Will review. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 06:21, 24 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]

General
  • A few dead links [1]
  • No dablinks or copyvio issues
  • Fairly well-written article. Good job!
  • Can you add a few more images, not necessarily Olyphant's.
  • A few instances of overciting at some places. If you want to cite sources as examples, say here ...has participated in many pro-celebrity tournaments or he and the show were often perceived to have been "snubbed" by Emmy voters, I have no issues with that, but to support a single fact like but has said he does not consider him a "good guy" you can do with three refs.
Lead
  • For an article of this length the lead should be at least 3 paras long
Early life
  • I think articles (after lead) typically begin with the person's full name
  • I see some overciting at the end of the part and Katherine (née Gideon) Three refs should suffice. Also after the first quotation in the last para
  • both remarried May look a bit too sudden after the mention of their divorce, when exactly did they reunite?
  • The second para seems part of personal life, not early life.
  • but was told By whom?
1995–2003
  • Sure Olyphant didn't receive negative reviews on his debut?
  • but he did not have an opportunity to meet the show's producer, Clint Eastwood, who quit days before filming began Not sure if this is relevant here
2004–2009
  • Good, but look at "general" comments
2010–2015
  • There, he encounters many outlaw figures from his childhood, including his father and Boyd Crowder, with whom he dug coal as a teenager Maybe we are getting too much into the character? I would say a line merely introducing the character should suffice.
  • Raylan Givens has been described by many television critics You can simply call him "Givens" once you have introduced him. Please check for other instances I may have missed.
  • Justified was awarded a Peabody Award in 2011 Italics for "Justified"
2015–present
  • Good, but look at "general" comments
Personal life
  • delivering his reports in an unconventional style What exactly was this style?
  • Olyphant is a keen tennis player Sure the wording "keen" comes from the sources 242 and 243 (the sources immediately after the part)? I am unable to access the websites but I need to be sure.
Filmography
  • Is each entry in the tables sourced? (also in Awards and nominations)
