Re: CloudNine's comment: Fixed lack of image rationale.
Line 9: Line 9:
*'''Object''' While some of the games are well described, some games on the opening list barely have one sentance while some have several paragraphs so try evening this out. Understandably some games will be more significant than others, but it is too lopsided at the moment. Also some more information on the development of the series as a whole would be nice as the two paragraphs following the lead really leave something to be desired. Perhaps take some information out of the headers for the individual games and put them in their own heading. Also some critical reaction to the game series as a whole would be nice, rather than just for the individual games, and perhaps some information about the how ''Need for Speed'' has influencd (or failed to influence) the driving simualtion genre videogame. Also i second all of the objections mentioned above. A few hours good work and research on some sources and this'll be ready. [[User:Thethinredline|Thethinredline]] 14:11, 1 November 2006 (UTC)

*'''Strong Object''' - just not ready. Look at some of the game articles in [[WP:FA]]. First of all, the lead is really not long enough ([[WP:LEAD]]). Secondly, many more references are needed and 'citation needed' tags are present! Also, some of the images lack sufficient fair use rationale and some have none. Refer to [[WP:PR|peer review]] first.

  • Peer review might be helpful, after all the cite tags are dealt with, and a readthrough of WP:WIAFA, WP:LEAD and WP:MOS. Sandy (Talk) 13:41, 1 November 2006 (UTC)[reply]
