I'm not sure what your crazy nom for lingo is referring to, but I think Global Smasher Compendium a top-notch article. -- Randall00 05:19, February 19, 2007 (GMT)

Oh, I see, "Item". Gotcha. Sure! -- Randall00 05:21, February 19, 2007 (GMT)

Nom is nominated, I think -- Bean 06:42, February 19, 2007 (GMT)

That's correct. – Smiddle ( Talk • Conts ) 09:08, February 19, 2007 (GMT)

This is pretty much consensus, agreed? – MaskedMarth ^{(t c)} 20:22, February 21, 2007 (GMT)

In any case we need to improve the opening text of "items" and beef it up a little by the end of this week. – MaskedMarth ^{(t c)} 20:43, February 21, 2007 (GMT)

Global Smasher Compendium

• Nom & for, In addition to being a well-written article, it's also an important one to expose to the masses. -- Randall00 16:00, February 23, 2007 (GMT)
• Against. Parts read like a mix between a help file and a guide, others are more encyclopedic. Images should probably be thumbnailed, and there are some that I don't think belong at all. Besides that, I think right now it's important that we highlight articles that will help newcomers see what we hope all articles will look like, and even if I didn't see any problems with this one, it's not very helpful in writing an article about a character or a stage. --Kirby King 17:23, February 23, 2007 (GMT)
• Against, what KK said. It's more of a guide. One of the first things in the article are download links, and in the end there are lot of images. Also, the word "you" and imperative verb moods are overused. – Smiddle ( Talk • Conts ) 17:29, February 23, 2007 (GMT)
• Against, per KK and AltAcnt. Though, I think GSC could be a potential candidate if its focus was on its history/significance instead of how to use it and the system requirements. – MaskedMarth ^{(t c)} 17:37, February 23, 2007 (GMT)
  • kk, how about now? :^) -- Randall00 21:56, February 23, 2007 (GMT)
    • No. Still, there are a lot of you's, and imperative moods. Also, there are two translations to work on. I can help you with the Swedish one, but I'm a very poor French speaker. – Smiddle ( Talk • Conts ) 22:36, February 23, 2007 (GMT)
