Potential GA demotion

An "empty section" tag is unacceptable for a GA, and it has been there since 2022. This article would therefore be quickfailed if nominated today. QuicoleJR (talk) 16:53, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I have now also tagged a few other issues with the article. QuicoleJR (talk) 17:05, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Pokémon Red, Blue, and YellowPokémon Red, Blue and Yellow – The second comma is unnecessary, so we can remove it per WP:CONCISE. Popcornfud (talk) 19:38, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

  • Oppose For me, I find the second comma to be necessary (see Oxford comma), but more importantly, removing the comma does not actually make a meaningful difference. CONCISE is not a great argument for such tiny changes. QuicoleJR (talk) 19:53, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Per the Wikipedia MOS (MOS:OXFORD), editors can use or not use Oxford commas, but articles should be consistent about using one or the other.
    The article does seem to use Oxford commas at least some of the time (eg in the sentence a comprehensive Pokémon encyclopedia, by capturing, evolving, and trading to obtain all 151 creatures), so that might be an argument for preserving it in the title.
    I ordinarily don't care either way about Oxford commas — but I personally think brevity is important enough for article titles that even the removal of a single character is a worthwhile change. Popcornfud (talk) 19:59, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'll add that this is not a case where the comma removes any ambiguity, though. Popcornfud (talk) 20:02, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose - The removal of a single character is not a degree of brevity that makes a difference in any way that matters in terms of WP:CONCISE and is in contravention to MOS:OXFORD which allows for either convention. - Aoidh (talk) 20:34, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  • Oppose move. That's not a valid reason to remove the Oxford comma. O.N.R. (talk) 23:55, 7 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - stretch to interpret WP:CONCISE in this way. Stick to the current usage. – Pbrks (t·c) 01:36, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Oppose - per MOS:OXFORD. (Oinkers42) (talk) 02:17, 8 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
