What about articles with incorrect information? Any of those, just post in the associated forum thread and we'll get to updating it when we can.

* So, the Metal Slug article actually needs quite a bit of stuff. Metal Slug XX, a quick mention of the Universal mobile games (they're all remakes of previous mobile titles) and the two pachinko titles ( Type-A and Metal Slug 3), the canceled MMO game Metal Slug Zero (there are no screens but you can find lots of concept artwork). As far as Metal Slug defense goes, should be worth metioning that it reuses the assets from a discontinued game ( Metal Slug Wars). Also worth mentioning characters cameos in more recent games (Neo-Geo Heroes, King of Fighters 2002 Unlimited Match and King of Fighters XIII). * Darius article should also cover Darius Burst Another Chronicle/Another Chronicle EX (EX adds in the Chronicle mode and EX mode) and the recent Darius Burst Chronicle Saviours. Since the AC mode in Chronicle Saviours is a port of Another Chronicle EX you can get it's screens from there. Would also be worth mentioning the connections between the series and Syvalion (mainly the three final bosses in Darius Force and the Dark Helios boss from Burst).

though HG101 still can't get ahold of that Revolution game since one has to be in South Korea to own it. Why would that stop us?  Good thing you mention it, though, cause it's shutting down in two weeks, so I shall dump a few hours into it before that... (Spoiler: It's garbage.)

That's awesome news, that game is a disgrace to the franchise (as well as Defense and Attack); though I wonder if you live in South Korea or had to do some hacker hoops to get ahold of a "copy" outside of that country?
P.S. I'm very well aware it's garbage from the very first day I saw the news about it.

We've got a Darius revamp nearly completed - the original article was almost completely tossed out and entirely rewritten, since it'll be featured on the cover of our next book.

You can easily find the game's apk by googling it. And the game is a mobile cash-in, what did you expect? I wouldn't call them a disgrace either, that title is reserved for things like Megaman X7. And one good thing that came from them was that they gave us official names for many previously unnamed enemies. * Darius article should also cover Darius Burst Another Chronicle/Another Chronicle EX (EX adds in the Chronicle mode and EX mode) and the recent Darius Burst Chronicle Saviours.

I'm eagerly awaiting for this one.

* The Darkstalkers article could get a mention of Darkstalkers Resurrection and all the bullshit involving it. * The Donkey Kong Country article need to be updated with Tropical Freeze. * The Dragon Slayer article really needs to cover the missing entries, Lord Monarch and the earlier Legend of Heroes games (maybe LoH could get a separate article covering the Gagharv trilogy). * The Raiden article is missing Raiden IV: Overkill (and maybe get a mention of the upcoming Raiden V). * The Shin Megami Tensei goes without mention.

The Dragon Slayer subseries are all technically separate pieces, but I'm putting them on the list for completion's sake.

What about articles with incorrect information? Seconded. The Fighters Destiny article is serious need of refurbishment. There also happens to be a spiritual sequel called Toy Fighter that could use a mention.

In that case, go here: hg101.proboards.com/thread/8148/fighters-destinyWe can update articles, but please keep in mind (especially for articles that are several years old) that (A) there's a good chance the original author is no longer writing for the site and cannot update it, and (B) there's an equally good chance the person actually updating the article (i.e. me) isn't familiar with the game in question either. So you really need to be specific about what the issues are with them.

a big one not mentioned in the OP would be Chrono Trigger sequels: Radical Dreamers and Chrono Cross. not sure 'outdated' would be a good term here as those were out when the article was published.

The difficult part of that is that the Chrono Trigger article is almost more of a concept piece than a traditional HG101 profile, in a similar vein to the Final Fantasy articles that were crossposted from SocksMakePeopleSexy. For it to be a proper series profile, it'd probably have to get written from scratch.

Speaking of Final Fantasy, I see the article is not one the list of articles anymore. Was it deleted or something?
