Improved to Good Article status by Matty.007 (talk), Prhartcom (talk). Nominated by Matty.007 (talk) at 11:39, 24 May 2014 (UTC).

  • Couple things. No QPQ yet, and the hook fact isn't actually cited in the article text (it's in a footnote, which is not the same thing; furthermore, if something's in the lede it generally is central enough to include in the body). Otherwise looks quite good. Referencing is thorough. GA review is recent enough. I'll have to AGF on the hook fact as the book doesn't seem to have preview mode here. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 16:28, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Apologies for my error as I don't often cite books: the note says Tintin in Tibet is the only Tintin adventure without an antagonist. "Even The Castafiore Emerald has a culpable magpie."[8] has a ref after it, and inline at but kept the idea of an adventure with no guns, violence, or antagonist.[7]. Is there a sourcing error with it? Thanks, Matty.007 17:26, 25 May 2014 (UTC)
  • The only issue is the placement of the hook fact, which is in a footnote (i.e. not in the body of the text). If you were able to merge it smoothly into the actual text, and provide a QPQ, this would be good to go. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 02:24, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • It is in the first paragraph of 'Background and early ideas', but kept the idea of an adventure with no guns, violence, or antagonist.[7][a]. QPQ coming today... Thanks, Matty.007 08:50, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Problem is, your hook fact is not that it had no antagonist, but that it was the only Tintin work to have no antagonist. That is in a footnote. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 09:51, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Sorry, my mistake. Changed. Thanks, Matty.007 10:40, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Great. Just waiting for a QPQ now. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 11:06, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Alright, I'll wait for it to develop a bit more. — Crisco 1492 (talk) 14:27, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
    • OK. You watching it or do you want updates here? Thanks, Matty.007 14:47, 26 May 2014 (UTC)
  • Good, QPQ is going swimmingly, everything else is checked out. Good to go! — Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:43, 27 May 2014 (UTC)
