Initial comments will be posted soon. --1ST7 (talk) 20:11, 1 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I did some copyediting; I hope you don't mind. Here's the review:

  1. Well-written
    • This is a bit of a run-on sentence: "The family enters a magical world and her father insists on exploring and they cross a dry riverbed."
    • This is too: "After Chihiro saves No-Face with the emetic dumpling, he becomes timid once more, Zeniba takes care of No-Face so he can develop without the negative influence of the bath house."
  2. Verifiable with no original research:
    • The "Music" section needs sources.
    • "The bonus features include Japanese trailers, a making-of documentary which originally aired on Nippon Television, interviews with the North American voice actors, a select storyboard-to-scene comparison and The Art of Spirited Away, a documentary narrated by actor Jason Marsden." Can you add a citation for this?
  3. Broad in its coverage:
    • Article is focused and appears to cover all of the main aspects of the topic.
  4. Neutral:
  5. Stable:
    • No edit wars, etc.
  6. Illustrated, if possible, by images:
    • All images look good.

Aside from these issues, the article looks ready for promotion. I don't think it's necessary to place this on hold as the issues can be addressed pretty quickly. Thanks for your work! --1ST7 (talk) 00:01, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Should be all set now, I kinda source bombed a few things with the Japanese originals where possible, but I had to fall back on Anime Nation for the Tokyo International Anime Fair. For some reason, the 17th Japan Gold Disc Award was listed as the 16th... assuming someone's good faith error, but its verifiable and in English for easy access. I had difficulty in citing the awards before nominating, but the information was accurate and just took some extreme searching to get. I cited the Disney Press release for the special features, it doesn't list Marsden as narrator for the The Art of Spirited Away special feature, but it lists the feature. Assuming that is perfectly fine as the disc itself would be needed otherwise. As for the Nippon Television special it is not listed on the press release, but if you possess a copy you will see it for yourself. Secondly, you could check your local library which will list it in the DVD contents list. Sorry... but there was no other way to cite it without making it a primary. Any other concerns?

Everything looks good now, so I'm passing the article. Congratulations, and thanks again for your work on it. --1ST7 (talk) 04:44, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you, but a lot of the credit goes to Sjones, I merely decided to push it forward. Most of my work was the themes, and sourcing the unsourced information. ChrisGualtieri (talk) 05:09, 2 September 2013 (UTC)[reply]
