Result: Delisted. 🌙Eclipse (she/they/all neos • talk • edits) 11:42, 7 May 2025 (UTC)

Poorly reviewed article + Zero spot checks + The prose doesn't read good, especially the reception section. 🍕BP!🍕 (🔔) 20:36, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

• Delist - @SleepyRedHair clearly saw the request by another user telling them to spotcheck, and they ignored it. Therefore, I am supporting a delist of this article from GA status. Freedoxm (talk · contribs) 20:40, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

  I did not ignore the spotcheck request, I thought that's what that was. I checked the GA review instructions but it never clarified what a spotcheck is exactly, so I assumed that it meant "choose a sample of sources and check if it matches the attached text and no copyrighted material is used".

  I do not believe that a spot check was not performed. Either way, I feel that the article is not GA ready, as demonstrated by it being approved with a USERGEN source Cukie Gherkin (talk) 22:47, 5 May 2025 (UTC)

  Cukie Gherkin (wrong person) SleepyRedHair, you did not specify the sources in the review. Tzar just happened to know which one it was and removed it. Additionally, I pointed to the appropriate page (WP:GAN/I#R3), which gives instructions on how to do a spotcheck. — 🌙Eclipse (she/they/all neos • talk • edits) 12:13, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

  To be specific, I removed it; there was a dispute over the source (TV.com's) removal by Tzar. Cukie Gherkin (talk) 12:15, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

  Cukie Gherkin, I pinged you by accident. Please ignore my reply. — 🌙Eclipse (she/they/all neos • talk • edits) 12:16, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

• Delist - some questionable sources and definitely needs a lot of rewriting l ke (talk • contribs) 00:04, 6 May 2025 (UTC)
• Delist - disappointing to see the nominator mention on the talk page that "copyediting wasn't that necessary", because I see a lot of clunky prose and lack of flow between ideas. Copyediting was wrongfully skipped over in this nomination. Sergecross73 msg me 16:31, 6 May 2025 (UTC)
• Comment Just noting that the nominator has been banned so they cannot address any improvements. Any objections to an WP:IAR/WP:SNOW close once a day or two pass? Tarlby ^{(t) (c)} 17:52, 6 May 2025 (UTC)

  I think that would be reasonable Cukie Gherkin (talk) 21:21, 6 May 2025 (UTC)
