# Talk:Ayla (Chrono Trigger)

Will Someone put up descriptions of the single techs please. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Guardian of Light (talk • contribs) .

What is the source for the Chrono Trigger V-Jump Player's Guide ref? I think you need to put English-translated quotes of that ref in the References because as it is the statements are very hard to verify. For example one of the sentences say "Ayla's hair was originally straight, but graphic designer Masanori Hoshino wanted her hair to be a "wilder, wavy style," so they had Toriyama change it", and the source used is V-Jump, but if I go read the Tsushin link there is a similar quote of Masanori Hoshino talking about Ayla's "wilder, wavy hairstyle"... so is this a mistake you meant to use Tsushin as the source or do both V-Jump and Tsushin mention this anecdote? In both cases there would be less confusion if we had an English link for V-Jump... Pietro Nelli (talk) 21:09, 6 October 2019 (UTC)

Looking into it, I can elaborate on these. First off, I'm not sure what you mean with the "Famicom Tsushin" link. Indeed, shmuplations includes the hair bit in the article, but as it says on the sidebar, many details are mentioned in multiple sources. The owner of Shmuplations was able to find the Famicom Tsushin and verify the bit about her being Tokita's favorite character to create, but was not able to find the direct source of the other information. However, I was able to source the hair bit to VJump Magazine after finding translations of Toriyama's notes, which would suggest to me that the hair bit was merely referenced multiple times. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 00:02, 7 October 2019 (UTC)
I'm also very unsure of other edits of yours. Why are you removing The Escapist as a source, and why do you remove the note about Tokita creating her when the detail of him basing her on another person is verified? It would be strange for someone to say that when the character was not created by them. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 00:10, 7 October 2019 (UTC)

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)
It is reasonably well written.
a (prose, spelling, and grammar):  b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists): 

It is factually accurate and verifiable.
a (reference section):  b (citations to reliable sources):  c (OR):  d (copyvio and plagiarism): 
Who is Michael P Williams. I see he wrote books in the past but I don't know if he's credibly or note-worthy. He's the only source I'm not sure about.
It is broad in its coverage.
a (major aspects):  b (focused): 

It follows the neutral point of view policy.
Fair representation without bias: 

It is stable.
No edit wars, etc.: 

It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.
a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales):  b (appropriate use with suitable captions): 

Overall:
Pass/Fail: 

I'll be reviewing this article. This one shouldn't take long.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 14:54, 29 October 2019 (UTC)
The source is more uplifted through the publisher, Boss Fight Books, rather than Williams himself. Basically as though he wrote for IGN or Polygon. - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 09:02, 2 November 2019 (UTC)

Here is some clarifying information about BFB: [1] - Bryn (talk) (contributions) 09:17, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
Ok. in that case, it does seem like a note-worthy mention. I'll give it a pass now.Blue Pumpkin Pie (talk) 20:15, 2 November 2019 (UTC)
