Comments

• There seems to be a lot of Facebook refs...--Dom497 (talk) 01:39, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

All of these are from the park themselves. It's not like I am referencing John Smith who posted something. Themeparkgc  Talk  08:06, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

I guess.--Dom497 (talk) 00:10, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

• "The coaster's seven trains double the capacity of the traditional El Loco ride from 4 seats per train to 8 seats per train." - Needs ref showing that the other models had 4 seats per train. Also, I don't think concept art is the best to go by.--Dom497 (talk) 01:39, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Concept art was really a remnant of the article at an earlier time. Fixed the ref. Themeparkgc  Talk  08:06, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

• "Riders are harnessed to the ride through the use of lap bars and seat belts" - How does this show a seatbelt? And again, is there a better ref somewhere on the internet other than concept art .--Dom497 (talk) 01:39, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Removed the bit about seat belts and added a new citation for the lap bars. Themeparkgc  Talk  08:06, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

• "The queue begins adjacent to the DC Store, opposite Batwing Spaceshot." - Ref?--Dom497 (talk) 01:46, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Added the park map ref. Also, the park map ref relates to the actual park map from inside the park as the one online isn't as detailed (and thus isn't linked). In reality though, per WP:CHALLENGE would anyone really challenge this information? Themeparkgc  Talk  08:00, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

I believe you that that the physical map is more detailed so now I wouldn't challenge that.--Dom497 (talk) 12:56, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

• "Upon the completion of the ride, guests exit via a path that runs under the lift hill and alongside the park's boundary before returning to the DC Store." - The park map nor the other ref really show/explain this.--Dom497 (talk) 01:46, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

I've added another source that supports part of the exit pathway. See above regarding the park map. I feel WP:CHALLENGE would also apply here. Themeparkgc  Talk  08:00, 20 June 2013 (UTC)

• Any reception from enthusiasts, riders, etc?--Dom497 (talk) 01:46, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Only the typical forum reviews which of course can't be included in a GA. Themeparkgc  Talk  08:06, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

• No GTA?--Dom497 (talk) 01:49, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

Nope. GTAs typically go to American rides with the occassional international ride thrown in. Themeparkgc  Talk  08:06, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

• The lead seems just a little bit short. Maybe expand it a bit?--Dom497 (talk) 01:50, 15 June 2013 (UTC)

I've expanded it a bit. Is this sufficient? Themeparkgc  Talk  08:06, 18 June 2013 (UTC)

Yup!--Dom497 (talk) 00:10, 19 June 2013 (UTC)

Good work; all comments addressed!--Dom497 (talk) 12:56, 20 June 2013 (UTC)
