Reassessment edit

Came here via the reassessment request in the talk page template. Bumping this up to Start-class; some ideas for improvement follow:

  • The lead is not summarizing the whole article; it jumps to the release controversy without talking about the gameplay
  • Gameplay is unsourced, and does not talk very much about actual game mechanics
  • There is no plot section, but gameplay implies that there is a plot
  • Development is mostly about release, not development; this may just be because that's the sources you have, but I thought it worth noting
  • Reception is mostly not there, as noted by the tag on the section
  • The article needs a major copyedit; there are a lot of grammar problems
  • Reference 7 has an error in it

Expansion edit

Since the full game has been released, this article is out of date and needs to be expanded. Information on the game's plot needs to be added to the article (it does have one), and more information on the game's release and reception added to the article.--Paleface Jack (talk) 18:04, 8 March 2016 (UTC)Reply

Character listing edit

I just removed this. I appreciate that @Potatoboy23: probably put a lot of effort into the character listing, and I don't mean to step on their toes, but the problem is that as written, it's out of scope for a Wikipedia article on a video game. Here's the appropriate section of the guideline on video game article scope:

Lists of characters lacking secondary sourcing: Following from the above, excessive in-game details on characters is strongly discouraged. Standalone lists of video game characters are expected to be (1) written in an out-of-universe style with a focus on their concept, creation, and reception, and (2) cited by independent, secondary sources to verify this information. While character lists can include some plot summary specific to the character, these plots should not be rehashes of the video game(s) in which they appear but instead broad strokes that simplify the plots of individual games. If these requirements cannot be met, it is instead more appropriate to reduce the list to one to three paragraphs of prose within the "Plot" or "Synopsis" section of the game or series article. It is almost never appropriate to create a standalone list of characters that appear within a single video game as these can be described in the game's article.

It was a bare list, and the sources given for them were walkthroughs. Keep in mind, Wikipedia is not a game guide. Our goal here should be to summarize the game, its development, and reception. Going into that level of detail is kinda beyond our call as an encyclopedia.

It would be better to take that same information, and summmarize it, perhaps in relation to the other games in the series. The info's not gone, it's still in the article history here: [1] Karunamon 21:25, 13 January 2017 (UTC)Reply

No source. edit

As of today, a IP user added info about how mobile ports of FNAF world were cancelled. I would kindly like people to help me find the source of this, or I will be forced to revert it. Empoleonmaster23 (talk) 21:53, 1 February 2017 (UTC)Reply
