Hello, I am planning on reviewing this article for GA Status, over the next couple of days. Thank you for nominating the article for GA status. I hope I will learn some new information, and that my feedback is helpful.

If nominators or editors could refrain from updating the particular section that I am updating until it is complete, I would appreciate it to remove a edit conflict. Please address concerns in the section that has been completed above (If I've raised concerns up to references, feel free to comment on things like the lede.)

I generally provide an overview of things I read through the article on a first glance. Then do a thorough sweep of the article after the feedback is addressed. After this, I will present the pass/failure. I may use strikethrough tags when concerns are met. Even if something is obvious why my concern is met, please leave a message as courtesy.

Best of luck! you can also use the {{done}} tag to state when something is addressed. Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)}

Please let me know after the review is done, if you were happy with the review! Obviously this is regarding the article's quality, however, I want to be happy and civil to all, so let me know if I have done a good job, regardless of the article's outcome.

Immediate Failures

• It is a long way from meeting any one of the six good article criteria -
• It contains copyright infringements -
• It has, or needs, cleanup banners that are unquestionably still valid. These include{{cleanup}}, {{POV}}, {{unreferenced}} or large numbers of {{citation needed}}, {{clarify}}, or similar tags. (See also {{QF-tags}}). -
• It is not stable due to edit warring on the page. -

Prose

Lede

• Add a WP:Short description. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:47, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• on the Gold Coast, Queensland, Australia - reword, it's either on the Gold Coast in Queensland, or its in Gold Coast, Queensland. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:47, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• ranked third in yearly attendance (behind Sea World and Dreamworld) for Australian theme parks. - is the third highest attended theme park in Australia, behind Sea World and Dreamworld. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:47, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• No link for Sea World? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:47, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• Dreamworld pipes to a redirect Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:47, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• The park contains movie-themed rides, attractions and shows. - isn't that already implied with the theme sentence above? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:47, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• Various costumed characters regularly patrol the park to interact and take photos with guests. Each afternoon, characters participate in a parade along the park's Main Street. The park hosts several seasonal events annually, such as the Halloween-themed Fright Nights and Christmas-themed White Christmas. DC Rivals HyperCoaster, opened in 2017, is the most recent among the park's six operating roller coasters. - this doesn't really say anything, perhaps say that there are six coasters (maybe list them and their opening dates)?

General

• Hollywood interest in Australian film and actors grew rapidly during the 1980s. - is this saying Australian film/actors became interested in Hollywood, or that Hollywood became interested in Australian film/actors? Also needs a citation Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• film producer Dino De Laurentiis - reword to avoid WP:SEAOFBLUE. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• science fiction action film Total Recall. - big SEAOFBLUE. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• left the tanking DEG - "tanking" is probably a bit much here. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• Just to say I won't bring up any more SEAOFBLUEs, but they'll all need fixing, there's quite a few. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• C.V. Wood ⋅- reword to fit title of page Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• lots of ", and..." - need to check and see if the comma is suitable. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• Queensland Premier - you'll need to explain what this is as well as the link. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• Batman Adventure – The Ride - pipes to "Batman Adventure – The Ride 2" which redirects to the first target? Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• Lethal Weapon – The Ride - is linked twice with different pipes. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• Far too many "see also". Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)
• A lot of duplicate links need tidying up. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 17:58, 6 October 2020 (UTC)

@Lee Vilenski: Thank you for taking the time to review this article. I have enacted on your suggestions except where outlined below:

• It is always "on the Gold Coast" not "in Gold Coast" (ie Ricki-Lee Coulter, Green Lantern Coaster). I can try on the Gold Coast in Queensland" if you prefer, although I think this reads a little awkward.
  • I do prefer "in Queensland", as it is how you read it. Not an expert. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:16, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
• I've tried to tweak the lead a little per your comments, although I'm unclear how it serves the reader to list all six roller coaster and their opening dates. It s commonplace in amusement park leads to mention the park's last major ride addition (in this case, 2017's DC Rivals).
  • Ok, that's fine Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:16, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
• The "Hollywood interest" is already covered by the citation to WP:RS (Local Hollywood book) in the next sentence and I'm wary of CITEKILL.
  • No problem. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:16, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
• I have tried to recast phrases/remove links per SEAOFBLUE but note that policy says to do this when possible (I'd prioritise succinct prose over fragmented sentences to avoid SEAOFBLUE).
  • Sure. I worry about easteregg links, where it might make it sound like we have an article for a series term, when its actually two links next to each other. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:16, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
• Replaced "tanking" with "failing"; an adjective is needed here for effect.
  • Fine. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:16, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
• I fixed "Queensland Premier" so this should be clearer, but I don't see any service to the reader to explain what it is when it is linked.
  • No worries. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:16, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
• Ran through and checked serial commas: note they are allowed to improve clarity and join two separate clauses. In Australian English we generally avoid them (checked MOS:ENGVAR)—as such, I removed several but kept some where I felt needed.
  • Sure. I have no issue with the oxford comma, so long as it consistent.Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:16, 8 October 2020 (UTC)
• Fair comment about over-linking and I knew full well I'd get pinged for it. This was lower on my priority list (#1 was sourcing). Having removed (I think) all duplicates, I wonder if it would serve the reader better to have ride names re-linked in the "Park layout" section? Mind they are re-linked in the table (which is appropriate)...
  • I'm happy enough with just one link, tables, captions etc. can have the secondary links. Best Wishes, Lee Vilenski ^{(talk • contribs)} 11:16, 8 October 2020 (UTC)

Really appreciate your helpful commentary. Keep the comments coming. — CR4ZE (T • C) 04:44, 7 October 2020 (UTC)

Review meta comments
