Reviewer: QatarStarsLeague (talk · contribs) 03:42, 23 November 2012 (UTC) I will be reviewing this one. The review will commence in a few days. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 03:42, 23 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Lead

[edit]

The mention of the cost of the ride needs to be featured within the article's body.

It's already in the Awards and records section.--Astros4477 (talk) 17:05, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


The claim of the ride being the 18th mountain-based attraction also needs to be featured in the body

It's already in the Mountain section.--Astros4477 (talk) 17:06, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Isn't the ride themed about a lost train hurtling through the Himalayas, with the rogue train finally encountering the Yeti at the ride's denouement?

This is also mentioned later.--Astros4477 (talk) 17:08, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Other than this, the lead seems good.

Infobox

[edit]

References for all the statistics that do not have references within the article itself. Other than that, we are good.

Everything is either referenced in the article or it is on the RCDB link at the bottom of the infobox.--Astros4477 (talk) 17:04, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

History

[edit]

I will get to this in a bit. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 14:58, 26 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
This section is a laconian one, but I believe it passes.

"Laconian"? OED: "Of or pertaining to Laconia or its inhabitants; Lacedæmonian, Spartan." Wondering what you meant. --Stfg (talk) 10:25, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Queue

[edit]

I have been in this queue, so maybe a bit more can be discussed about the museum in the queue, and how the show Destination Truth donated Yeti paraphernalia to the ride's queue. Just a suggestion, otherwise it passes.

 Done--Astros4477 (talk) 20:41, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Layout

[edit]

You may want to expound to the reader that a helix is an inversion or, even simpler, a loop.

A helix is not an inversion or loop.--Astros4477 (talk) 19:47, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Trains

[edit]

Needs a few more stats about the trains themselves.

 Done--Astros4477 (talk) 20:04, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Track

[edit]

Good.

Facts

[edit]

Have other parks achieved this distinction? If so, you may want to tell the readers this.

Reached what distinction? If you're talking about going backwards, I don't really think we should add the other coasters that go backwards.--Astros4477 (talk) 20:06, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Mountain

[edit]

I see mention that this ride is Disney's 18th mountain attraction. Can you tell the readers how many mountain-based attractions there are in the Florida parks?

I added how many there are at all the Disney parks as the 18 refers to all the Disney Parks.--Astros4477 (talk) 19:54, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Yeti technical details

[edit]

Due to the lucid details given, I think this section is the best so far.

Promotions

[edit]

Stopping here to allow you time. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 03:06, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Discovery Channel

[edit]

I fixed a misspelling for Les Stroud (not Les Strout).
I need references for the Nepalese expedition.

 Done--Astros4477 (talk) 20:11, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


I need a reference for the innovative scaffolding used.

 Done--Astros4477 (talk) 20:29, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Other than that, this section passes.

Everest in the City

[edit]

This section passes.

Incidents

[edit]

The sole incident is covered well.

Awards and records

[edit]

I need refs for the Golden Ticket and Best Coaster Poll results.

They are there in the tables.--Astros4477 (talk) 19:48, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]


Everything else is good!

Conclusion

[edit]

This review went very smoothly, and as soon as the outstanding issues are addressed, I can pass this article! Congratulations! QatarStarsLeague (talk) 15:21, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I have addressed all your comments.--Astros4477 (talk) 20:42, 27 November 2012 (UTC)[reply]
