:The non-English material may be receiving too much credit for this English-centric website if it's under the spotlight over the English edition material. Wikipedia has similar rule for the cover art from different regions here: [[wikipedia:wikipedia:WikiProject_Video_games/Article_guidelines#Cover_art]]. But I have this kind of mindset that there should be zero problem in the problem section to qualify 5 stars so I'm very unsure which one is right.

:I believe the standard, for example if you can play it in most regions and not in one, is to rate it according to the majority. If two regions don't work, and one does, rate it as not working. If two regions work, and one doesn't, rate it as working. But um, honestly, this is not something we run into often. By the time we created a ratings template (2011, 3.0 era), most of these issues were resolved. I looked at brawl's history, since Brawl didn't work in NTSC and NTSC-J until {{revision|4687}}, but all regions were working before 2.0, and well before we even had a ratings template! And we only even know that because in 2011 I went back and tested it to find when it was fixed as part of a clean up! Most of that knowledge was lost. :/ But anyway, my point is we don't have the best track record on this since it's so rare for us to encounter it; this wiki really kicked in after most of the glaring region differences were addressed, and by then it was safe for us to assume region parity. - [[User:MaJoR|MaJoR]] ([[User talk:MaJoR|talk]]) 13:39, 10 December 2015 (CET) | |||
