GA Review

Article (edit | visual edit | history) · Article talk (edit | history) · Watch

Howdy, I'll be your reviewer for this session. My style is to typically bring issues up in sections, (Lead, Gameplay, Development, etc) below the posted GA criteria. Once an overall issue is taken care of I will strike it out of my comments below and mark the issue with a green check in the criteria. Feel free to address issues as I find them, I will let you know when I am finished with a first full check on the article.
