Reviewer: Some Dude From North Carolina (talk · contribs) 01:44, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 01:44, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

[edit]
  • Content on the infobox looks good.
  • However, I would improve the non-free rationale for the image with this template.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 16:33, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Channel 4 from 7 June 2017" → "Channel 4 on 7 June 2017"
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 16:33, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Wait, so are the names of the school and the town the same?
Yes. I removed the comment about the town in the lead, since the setting of the series is not majorly important to the theme of the show (the school is).

Production

[edit]
  • Mark the second reference after "The Forge" as dead since it's dead.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 16:33, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Mark the reference after "renamed Ackley Bridge" as dead.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 16:33, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Mark the reference after "7 June to 12 July 2017" as dead.
Replaced ref. – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 16:33, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Additionally, that reference after "7 June to 12 July 2017" doesn't mention any dates.
 Done Replaced with two separate references since there is no single ref that includes both dates. – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 16:33, 4 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • When I said to mark the two citations as dead, I meant that you should add the "|url-status=dead" parameter, not the [dead link] tag.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:23, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Casting

[edit]
  • Mark the reference after "real life" as dead by adding "|url-status=dead" to the citation.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:23, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • A reference is needed for Amy-Leigh Hickman being "known for playing Carmen Howle in Tracy Beaker Returns and The Dumping Ground"

Sentence removed. – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:23, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • A reference is also needed for Poppy Lee Friar playing the title character in Eve.
Removed as not relevant to this series and can be found on the actress' article. – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:23, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:23, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • What's the purpose of using the quote starting with "organised and driven" in this article?
Removed. – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:23, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, there are several quotes in the 2nd paragraph that are not needed so try removing some.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:23, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Add a comma after "The Crossley Heath School".

 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:45, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • In the last paragraph, does every character need a description? Maybe try simplifying the paragraph and merging it with the fourth one.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:45, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "The castings come" → "The castings came"

Reception

[edit]
  • Why is the last sentence from the Metro review just a summary of the show?
Removed. – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:57, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The second review is from The Daily Telegraph, not The Guardian, so I would correct the name and the citation.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:57, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Similarly, the first review in the second paragraph is from The Guardian, not the Telegraph as the citation says.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:57, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Also, that same paragraph looks messy since it's basically just one quote. Try reducing it with the help of WP:RECEPTION.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:57, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The reference after "placed in care" is from Digital Spy, not Metro.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 00:57, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

  • The source for the 2018 Irish Film & Television Academy Awards doesn't mention Ackley Bridge, Malcolm Campbell, or Robert Quinn.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 02:01, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Malcom Campbell" → "Malcolm Campbell"
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 02:01, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • Shouldn't the "Music" category from the Royal Television Society Yorkshire be mentioned last?
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 02:01, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • From that same ceremony, there are also multiple nominations not listed.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 02:01, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • The name of the show and its single nomination at the 2019 TV Choice Awards is not mentioned here.
 Done – DarkGlow (contribs • talk) 02:01, 5 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
  • So are the categories listed in alphabetical order per year, or is there something I'm not seeing here?
