Miscellania and Etceteria

Original nomination: Miscellania and Etceteria

Now that Managing Miscellania has been split from the page, the page is a bare shell of what it once was. It is now also probably going to be split into different articles for misc and etc. It is currently rather a nothing article, and when it is split it will need some serious work to gut it back to AOTM standard.

Fishing, Magic, Hunter and Mining

Original nominations: Fishing,Magic, Hunter, Mining

I think that all Skill pages need something on the history of the skill, like Summoning history. It would be an important part of the page, and something that few other fansites would have. This would result in Fishing, Magic, Hunter and Mining not being included. I feel that the Hunter page is in need of clean-up currently anyway.

While Guthix Sleeps

While Guthix Sleeps... it's cluttered with all those unnecessary images, keeps switching from 2nd person to 3rd person, and it makes me feel claustrophobic...

Desert Treasure

Original nomination: RuneScape:Article of the Month/Desert Treasure (2)

Needs clean-up. I read through it and found it confusing. The headings make it very difficult to follow with no apparent rhyme nor reason behind them.

Trouble Brewing

Original nomination: RuneScape:Article of the Month/Trouble Brewing

Doesn't have any advice on how to play the game well, just the features of the game. So it needs strategies, tactics, etc. Also all the images on the page are SD which isn't good.

  • Support - as nominator Unicorn horn dust Evil Yanks talk 10:15, February 19, 2010 (UTC)
  • Support Per Yanks. Yea, Degen just said per some one. How about that?--Degenret01 08:46, February 24, 2010 (UTC)
  • Oppose - Lots of wonderful tactics and strategies on the minigame, also, what SD images? --Coolnesse 03:30, February 25, 2010 (UTC)
Sd images: File:Tb interface.png, File:Tb supply table.png, File:Tb hoppers.png, File:Tb pump.png, File:Tb finished rum.png and File:Trouble brewing glitch.jpg. There were 3 more SD images when I first wrote the thing above, though they have since been converted to HD. Also I still can't see any tactics/strategies, just the controls like stated in Brewin' guide. Unicorn horn dust Evil Yanks talk 05:04, February 25, 2010 (UTC)
  • Opppose - This is a truly superbly written article for an under-used mini-game. --Eucarya Talk 22:14, February 25, 2010 (UTC)
  • Oppose - This is a superbly written article with detailed information and the like MoomooYoshi 02:10, February 26, 2010 (UTC)
  • Slight Oppose - There's not a lot one can write about a minigame, and this article pulls it off pretty decently. But it's still so short... While I don't think this should be removed from the AOTMs, it definitely needs some work. Ancient talisman Oil4 Talk 21:24, February 26, 2010 (UTC)
  • Oppose HEAVILY - This is one of the best written articles on the entire wiki, the images are being converted to HD as we speak, and there is information on strategies, there is also enough on how to play the game well, we don't want to go too far like the above nomination Desert Treasure which has 9 different methods of killing 1 of the 4 bosses, I say leave it as it is.

Ullek

Original nomination: RuneScape:Article of the Month/2009#September

There is hardly any known information on the location, and it also lacks images. I personally have never been to the city, but there are no images of the inside!!! Not even OOO images of secret locations. Also the watersource there, what is that? I don't see an image. Sure, it give a nice brief history lesson, but many questions still exist. Jagex is bound to update the area! Such a large area has to be updated, and and article like this should not be AOTM.

  • Oppose - What are you talking about? This is a great article. --Coolnesse 17:49, March 14, 2010 (UTC)
  • Oppose - I agree with Coolnesse. This article is nothing short of brilliance. The history section is longer than any other town article, and it's one of the most informative there is.23:46, March 14, 2010 (UTC)
  • Oppose - I think that this article is what we should be aspiring for with all ruins articles. Since you were wondering, this is what Ullek is like now. I think this is a great article to showcase. Unicorn horn dust Evil Yanks talk 06:23, March 15, 2010 (UTC)
  • Oppose - He hasn't been in Ullek. The article is extremely good.  —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Cmunz (talk) on 00:59, March 17, 2010.

