Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 16:45, 6 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

[edit]
With this template you added, try to be consistent with it in #Mystery_Science_Theater_3000.
Done. GamerPro64 02:47, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Non-free use rationale for the poster looks good.
  • Couldn't find any current issues with the infobox.
  • However, the runtime does need a source.
Most good articles have sources for the runtime for verifcation.
There are some Featured articles that don't have a sourced runtime. Some of mine don't either. GamerPro64 02:16, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Most featured articles listed have a source for the runtime while the ones that don't, such as this and this, were promoted decades ago and might not be up to today's standards (some have very short leads, so they might have to reassessed). Is there a reason a source can't be added?
Because its not a requirement for Good Articles. You yourself have a film nominated with no sourced run time with Jojo Rabbit. GamerPro64 03:05, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Could that be because it's sourced in the body of the article? Nothing for this review is a "requirement" for the GA process and I don't get why there's such a big fuss about verifying your statement. The second criteria for GA-articles is literally that all content should be "Verifiable with no original research", so I'm not sure how you're other articles have passed without that verification. As the runtime isn't sourced, it's original research.

I brought this up at the Film WikiProject. GamerPro64 15:44, 9 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]

There seems to be a mixed consensus in the discussion so far but I added a source in anyway. GamerPro64 00:51, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@GamerPro64: There's only one unaddressed comment above. After that, I'll recheck the article. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 01:32, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@GamerPro64: Actually, there are now two comments, one in this section below and one in #Release. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 12:15, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
@GamerPro64: With the help of Chompy Ace, all that's left is to archive sources for future reference. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 01:12, 13 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Change it to "Promotional release poster" for consistency with other articles.

Release and legacy

  • Remove the dependence on quotes with the help of WP:RECEPTION.
  • "Reception to Zombie Nightmare were generally negative." → "Reception to Zombie Nightmare was generally negative." or "Reviews to Zombie Nightmare were generally negative."
  • "of which" → "which"
    • Done.
  • "Worldwide, The film" → "Worldwide, the film"

References

[edit]
Live-In uses the template by removing "|via=" and adding the template (with a space) after all the "cite web" parameters: <ref>{{cite web|...}} {{ProQuest|...}}</ref>
I added them in. GamerPro64 00:51, 12 April 2021 (UTC)[reply]
