I put this article through a pretty strenuous GA nom a while back, and I want to try to polish it up and send it to FAC. Any suggestions or problems with the article will be very much appreciated. --PresN 16:07, 23 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Finetooth comments: This appears to be in excellent shape. I had to work hard to find much to say, but here are a few observations and suggestions.

Heads and subheads

  • MOS:HEAD says in part, "Section names should preferably be unique within a page; this applies even for the names of subsections." For this reason, I would suggest eliminating the words "Final Fantasy" from all of the heads and subheads. With most, this should be easy. For example, you could simply shorten "Final Fantasy X-2" to "X-2". Others will take a bit more thought.

Themes

  • "It has been described as being 'as recognizable in gaming circles as the Super Mario Bros. theme or Sonic the Hedgehog's title screen pop." - The quotation marks showing the end of the quote in this sentence seem to be missing.

1987–1994: Famicom era

  • "Aside from informing him of the specific technical limitations of the Famicom system, the game was released in 1987." - Dangling modifier. The game didn't inform him.
  • "The soundtrack included that first attempt in the Final Fantasy series... " - "the" rather than "that"?
  • "The first actual vocals in a song would appear in Final Fantasy VII." - Straight past, "appeared"?

Chocobo series

  • "Only some of the games have received separate soundtrack releases." - Would "have led to" be better than "received"?

Merchandise

  • "The majority of Final Fantasy games, including all of the main series games, have received a soundtrack album release." - "have led to"?

References

  • MOS:ALLCAPS says in part, "Reduce newspaper headlines and other titles from all caps to title case: Replace "WAR BEGINS TODAY" with "War Begins Today"." For this reason, citations like #28 should be changed to title case.

General

  • The dabfinder tool that lives here finds three links that go to disambiguation pages rather than to the intended target.

I hope these few suggestions prove helpful. If so, please consider reviewing another article, especially one from the PR backlog. That is where I found this one. Finetooth (talk) 03:23, 30 July 2009 (UTC)[reply]
