I will start my review by the weekend.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 21:29, 29 June 2011 (UTC)

• I am quite pleased with the WP:LEAD right now. Once I read the article, I will reconsider whether it adequately summarized the content.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:19, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
• I am also pleased with the Plot.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:19, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Cast

• Why do a small minority of cast members remain without citation?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:19, 1 July 2011 (UTC)

Origins

• Even though it is a quote, "exploring the idea of people sharing a dream space — entering a dream space and sharing a dream." seems redundant. Can anything be done?--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:19, 1 July 2011 (UTC)
  • I am not confused by the remaining quotation. There must be some ellipses missing given what your removed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:25, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Filming

• By Downtown Los Angeles, do you literally mean Downtown Los Angeles.
• I am an overlinker, but I would link chairlift, depth perception, occlusion--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:24, 2 July 2011 (UTC).

Ending

• I would link Closing credits.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:38, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Music

• Although Inception: Music from the Motion Picture is linked via the {{mainarticle}} credits, it should be linked in the text of the article, IMO.
• When you use the term soundtrack in this section do you mean for it to be distinct from the term score or a synonym.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:38, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Marketing

• You mention many aspects of viral marketing and I am not sure if the term is used as I understand it. Do you have any sort of pageview statistics that can confirm the viral nature of the marketing.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:46, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
  • You added a paragraph of good content, but you did not clarify the viral issue.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:37, 5 July 2011 (UTC)
    • "Viral marketing refers to marketing techniques that use pre-existing social networks to produce increases in brand awareness. (...) Viral marketing may take the form of video clips, interactive Flash games, advergames, ebooks, brandable software, images, or text messages." It fits this description (specially as I expanded to give more on what Warner did), but you still think it's unclear?
      • I think it is O.K. However, "After the reveal of the first teaser trailer," is ungrammatical. Maybe change reveal to revelation.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 21:38, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Box-office performance

• You use past tense in this paragraph except for "Its five highest-grossing markets after the U.S.A. and Canada are".--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:46, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Critical response

• What is meant by the phrase "first positive notice"
• Maybe link surrealists
• It is odd that you use the phrase "David Edelstein was reported to". Either he said it and you have an WP:RS to back it up or you can not find an RS to WP:ATT the quote to and it should be removed. reported to should not be used.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:59, 2 July 2011 (UTC)
  • It remains ungrammatical although no longer misleading. I would change "described in his review" to claimed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:50, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

Home media

• Put this section in chronological order
• move the links around accordingly.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 17:59, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

Accolades

• I think the general term stagecraft should be used in the article as a collective for the types of awards won. The WP:LEAD could Say something like "The film received eight Academy Award nominations and nine British Academy Film Award nominations, won no artistic categories, while winning most of the stagecraft awards for which it was nominated. At awards ceremonies focussing on artistic categories such as Golden Globes, the film met with little success."
• I am flexible on the above point.
• I also think Social Network should be noted as the film that won most of the artistic categories in which Inception competed.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 18:12, 2 July 2011 (UTC)

GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

   The licensing of File:Emma Thomas & Christopher Nolan at WonderCon 2010 3.JPG is a bit curious. We will need an image review. {{Personality rights}} may be relevant to it. The same tag is definitely relevant to File:InceptionCastPremiereJuly10.jpg and the latter needs a WP:CAPTION correction because phrases that are not complete sentences should not end with a period.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:36, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

   The former already has said rights template, and I added it to the latter. igordebraga ≠ 20:32, 5 July 2011 (UTC)

   Unless you are in a hurry, we can wait for an image review of the peculiar copyright claim on that image. If you don't want to wait, you can remove it and I will pass the article since that is the only remaining issue. I would expect an image review to happen by the weekend, but can't promise.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 03:24, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

   So, it was removed then. igordebraga ≠ 04:11, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   I am putting this on hold to await responses to the issues noted above.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:36, 3 July 2011 (UTC)

Anything else? igordebraga ≠ 01:47, 6 July 2011 (UTC)

All concerns addressed. I am now Passing this article.--TonyTheTiger (T/C/BIO/WP:CHICAGO/WP:FOUR) 05:20, 6 July 2011 (UTC)
