Laurence Olivier[edit]

A well written, and comprehensive article, with a complete filmography, suitable formatting, the works.—Preceding unsigned comment added by Thefourdotelipsis (talk • contribs)

Object. No references or footnotes, for one thing. Also, it's rather thin — one graf on his early life? and not much more on the rest. It's a good starting point for what could become an FA but it is nowhere near ready for prime time. Daniel Case 04:09, 17 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Object. Not comphrehensive. Being a popular actor, I'd expect this article to be A LOT longer to meet featured status. There is very little information about his career, with the bulk of it being about his marriage and romances. I also noticed that the opening paragraph says he is "regarded by many critics as the greatest actor of the 20th century." There should be some citations from well known critics to verify this.--Fallout boy 06:22, 17 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
Object - Most of it is a list of credits (loads of which are red links), and it needs expanding and proper referencing. —Whouk (talk) 09:05, 17 March 2006 (UTC)[reply]
