#{{User|RandomBob-omb4761}} This article is missing several images, also, it has upcoming DLC features which will make the page need major rewriting when released. | |||
#{{User|Mario}} Needs a few sprucing up. The controls table is sloppy and otherwise hard to quickly comprehend. The gameplay section needs actual information on how Mario Kart 8 controls instead of a single sentence of "It has the same controls as the previous game." But anyhow, I'll get on it later, this is my most concerning problem right now. UPDATE: The Online section has a severe lack of details. It may or may not work like Mario Kart Wii's or Mario Kart 7's, but it's hard to tell either way. That's bad. Articles can't be featured with a lack of information now, huh? | #{{User|Mario}} Needs a few sprucing up. The controls table is sloppy and otherwise hard to quickly comprehend.

#{{User|3D Player 2004}} per Mario, DLC is coming out for the game soon as well which will cause the article to become more outdated over time. | #{{User|3D Player 2004}} per Mario, DLC is coming out for the game soon as well which will cause the article to become more outdated over time. | ||
#{{User|Time Turner}} Besides the Gameplay section missing information and the table being sloppy (so basically per Mario), the Characters section is a bit bland to me, at least in comparison to previous MK articles like [[Mario_Kart_Arcade_GP_2#Characters|Mario Kart Arcade GP 2]] and [[Mario_Kart_DS#Drivers|Mario Kart DS]].

Their statistics are also placed several statistics below the characters's names when it could probably be organized together. The "other" section of characters is rather vague as well. Are these obstacles on stages, or spectators on the bleachers, or do they help or interfere during the races? Having, at the very least, different lists for their roles would be helpful. | ||

#{{User|Mario}} All the problems the user has noted are little help because they are extremely vague. ''What'' images are missing exactly? We can use perhaps one good gameplay image. Also, upcoming information has no bearing on the quality of a featured article unless the information, once is released, is covered so sloppily or incomplete, the article has to be unfeatured. | |||
#{{User|Tsunami}} Which images are missing? I'm seeing every image we need. If the article is partly upcoming, it doesn't mean it is banned from featuration. The upcoming templates is just a warning that, if not updated, the article may get outdated, NOT an improvement tag (though per Baby Luigi, it's still missing info) But I'm not expecting any major rewrite... | |||

DLC shouldn't be any concern for this article's status. Once the DLC is out, we cover the information as normal, simple as that. It's only when the coverage is severely lagging ''after'' the DLC is released when the article should be considered unfeatured. So stop resorting to that argument and start focusing on the article's present state. {{User:Mario/sig}} 16:09, 18 October 2014 (EDT) | DLC shouldn't be any concern for this article's status.
