GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose is "clear and concise", without copyvios, or spelling and grammar errors:  
    Grammar needs a bit of work. "with <noun> <verbing>", for example, is not grammatically correct.
    B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:  
    "Acclaimed" and other peacock terms should be replaced with more descriptive and informative text.
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. Has an appropriate reference section:  
    B. Citation to reliable sources where necessary:  
    References to the IMDb, which is not a reliable source. Needs more citations to verify awards and critical reception when it is merely asserted without a citation, such the part about A River Runs Through It.
    C. No original research:  
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:  
    B. Focused:  
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:  
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:  
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:  
    B. Images are provided if possible and are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:  
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:  
    Currently needs more work. Copy editing will solve most but not all of these problems. In particular, the referencing for awards and reception needs to be improved.

I left this open for a while, as I thought that I would perhaps get around to fixing it myself. However, after over a week, it seems as though this is not going to happen. I finally cleaned up the grammar a bit and replaced an unreliable source, but there's too much work to be done for me to keep this open indefinitely in the hopes that I or someone else will eventually clean it up. In particular, the sourcing needs to be improved dramatically. NinjaRobotPirate (talk) 02:17, 15 September 2014 (UTC)Reply
