GA Reassessment

As part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles' Project quality task force, I am re-reviewing this article to ensure compliance with current good article criteria. I have determined that it doesn't meet criteria for the reasons outlined below and needs a bit of work if it is to retain its status:

• The lead section does not adequately summarize the entire article. There's next to nothing about production or much on summary of critical reaction, or even plot.

  The lead has been expanded to touch on the various topics within the article. I removed some of the unrelated statements in the lead and moved them to within the article. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 04:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

• The plot is too long; it should be cut down to a more succinct and readable length.

  Trimmed, let me know if you see any issues. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 04:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

• There are a lot of one or two-line paragraphs, which aren't really paragraphs (examples: second paragraph of "script and locations", first paragraph of "homage", last paragraph of "filming". These either need to be cut, expanded, or merged if applicable.

  Merged, expanded, or rearranged assorted brief paragraphs. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 04:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

  • While I'm on the subject, the formatting of the production section makes no logical sense, with postproduction coming before discussions about filming.

    The layout has been changed, let me know if it needs further rotations. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 04:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

• Unsourced statements throughout, particularly home video and the end of the cast section. All these need reliable citations.

  I removed many unsourced statements and added citations for others. A lot of information has snuck in here that I haven't paid attention to very closely in my watchlist. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 04:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

I am placing the article on hold for seven days, longer if good efforts are made to addressing the above. Thanks, --Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ^(talk) 02:41, 4 September 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for reviewing the article. I'm always glad to see one of my GAs swept from the list, and I still got a few left for reviewers to look at. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 04:31, 7 September 2009 (UTC)

Okay, much better, thanks for the quick response. --Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs ^(talk) 14:42, 7 September 2009 (UTC)
