GA Review[edit]

Okay, the article's looking awesome right now, and there are just a few little things that need fixing to achieve GA status:

  • As the episode – and the series – comes to a close -> use emdashes here.
    • Per WP:DASH, ndashes can be used in place of mdashes at any time, and since I am averse to mdashes (they don't exist in my mothertongue), I have reverted to ndashes after Mastrchf 's change. – sgeureka tc 18:58, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • by having them sleep together without a confrontation -> do we need the euphemism for sex?
  • Claudia Black and Michael Shanks protested this intended story -> I usually would say that "somebody protests something", but rather they protest against something, just as one would disagree with or object to.
  • VisFX matte extention were used -> "extension"?
  • making Stargate SG-1 the third most-watched programme for Sky One -> we're talking about a British channel but we've used American spelling up till this point, so keep it consistent and use "program".
  • IGN does not need italicising.
  • Image:Stargate SG-1 Unending.jpg is currently twice the size as it is used in the article, which seems unnecessary per resolution restrictions under fair use.

You've got a week to make any necessary changes to the article - good luck :) —97198 talk 07:59, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I've done everything except the image resizing, which I should be able to do soon. Mastrchf (t/c) 14:52, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Image resized to 400x225 (0.09 megapixels), which should be alright per the discussion at Wikipedia talk:Non-free content#NFCC #3b - how low is 'low-res'?. The make-up is discussed in the article, so a little extra zooming-in should be allowed. Oh, and thanks for the review, 97198. – sgeureka tc 18:58, 31 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article looks pretty good, my only real issue that has yet to be brought up is the removal of the second paragraph in the lead section. I do not feel that it is necessary or really adds much to the article.--88wolfmaster (talk) 08:56, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

As the lead section is supposed to summarise an article, I think it's absolutely fine and necessary to provide a wholistic synopsis of the article. All other changes look good, and so does the low-res, and at this point I'm happy to promote :) —97198 talk 10:53, 1 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]
