Through the efforts of a taskforce, the articles of this game series got huge improvements: all the three already released games are FA's, the main page and the characters are GA's. igordebraga 14:24, 10 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

  • Support All criteria seem to fulfill. My support goes to it. DSachan 04:59, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
  • Conditional Support - It's great, I agree (I even promoted one of them to GA myself a bit back), but I'd like you to either rename the topic to "Devil May Cry game series" or get the manga, anime, novels, and music pages up to GA level, as they are all also in the navbox for the series. The topic as nominated covers the games themselves and the characters in those games, I'd like to see the topic name reflect that. --PresN 14:43, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - I see the logic of renaming to "Devil May Cry game series" but wouldn't this then mean that Devil May Cry 4 should be included in the topic? CheekyMonkey 23:00, 11 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - There is some precedent for not including unreleased games, see the Final Fantasy topic not including Final Fantasy XIII. I don't believe that it should be included, as the DMC4 article, like others like it, cannot be gotten to GA+ as it is by nature fickle and unstable. After release, of course, there should be a limited time in which it can be GA'd and added to the topic before the topic is removed as incomplete, but before release the topic shouldn't include it. --PresN 01:09, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Reply - Fair enough, I can see it fits into the category of an audited article of limited subject matter before it's released. Thanks. CheekyMonkey 12:17, 12 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - The characters article could be a list, it's true, but there's been a recent trend in video game characters to make them articles, not lists, as they have much more text than most lists, and it allows the addition of more information about the characters. The prototype for this would be Characters of Final Fantasy VIII, which is a featured article, not a featured list. In general, for things like this, I personally like to see lists for when each character can only realistically get a couple of sentences each for them, but articles when each one can get at least one or two good sized paragraphs about them. That's just my opinion, though. --PresN 11:17, 18 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Comment - Exactly, just as PresN stated above there was nothing aganist it being a common list but we followed the influence of the Final Fantasy character pages and decided we could do a more informative article by following this format. - 01:41, 20 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
