I am reviewing this article for GA Sweeps.
  • It seems that there are sufficient free use photos that File:Allen-Jackan-Johannson-Scoop.jpg can be removed from this article where it violates WP:NFCC.   Done
  • This article has several one line paragraphs that need to be expanded or merged.  Done
Expanded last of 2008 and beyond. I tried finding more content about the ONE Campaign activities, and simply couldn't find anything more than the one liner in the article cited which gave no other details, so I've removed it. Wildhartlivie (talk) 05:17, 9 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
The fact that it was a one-line sentence does not make it less encyclopedic. I think removing it was a bad choice. I think you should have just merged it. I readded it and merged the content.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 06:16, 9 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
  • This article has several paragraphs that are void of citations. In order to keep up with the current standards at WP:WIAGA you will need in-line citations from reliable sources for important facts in these paragraphs so that they pass verifiability standards.  Done
  • Please see that WP:ALT text is added to all images.  Done

I will monitor this review for progress and may add further suggestions or concerns. After one week I will evaluate the article's quality rating.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 20:41, 18 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I'm going to start working on the rest of this. Just a note in passing about the time frame. Another editor who generally would jump right in and help me with fixing any issues has suddenly found himself tied up with a unfortunately timed FAR on an article upon which he is one of the main editors. If there is sufficient progress on fixing any issues on the page, is it possible for an extension past July 25? Thanks. Wildhartlivie (talk) 00:22, 23 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
I've been making progess on this. I've gone back through the existing references to update or replace them as needed and have copy edited lots of it. I still need to add alternate text to the images and better address the "Acting career" section. I plan to add content about critical commentary and reception, better fill out the awards content and any relevant box office content. We've had a family loss this week and that has taken time I wanted to spend here and will again the next two days, but I think it's improving. Hopefully, the review can be extended. Thanks.

I will keep monitoring the article and re-evaluate the article after a week from now. However, even that is not really a deadline as long as we are seeing progress. I am pleased with the progress and am sure Scarlett is too.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 22:46, 26 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
Thanks, Tony. I was so frustrated, I was working on expanding the career section last night and had actually completed it through the 2003 awards when my browser froze up. Usually with Firefox, you can work a little longer when it starts to slow down, but... I left it overnight since sometimes the browser recovers, but it didn't, so I had to close it and lost the content (argh!!!!). I'm a bit frustrated that other editors who worked on this at the time of the GA promotion haven't come in, but I will persevere! I want to continue filling out the career section and expand the lead, then I think I'll be satisfied. I, too, hope Scarlett looks in sometime. :) Wildhartlivie (talk) 19:48, 29 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
Don't worry about any sort of deadline. Good work is more important than good time.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 01:15, 30 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

Also, make sure you cite those chart positions and sales figures for her albums. You might want to poke around WikiProject:Discographies for help with that. WesleyDodds (talk) 11:02, 30 July 2009 (UTC)Reply

I've actually removed that table. She's only had two albums and they are covered fairly well in the music career section. The first album hasn't been released yet and there's no indication the first one sold much. Hopefully, this is okay. Wildhartlivie (talk) 22:02, 30 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
I don't have any strong feelings about its removal.--TonyTheTiger (t/c/bio/WP:CHICAGO/WP:LOTM) 22:48, 30 July 2009 (UTC)Reply
At minimum you should include the chart placing for her album in the prose. You can cite this via Billboard.com or Allmusic.com. WesleyDodds (talk) 06:48, 31 July 2009 (UTC)   DoneReply

(outdent) I'll put the album chart placing in the prose. I've expanded the acting career sections quite a lot and am thinking I should be finished in the next 2-3 days. I need to expand the last 2 years of films and the lead and that should be it. Wildhartlivie (talk) 03:52, 3 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

I believe I've updated the article quite a bit and think it meets all the GA standards and more importantly, addressed the concerns brought up while expanding the content to comprehensively cover her career. It should be ready for any comments and criticisms. Thanks for all your patience! Wildhartlivie (talk) 03:06, 9 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
