Most of this list you will find are related to children's/teenage media, hence the irritating "90s kid" label. A few other entries ''would'' have been on this list, but it seems that others have already brought them to GA before me. Worthy mentions include ''[[GoldenEye 007 (1997 video game)|Goldeneye 007]]'', [[Red Dwarf]] (favourite TV show) and the [[Sega Saturn]]. I've also promoted a few articles to GA that are from the 90s but are ''not'' on this list. This is either because I never interacted with them in my formative years, or I just don't like them <small>(eg. ''[[Burning Rangers]]'', which is an FA, but I've never played it!)</small>. I know the current list is long, but it is a reference for me in order to write them, slowly but surely. |

This list is more of a reference for my Wikipedia work than a personal collection; which is very ironic because I think I have at least one real-life memory prior to the year 2000. It is a personal fascination and is deeply moving when I see most media related to the golden era of 1992-1999 (2000-1 is mentioned too). Below is list of articles that I must promote to GA in the near future, with links in bold meaning something special to me, and as such has a higher priority. A link with a '' next to it means that it is my top favourite of that genre. If an article is promoted to GA, I will put a '' icon next to it. Same goes with FAs.
Most of this list you will find are related to children's/teenage media, hence the irritating "90s kid" label. A few other entries would have been on this list, but it seems that others have already brought them to GA before me. Worthy mentions include Goldeneye 007, Red Dwarf (favourite TV show) and the Sega Saturn. I've also promoted a few articles to GA that are from the 90s but are not on this list. This is either because I never interacted with them in my formative years, or I just don't like them (eg. Burning Rangers, which is an FA, but I've never played it!). I know the current list is long, but it is a reference for me in order to write them, slowly but surely.
