Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 14:41, 17 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

[edit]
  • Add a year date after Deep Azure.
  • Infobox and lead prose looks good.

Early life and education

[edit]
  • Remove the comma after "textile factory".
  • Add a comma after "Limba people from Sierra Leone".
  • Several of his plays need year dates.
  • Remove the comma after "write and direct".

Career

[edit]
  • Add a comma after "Company of New York".
  • Year dates.
  • Remove the comma after "Company in Chicago".
  • "or impression" → "nor impression"
  • "highest grossing" → "highest-grossing"
  • In Both films were the highest grossing of the year they were released, with Endgame going on to become the highest-grossing film of all time. -? If so, no: "highest-grossing" is the adjective, which isn't what "highest grossing" in the first clause is being used for. Kingsif (talk) 21:58, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "of their" → "about their"
  • Remove the comma after "before taking the role".
  • Remove the comma after "opening lines".
  • No to these, too. In the first instance it is introducing another primary clause (there's much more information after the "but"), in the second it is used to indicate the next clause applies to the subject of the previous clause ("given a nod") rather than simply continuing to describe the "opening lines". Grammar is an art. Kingsif (talk) 21:58, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Appraisal and legacy

[edit]
  • "embodying character" should be plural.
  • No it shouldn't. Regardless of how many characters he played, that is a singular skill. Each character has character, and being able to embody that concept is the skill. "Embodying characters" is just "acting". Kingsif (talk) 22:00, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Personal life

[edit]
  • This section looks good.

Illness and death

[edit]
  • "for creation" → "for the creation"

Filmography

[edit]
  • For The Glades, does Facebook need to be cited?
Can a more reliable (secondary) source such as this be used instead? Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 22:15, 24 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Playwright

[edit]
  • Table looks good.

Awards and honors

[edit]
  • This section also looks good.

References

[edit]
  • Archive all archivable sources (either manually with the help of this and this, or with this tool).
  • Add a correct title, author, and overall parameters to the reference in the infobox.
  • There is a copy of the reference titled "The 'Black Panther' Revolution" (recite instead).
  • Mark references from Forbes with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from Los Angeles Times with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from The New Republic with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from The New York Time with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from The New Yorker with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from Rolling Stone with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from Times with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from Vanity Fair with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from Vulture with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from The Washington Post with "|url-access=limited".
  • Mark references from Wall Street Journal or The Wall Street Journal with "|url-access=subscription".
  • The second reference after "Carolyn (Mattress)" needs to be properly cited.
  • Fix the four references titled "Archived copy".
  • NPR.orgNPR
  • The second reference after "had attended" is missing a website.
  • The reference after "too many saints" is missing a website.
  • Republic World is not a reliable source.
  • The reference after "the same day" is missing a website.
  • The text "Nikkolas Smith verified Instagram account" is not necessary.
  • NME | Music, Film, TV, Gaming & Pop Culture NewsNME
  • The reference for Rhyme Deferred in #Playwright needs to be properly cited.
  • The reference for Hieroglyphic Graffiti in #Playwright is missing a website.
  • Optional, but linking websites would be helpful to future readers.
