Puddle Reviews

Puddle Reviews was an article review service operated by . On December 16th 2018, Puddle Reviews was announced and created with the intention of being a reliable, long-lasting review service for new and old users alike to receive feedback, compliments and criticism on their articles.
Puddle Reviews was deprecated in Summer 2020.
 
==Description==
Puddle Reviews ranks articles based on two different subjects, which are essentially content & presentation. While I may not appreciate the idea of an article, it will still get a high rating if the presentation is good, and if I really like an idea and the presentation is sub-par, it may still receive a good rating.
Ratings are based on four different coloured stars, which are (from best to worst):
BRONZEWhile not necessarily bad, this article needs substantial work to be a high rank. Maybe there's not much detail, poorly formatted or something else is wrong.	SILVERA mostly satisfactory/good article that's just a bit rough around the edges. It would need a little more work to be a higher rank, perhaps more detail, or more unique formatting.	GOLDA high-quality, well-organised, creative article. A Gold Article might not be perfect in every way, but the bulk of it is well-written and interesting to read with a good use of templates and other unique elements.	PLATINUMPremium, near-perfect articles that I'd consider to be the best of the best, These articles have an aesthetically-pleasing and organised layout, with a good distribution of tables, images and other templates.
==Requirements==
In order to submit an article to be reviewed, users must ensure that their page meets all of the following criteria.
*The article must be longer than 2000 bytes (you can check your article's size in the history tab). If you submit a short, stubby article, I won't review it as it's just a waste of my time.
*Articles can be about almost anything, such as characters, games, items, franchises, universes, stories, etc. Bare in mind that story-driven articles will take considerably longer to review than gameplay and character-focused ones. Obviously, I won't review pages that aren't on mainspace.
*Articles don't have to be finished, but they should certainly be in a state where there's a good chunk of information in each of the main sections, especially if it's a game.
*Please note that in order for me to review an article, it's almost guaranteed that I will be applying some sort of constructive criticism towards it. If you can't deal with criticism, it's best you don't sign up.
*You can't submit an article until one week has passed since your last article was reviewed.
**If you want me to re-review the same article I've already reviewed, you must wait one month.
*You can only leave one article at a time to be reviewed.
== Why Isn't My Article Ranked Higher? ==
There could be a few things holding back your article from achieving a higher rank.
*Is your article nearing completion? I will very rarely award a Platinum or Gold rank to an article that's far from completion. That being said, articles don't have to be 100% finished in order to get a high rank.
*Does your article have a good balance of text and images? Text-heavy articles can be a bit of a drag to read, and articles that are too gallery-heavy can come across as low-effort. Make sure you've got a good balance between images and text in every section if you're expecting a high rank.
*Is your article visually impressive? Including tables, text boxes and infoboxes is one thing, but making them truly personalised with colors, outlines, gradients, shadows and images is what really makes high-quality articles stand out. Of course, it's important not to go overboard with these things.
*Is your article full of red links and missing images? Again, if you're missing large amounts of content, it will be difficult for me to award a high mark. Subpages are fine but if you've got a lot planned that aren't actually there, that shows that your article isn't very complete, and you should maybe think twice about submitting it to review.
*Is your article grammatically sound? Everyone makes mistakes and almost every big page on the wiki is certain to have errors, but if parts of your article just straight up doesn't make sense, has repeated spelling errors or even poor grammar in the title, marks may be deducted.