East Ardougne

Original nomination: RuneScape:Article of the Month/East Ardougne

As the template says, more should be added to the history template. While the history section is ok, it is not up to the standard of most of the other major city articles on the wiki.

Warped terrorbird

The desription of which are weak to an attack assumes there are only 3 types that exist. Whether they've been updated since nomination to have different features I don't know but it's not the easiest thing to understand. Could use pictures tomake the differences clearer

Edmyg 09:31, May 4, 2011 (UTC)

Support - literally tl;dr. Does not look good and doesn't attract people to read the actual text. Featured articles should be great for the text it has on it, not just useful for finding the drops of monsters on. We got enough of those articles. this one's just not good enough to be FA. (needs more (good) images too) JOEYTJE50TALKpull my finger 02:58, May 19, 2011 (UTC)

Support - Looks like any other monster article.  Tien  20:25, May 21, 2011 (UTC)

  • Strong support - These are just the comments I have of the lead section and info box:
    • Lead: "They require 56 Slayer and a Crystal chime to be killed." Who is they? At least 56 slayer? I think this sentence would be better if it were written like this: "Players need a Crystal chime and [at least] 56 Slayer to kill the monster."
    • The prose needs to be improved so that it is more readable.
    • "There are also three level 143 Warped terrorbirds that the player must fight near the end of The Path of Glouphrie quest; see here for a guide to that fight." "In addition" would be better than "also." The "see here for a guide to that fight" needs to be removed. Also, why must you fight them near the end of the quest? To complete the quest?
    • Expand the lead to add some other important facts about the Warped terrorbirds (the lead seems to suggest the level 81 terrorbirds are more common).
    • Info box: Under experience for killing, explain what the "620" experience is for.
    • There are two consecutive brackets in the infobox. Fix that. Smithing 21:54, May 22, 2011 (UTC)

  1. REDIRECT User:Urbancowgurl777/Signature 19:28, June 12, 2011 (UTC)
  • Support - First, I want to say it is not length that counts, but broadness and comprehensiveness. An article can still be small but be worthy of being featured in my opinion. My general comments:
    • Lead and info box: In the lead, it mentions that they appeared 25 December 2002, but it doesn't talk about that in the article. This should be included somewhere in the body, and expanded on.
    • The part where they appeared randomly on the ground about every six minutes should be cited. This is likely to be disputed (the news post says they dropped at random intervals [1]).
    • Market history: Needs citations, for example: "When first released, players valued the Santa hat at around 50k." needs to be sourced. It also contains too much unnecessary information, shorten it or remove it.
    • Trivia: Non-notable trivia needs to be removed.
    • Could more be said about the release and reception? Smithing (talk | contribs) 19:37, June 12, 2011 (UTC)
  • Support - Per all. Also, the article says that the hat provides a +3 Magic bonus. Is this an offensive or defensive bonus?  Tien  15:02, June 13, 2011 (UTC)

While Guthix Sleeps 2nd discussion

Article of the Month nomination

Some unsourced statements, including "It was, for a long time, considered to be the longest and hardest quest in RuneScape. However, with the release of new Grandmaster quests, it's lost this title; the general consensus is that Nomad's Requiem, featuring a boss battle with the level 699 Nomad, is now the most difficult." Needs a Development section (some info on that is listed [http://www.runescape.com/kbase/guid/while_guthix_sleeps_members here]). It has several grammar errors, some of the trivia belongs elsewhere in the article, and the single reference is missing parameters. Smithing (talk | contribs) 19:35, 18 June, 2011 (UTC)

We can. Some suggestions have already been offered. However, considering it has been open for over two months, and still not up to standards, I think delisting it is a good option now. Smithing (talk | contribs) 18:50, August 26, 2011 (UTC)

Miscellania

Kennith's Concerns

Original Nomination

It's definitely not one of our best articles, or even quest guides. More than half of it is written with bullet points.

