• Infobox title of the attraction is not in italics, unlike the rest of the mentions.

WikiProject Amusement Parks had a discussion a while back and we agreed that italics shouldn't be used for the ride that the article is about so I removed the italics.--Dom497 (talk) 12:24, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Okay, now I'm confused, the title of the article is still in italics, and is the only place italics is used... The Rambling Man (talk) 08:38, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

I can't figure out how to un-italicize the title.--Dom497 (talk) 18:23, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Well the film infobox was causing the italics in the title. I have restored the italics in this case because T2 3-D: Battle Across Time is the name of a film and I believe MOS:ITALIC would take precedence over the WikiProject. Themeparkgc  Talk  23:34, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

• If the lead is a summary, why the one odd reference [4]? This can be placed in the main article where you expand on the lead.

Done.--Dom497 (talk) 12:24, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

• "It was previously at Universal Studios Hollywood." the sentence before you said there were multiple attractions, are you saying that it was launched at Universal, then versions appeared elsewhere?

• "most expensive film per minute" did you mention in this section how long the film was?

Done.--Dom497 (talk) 12:24, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

• "to rave reviews" a bit POV, rave-> very positive.

Done.--Dom497 (talk) 12:24, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

• " actually Polarized 3D glasses" no need for "actually" or capital P.

Done.--Dom497 (talk) 12:24, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

• "Cyberdyne security - either being" en-dash required.

@The Rambling Man: I actually have no idea how to make an en-dash on a computer. Can you help please?--Dom497 (talk) 12:21, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

You can use the code –. Or the template {{ndash}}. The Rambling Man (talk) 17:29, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Done. Thanks!--Dom497 (talk) 20:34, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

• Where are the statistics on visitors?

Finding stats on visitors is very hard to come by. Almost all the amusement park/ride GA's don't have stats on visitors.--Dom497 (talk) 01:10, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Putting on hold for a week as there are a few issues. The Rambling Man (talk) 15:02, 2 March 2014 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man: I will help address the issues that you brought up as the nominator doesn't seem very active right now.--Dom497 (talk) 01:10, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Sounds good to me, let me know when you're ready for a re-review. The Rambling Man (talk) 07:14, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man: I have addressed all your comments.--Dom497 (talk) 12:26, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Will re-review as soon as I get the chance! Thanks for your attention. The Rambling Man (talk) 21:45, 6 March 2014 (UTC)

Further comments

• Ref 1 is missing a publisher.

Done.--Dom497 (talk) 18:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

• Ref 22 needs an en-dash in the title instead of that spaced hyphen.

Done.--Dom497 (talk) 18:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

• It has a 4D films template and a 4D category but no mention of 4D in the article.

"where live performers interact with a 3-D film" - Isn't it common sense that this statement = 4D? However, I'm not to certain if this ride is really 4D anyways. Please see my comment at the very bottom.--Dom497 (talk) 18:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

I have refocused that template because I'm skeptical that a couple of the other attractions should be considered 4D too. So now, we have 3D and 4D films at Universal Orlando

• Going back to "making it the most expensive film per minute", what is the context? Is it the most expensive film in the history of movies, for example?

Done.--Dom497 (talk) 18:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

• Just re-check the numerous red links, can any of them be turned blue by creating stubs? Can any of them be unlinked as they'd be unlikely to meet the notability requirements for Wikipedia in the short term?

Yes, some can have articles created but that's outside of the GA criteria.--Dom497 (talk) 18:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

• Image licences seem fine to me, although the image of the pre-show room is a little odd, not particularly enlightening and of low quality, is it really helpful?

How is it odd, it shows what the room looks like. Does it really matter that its a little blurry?--Dom497 (talk) 18:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

Otherwise a good piece of work. The Rambling Man (talk) 08:38, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

@The Rambling Man: I'm leaving to go on a vacation on Sunday so I not be able to address any more comments. I have emailed the nominator to see if he can come to finish addressing the issues and determine if this ride is 3D or 4D.--Dom497 (talk) 18:20, 7 March 2014 (UTC)

@Dom497: Firstly, thanks for picking up this review while I've been away. It's greatly appreciated. @The Rambling Man: I think I have addressed the two issues above that were outstanding. Please see my comments above. Themeparkgc  Talk  23:34, 7 March 2014 (UTC)
