After working on the article with User:Jinnai and having it recieve a copy-edit, I believe it meets Feature Article requirements. GamerPro64 (talk) 20:26, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- Dabs, (lack of) dead links and alt text look fine. TheWeakWilled (T * G) 20:31, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- Some problems in the alt text, particularly the second one. Remember that WP:ALT#Verifiability requires that a non-expert is able to verify the alt text from the image alone; I am not able to verify much of the alt text from that image. Ucucha 20:39, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- Which image(s) needs to have its alt text improve? GamerPro64 (talk) 20:42, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- The second one. The third is fine, and the first I just edited. Ucucha 20:46, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- I think I improved the second picture's alt text. GamerPro64 (talk) 21:00, 13 February 2010 (UTC)
- That's better yes. I made some further edits (took me some time to realize that by "opinions", you meant "options"...), and I'm satisfied with the alt text now. Ucucha 21:09, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

A set of comments draws near! A fittingly long article for an important series (Toriyama later worked on Chrono Trigger, a favorite game of mine, as well), with some oddities in my opinion:
- (section "Music") "Several albums of Dragon Quest music have been released since the original game was made, the first coming out in 1986, based on Dragon Quest's music."—I don't like the structure here. There's the "plus -ing" thing, but it feels weird in general (as though it were a comma splice but too short to be split into two sentences) as well.
- (section "Manga and anime") "Additionally, The Road to Dragon Quest ( Error: {{nihongo}}: text has italic markup (help)) is a manga based on the creators of Dragon Quest published by Enix."
- Is the Japanese (kanji) title available? (The romanized title should be in the third parameter, but occupies the kanji field instead.)
- Shouldn't the whole title, from "The Road to" onward, be italicized?
You say this received a copyedit, but I saw enough other things to tweak (besides the ones above) that I think it needs another. See the article history. --an odd name 03:55, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
