Lead

  1. I'm concerned about the claim that it's a "retcon" of the Yoshi's Island ending. While I would agree that this is likely a retcon, that it is a retcon is not mentioned in the article.
  2. No need for citations in the lead
  3. The use of multiple babies in Yoshi's Island DS is not mentioned in the article, making me question why Baby Mario being the only baby questionable as to why it's given so much real estate in the lead. I would recommend dropping this and discussing how the game plays with eggs and other such moves, as well as how Baby Mario functions.
  4. I feel like the lead could be a little meatier; consider expanding on dev info.

Infobox

  1. The article does not mention that Nintendo was its publisher outside the lead and infobox
  2. Is there any source on the director?
  3. Is there any source on the first producer?
  4. Is there any source on the artist?
  5. I would recommend mentioning the composer in the article
  6. Should mention the genre in Gameplay
  7. The Australian release date is given two different dates, one in the article and one in the infobox

Reception

  1. Nintendo Selects mention should be in sales figures, and the conflation of critical reception to this label should be removed, as they are not related and the association is not covered in the RS attached.
