So are we adding the minigames or not? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Hiitit (talkcontribs) 02:46, 15 November 2017 (UTC)[reply]

  • There is unlikely any copyright violation in the article. Earwig's Copyvio Detector has reported only 32.9% in similarity.

  • The article is stable.
  • No previous GA reviews.

General comments

[edit]
  • Prose, spelling, and grammar checking.
    • "gameplay in up to four characters" → "gameplay with up to four characters"
    • The rest of the article looks good, there are no grammatical errors.
  • Checking whether the article complies with MOS.
    • Optional: Add alt text to images in the article.
    • The article complies with the MOS:LEDE, MOS:LAYOUT], MOS:WTW, and MOS:WAF guidelines. There are no embedded lists within the article, so I am skipping MOS:EMBED. Overall, the lede's length is okay, and it summarises the article, the article has appropriate sections, and there are no biased words in the article.
  • Checking refs, verifiability, and whether there is original research.
    • References section with a {{reflist}} template is present in the article.
    • No referencing issues.
    • All references are reliable. Good job on archiving them.
    • Spotchecked Ref 1, 2, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, 17–all verify the cited content. AGF on other citations.
      • The people in the infobox are unsourced.
      • Ref 5: no mentions of which eight characters, Toad for Minigame Island, Toadette for Championship Battles and Decathlon.
    • Copyvio already checked.
  • Checking whether the article is broad in its coverage.
    • The article addresses the main aspects, and it stays focused on the topic.
  • Checking whether the article is presented from an NPOV standpoint.
    • The article meets the criteria and is written in encyclopedic language.
  • Checking whether the article is stable.
    • As noted in the initial comments, the article has been stable.
  • Checking images.
    • Images are properly licensed.

Final comments

[edit]

@The Green Star Collector: There's not too much to fix. Once the issues get addressed, I'll promote the article. The review will be put on hold for a week. --Vacant0 (talkcontribs) 11:52, 13 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

@Vacant0: Thank you for your feedback regarding the article. I've made the slight change to the lede and added citations from a subpage of an archived Nintendo website for the eight playable characters, as well as Toad and Toadette being hosts. (I also added a small amount of information in the "Development" section, concerning the game's release date in Europe being moved up two weeks.) As for citations for the staff listed in the infobox, I've found supporting information on both IMDb and Moby Games, though I'm aware that both websites are open-source and therefore likely unreliable. Unfortunately, to my knowledge, Mario Party: The Top 100 doesn't have a traditional manual that could be cited, which was the case for Mario Party DS. ★ The Green Star Collector ★ (talk) 02:09, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They’re mentioned in the game’s credits, which is ok. See https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=oWP4YIB-1h0&pp=ygUgbWFyaW8gcGFydHkgdGhlIHRvcCAxMDAgY3JlZGl0cyA%3D 7:20. Vacant0 (talkcontribs) 07:14, 15 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

FA but every name in the infobox is unsourced and not mentioned in the text? Aza24 (talk) 00:32, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]

If you could find any sources for these details, that would be greatly appreciated. Unfortunately, Mario Party: The Top 100's manual does not helpfully list all of the game's staff like Mario Party DS's manual, and any sources I've come across for this information would not be viewed as reliable. ★ The Green Star Collector ★ (talk) 03:06, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So if RS don't cover material, we don't include it Wikipedia. This seems like the kind of thing were Japanese sources might have more information. Aza24 (talk) 03:10, 2 October 2024 (UTC)[reply]
