Bayonetta (character) ↗

It's very poor writing, and it's completely excessive. There are no good articles, never mind Good Articles or Featured Articles, in which individual reviews get that much space. Find me one--and maybe explain why something from www.destructoid.com should get so much attention. What even is www.destructoid.com? Drmies (talk) 15:24, 3 March 2026 (UTC)
:@Drmies I'm a bit baffled by your response, because many video game articles, let alone character articles, get "that much space" in commentary regarding the characters. In fact, it's pretty much standard as can be seen in stuff such as Raichu ↗ or other articles on my user page if you want to check.
:Destructoid in this case is also regarded as a reliable source, and Jonathan Holmes ↗ has written for a multitude of publishing outlets, even if I find his opinion to be bullocks in regards to that character. It's been that way for at least the last ten years with consensus clearing backing up that's how to approach reception sections for these articles. To boot, your swing was more of a wholesale cleaving than a tightening of prose, and the response here far too aggressive.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:31, 3 March 2026 (UTC)
:User talk page stalking I should also chime in that the appearances section deletion was pretty heavy-handed; while the excessive detail is obviously a problem, having no information whatsoever explaining her role in these games is significantly worse. - Cukie Gherkin (talk) 16:16, 3 March 2026 (UTC)

Thunderjaw

Hello, I am in the process of making an article for the Thunderjaw from the Horizon franchise. I was just wondering since you have experience with video game characters if you'd be interested in helping me make a reception section for it? Reception is probably the section I am worst at writing for articles. -- '''ZooBlazer''' 00:33, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|ZooBlazer}} I did a small tweak on the infobox, those custom params aren't needed and won't really tell the reader much at all. I think your biggest problem though is the article primarily relies on lists but also Valnet sourcing. That's going to sink it fast.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 06:48, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
::Those parameters are literally how it is classified in the games hence it being in-universe info similar to a Pokémon typing. I do know the reception needs additional info besides what it currently has. It's just an early reception for now, but it is tougher to find specific things outside of lists. I still need to look though places like reviews of the games. -- '''ZooBlazer''' 06:52, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
:::{{ping|ZooBlazer}} Yeah but they're in Pokemon to help the reader differentiate the Pokemon from one another, and understand commonality between them, and you can cite how it affects overall perception (i.e. Echo from Overwatch looks like she should be Support, and a few sources complained she was Damage as a result). Unless you're planning a series here, it's isolated and a bit cruft-y.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 06:57, 9 March 2026 (UTC)
::::Is this article better? Don't want to move it to main space if it'll just get AfD'd too. -- '''ZooBlazer''' 21:18, 14 March 2026 (UTC)
:::::{{talk page stalker}} I personally wouldn't AfD that article if it went to mainspace. I'd change the title to Machines (''Horizon'' video game series) ↗ since we're talking about a literal "species", rather than just machines in general. ᴢxᴄᴠʙɴᴍ (ᴛ) 18:53, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
::::::I'm sorry for the delayed reply, but I agree with Zx's assessment.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 18:54, 15 March 2026 (UTC)
:::::::I wasn't sure about the title. Cukie suggested the idea to me originally and used Zombies in Resident Evil ↗ as an example so that was what I had based the title on. -- '''ZooBlazer''' 19:42, 15 March 2026 (UTC)