Members

Original Nomination

The article is... to be honnest, an aweful one. Its comprised of many (incomplete) lists. in the "members only skills" section, the only one it talks about is summoning, in the level up table, many members only things are left out eg. cooking only has rocktails, sharks, and monkfish, (personnally i think that section needs to go). i could go on, but the article really feels more like a list than an acutal article, and it really dosnt feel like im reading a featured article.

  • Oppose - The article is highly comprehensive and a well laid-out read. The fact that Summoning is the only skill which contains in-depth information is because it also has an affect on a player's combat level, making it very significant information, and necessary to have on the page.

This might have been a good article a few years ago, but it's not one now. It's got a big lead, but then the equipment bonuses section is unsightly. And the Trimmed Capes section might be in-detail, but then there's a table and the end of the article. We have much better articles than this one.

Original Nomination

This might have been a great article 2 years ago, but in 2011, I wouldn't want this to be featured. It's a good article, and it goes in detail about Baxtorian, but there's just not enough on him. It's a relatively short article and it shouldn't be classified as "one of the best written".

The majority of this article is just a huge table with all the locations of Fairy rings. It has a good lead but that's really it. It has a small history, bad trivia, a bad gallery, a huge table, and that's the article. If it were nominated today, it wouldn't pass.

Lunar spells

Original Nomination

It's a good article, but our standards for FA have risen since it was featured. It has a good amount of information on Lunar spells and their history, but the majority of the article is a table. If it were to be nominated today, I don't think it would pass. I don't think that it's one of our best articles.

Original nomination

Horrible quest guide. Sure, its contents are OK, but it uses bullet points, poor lay-out and some makeshift bottom sections. Really not one of our best. It may have been good back then, but now it's not. Especially with the new policies.

East Ardougne

Original Nomination

It has a good lead and a nicle little section about it's history, but then the rest of the article is just lists. A list on ways to get there, a list of various POIs, a huge list of all the stores, a list of NPCs, and a list of quests. The first page is okay, but the rest isn't, and it shouldn't constitute a featured article.

Desert Treasure

Original Nomination

The article is quite a bit outdated, considering current standarts. it uses a lot of bullet points, and almost feels more like a quick guide, especially in the beginning.

  • Support - It is better after the rewrite, but still needs work.

God Wars

Frankly, this is a very weak page considering the tons of information that could be there. It has a relatively tiny history section and a long and very limited list of events. If every point in that list had a decent line, and there would be paragraphs about the outcome of the Wars, subconflicts etc. this would be much better. But it's deffo not up to the standard.

I should do that yes, but it'll be a truly MASSIVE project. Nearly every point in that list (and it's quite extensive) could have multiple paragraphs on it. It'd take days. In other words - I need help. PLus exams are coming next week, so I won't be able to do it. I'll get to it eventually. Maybe. Ish. Either way, it's definitely not a featured article in this state. 18px-Avatar.png Fswe1 26px-Brassica_Prime_symbol.svg.png 21:22, January 19, 2013 (UTC)

Dragonfire shield

Original nomination: Look 'ere, ye landlubber.
Reason: The article is fairly short and, aside from the introduction and how to obtain the shield, is rather devoid of information. Some images have been ickily placed and some of the wording seems... disagreeable. Even if that is fixed, I doubt this article will be able to get much more body, simply because there isn't that much to say.

Fishing

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
       <><                 

I've been wanting to do this for a while. Ever since I created User:The Mol Man/Fishing actually, where I realized that this article sucked.

Ya sure, it's got a lot of information (still is missing a whole bunch though), but it presents it so poorly. The syntax is so unengaging that I had difficulty reading it over one last time before I made sure I wanted to get it delisted.

I'll be honest: The article has potential, but no one is going to go forth and fix it. Not being a pessimist, just being realistic.

It's not worthy of being featured anymore... It's missing information, and, if that weren't enough, it makes a mockery of the English language with its subpar grammar and dull structure.

