I'll review this article. Alexeyevitch(talk) 01:17, 9 June 2026 (UTC)Reply
@Alexeyevitch Thank you for your review, please see my comments responses to your suggestions below.
1a.
  • The game released in Japan on September 27, 2007 → The game was released in Japan on September 27, 2007
    • Done
  • The game received mixed reception → The game received mixed reviews
    • Done
  • mingame - clearly a typo
    • Fixed
  • DS' microphone → DS's microphone
    • Done
  • brush the dust off by blowing into the DS' microphone to blow dust off - seems repetitive
    • Agreed, cleaned up now.
  • shops will be four-stories high → shops are four-stories high
    • Done, also wikilinked to Storey.
  • After successfully serving a number of customers and receiving a sufficiently high rating - wordy
    • Removed "a number of".
  • Also, what is is the difference between 'multiplayer" and "true multiplayer"?
    • Changed from "true" to "real-time multiplayer", as that is what the reference is referring to. Also added wikilink for Multiplayer.
  • get back on their feet - informal wording.
    • Reworded.
  • towns → town's
    • Done
  • at an MSRP of $29.99 what's that?
    • Retail price in USA. I'll actually remove that and the other prices listed though because of (WP:NOTPRICE).
  • the games presentation → the game's presentation
  • a total off 249,830 - typo
    • Fixed
  • Also, I would recommend correcting the dates in the references to MDY instead of YDM (e.g. 2019-02-21 to February 21, 2019)
    • Added the template and cleaned up references. Also added translated titles to non-English sources, and cleaned up some other sources.
1b.
  • costumes purchased for your partner Tamagotchi, MOS:YOU says Avoid addressing the reader using you or your
    • Fixed
  • MOS:NUMERAL says Integers from zero to nine are spelled out in words.
    • Fixed.
  • The game doesn't feature true multiplayer → The game does not feature true multiplayer (MOS:CONTRACTION)
    • Fixed
  • § Plot is in accordance with MOS:VGPLOT
2b.
  • the references are mostly reliable. I see that the "Cite Unseen" tool is flagging VideoGamer for being unreliable, but they are not used for any strong claims, so in this case I think they are fine.
    • I was also curious about the VideoGamer source. It's listed as a Situational source according to the Video Games Wikiproject, but says it is considered generally reliable from 2004 to 2017. The article cited is from 2008, so I believe it is reliable.
2c.
  • [3] source link appears to be dead
    • This URL has now been fixed
4.
  • sold poorly is quite strong wording, I would instead say had lower sales
    • Done
6b.
  • Captions are mostly sufficient, although I think the later part of the caption Mametchi wearing the Postal Worker costume [...] is excessive
    • Shortened this caption now.
