I am nominating this for featured list because it has been significantly reworked from its original state and now I am convinced it satisfies the criteria. Tables have been merged in order to show in a good way Leto's different activities. Earthh (talk) 19:50, 8 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]

- Comments by Mymis
- "...in Fight Club (1999), which polarized critics." -> What polarized critics? The film itself or his performance?
- The film itself.
- "His acting in the addiction drama won praise and raves.." -> Maybe "received" instead of "won"? And what is the difference between "praise" and "raves"? I'd just leave "praise".
- Fixed.
- "He also began to direct music videos for Thirty Seconds to Mars, with the first being "The Kill" (2006)." -> Maybe a bit more about it? At least a mention of how many of videos he has directed.
- He's still directing music videos, I find it an information better explained in the article's table, don't you think?
- "Critical response praised the film's artistry" -> Reads oddly. Critics praised the film not the critical response.
- Fixed.
- "After a five-year hiatus, Leto..." -> The source that you use says "a six-year hiatus".
- Changed to "six-year hiatus".
- "...in the critically praised 2013 drama" -> No source for that.
- Removed the unsourced statement.

- Thank you for your comments, Jimknut and Mymis; sorry for the long delay in replying, I've been away for over a week. Please look at my responses to your points and let me know if you have answers to my questions or any further concerns.--Earthh (talk) 20:50, 18 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- It is still unclear what was polarizing about Fight Club by reading it. You instead could mention that it gained a cult status or something.
- You could still mention something more about the music videos, now there is just one sentence, while the table takes up quite bit of space within the article.
Mymis (talk) 23:21, 20 July 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Mymis, I mentioned the cult status of Fight Club and added the most notable facts about his music videos, let me know if you have any further concerns. Thank you!--Earthh (talk) 23:41, 3 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Great! Good work on the article. You have my support. Good luck with the nomination! Mymis (talk) 01:07, 4 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Comments from Retrohead (lead only)
- "The show was praised for its portrayal of adolescence and gained a strong cult following, despite being canceled after only one season." Maybe omit strong as a peacock term, and explain why the show was canceled after the first season (no finances, low ratings, something else?)
- Fixed.
- The prose in the introduction is flawlessly written, so bravo for that. Maybe you can find if some of his music videos earned him an award (thinking of MTV Music Video Awards, the Grammy's, etc)
- I mentioned the MTV Video Music Award for Best Direction.
- Overall, pretty solid article considering it's in the list's category. Here's my support for your effort.--Retrohead (talk) 14:46, 13 August 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Source review – All of the refs look solid in terms of reliability. Ref 19 doesn't give the last name of Leto's character in Urban Legend, which is needed for verifiability. I don't see his name or character in the ref for Sunset Strip, which is another problem. Of the three sources I checked, only ref 30 (for Alexander) verifies everything, so some fixes are required. Giants2008 (Talk) 21:07, 3 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- Giants2008, I checked the sources and replaced some of them with new links (mostly AllMovie and NT Times' articles) in which credits and roles are both verifiable.--Earthh (talk) 22:40, 11 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
- The changes look good. I checked the cites for Panic Room and Lonely Hearts and those turned out fine. I'm going to go ahead and promote the list now. Do be aware of this issue for your future work. Giants2008 (Talk) 21:05, 17 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