Any wordsmith can feel free to attempt a rewrite, but because none of you will, can we just delist it for now?

The first few fish players can catch require nets, except for crayfish, which require a crayfish cage. Fishing nets can only be used in the seas. Free players can only use small fishing nets while members can also use big fishing nets.

Caught fish may be cooked using a bunsen burner, and are often sold to other players because of their ability to heal hurt feelings. When a player has achieved level 99 in Fishing, they may purchase a pity hug from the evil guy inside the secret hideout of doom for 99,000 beers on the wall, one of which must be taken down and passed around."

Is this one of our best articles? No. Heck, it's not even one of our best quest guides. Far from it.

That's not really good and barely in line with RS:QSG.

Okay, so let's see. Of the three introductory paragraphs, the one with the most text contains only trivia. Further ahead, there's basically nothing interesting. Read the Dungeon section, for example.

Kalphite queen

Another such lovely article. It's a fine article for a boss, but to remain featured? Not quite. She hasn't got a history and nothing is done to make up for that; no physical description, no biological desription, nothing. Really, the first paragraphs only speak about her combat level and drops. Then there's a nifty list of how to reach Her Majesty, followed by a poorly formatted summary of her attacks. Oh, and a huge drop table, yay. Honestly, the best thing of that page is the gif of her transforming.

Barrows

The article is completely unreferenced, the coverage is poor, and the writing and organization of the article could be improved. I'll give some examples below.

Background
  • "It succeeded, for the brothers, who were in the front line, seemed invincible." Poor grammar.
  • "The brothers were grievously wounded in battle near the Great Vyrewall and thus the army set up camp just west of Meiyerditch." The prose could be improved. This would work better: "After the brothers were grievously wounded in battle near the Great Vyrewall, the army set up camp just west of Meiyerditch."
  • "Soon, the brothers died of their infectious wounds simultaneously in the army's camp." The brothers died at precisely the same time? That sounds unlikely; I would recommend referencing this claim if it is true.
  • "Sliske cast a magical spell on the crypts" What crypts?
  • "binding them to guard a very powerful artefact" The name of this artefact could be mentioned. I notice that in the article, "a very powerful artefact" links to the Barrows icon.
  • Explain who Zaros is. Why did Azzanadra want to establish communication with Zaros?
  • "Shortly after said ritual, which the adventurer attended with several Temple Knight allies, Sliske attempted to claim them in a similar way." In what way did Azzandra and the adventurer claim them in the first place?
  • "However, the Saradominist priest Akrisae Kolluym intercepted the spell, sacrificing himself and turning him into Akrisae the Doomed - the seventh wight." This sentence is a bit convoluted, and needs to indicate that Sliske turned him into Akrisae the Doomed.
  • "Akrisae joined the Barrows Brothers in their crypt, although, of course, he isn't a Barrows Brother himself." It isn't necessary to mention Akrisea is not a Barrows brother (I hope).
Other quick observations
  • The lead mentions the objective of the Barrows minigame, but this isn't mentioned or expanded on in the body.
  • Money making: An introduction to this section would be useful.
  • This section talks about "High level Barrows", but this isn't mentioned anywhere else in the article.
  • "The minigame is one of a few being updated completely, both graphically and minigame obstacles." Poor grammar. Also, this could be included in the "Graphical overhaul" section.
  • "Safespots were also affected by the update, and there are very few safespots to deal with the Barrows Brothers, all being in the catacombs only." These safespots aren't described anywhere else in the article. Smithing (talk | contribs) 02:44, September 16, 2013 (UTC)

I'm not able to accurately fix most of the problems I've noted above, since I'm not a member and can't play the Barrows minigame (I really have no interest in playing RS).

