- Lead says "computer games" infobox says "video games", any good reason they're not the same?
- " 1989[1]" ref not needed in the infobox as it's referenced in the article.
- Any reason TIMEQUEST is in caps? the article doesn't treat it that way.
- "based on the novel" eponymous novel?
- " rising without a similar rise in" avoid repeat, maybe "similar increase in"?
- " Bob Bates and Mike Verdu.[7] Bates and Verdu" repetitive, perhaps " Bob Bates and Mike Verdu.[7] The duo..." or similar.
- "r Infocom.[6] a leader" probably should be a comma, not a full stop.
- "after years of rising costs" it makes it sound like an age, but it was three years.
- "Activision ultimately closed Infocom" is ultimately adding anything here?
- No need to link common words like "author".
- No need to repeat people's first names if there's no ambiguity after the first use.
- No need to link common words like "novel".
- Don't use hash (#) to mean "number" per MOS.
- "Computer Gaming World's " 's shouldn't be in italics. And use {{'s}} to stop the apostrophe crashing into the last "d".
- LucasArts is overlinked.
- "publisher Random House,[14][12]" order.
- " a blessing and a curse" not really encyclopedic in tone, is it a quote?
- "compact disc" is overlinked.
- "The Wheel of Time in 1999, a first-person action game" all three overlinked.
- No need to link New York or France.
- All the spaced hyphens in the table (e.g. "... World - Adventure...") should be en-dashes.
- Table needs a caption, row and col scopes for accessibility.
- Online refs should have at least one of publication date and access date.
- Avoid SHOUTING in ref titles.
- "Bytes - Issue" should be an en-dash, not a hyphen, check others.
- The defunct date (infobox) and defunct category (2004) don't appear in the prose nor referenced.
That's it for a quick first review. On hold for now. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 19:42, 7 March 2021 (UTC)
Thanks a lot for the review and suggestions. I incorporated all of them. I also gave a good look over the ref section and the table for formatting. Let me know if I missed anything. I can keep chipping away. Shooterwalker (talk) 02:13, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
- No, I think it's all good. I made a couple of minor tweaks but I'm happy this passes GA. Cheers. The Rambling Man (Stay alert! Control the virus! Save lives!!!!) 09:32, 8 March 2021 (UTC)
