Hi. I'll review this article. Alexeyevitch^(talk) 00:48, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

@Kung Fu Man: Done. I'm sure this article can be passed once these comments are adressed. Alexeyevitch^(talk) 03:02, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

@Alexeyevitch: I think I got everything. I set the last ref to usurped, which should allow the archive to properly show the DiGRA paper without showing the other site.--Kung Fu Man (talk) 03:34, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

Thanks. That's better formatting for the ref. Passing now. Alexeyevitch^(talk) 03:47, 6 June 2026 (UTC)

1. Well-written:
	1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.	A denizen of a radioactive Australia [...] - what's a denizen? The two engage on a crime spree → The two engage in a crime spree [...] though come into conflict with the city Junkertown and its ruler, Junker Queen - I'd replace though with "but later" particularly for how well critics feel its suits his overall personality - typo Blizzard's portrayal of cultures through him → cultural portrayal [...] more alien that human - typo Tsang suggested to have the character missing limbs - missing word taking inspiration from the Mad Max film universe - replace "universe" with "franchise" though have a 'cooldown' period after use - missing word the "Gollum the Overwatch universe" - the "Gollum [of] the Overwatch universe"
	1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.	Of note, his 'King Jamison' skin [...] - remove "Of note" unless stated by the souce (MOS:EDITORIAL) In all appearances, he is voiced by Chris Parson[2] - (MOS:REFPUNCT)
2. Verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check:
	2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.	References are properly/tidily listed
	2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).	the article uses reliable sources, mostly news websites focusing on video games. there is one YouTube source, but is authored by Jeff Kaplan, which appears to be a qualified person on the subject, instead of a video from a blank account I just noticed the last reference of the article redirects to an online gambling site. please remove this.
	2c. it contains no original research.	[2] check [3] check [4] check [5] check [6] check [11] check; I would instead say "a "Clown" skin drew responses from Twitter users referring to it as sexually appealing". Also, I'm not sure if "Clown" needs to be capitalised and in quotemarks. [12] check; Overwatch 2 can be linked [14] check [15] check [16] check [17] check [18] check
	2d. it contains no copyright violations or plagiarism.	Earwig finds nothing of concern, neither did I on the spotcheck
3. Broad in its coverage:
	3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.	Yes
	3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).	Yes
	4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.	No issues here
	5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.	Article is stable with no ongoing edit wars
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
	6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.	File:Overwatch-Junkrat.png Fair Use Y
	6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.	Caption is sufficient
	7. Overall assessment.
