Discussion

[edit]
Lead
  • As this is a character, change "that appears" to "who appears". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • Specify that this is "Walt Disney Animation Studios' 60th animated feature film". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Partly done: The studio is an animation studio (as specified in its name) and therefore only produces animation, so "animated" would be redundant and repetitive.
      • Ah yes, that's correct. Optionally, if you're like me and like when multiple articles are consistent, you can remove the "Animated" in "Animated Pictures" and add "animated" back into "feature film". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 00:25, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The comma before Encanto is not strictly necessary grammatically, though not wrong either. Removing it would bring the article in line with similar articles, such as Mulan or Aurora, Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Prose throughout the article seems to apply the Oxford comma. As such, it should be added after "emotional" in "imperfect, quirky, emotional and empathetic". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • Add a comma after "gift" in "desperately searching for a gift but the character's motivation". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • Stephanie Beatriz should be noted as the voice actress earlier in the lead. Perhaps as: "Voiced by American actress and singer Stephanie Beatriz, Mirabel is depicted ...". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Forgive me for asking, but why? I do not think the fact that Beatriz voices her had that much effect on her depiction...
      • Per Wikipedia:WAF, articles like these should keep their focus on a real world perspective. As such, I believe Beatriz's voice probably has the largest effect—aside from the animation itself—on her in-film depiction. In fact, now that I think about it, the second paragraph of the "critical response" section could be expanded to be slightly longer. At the moment, it's mostly just a list of terms describing the performance. Maybe consider expanding it to be about as long or slightly shorter than the first paragraph by making it less list-style. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 00:25, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Critics praised the character and Beatriz's performance". Expand on what aspects they praised. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Mirabel has also been discussed among therapists". What did they discuss? Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Attempted to expand
      • As this is the lead, no citation is needed so long as its referenced in the text itself. With that said, can you tell me where in the text the "unite her family" part appears? The note about awards should also be made into its own sentence, maybe with a mention of who was awarded—actress, animators, etc—without naming the awards themselves. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 00:25, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
Development
  • The first sentence sounds wonky and could perhaps be split into two. Maybe start with "During the production of Zootopia (2016) ..." or something to that extend. Miranda's involvement would do well to be made into its own sentence. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • I've tried splitting the sentence, but it just kinda feels off to me... so I kept it whole...
  • The comma after "families" in "large extended families" is unnecessary here. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • Remove the Encanto wikilink from "her family" and add it to the beginning of the sentence where the film is directly named. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • Per MOS:LINK, Colombia probably shouldn't be wikilinked. However, it may be important enought here to warrant an exception. I'll leave that up to your discretion. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • I don't think MOS:LINK is part of the GA criteria anyways, so I'll leave it as it is
  • It is unclear what "position" means in "the vulnerability of Mirabel's position". Perhaps there is a better word or framing that could be used here. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The quote by Charise Castro Smith is difficult to understand. I better formatted it for you: Mirabel's position is "complicated and awkward and just utterly human and relatable [in] that [she] feel[s] like ... the unspecial one amongst everyone else who’s special and perfect and has it all figured out." Furthermore, the quote should be cited in the adjacent reference using the "quote" parameter. As citation six is used two other times in the article, it's fine to create a new identical citation that also includes the quote. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    • Is there a guideline/policy that specifically mentions this? The closest I can find is WP:FQ...
      • You're correct, my mistake. I usually work on articles with Spanish sources, meaning that any time a quote is translated to English, the original Spanish quote needs to be placed in the citation. As all quotes here are in English, they don't need to be added to the citation. Castro Smith's quote is still difficult to understand though, and needs to be changed for clarity. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 00:25, 6 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Add "that" after "said" for "said that as a magical realism film". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • As a Spanish word, "Mira" should be italicized. Also, quick note as a Spanish speaker: "Mirar" means "to look". "Mira" only means "look". This is noted in citation ten. Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • As mentioned with an identical sentence earlier, there should be a comma after "gift" in "searching for a gift". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • While "her motivation to be noticed" works, I personally found it a bit hard to understand. Perhaps replace "motivation" for "wish" or something to that extend. Also, add "that" to "stated" for "stated that her". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • Add "of the film" to "one version". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done
  • Add "the" before "third act" for "start of the third act". Krisgabwoosh (talk) 04:16, 5 June 2022 (UTC)[reply]

  1. ^ Compliance with other aspects of the Manual of Style, or the Manual of Style mainpage or subpages of the guides listed, is not required for good articles.
  2. ^ Either parenthetical references or footnotes can be used for in-line citations, but not both in the same article.
  3. ^ This requirement is significantly weaker than the "comprehensiveness" required of featured articles; it allows shorter articles, articles that do not cover every major fact or detail, and overviews of large topics.
  4. ^ Vandalism reversions, proposals to split or merge content, good faith improvements to the page (such as copy editing), and changes based on reviewers' suggestions do not apply. Nominations for articles that are unstable because of unconstructive editing should be placed on hold.
  5. ^ Other media, such as video and sound clips, are also covered by this criterion.
  6. ^ The presence of images is not, in itself, a requirement. However, if images (or other media) with acceptable copyright status are appropriate and readily available, then some such images should be provided.
