Will be taking this one; I enjoyed this movie. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 08:17, 12 May 2022 (UTC)Reply


Hi, I have begun reviewing the article and just finished with the entire Production. Though I'm happy to announce that this section mostly pass the GA criteria, I feel like the following texts fail criterion 2b for being either unsourced or failing verification against source provided:

*In 2020, the COVID-19 pandemic in Los Angeles affected Bay's career and canceled his plans to shoot his next film, Black Five. He recalled telling his agent "Goddamnit, I just want to get out and shoot something fast. I'm tired of being locked up at home".

  • The production also hired real trauma surgeons, firefighters, SWAT teams, snipers, and 52 LAPD officers for the shoot.

Will continue with the rest later. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 06:50, 13 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

Okay, back to reviewing.

Sections from Release down to Reception pass criterion 2a. However, the following texts, while not necessarily unreferenced, need inline citations to maintain text-source integrity:

  • The first trailer was shown at CinemaCon on August 25, 2021
  • It was projected to gross $8–14 million from 3,412 theaters in its opening weekend
  • The film made $3.2 million on its first day, including $700,000 from Thursday night previews
Prose review
  • Ambulance received mixed reviews from critics who saw it as a return to form for Bay, though the story drew occasional criticism. -> please copyedit for this to be "well written". This needs citation, too
  • Ambulance has grossed $21.8 million -> fix double spacing in 21.8 million
  • and the Winter Olympics as well as re-runs of The Big Bang Theory. -> place a comma before as well as
  • Cam tries to convince Will to stop Danny to no avail -> comma before to no avail
  • Wikilink B movie
  • I believe there's one instance of "multiples [sic] sources" inline that needs fixing

Would be happy to give this article a pass once these issues are resolved. Nineteen Ninety-Four guy (talk) 06:57, 14 May 2022 (UTC)Reply

    • Thank you. I'm happy with the changes overall, though I had to do some minor ones here in there. I'm therefore pleased to announce that this article has passed the Good Article criteria. It's well-written and sourced, broad, neutral, stable, and supported with licensed images. You may be interested in nominating the article for WP:DYK, as it's a newly-promoted GA.
