Length

The length of this article is roughly 145 words, which is shorter than the 3000-word count but it means you have a lot more in the future to write which I look forward to. Your headings give a lot of opportunity for a lot more words and works because of how detailed the subject matter is and how many sources there are for something like this, so you shouldn't worry.

Structure

The three major components of a Wikipedia article are; an introductory paragraph that summarizes the subject matter, the body of the article and all of its respective sections, and statements that are backed up by references to reliable sources. So far as the article goes, we only have the introductory paragraph that is summarizing the subject and there are a handful of references but not yet a body but there is a nice framework for one. In my opinion, the introductory paragraph could be expanded on more to maybe make a couple of paragraphs to compromise the overall summary since the body has the potential to be huge.

Clarity

So far as I've read fo the introductory paragraph, this is very clear in defining the subject manner by going over a bit of what it is and the difficulties associated with how there are many rating systems around the world and the lack of standardization with people recognizing the actual legitimacy of such systems. It's something I've never personally thought about and it was explained very clearly.

Objective Reporting

The reporting feels extremely objective and it's complete with many good sources. Overall, this MediaWiki article has objectively reported the main issues faced with video game content rating systems. I do think that a lot more could be added regarding their history, why they exist, why there are so many conflicting opinions and standards since they're so many and how a single standardization is possible given the fast amount of cultures that exist that play video games. Overall, good start so far, and I'm sure there's a lot more to go.
