Reviewer: Annalise (talk) 16:08, 27 March 2010 (UTC) Hi, I'll be reviewing this over the next few days. I haven't looked over the article in detail yet, but so far it seems pretty good.

GA review (see here for criteria)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose): b (MoS):

   I'm going to go over this now and make sure everything's completely in order; if it's not, I'll most likely fix it myself.

   Generally, this is pretty good. In a lot of the quotations, though, the article has double quotes (") within double quotes. All of the quotes inside of quotations should be changed to single quotes ('). As well, the external link in the "deleted scenes" section should be removed or at least moved to the external links section.

2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):

   Make sure that all of the direct quotations are cited directly. Right now, there are a few where the citation is at the end of the paragraph/sentence or absent altogether. They all need to be cited immediately after the quote.

   It looks like this was mostly fixed, but the quote in the lead also needs to be cited directly. Never mind, going through there are still a lot of uncited quotes.

3. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

5. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

   Some of the captions ended with a full stop even though they weren't complete sentences, but I fixed that as I went through. Other than that, the images all look great.

7. Overall:

   Pass/Fail:

   All of the concerns I had have been cleared up. It looks like this pretty obviously qualifies for GA, congratulations! Annalise (talk) 21:55, 2 April 2010 (UTC)
