You could use spoiler/hidden tags between the credits list not to have it shown like that and have it compressed.

The "melee" tag should be reserved for unaltered standard wc3 gameplay, i.e. "melee" and "altered melee" are usually mutually exclusive. Please remove the "Melee" tag.

mafe is right, this is an altered melee map.

1. The description doesn't say much of anything about the gameplay and factions.
2. Seems like only one type of creeps/neutral troops->trolls.
3. If you play the map with less than the max number of players, the absent player mines have no guards.
4. The Dwarven Rider doesn't have a DISBTN. The icon looks green when disabled. Learn about icons and how to make/add a DISBTN version:
   Button Manager v1.8.2
   BLP Lab v0.5.0

   How to Make an Icon
5. The dwarf faction is basically the human one. Nothing really that different.
6. Heroes are just simple ones using Warcraft III abilities and other names, icons and models. Nothing actually custom about them.
7. Many of the orc buildings don't have DISBTN icons. Same: Headhunter.
8. The Fel Headhunters are just renamed and use other aesthetics. They're the same unit though.

Nothing but ultrameager changes, mostly visually.

Substandard.

ADDITIONAL NECESSARY INFORMATION

• A credits list in the map thread description is required where the names of the resource (models, skins, icons, spells, sound etc.) authors are mentioned along with the specific resource. It would be a luxury to have links leading to the used resources. Credits in the Quest Log would be appreciated too.
  
• A detailed changelog in the first post would be helpful to reviewers and notify fans about the newest implementations to your map.
  
• Map thread tags are important. Please use those that fit and not more or none.