Slowing down

Hey there, I really appreciate the help you've given me over the course of my time on Wikipedia. Based on the comments I've received, I'm now actively trying to improve my sourcing and verification ↗ process to make sure my prose more accurately reflects what sources say without having to rely on others at GAN or FAC to point out issues for me. In the past, you've told me to "slow down". That seems a little difficult for someone like me, but I'm willing to give it a shot. That being said, I've been wondering how best to get myself to slow down. Would you be open to giving me some feedback on my prose or pointing out how I can become a more diligent editor? Gommeh (talk! sign!) 15:56, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
:I'm honestly not in a really good headspace to help there, it's due to a personal matter I don't want to get into. But I'll ping @Pokelego999, they may be able to.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 16:17, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
::I have only been observing in passing so take my advice with a grain of salt, but I'd say it's largely a case of kind of trying to get articles done and dusted as quickly as possible. I've seen a lot of spurious noms from your end, or noms that follow incredibly quickly after a previous fail or set of comments. It's okay to do so if you feel it's in a good state, but a lot of the time it feels like it's not ensured that everything has been reviewed or completely, 100% finished before a nom goes up (Most notably with Music of Genshin Impact ↗, which got nommed so far ahead of your intended schedule for improvement that it got quickfailed with no improvements). There's also cases of trying to get articles out as fast as possible despite some other editors finding issues with parts of it that may need addressing before a mainspace or nomination.
::There's nothing necessarily wrong with trying to work fast, but I feel you're working at a speed right now where you're more focused on getting to the end goal than ensuring the quality of the product heading there at times. Advice wise I'd say: Remember that you don't have to rush things. A nomination or goal won't go anywhere if you take an extra few hours to work on ensuring a given article is in its best state. Perform your due diligence, verify your sources, and take your time researching, especially for bigger topics. I'd also try and listen to the advice of other editors if they give you any and make sure you thoroughly address their concerns, and if you're unsure on how to do so, be willing to seek out other venues and people you can use to get to the end. Obviously use your better judgement, but it should help with getting the ropes of the process down.
::You've done relatively solid work from what I've seen so far (Especially for your work at Genshin Impact ↗, that's definitely not a game I expected to see at FAC any time soon). That being said, speed is definitely a factor, and I'd advise some more patience and quality assurance be applied, especially before major noms, to ensure your content is the best it can be. Obviously this is from second-hand experience so take things with a grain of salt where need be, but I do hope this helps with clarifying some matters. Let me know if I can clarify anything further. Magneton Considerer: '''Pokelego999''' (Talk ↗) (Contribs ↗) 18:02, 17 March 2026 (UTC)
:::Got it, and thanks for the advice. I think a lot of it has to do with milestones and me subconsciously focusing on getting a certain number of GAs. Sounds good in theory, but it can pressure people into rushing things and I think that's what's going on with me right now. As such, I've done a major restructuring ↗ of my user page that removes all the milestones I had mentioned. Hopefully, that takes care of a lot of the pressure I was feeling before.

Battle Arena Toshinden

Hi. A couple questions. As requested per your edit summary, bringing it up on your talk page ↗:
# First, you removed a cite ""there's no reason for that much info in the ref, especially if you're not going to include the ISSN and wikilink" ↗ I don't think there are any guidelines about not having citations being more filled out a bit more and I don't believe it clashes with any reference style you have going in any serious format. You edited it again removing info here ↗. I don't understand.
# Remake is a loaded term. ↗. It can imply superiority of one version over another. No source I found has called it this version of the game that either and the source you suppolied did not either. So we shouldn't toss these terms around casually. The best I could find was the game being a parody of the first game, which I have cited in the Game Boy article.
# I've notice you cite articles a few times where there is no prose backing up what you are saying, but then you have said its in the image in the article. I'm not sure on the validity of that. Could you show me some guideline that gives that the ok? As stated in my summary, and as I'm sure you are aware of as you do a lot of deep dives into material, these are not the most known characters in the world and haven't shown up in any media for the past 25 years. I wouldn't presume anyone would be able to spot the character in a crowd of chibi character from a rough jpeg on IGN from the default picture we have of the character on wikipedia. Can you clarify this?
Thanks. Andrzejbanas (talk) 03:23, 19 March 2026 (UTC)
:*Citation consistency is a very valid argument. One thing brought up several times in reviews even at a GAN level is that some citations are missing details others are not. At a FAC level, I have never seen a requirement for location or editor names, but I have seen ISSNs and wikilinks, and in the absence of ISSNs another identifier that can help confirm the source.
:*I feel version implies it's more a direct version of the game akin to a port. The game itself is not just the first game with chibi graphics, as it does include new characters and different characterizations. Maybe a better term is necessary, but that's my argument there.
:*As for the last point, there are some cases where a citation just isn't possible with prose and a character's presence in a title or how they appear can fall under WP:SKYISBLUE ↗. This has been valid reasoning across multiple GANs. Granted box art is not the best source, which is why I acknowledged replacing it with another ref was better. But consensus tends to show it as valid.
:@Andrzejbanas: I did a tweak on the referencing there, keeping the version wording but making it clear it was developed by Betop, and adding the relevant cite to the inline, moving the GB version to the end. I feel this will help people not get confused why the GB version is being listed separately and specifically.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 03:41, 19 March 2026 (UTC)

Inquiry

Hi, just a few questions.

I appreciate the feedback on the Domina page and I agree that I'd ''love'' to see her get a page, but obviously it needs to be up to Wikipedia's standards which I wasn't aware my initial draft wasn't. Is there a set of guidelines for the specific niche of that articles, or just simply MoS? Just so I'm aware when editing/creating pages like that and the process doesn't repeat itself. I'd eventually like to have a proper page formatted for her as well as others, but as said, properly done.

