TodayTix

[edit]
  • ... that TodayTix, a ticket-buying app, launched the first mobile lotteries for theater tickets for both New York's Broadway and London's West End?

  • New enough, long enough. Hook short enough and sourced. No neutrality problems found, no copyright problems found. QPQ done and image nonexistent. However, the final section, Drawbacks and criticism, would be best expressed in continuous prose rather than bullet points - straight lists of advantages and/or disadvantages are discouraged.--Launchballer 12:02, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
  • Far be it from me to argue with the MOS (except when it comes to formatting caesura hyphens — the official guideline is just wrong about that), Launchballer; easy fix, already done. Thanks for the review! —GrammarFascist contribstalk 16:27, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
That's a bit better, although I had intended something along the lines of Top Gear (2002 TV series)#Criticism. As it stands, what's there is still a list, although less obviously.--Launchballer 18:28, 14 November 2015 (UTC)
Well, Launchballer, I'm constrained by what the sources actually say, of course. After looking over what I had, I decided to instead convert the section to a balanced overview of the app's "Reception" rather than having it be all "Drawbacks and criticism". Has that resolved the issue? —GrammarFascist contribstalk 23:09, 15 November 2015 (UTC)
Much better. Good to go.--Launchballer 11:23, 16 November 2015 (UTC)
