Prose and content
[edit]The season is produced
some issues with tense like this in the lead: while you can say the series is "based on characters" etc, in the present tense, production is an event in the past. Repeating issue.the Waverider
gloss
- I don't see a gloss for this
Rip Hunter's new Time Bureau, a replacement organization for the Time Masters
I am very lost
- So the Time Masters were a fictional organisation who oversaw time.
- Give a brief note of this. Rollinginhisgrave (talk) 01:44, 3 October 2024 (UTC)

Barnum captures Ray and Jax while Nate informs the Legends

I am going to leave this review here for now. The episodes list is very confusing, and not just because I'm unfamiliar with the show. Ping me when you copyedit this and I'll continue.
[continuing (restarting)]
steal the Waverider and capture the real Caesar
so the Caesar before was fake?
- Yes he was the "wrong man"
- Reword this sentence as it's unclear that Caesar is the wrong man being referred to.
- Yes he was the "wrong man"
Sara escapes, but the baby uses mind control
why "but"?
- Done
Later, Jax asks Ray to help him figure out a way to split Firestorm so that Stein may have a normal life.

examples ofMallus' work

but they escape after killing several Bureau agents led by Rip
ambiguous who "they" refers to

I don't understand how this exchange works. Why would this be a deal?Jax and Martin swap bodies after a failed attempt to transfer Firestorm to Jax.
intentionally or unintentionally?
- Done
the other male Legends start a fight over Helen
what does this mean? With each other? With Helen? With other people? With other people and each other?
- Done
Meanwhile, Lamarr's switch from actress to operator means she no longer invents FHSS
This just drops in that she has apparently switched to an operator. Introduce this.
- Done
When Nate informs the Legends of his actions. Amaya reveals to him why she broke up with him in 2017.
grammar
This section is still extremely confusing. The prose is very ambiguous and poorly written. It feels like it is written for people who have already seen the episodes. The whole episodes list needs a copyedit before I continue. Rollinginhisgrave (talk) 01:44, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
[continuing]
Sara, visits Amaya and convinces her to return, much to Nate's displeasure.
lose the first comma, perhaps also the seconddiscovers the Kusas
is this a misspelling of Kuasa?Sara escapes,d the
grammar in this sentenceafter their attempt transfer
attempt to transferLamarr's
lose the 'sJax, inspired by a powerless Sara's abilities
powerless because she's in a coma or in general? What abilities are referred to here?succumbing to his injuries
MOS:EUPHEMISM, also it doesn't seem like he dies here- In episode 9, some inconsistency in referring to young Stein as young Stein, Stein, Martin and Martin Stein
but is
eventuallyexposed by the Legendshe needs he help of the
the helpwho claims that he needs he help of the Legends with a demon who knows her name and is controlling a little girl.
crazy sentence, rewrite to be clearerConstantine tells the Legends about the demon Mallus,
whom Sara encountered,reveals that he is tormenting Darhk's daughter Nora
Constantine or Mallus is tormenting Nora?before taking Nora out for coffee, Mallus possesses Nora
comma inappropriate hereby the totem the gives her powers
"the gives her powers"?
Suggestions
[edit]The series was met with positive reviews from critics. Critics praised the season for its goofiness and cast
→ from critics who praised (avoid repetition of critics)
- fixed
in 1870 Wisconsin, when they come across
instead of when, "where"

- @Rollinginhisgrave: I have made the copy edits in the episodes list. Interestingly the episode list was the only section I didn't make major edits to Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 15:38, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- All good, always the way. Glad I'll be able to get to stuff that is less confusing. Rollinginhisgrave (talk) 01:44, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
- @Rollinginhisgrave: so I copy edited the list. I left the cross over one alone as it includes epiosdes not in the list. Any issues I missed or are we good to move on? Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 04:00, 5 October 2024 (UTC)

- Failing this, some really obvious grammar and spelling mistakes after I've asked you to copyedit it twice. I've asked you three times to reword "Amaya learns of Mari's vigilantism and leaves Nate." to make it clearer and nothing has changed. Although less confusing, it's still quite confusing.
