GA Review edit

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose):   b (MoS):  
    There are some issues concerning switching between "players" and "player" when describing gameplay; it would work better standardized. For example, under "Gameplay", one sentence states: "the player completing lessons" and also "players take an introductory test". I would recommend making them all a singular "player". Also, the sentence "IGN's review of the PSP version of My Spanish Coach noted that the fact that the game appeared on multiple platforms contributed to its 'sparse look and feel' due to the fact that the graphics and audio were made for the Nintendo DS" at first caused me confusion as it mentioned the DS development as a strength for all platforms, please clarify a little. I figured it out, but I needed to re-read it a couple of times, and do not use the words "due to the fact" in high quality writing. in All MoS conventions are correct.
    Think I took care of all of them. — sephiroth bcr (converse) 03:18, 28 March 2009 (UTC)Reply

  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references):   b (citations to reliable sources):   c (OR):  
    The references are excellent, citing third party publications for all aspects of the coverage.
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects):   b (focused):  
    The article covers, all major aspects: gameplay, production and development, and reception more than adequately
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:  
    Presented in an unbiased manner, where all opinions are attributed to reviewers
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars etc.:  
    Stable article
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales):   b (appropriate use with suitable captions):  
    Images are all used under appropriate fair use
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  
    Holding until those two style issues are fixed. After that, I would be happy to pass the article, good work on it! Well-done, will-written article that I am pleased to pass for GA
