Judgesurreal777 GA Review Spectacular!

I believe IOU a review, so here is one incoming! I'll be filling it out in the next little bit. Judgesurreal777 (talk) 02:20, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Rate	Attribute	Review Comment
1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	"They chose the games to be" seems an awkward phrasing. Is the concert series over? Some parts say it's ongoing, others say it ended in June, maybe I'm missing something... Other than that, it is masterfully written, a real pleasure, I was surprised to be honest!
	1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.	Manual of style followed to a T, might want to consider chopping the first paragraph in the introduction into two, it's big enough.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
	2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.	Reference list is present in an appropriate format.
	2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).	How do we know that JPGames.de., Cubed3, Cubed Gamers, Side One, or XOTV are reliable sources?
	2c. it contains no original research.	If above criteria 2b is me, then the article is extremely well referenced and we never go too long without getting a footnote to a reference.
	2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.	There is a lot of false positive in the copyright violation detection page due to the large number of titles and quotes from reviewers in this article, but no real copyright violation found.
3. Broad in its coverage:
	3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.	Any way we can get a music sample from the concert?
	3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).	Very focused on the concert series.
	4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.	A highly praised concert series, but seems like fair reviews with both sides are present.
	5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.	Very stable since it's creation recently, and no reason to believe there will be any edit worrying about this topic.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
	6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.	Only one copyright image and it has a fair use rationale that is very good. All the others are free use and extensively detailed.
	6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.	The image is present in the article are of the crucial players involved in the touring symphonic work, and are thus appropriate.
	7. Overall assessment.

A fantastic read! Let's give it seven days, let me know if you need more time or have questions about my feedback. Great job @PresN:! Judgesurreal777 (talk) 03:46, 12 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]

1a) Changed the one sentence, and clarified a few points that indicated June was the end- that's just the latest concert, and no more have been announced, but they almost certainly will announce some more in a few months for 2017 so it's not "over".
1b) Eh, the first paragraph is 7 sentences, so chopping it up would leave it a bit awkward
2b) JPGames.de: interview, large, active site (dozens of articles a day, numerous interviews), has an editorial team; Cubed3: has an editorial staff, incorporated, numerous interviews; Cubed Gamers: online site of an actual magazine (multiple issues produced), has an editor; Side One: interview, linked from the official Merregnon site here; XOTV: interview, recently defunct online magazine run by Baronet Entertainment as one of their multiple properties
3a) Sample added, good idea
5) Frankly, if the other Merregnon Studios concert articles are any guide, I'll be lucky if there's any editing by anyone else at all!

@Judgesurreal777: Alright, all sorted! --Pres N 04:11, 13 December 2016 (UTC)[reply]
