* The Walkthrough is just one page covering the tutorial, with the rest of the subpages under the Gameplay heading. Not sure if that's good or bad. It's a procedurally generated game so I'm not sure what you'd put under the Walkthrough heading.--[[User:Henke37|Henke37]] ([[User talk:Henke37|talk]]) 17:29, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

**I think the Walkthrough page in general is pretty moot for games that have a running campaign and such. Arcade games like [[Zaxxon]] or [[Ms. Pac Man]] only need a single Walkthrough page. On the other hand, more modern games - especially those with a story-driven campaign consisting of multiple missions - can afford to have subpages for each mission level, mostly negating the point of the base Walkthrough page. So I think you could easily get rid of the default walkthrough page for a number of modern games as a result. --[[User:Arrow|Arrow]] ([[User talk:Arrow|talk]]) 17:52, 11 November 2022 (UTC)

  • To be honest, I'm not entirely sure how I feel about this guide. On one hand, it's complete in every way it can be. I suppose I'm more worried about upkeep, as the game is changing a fair bit at the moment. At the same time, however, I'm super glad that I've been able to hit the top spot on Google with this guide, and reception overall seems to be pretty positive. I'm nominating the guide, but on the other hand I don't want to break my "Featured Guide" streak by having it be added to Unsuccessful requests haha...Arrow (talk) 16:53, 9 September 2021 (UTC)

This is probably the most complete Earthbound guide I've seen, - That Funky Demon Pikachu 18:51, 9 May 2022 (UTC)

Could benefit from some additional images before moving to support. Arrow (talk) 15:31, 21 June 2022 (UTC)

  • To be honest, the EarthBound wiki is epic. Whoever edited this, they clearly had many sources that they used to make it. It has everything. I feel that this guide is probably the most complete one I've seen on Earthbound. If anything, this should probably be made a stage 5 wiki. - That Funky Demon Pikachu 18:51, 9 May 2022 (UTC)
  • The guide is pretty well laid out, but it seems to be very low on images. EarthBound/Photograph Locations especially needs some. Most other things seem to have good coverage in text. -- Prod (talk) 14:42, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
    • That's true, the pictures are pretty much nonexistent, but the walkthrough section is absolutely amazing. - That Funky Demon Pikachu 17:29, 10 May 2022 (UTC)
  • I think Prod has the idea - a featured guide generally has a good number of images in conjunction with text. If it was raw text, then it's not too different from the old text file guides that SW was designed to replace. I'll move to support once more images are added. Arrow (talk) 15:31, 21 June 2022 (UTC)
