GA Review[edit]

Hello, I will be reviewing this to be a Good Article. The good news is that so far, it passes the Quick Fail criteria, which means a full review will be forthcoming. Check back soon. FamicomJL 21:33, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

On hold[edit]

1. MoS and prose WEAK FAIL The prose is fine, and the only real issue I have is with the citations. In some sentences, where there are two citations, they are added out of order. For example, the sentence about the Lex Express, has citation 27 come before citation 26. It should be the other way around. Same for the other out of order citations, including the sentence where Jerry Lawler is announced as the winner, the sentence where Yokozuna is proclaimed still the champion and the sentence where Borga confronts Luger in the locker room.

2. Factual accuracy and verifiability PASS No issues here, some sites are from Geocities and Angelfire, but 80% of the citations come from reliable sources. Just make sure to watch out for better sources in exchange of the Geocities and Angelfire ones.

3. Broadness of coverage PASS The article's background and feud section was very well done. I have a blurry memory of wrestling in the Summer of 1993, and this article did very well in explaining what went on before, during, and after SummerSlam. I think this is the most well done coverage on a wrestling article I've ever seen.

4. Neutrality PASS Definite pass. No netruality issues here.

5. Stability PASS The event is 14 years old, so there's no stability issues. From a look at the edit history, there have been no edit wars and disagreements.

6. Images FAIL Both of the images need to have a fair use rationale, and they don't. Please make one for each.

7. Article is as of right now, is ON HOLD, pending a few corrections. Just add a fair use rationale to the images, and fix the above citation issue, and this article should pass and be a Good Article.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask me on my talk page, or on this article's talk page. I do admit I will more than likely respond faster if it is asked on my talk page, however. Thanks, and good luck! FamicomJL 23:56, 7 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Good work with the citation fixing. All you need to do is add the fair use rationale for the poster (I didn't notice the other one had the fair use, my apologies), and the article passed. FamicomJL 03:37, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

GA passed[edit]

And congratulations! My requirements have been made, and this is now a Good Article! Good work to all involved! FamicomJL 16:20, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Orphaned references in SummerSlam (1993)[edit]

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of SummerSlam (1993)'s orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 04:22, 9 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
