Borderlands: The Pre-Sequel

[edit]

Created by ViperSnake151 (talk). Self nominated at 03:03, 11 April 2014 (UTC).

  • New (9th), long enough, "within policy", no copyvio found via spotcheck (no tool), QPQ done. There is a bit of excessive quoting here—stuff that is better off paraphrased (just a note since it's outside the scope of my review). Also the end-paragraph multiple footnotes make it very hard to verify the content. That aside, the stuff in the hook needs to have immediate refs in article (see 3b). Please ping me if I don't respond. czar  18:07, 12 April 2014 (UTC)
  • The required fixes have been performed. Please review again. ViperSnake151  Talk  00:10, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
Verifying the hook, the source says Mad Max and not Mad Max 2, so not sure where that's from. Also the "predominantly" part needs a cite (unless you remove that one word). Rephrased ALT2 czar  00:32, 14 April 2014 (UTC)
  • Czar, it looks like some edits were done about an hour after you posted the above, though not mentioned here as they should have been. Do they solve the issues with Max? Have any subsequent edits helped, or at least not hurt? Thanks for taking another look at this. BlueMoonset (talk) 04:41, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
Haven't reviewed all edits since, but my above points haven't been fixed. I personally get the difference between the original and the sequel, but the source doesn't say Mad Max 2 or imply it. The prose would have to reference the series as a whole (as the interview itself did). ViperSnake151? czar  04:47, 1 May 2014 (UTC)
Why not just go with the first one? ViperSnake151  Talk  16:37, 5 May 2014 (UTC)

() The source says Mad Max, not the sequel. It needs to be updated in the prose and the hook. czar  01:25, 6 May 2014 (UTC)

No I mean, the one that just says that Bruce Spence is in it? ViperSnake151  Talk  03:19, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
Right, so to approve that one, each of the hook's parts need to be sourced in the article with direct, inline refs. When I go to check that Mad Max 2 is in the referenced source, the source mentions only Mad Max (not 2), so the article and hook need to be updated accordingly czar  03:22, 6 May 2014 (UTC)