Apologies if this isn't the area to ask, I just see you're knowledgable on the topic. Tomlesss (talk) 05:26, 4 April 2026 (UTC)
:@Tomlesss Oh no it's fine, I was just a bit surprised to see the article. Generally you want to illustrate how the character was received outside of gameplay, in regards to their design and other factors. While gameplay can work, like with Emre there, you want to show it in a discussion outside of the scope of the game. Think like how Bastion or Torbjorn affected how people approached the game early on (and the latter in regards to the perception of turret users in such shooters). Right now Domina doesn't have that. The best bits I found for her was an IGN article that's mostly gameplay, and a blurb from Jade King of TheGamer discussing her sexuality.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 05:50, 4 April 2026 (UTC)

::That makes sense, I appreciate the feedback and I presume the same can be said for other characters on future articles? Either way, I'll keep it in mind for future contributions and in the meantime, I'll keep scouring for proper citations in regards to things beyond gameplay for her, and while to not get too ahead of the game, potentially future pages. I always appreciate pointers and criticism. Thanks again for the explanation. Tomlesss (talk) 23:43, 8 April 2026 (UTC)

AFC decline at Draft:Polymnia laevigata ↗

Hey @Kung Fu Man, are you able to elaborate on your decline here ↗? It doesn't read as an essay to me, and doesn't look like it's drawing its own conclusions or presenting original research. The formatting of the included references are a bit of a mess, but general references (rather than inline citations ↗) are usually acceptable for species articles (especially stubs). nil nz 23:44, 13 April 2026 (UTC)
:{{ping|Nil NZ}} That a bit news to me, because from my understanding any opinions or particularly broader observations usually have to be attributed to a source. Especially when it comes to stuff like "it's not especially well known"; that's the sort of informal statement where it makes me want to go "okay, but who's saying that?" and worry it may be WP:OR ↗ otherwise, even as a reader.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 23:53, 13 April 2026 (UTC)
::Ah I getcha now, yeah I can see how that line is an issue. In this case, I think the Verifiability decline ↗ would have been a better option (contains a statement not attributed to a reliable source), rather than the essay decline, which is usually reserved for when the entire draft (rather than a single line) appear to be original research. But in either case, I agree it's not quite ready for mainspace yet. nil nz 00:12, 14 April 2026 (UTC)

Context regarding Draft:CWC

I'm aware of the history surrounding CWC-related articles. The article at Draft:CWC ↗ was created following a significant influx of GNG-compliant sources at Wikipedia:Source assessment/CWC ↗, alongside several pages about CWC being created on non-English Wikipedias in the past year. These sources contain sections that, in particular, affirm CWC's notability outside of harassment they have received; they also cover CWC in different contexts than the controversy in 2021, which was the main reason the page could not be created according to the source assessment page. As of today, the page has found 7-8 GNG-compliant sources about CWC that affirm their notability, written in four separate contexts.

The draft was written using the pseudonyms 'CWC' and 'C C' in place of their actual name until if and when it were to be published, per longstanding consensus from the source assessment page. If you'd be willing to let me resubmit it, I can change the naming convention used if that was the main issue. Otherwise, I'm not sure why it was rejected aside from precedent that's no longer accurate; I can't tell what rule the article breaks. Cerrathegreat (talk) 11:02, 3 May 2026 (UTC)
:@Cerrathegreat Alright, I apologize because I assumed that the shortening was an attempt to circumvent.

Character additions to Mario and Luigi ↗

Hi! Thank you for the additions to the article. Do you know what was intended to be contained within the 'Nintendo Power' citation? It's undefined currently. Sorry if you were aware of it and hadn't gotten around to fixing it – just thought I'd ask since the article is currently undergoing a GA review, and I'm currently a little too busy to find the source again myself. Thanks! '''''Squitor!!!'' (say hi, i won't bite)''' 22:58, 27 May 2026 (UTC)
:@Squitor I'm sorry about that, I did a direct cut from the character list and missed that one, and wasn't aware that was undergoing a GAN to boot. It's probably for the best too; looking up what it said it never mentioned his engrish or his catchphrase, so someone must've cited it wrong years ago. I replaced it with a Nintendojo ref, which should pass as a reliable source per WP:VG/S ↗. Sorry again for the complication.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 03:06, 28 May 2026 (UTC)
::That's ok! I'm sorry I couldn't help out myself. Thank you for the additional work, much appreciated! :) '''''Squitor!!!'' (say hi, i won't bite)''' 11:30, 28 May 2026 (UTC)

CCC game

I will shortly be drafting a new entry from scratch at User:Piotrus/Fate/Extra CCC, but for now I translated the ja wiki article here, at User:Piotrus/CCC. It has some usuable content (infobox seems fine, development and system are mostly referenced, staff seems useful but has no references ATM), but later is likely too fancrufty in the character list. How much would you cut from it? I am thinking that it needs to be pruned a lot, maybe by 80-90%? I think we can keep the plot summary. Do you think it is acceptable to reference the plot (including the shortened characters) with primary source (the game itself?)? As far as I can tell it is accurate (I haven't played the game, but I watched pretty much all of English YouTube reviews / discussions of the game and what ja wiki has is, unsurprisingly overall, correct, so the issue is not errors but too much funcruft...).

