Nominator(s): Tezero (talk) 03:19, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because after a lot of work over the course of about a month, fueled mainly by a thorough peer review by Nomader, I believe it meets the current FL standards. Neither WikiProject Digimon nor I have any FLs under our belts, so I have worked hard on this list and expect to continue as necessary. Tezero (talk) 03:19, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comment—~~the link to Craig Harris leads to a dab page;~~ no dead external links. Ucucha 18:18, 16 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Wasn't even aware this was out in Japan already... Fixed that too. Tezero (talk) 03:51, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Also, the release date for Digimon Digital Card Battle is wrong, apparently. The source above says December 21, 2000 rather than December 22, 1999. Jonathan Hardin' (talk) 08:52, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

The GameSpot source (the one used) says 1999. Tezero (talk) 23:48, 18 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I'm adding a few of these figures tonight but ultimately I'm too fatigued from events today to do them all tonight. I'll finish tomorrow. Thanks for finding them, by the way. Tezero (talk) 03:51, 19 July 2010 (UTC) Added all of them. Tezero (talk) 18:22, 19 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I know the GameFAQs/GameSpot release date database is considered a reliable source by the video game wikiproject, but personally I think it's never the best source available. Both the Famitsu source above and the official Japanese PlayStation website say December 21, 2000. I would rather trust these than the GameSpot partially user-submitted database. Jonathan Hardin' (talk) 09:59, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Changed. Tezero (talk) 15:37, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support Consistently formatted reliable references, page in a readable format. Looks good enough to reach featured. I vote yes. Sincerely Subzerosmokerain (talk) 22:45, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support I don't see anything wrong with it. However, I'm not really sure what the picture of the RPG booth is supposed to be about.--SexyKick 23:41, 23 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
- Just to have a free image. I can remove it if you deem that necessary. Tezero (talk) 03:47, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Not necessary, but try to keep your eye open for a better free image to replace it with in the future IMHO.--SexyKick 05:33, 24 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

Lead image could be bigger and the caption doesn't need a full stop as it's not a complete sentence.
- Fixed both. The reason the image wasn't already larger was from when I was writing the introduction: the intro was shorter than it is now so I shrunk the image so that it wouldn't push the tables down. Tezero (talk) 22:08, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Refs in non-English should use the "language=" parameter.
- Fixed. Tezero (talk) 22:08, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Do you need both Digimon and Digimon video games for categories?
- Probably. I'm aware that most VG FLs don't do this, but there is no main article for the Digimon game series as opposed to the Digimon franchise as a whole. I think this article best serves as the "main article" for the Digimon game series and thus is appropriate for the category. Tezero (talk) 22:08, 28 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Support per my comments at the peer review. Outstanding job, Tezero. Nomader ^(Talk) 18:31, 31 July 2010 (UTC)[reply]
