classic-shenmue-interview-unearthed/"), sometimes with an accessdate attached to it. I'd recommend making use of a template like Template:Cite web, to fill in the publisher/work (such as Forbes, IGN, etc), the author of the article, the date on which the article was published, etc. This all makes it easier to find the source back if it is ever moved, and makes it possible for readers to get an idea of what kind of source it is. It also just looks tidy. ~ Mable ( chat ) 16:05, 8 December 2015 (UTC)


 * You're absolutely right there. Since I started sprucing up the article, I haven't put any work into neatening up the existing sources. I should work on that next. Popcornduff (talk) 16:14, 8 December 2015 (UTC)
