Wikipedia:VG1000

Goals

• Improve the quality of existing articles related to video games, and to encourage more editors to improve general article quality and sourcing. Try to ensure that no article created or existing is unsourced, and try to ensure that every article has no unsourced statements and that Wikipedia:Citations are neatly drawn up and consistently formatted. The most important goal of the challenge is to try to see an overall improvement in quality and more consistency in articles in any category.
• To encourage the creation of missing content and build a highly comprehensive coverage of video games on the English Wikipedia.
• To make existing articles on video games consistently of a minimum quality, with the ultimate goal of having 75% of articles covered by WP:VG Start-Class or better.
• Help cleanup existing articles, particularly stubs or high importance Start-Class articles.
• To generate a strong momentum for video game-orientated contests/editathons which fuel growth and attract people to develop articles which might not otherwise get much attention.
• If this challenge is successful, there might be the possibility of WMF funded contests like Wikipedia:WikiProject Video Games/The Video Game De-Stubathon or Wikipedia:WikiProject Video Games/The Video Game Core Contest. Similarly funded contests like Awaken the Dragon and the The West Country Challenge have proved to have been very successful in improving a large range of articles rapidly, but we'll see how this goes first.

Article achievements 1-1000

Please list articles you have improved here, place newer entries at the bottom of the list. You are free to list any article you wish related to video games. State whether it's a new article/stub/a destubbing, an article cleanup/expansion/ref improvement, Good/Featured Article etc, and credit yourself after it. Add entries to the list below with a # so the numbers will count. See the article list on the original 10,000 Challenge for how to list correctly. I hope that people can focus a lot on improving existing article quality on this, destubbing and cleanup, not just new articles. Please try to ensure that all entries are sourced with formatted citations and that there are no unsourced claims. Don't worry about italicising titles!