Well then feel free to make the changes, but if it isn't up to scratch then it needs to be removed and if need be renominated at a later date. Plus you assume that making the changes would bring it back up to FA status which is not necessarily the case, which would result in a massive waste of time fixing it only to have to delist it. Until such a time it should be removed if it's not FA status then renominated if it becomes FA status again. Template:Signatures/Ciphrius Kane 21:24, September 22, 2013 (UTC)

    • This article has absolutely no references. This makes it very inconvenient to try to verify the information in the "History" section if I don't know where this information is coming from in the first place.
    • "Transportation" section has several one sentence paragraphs. Perhaps some of these could be merged?
    • "Inhabitants": This section is empty. Even though it does link to another article, it would be nice if a summary of the information there were included in this article for comprehensiveness.
    • Parts of the article read like an advertisement, contrary to RS:NPOV. This is an encyclopedia, not a brochure. Examples:
      • "Its close proximity to an anvil makes it an excellent place to smith, rivalling areas such as Varrock and Yanille" [emphasis added]
      • "Keldagrim is an excellent location to begin searching for an item" [emphasis added]
      • "The upper level has several rooms where NPCS can spend the night and offers an excellent view of one of the River Kelda's main tributaries" [emphasis added]

Magic

This article is not very comprehensive, doesn't contain any references, and its syntax is poor. These are just a few examples of some of the problems in the article:

  • "Training Magic" It would be nice if a summary of the information in the linked article were included in the Magic article for comprehensiveness.
  • Information on how to cast a spell, including the autocast feature, could be explained. "In order to cast a spell, its spellbook must be active" is not very helpful.
  • The "Development History" and "The Canon of Magic" would benefit from references to help with the verification of the material. I can't verify "Jagex explained that the reduction of Magic experience in RuneScape 2 was due to the fact that runes were easier to obtain on the new version" if I don't know where the material came from.
  • "Development History"
    • Repetition: On this date, on this date, on this date,...
    • Some of the one-sentence paragraphs could be merged.

  • Support - It's essentially a list of tables. I'd rather watch that channel that shows only pictures of beaches than read the development history section ew... And "The Canon of Magic", which is the most ridiculous name ever, is very short and has very poor information in that's it's wrong for a good part. 18px-Avatar.png Fswe1 26px-Brassica_Prime_symbol.svg.png 18:11, February 12, 2014 (UTC)

While Guthix Sleeps

While it was a horrible task to go through the entire page to reformat all the pictures, lists, etc. correctly, I think we might be able to consider re-tagging. Lil cloud 9 00:12, April 27, 2010 (UTC)

Support - Spent about an hour or two earlier cleaning it out so I hope it looks a tad better now, full changes are on discussion. --Death 4210 00:18, May 7, 2010 (UTC)

Support - It's cleaned up, all right. --Coolnesse 21:15, May 25, 2010 (UTC)

Oppose for now The trivia section still has an awful of garbage and worthless mentions, as well as being exceedingly long. And some of it should be in the article. It is "almost" ready, but not yet.--Degenret01 00:46, June 19, 2010 (UTC)

Support - I visited the article, and read over most of it, and I think it's fantastic and the clean-up crew has done a spectacular job. I had also used this article as my guide in completing the quest, so no problems there either. Herblore cape (t) Born2bwild04 Divine spirit shield 16:43, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

Oppose needs a serious cleanup, too many tables, too long, repeat info that should be on other articles, such as pickaxes, ores, perhaps mining locations as well.--Degenret01 01:22, December 6, 2010 (UTC)

As the person who re-wrote the page into what you see today (and largely left the trivia and history sections alone), I can do that. --Andorin (Talk) (Contribs) 23:52, January 13, 2011 (UTC)

Desert Treasure

Original nomination: RuneScape:Article of the Month/Desert Treasure (2)

Delisting: RuneScape:Featured articles/Delist/Archive 1#Desert Treasure

I removed a lot of the long language and simplified some of the text, though I did leave in two or three methods per boss. Even though I didn't remove the other methods, I did shorten the text per method considerably.

Part of my rewrite was dealing with the long and confusing directions; hopefully they're better now. --LiquidTalk 18:39, January 23, 2011 (UTC)
