As part of Wikipedia:WikiProject Good articles' Project quality task force, I am re-reviewing this article to ensure compliance with current good article criteria. I have determined that it doesn't meet criteria for the reasons outlined below and needs a bit of work if it is to retain its status.
- The lead needs to address things like development and reception
- The plot has a cleanup tag, and for good reason; it's excessively detailed to the point that it hampers understanding for those who haven't seen the film. Cut out the tangental character mentions and asides, and summarize more rather than a blow-by-blow account.
- There appear to be excessive use of non-free images in violation of WP:NFCC. In particular File:Dvd SH Revenge.jpg and File:Cybil-Movie.png don't add much and should be removed. File:Dvd SH SilentHill.jpg might be able to fly given the critical reception, but it needs a stronger fair use rationale and should be made lower resolution.
- The "release" and "music" sections need sources, and the music section needs to be fleshed out into at least a single paragraph.
- "#The 'real' Silent Hill" should just be cut; the parallel is made clear in development, but it's really just trivia.
- The "#Sequel" section needs to be wikified; one-sentence lines by their lonesome should be expanded, cut or merged into full paragraphs.
I am putting the article on hold for seven days pending improvements (longer, if significant progress is being made). Please appraise me of progress here or on my talk page. Thanks, Der Wohltemperierte Fuchs (talk) 19:44, 5 October 2009 (UTC)
- As there has been no stated improvements or steps towards addressing the above issues, I am delisting. Remember you can renominate at WP:GAN any time you feel it meets criteria, but I recommend taking a stab at the above issues first. Leave any questions or comments on my talk page, please—I don't watchlist old reviews and won't see any further changes to this archive.
