Review

Hello, I will be your GAN reviewer for this article. Below are my comments:

Some copyedits: Overall not bad, some grammar and stylistic suggestions below:

it originally released through -> it was originally released through
No version has been released in the West. -> No version has been released outside of Japan.
Maps hold a variety of different terrains, from flat plains to mountains: combined with a unit's own abilities, the environment affects movement. -> the colon in the middle should be a semi-colon, or at least: "from flat plains to mountains, and when combined with a unit's own abilities, affects movement."
and range and speed of movement on the battlefield: these classes range from axemen and swordsmen to thieves -> separate into two sentences
Thracia 776 was created by Fire Emblem series developer Intelligent Systems: it was designed and written by series creator Shouzou Kaga, and produced by Takehiro Izushi. -> Thracia 776 was created by Fire Emblem series developer Intelligent Systems, designed and written by series creator Shouzou Kaga, and produced by Takehiro Izushi.
Kaga chose her after being favorably impressed by her drawing abilities, bringing her on board for both Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776. ->Kaga chose her after being favorably impressed by her drawing abilities and brought her on board for both Genealogy of the Holy War and Thracia 776.
with Kaga commenting that it would have been simpler to create a completely original title if they had seen how big the project would become -> with Kaga commenting that it would have been simpler to create a completely original title if they had known how big the project would become
The Fatigue system was introduced to bring additional challenge. ->The "Fatigue" system was introduced to challenge players further.
This version released on January 22, 2000. -> This version was released on January 22, 2000.
reached 106,108 units as of 2002: this made Thracia 776 the worst-selling -> reached 106,108 units as of 2002, making Thracia 776 the worst-selling

Sources: All the sources look verifiable and reliable, just one suggestion:

Add a lang= and trans-title= parameter into the Japanese language sources to help with verification

Great work with this article! I don't see anything wrong with stability, neutrality, or broadness in its coverage. No copyvio issues found, but I am having trouble with the dab links tool; I trust you've run it? Let me know once you fix the issues above and I will take a look at the article again.

@Haha169: Thank you for the review! I have done all your suggested fixes (although I changed Fatigue to fatigue instead). I have added the lang parameter to Japanese sources, but as my Japanese knowledge is limited (and I was not the one adding them in the first place), I'd rather not attempt to do a direct translation of the titles. This is not a GA criterion anyway, so it should be okay for now.--IDV^talk 08:23, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Well-written:

I've given the article a copyedit and I'm satisfied that the prose surpasses WP:GA? guidelines and WP:MoS.

Verifiable with no original research:

There is no original research, everything is well sourced from verifiable sources, and no copvios found. I have found nothing in the article to be skeptical of, but be aware that editors may challenge certain aspects of the article (WP:NOENG) and translated quotes from the Japanese sources may be needed. But this is fine for now.

Broad in its coverage:

This article is comprehensive and stays on topic

Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.

This article is neutrally written and shows no apparent bias.

Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.

This article is stable and there is no edit-warring currently happening.

Apologies, I accidentally clicked the "save changes" button early by accident. You've done a great job with this article, so I'm passing it! Good work, and congrats! --haha169 (talk) 09:16, 12 January 2017 (UTC)[reply]
