Hi! I will be reviewing this soon as it has been assigned to me at GARC. Excited to tackle something other than my usual topics. You can ping me any time if there are doubts during the review process.--N Ø 12:22, 26 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

The body of an article is treated as separate from the lead, so you should introduce Ben Aldridge as the actor portraying Captain James in the Storylines section.

It is not clear to me what 2-Section is upon reading the article. Is it possible to incorporate information related to that, possibly at the first mention?
- Done It's the main unit in the show. FishLoveHam (talk) 09:17, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"After Molly returns from her rest and recuperation leave, she confesses her love for him, feelings which he reciprocates, despite having an estranged wife, Rebecca (Alice Patten), and a son." - This has a few too many commas. Is there a way to rephrase or split the sentence?

"Captain James is injured in battle" - Who was he battling?
- Not done The taliban, I left it out since it would be the only mention of it and would flow awkwardly otherwise. FishLoveHam (talk) 09:17, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - I will leave this up to you.--N Ø 09:41, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
"He later witnesses Elvis's death and is crushed by it." - Since this is in wikivoice, "crushed" seems a bit theatrical. Maybe "saddened" by it?

Link laissez-faire and italicize

The Development and Reception sections look mostly fine, but you may wanna paraphrase some of those quotes, especially one-word ones.

I am not sure the link to the show's first episode is necessary.
- Why not? FishLoveHam (talk) 09:17, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - It is not necessary or particularly useful in understanding either of the sentences where it is linked. FAs like Kes (Star Trek) and Bart Simpson do not link to episodes that do not have their own articles.--N Ø 09:41, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    - Can't say I agree but Done FishLoveHam (talk) 11:49, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Our Girl should be italicized in the ref titles. Digital Spy is italicized in the references but not in the article text, so that is something that should be consistent.
- Not necessary. FishLoveHam (talk) 09:17, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
  - Huh? Consistent formatting is a basic expectation from articles designated as high quality. The guideline is documented at MOS:CONFORMTITLE.--N Ø 09:41, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    I'm willing to do it. I just found it excessive as featured articles like Bart Simpson, Sadie Harris, Eve Russell, and Poppy Meadow don't. Apologies! FishLoveHam (talk) 11:41, 29 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Is the Radio Times considered a reliable source for critical commentary? Its article says it is a listings magazine.
- The Radio Times website has grown beyond its original function as a TV listings provider. Critical commentary is now a significant part of it. Its writers are professionals with experience, including the two listed. The publication is also Tomatometer-approved, which I can't imagine from a site that can't be used for critical commentary.
