I've looked over this and your other articles relating to eSports players, and honestly I think I'm going to just fail these. I've been hesitant to do this for a while as I wanted to see if somebody else would take these, but it looks like that isn't the case. None of these articles I think are good enough to be GAs (some I don't think are even notable enough to have an article to begin with). They don't pass the GA criteria for a multitude of reasons - for Zackray, in particular, here's why I've decided to fail it:

  1. Many of these sources are very dubious and I don't see them as being reliable. EventHubs is listed as unreliable on WP:VG/S, I have no idea what The Game Haus is, and Hotspawn.com seems dubious.
  2. A lot of the writing is not good. While it's better than some of the others, it's still got a lot of choppy sentences and unnecessary information (like, do we really need to know the release date for Super Smash Bros. Ultimate?)
  3. How come the lead is so short? There's quite a lot of info in the article yet the lead just one paragraph and a few additional sentences.

These articles need a lot of work if they want to be GAs. I would definitely have somebody go and copyedit all of these, and replace all the unreliable sources with ones that are usable. Namcokid47 (Contribs) 18:30, 2 October 2020 (UTC)Reply
