Star Wars: TIE Fighter was a good article nominee, but did not meet the good article criteria at the time. There are suggestions below for improving the article. Once these are addressed, the article can be renominated. Editors may also seek a reassessment of the decision if they believe there was a mistake. Reviewed version: June 28, 2006 |
[edit] GA concerns
Some comments/questions regarding this article's Good Article nomination:
- The article could definitely benefit from some Copyediting.
- There are no sources at all. One of the external links is nothing but a brief overview of the game's basic stats. The other explains how to get the game running on newer systems. Neither of these articles seems to have been used as a source.
- Missing spoiler tags for important plot elements.
- The lead paragraph mentions some the technological improvements this game had, but never mentions them again in the article.
- Of the three images used in the article, two are incorrectly tagged as GFDL. Scans of copyrighted images are not eligible for this designation. All images used in the article appear to be copyrighted. They need to be tagged appropriately and have detailed fair use rationales.
- Beware of sentences like While theoretically possible in the "real" Star Wars universe, that would also potentially compromise speed and protection. - they sound like original research.
- Information concerning the development history of the game would be nice.
- There are vague claims of popularity, such as was much lauded by players, but there are no sources cited for these claims. Was the game, in fact, popular? Are sales figures available? How about some press reviews?

[edit] Fair use rationale for Image:Swtiefightercd.jpg
Image:Swtiefightercd.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.
