The lead is too short, and needs to be expanded to summarise the whole article. See WP:LEAD.
The gameplay section is generally unsourced; only 1 out of 3 paragraphs is sourced
The story section is just a big mess. A series of bad merges have been done, and the result is a big mishmash of confusing plot information. Needs to be completely rewritten.
The reception section is too short; there has to be more reviews available for such a famous game.
Legacy section has a ((fact)) tag in it. Needs a cite.
The rerelease and rumored sequel section is tagged with a cleanup template. Needs to be addressed.
The references are badly formatted, and are hard to follow. I also believe there are same unreliable sources used in the article, linke YouTube.
If these issues have not been resolved in one week, I will delist the article of its GA status. The Prince (talk) 16:58, 25 January 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
One week has passed, and since these issues haven't been resolved, I'm delisting the article. The Prince (talk) 16:22, 1 February 2009 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I have read "Epic News" in Nintendo Power issue 77, pages 26-29, and so many citations pull from this article, that don't occur in the article at all. Citation 21, supposedly about a 60% completed game with turned based mario characters weilding weapons, cites this article, and this article says that they had a 70% completed game that played more like Zelda Link to the past.
This source was used correctly at other times in the article, but a large number of the citations all come from this Nintendo Power article, that does not cover what is stated. 64.33.139.18 (talk) 00:33, 31 October 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Leaving and left under Legacy seems like an odd choice as it's a completely new build, new developers, minor changes from the original version, etc. 2603:3020:2102:5400:48A9:43A6:88B6:F8BF (talk) 13:39, 19 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
We should only create a new page if there is sufficient stuff to write about based on coverage in reliable secondary sources to justify it. (That might be the case, I haven't checked.) Popcornfud (talk) 14:32, 19 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
I think that if the remake gets its own page, this page's name should be changed to "Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars" since that's the full name of the original and the remake takes the plain "Super Mario RPG" name. 136.54.66.53 (talk) 23:40, 20 November 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]

Oppose - The Switch remake, aside from some extra content, is pretty much a faithful remake of the original SNES release. Everything about the remake could be talked about here on the article, much like how ProtoDrake did with his work on the Live A Live article.

Oppose for now. The right way to do this is to use the sources to expand the section in the existing article. If it gets to a point where there's a lot of good content and the section is getting big, then split the article. Popcornfud (talk) 22:39, 1 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
Oppose - Metroid Prime: Remastered is a section within the original Metroid Prime article. - Richiekim (talk) 21:28, 7 December 2023 (UTC)Reply[reply]
