GA Review

[edit]
This review is transcluded from Talk:Not Quite Hollywood/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Hello, I have reviewed this article per the criteria listed at WP:GA?. There is nothing obvious to prevent the promotion of this article to GA, but I'll leave you a free peer review below.

  • Images - okay
  • Sources - okay
  • MOS - okay
  • Lead:
    • I don't see the statement "(often shortened to Not Quite Hollywood)" as controversial, so refs are not strictly necessary.
    • The first sentence of the second paragraph is somewhat confusing with the many commas and hyphens. Better split in two.
    • "which were considered vulgar and offensive by critics and film historians" can be written into active voice "which critics and film historians considered vulgar and offensive"
  • It's unfortunate that the column templates in the "Interviewees" section cause a considerable gap between the intro sentence and the list (at least on my wide screen), but I guess there is nothing that can be done about it. (I'm just pointing this out in case you know a way around it.)
  • Production:
    • the sentence "After becoming an accomplished music video director.." has the word "become" twice
    • "He was close to giving up on the project" runs a little long and has many commas, i.e. potentially confusing for the reader
    • "The film also screened..." - The intro starts with "Not Quite Hollywood [...] was screened" so I am not sure if you forgot a word or if its proper English
  • I personally wouldn't link to Australian Film Insitute Award for Best Documentary, as your article is currently the only article linking there.
  • It is possible to add the box office winnings to the infobox
  • Per [1] no undabbed items (good!)

Thanks for the review! All the suggested changes have been made, with the exception of the box office gross in the infobox - I haven't been able to find a running total; the figures in the article are only the earnings for the first two weeks of release.
