Notable aliases

Why is only "Red Hood" listed? Is this alias more notable than the Martha Wayne one for some reasons? Redjedi23 (talk) 16:45, 23 February 2024 (UTC)Reply

GA concerns

edit

I am concerned that this article no longer meets the good article criteria. Some of my concerns are listed below:

  • There is a lot of uncited text throughout the article
  • At over 12,000 words, WP:TOOBIG says that it could possibly be trimmed. I think some information can be moved to other articles, and the information summarised here.
  • There are several unreliable sources used as inline citations, such as WP:WHATCULTURE and cracked.com

Is anyone willing to address these concerns, or should this go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 21:19, 14 September 2024 (UTC)Reply

The first two points are entirely because of the forced integration of the Alternative versions of the Joker article, which is also entirely unsourced. Remove that section and there's no problem. The other references were perfectly fine when it went through GA and are hardly a reason to take it to GAR. Darkwarriorblake (talk) 21:43, 14 September 2024 (UTC)Reply
@Darkwarriorblake: Thanks for removing a lot of the uncited statements. For the two references cited above, is someone able to replace them with better, reliable sources? Z1720 (talk) 23:18, 9 October 2024 (UTC)Reply
