Date and size are fine, but the first hook is a , as it has no reference in body. Further, the entire plot and characters sections are unreferenced. The second hook is fine, but the article needs the above sections referenced. Till then it is . Please ping me on talk for a quick re-review. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 12:46, 15 June 2012 (UTC)

It does include references in the Development section, and as far as I know plot rarely has citations... Nik thestoned 00:10, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

He's right, plot doesn't need to be cited. It's sourced implicitly to the work. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 08:59, 20 June 2012 (UTC)
If somebody else wants to pass it with the unereferenced plot, I will not object. --_{Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus| reply here} 11:51, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

I'd rather have sources on the character section. For plot, even featured articles like Ruma Maida don't cite the plot. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:18, 20 June 2012 (UTC)

Having not read this book, I got all of that from searching it on Google books, so I take it that's a sufficient source? Nik thestoned 08:54, 21 June 2012 (UTC)

I guess. Rest of the article looks fine. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 10:07, 21 June 2012 (UTC)
