Castle of the Winds[edit]

I think this article will be ready to be featured soon! However, it could use information about:

The graphics technology, and how it uses icons as tiles!
The mathematical nitty-gritty of gameplay mechanics.
An expanded Strategy section.

Based on the wording of your request, you might have better results by taking this article to Wikipedia:Requests for expansion or consulting with Wikipedia:WikiProject Computer and video games. If you did intend to place this article on peer review in preparation of submission to WP:FAC, then you may wish to consult the featured article criteria. The most obvious issue with the article as it currently stands is a lack of cited references. It is usually much easier to document the sources used while the article is still being written rather than tracking down references after the text of the article has stabilized. The article should also be reworked so that the majority of the text is in paragraph form instead of the current bulleted list format, and the {{infobox cvg}} template at the top needs to be filled in. --Allen3 ^talk 22:37, 19 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]

A few pointers;

Too many lists. The article currently reads more like a walkthrough. Try removing the lists, and merging the first five heading under a heading of Gameplay.
There are no references either.
Perhaps it would be better to incorporate the contents of the now public domain section into the lead section.
Add the system requirements section to the infobox, instead of it being in the article.
remove the glitches section - unsuitable for a game article, better off in Wikibooks.

Also, refer to the computer and video games wikiproject. It helps. LordViD 20:33, 20 November 2005 (UTC)[reply]