I am also wondering about the second part of ja wiki 'Adaptations and related media' section. The manga part seems well referenced, but the the drma cd/other works/collabs aren't. Cut?

I do want to DYK the resulting article when it is finished, so can't have unreferneced content... Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:47, 31 May 2026 (UTC)

:PS. I am done with my main draft at User:Piotrus/Fate/Extra CCC. The only thing I'd like to add is the plot section from the ja wiki (my CCC sandbox). The character list seems too fancrufty here, but I think the plot section would be useful. But - can we source it to the game? What are the acceptable practices in the video game plot summaries you are familiar with? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 13:22, 31 May 2026 (UTC)
::Not ignoring you man, just got a busy day today, gimme a little while to respond.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 13:24, 31 May 2026 (UTC)
:::Thank you for the ping. Take your time, busy day for me as well :)
:::On another topic, looking at your sandbox and the AfDs above, I have to say I am surprised Marvel Rivals characters can be notable. Well, live and learn :) (Although my personal preference is to merge all Marvel variants of a character into one article... but it does seem my POV here is in minority; a while ago I argued and mostly failed to merge some MCU articles back to their parents... shrug). Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 08:13, 1 June 2026 (UTC)
::::Emma I feel is definitely borderline, but that guy went too hard. There's a weird mindset that discussing sexualized characters on the wiki = bad and I'm at a loss about it because it's one of the most heated discussions on the site.
::::As for CCC, it's looking good. It's probably a good thing to finally have redirect anchors for some things.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 13:23, 1 June 2026 (UTC)
:::::Any thoughts on whether we can use the long plot summary and reference it to the game itself? Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 15:50, 1 June 2026 (UTC)
::::::You can, but I would probably try to cut things down where possible. WP:PLOT does work best with game articles. I would definitely put at least some details for the characters there in a short list; I know you're more keen on a separate massive list, but right now with a basic list in the article itself it helps someone looking them up have a better frame of reference and fit Apocrypha/Samurai Remnant's handling.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 15:54, 1 June 2026 (UTC)
:::::::Thank you. Done and DYK-submitted at Fate/Extra CCC ↗, if you have a time for a c/e pass, I'd appreciate it (it probably could use a fair use cover?). I'll try to tackle Last Encore and Apocrypha anime entries (and Mordred) in the near future. Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here 04:12, 4 June 2026 (UTC)

My new article on Fate/Extra Last Encore ↗.

Mauga

I noticed that you renominated Mauga (Overwatch) ↗ and I'm glad to see it, but you haven't addressed all of the issues from the last review even if you removed citation needed templates. Are you still planning to fix those problems? Edward056686 (talk) 20:32, 20 June 2026 (UTC)
:I feel some of them are a bit questionable on how you approach them Edward, like WP:THESKYISBLUE ↗ works to define what a character is wearing for the reader as long as the specifics aren't too hard, and some of the other bits you asked to remove were fine in other GANs.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 02:11, 21 June 2026 (UTC)
::So basically, you just want a new review that won't object to these things? I don't what kind of articles you've nominated before, but it doesn't seem like a lot to ask you to remove rambling unsourced descriptions or correct objectively low-quality prose. It would have taken less work to improve the article than to fail and renominate it yourself. Edward056686 (talk) 07:58, 21 June 2026 (UTC)
:::I think I would prefer a more open minded editor. Tidying prose is fine, but I'd rather it remain the same standard in terms of included information as other articles in this vein, especially if you're going to try and frame it as "rambling".--Kung Fu Man (talk) 08:03, 21 June 2026 (UTC)
::::It might help to focus less on comparing the page to other things that you've written, and more on comparing it to the majority of good Wikipedia pages about fictional characters. Even if you don't like the idea of trimming content, you could at least copyedit the current version of the page so that the grammar is solid throughout.

DOA Tamaki

Following up on this comment I made earlier on your talk page, I decided to take a shot and put together an article for Tamaki (Dead or Alive) ↗. Your character articles for other Dead or Alive and Overwatch characters were a huge help, so thank you for that! I think it would be rude of me to grab the material you gathered on your sandbox for her, so I wanted to invite you to migrate it to the article if you have the chance.
