Lego Batman 2: DC Super Heroes edit

Nominator(s): elijahpepe@wikipedia 02:52, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

This article is about a 2012 Lego video game. This article was brought to GA-status the other day and seems worthy of a FA review. elijahpepe@wikipedia 02:52, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose at this time - I'd suggest taking this through a thorough peer review before nominating. Some specific issues:

  • Use of unreliable sources, eg IMDB
Certain sections can't be done without the use of such sources. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 14:16, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Inconsistent/incomplete citations - eg multiple citations are missing website/publisher
Fixed.
Fixed. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 06:10, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Some of the materials that are cited don't appear to be supported by the citations given - eg I can't find the claim "some missions force the camera to be in a 2.5D perspective" in the source given
Hopefully fixed. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 14:22, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • File:Lego_Batman_2_-_DC_Super_Heroes_suit_showcase.jpg needs a stronger fair-use rationale. Nikkimaria (talk) 03:22, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
The fair use rational seems to be fine. No free image exists that demonstrates the game. The image is, as far as I know, promotional material released by TT Games. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 14:22, 20 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
elijahpepe@wikipedia As a coord, I have to say that reliable sources and correct image licensing are a basic requirement for FAC. If you aren't willing to make sure the article follows the FA criteria, this nomination will have to be archived. (t · c) buidhe 02:41, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
I'm absolutely willing to make sure it follows FA criteria, but at the very least the image does follow correct licensing. As for the citations, I've attempted to find better sources for the cast section but the only two sources that could even be considered are BehindTheVoiceActors and GameFAQs. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 03:39, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - Im sorry but this shouldn't have even passed GAN. The Development section alone is so barebones. We literally have a Lg game thats a Featured Article with Lego Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy that could be used as a template to improve. GamerPro64 04:45, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure what you expect me to do. I've done the most possible to get sources for the development section. elijahpepe@wikipedia (he/him) 14:24, 22 March 2022 (UTC)[reply]
