Reviewer: QatarStarsLeague (talk · contribs) 16:55, 12 April 2013 (UTC) I will be reviewing this article along with Hydra the Revenge. QatarStarsLeague (talk) 16:55, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Lead[edit]

As I do not see a reference elsewhere, I will require a citation be given for the following posit: "Talon was known to be one of the longest inverted roller coaster in the Northeast when it opened in 2001."
All else is good within the lead!

Dom added a couple of sources to the lead. I also added a line in the history section with a different source. Themeparkgc Talk 00:36, 13 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox[edit]

All is fine here.

History[edit]

Excellent adducing! However, if possible, I would like to see a mention of the design process of Bollinger and Mabillard within the History section.

Though that would be excellent, B&M's design/manufacturing process is top secret (for competition reasons).--Dom497 (talk) 20:09, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ride experience[edit]

This section is fine.

Trains[edit]

The one reference given is applicable to the entire section.

Track[edit]

Excellent!

Awards[edit]

Fine here.

Conclusion[edit]

All sections pass, aside from the lead, which needs just one small addition. The pictures are also suitable for utilization. Therefore, I will pass this article as soon as all proposed changes are made. Congratulations! QatarStarsLeague (talk) 17:18, 12 April 2013 (UTC)[reply]
