Nominator(s): TheDoctorWho (talk) 09:49, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured list because as a streaming television series this series has beat all the odds. Television series that are sequels to former film series typically don't fare well, which can be seen with the animated Karate Kid TV series. Those that do, rarely feature large appearances from the original cast. It was also essentially cancelled by YouTube yet managed to find a new service to stream on. On top of that, it survived COVID-19 and the double strikes of 2023. As the original film approaches its forty-year anniversary it feels like the proper time to nominate this. I recently expanded the lead on this, and with the addition of the sixth season table, I believe it should be a featured list. TheDoctorWho (talk) 09:49, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

[edit]
  • "Cobra Kai is an American comedy-drama and Martial arts television series" - no need for capital M on martial
  • "the first four films in The Karate Kid (franchise)," => "the first four films in The Karate Kid franchise,"
  • "picks up 30 years after 1984 titular film" => "picks up 30 years after the 1984 titular film"
  • "The series first season" => "The series' first season" (or "The first season of the series")
  • "The series first season premiered [....] and released a second season the following year on April 24" - the first season did not release the second season, so this does not make sense grammatically
  • "on the then renamed YouTube Premium" => "on the renamed YouTube Premium"
  • "as Daniel LaRusso and Johnny Lawrence, respectively" - that comma isn't needed
  • "After the series concludes, Sony is" - this doesn't really work grammatically. If I have understood the context correctly, I would suggest "Sony is developing a sixth feature film to be released after the series concludes"
  • "a sixth feature film that chronologically includes the 2010 reboot film" - the sixth film will not include the 2010 film, so this doesn't work grammatically
  • "Cobra Kai has received critical acclaim[31][32][33] receiving" - comma needed after "acclaim"
  • "with each respective seasons release" => "with each respective season's release"
  • "As of September 9, 2022, 50 episodes" - that date was nearly 18 months ago, is the sentence still accurate? -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 12:05, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    All done. The sentence is still accurate, per the template instructions that date should only be updated when new episodes air/release. That is the release date of the most recent season. TheDoctorWho (talk) 22:00, 20 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Accessibility review (MOS:DTAB)

[edit]
  • Tables need captions, which allow screen reader software to jump straight to named tables without having to read out all of the text before it each time. For the template you're using (in the season lists), visual captions can be added by putting |caption=caption_text in the Episode table template; if that caption would duplicate a nearby section header, you can make it screen-reader-only by putting |caption={{sronly|caption_text}} instead.
  • Please see MOS:DTAB for example table code if this isn't clear. I don't return to these reviews until the nomination is ready to close, so ping me if you have any questions. --PresN 03:47, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
    Added, thanks for the reminder! TheDoctorWho (talk) 04:03, 26 February 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Comments from ZooBlazer
  • this was delayed to 2024 - The season was delayed to 2024
  • the end of the first while Thomas Ian Griffith - Add a comma after first
  • As of September 9, 2022, 50 episodes of Cobra Kai have been released, concluding the fifth season. - This can be moved to the beginning of the episodes section.
  • It should also be sourced.

That's all I have. Good work on the article. -- ZooBlazer 18:12, 1 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I've addressed your first two points as well as the last one. I'm hoping the third one won't keep you from supporting? I'll move it if I have to, but it's common practice across most List of Episode pages to use this template near the end of the lead. See [2], [3], [4], and [5] which are all featured lists and have this sentence in a similar location. TheDoctorWho (talk) 20:11, 2 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
It's all good. Support -- ZooBlazer 18:17, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Source review passed; promoting. --PresN 16:30, 11 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
