GA Review

Alright, the article's looking pretty good already but here are a few suggestions for improvement: That's about it - the article will be on hold for seven days so good luck with the changes until then :) — 97198 talk  09:50, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 *  The event starred wrestlers from the SmackDown! brand: a storyline expansion of the promotion where employees are assigned to a wrestling brand under the WWE banner - I don't see a need for a colon instead of a comma.
 * The leading staged rivalry going into the event was between (David Bautista, Jr.) and King Booker (Booker Huffman) - should there be a "Batista" in there?
 * Then, on the December 15, 2006 edition of SmackDown! - we don't really need the "then" at the beginning.
 * Cena defeated Finlay in a non-title match after lifting Finlay up on his shoulders and slamming him to the mat, a move dubbed the FU, [10] - ??? End of a sentence missing?
 * The hearse drove to the ring, appearing to have nobody in the drivers seat to drive the car - "driver's seat".
 * The Undertaker appeared from the back of the hearse, as Kennedy sprung from the ring, immediately - what's happening immediately? If they're happening at the same time ("as"), then we don't need the "immediately".
 * On the December 15, 2008 edition of SmackDown! - if this is background, why are we whizzing two years into the future to 2008? ;)
 * ...which ended in neither wrestler winning the match - "neither" refers to only two wrestlers, but there are four in the match. Maybe say "neither team".
 * He threatened to run him over with a hearse that had appeared again - "the hearse", if it's the same one.
 * Oleg Prudius defeated Scotty 2 Hotty in a dark match, a non televised match - "non-televised".
 * The first match to air live was between Kane and Montel Vontavious Porter (MVP) - it's a new section, but it's still been stated above what MVP stands for, I don't think we need to spell it out again.
 * Same with the image caption. Exclude the "(MVP)" because there isn't any following usage.
 * The only way to win an Inferno match is by throwing your opponent into a fire that surrounds the ring on all four sides - using "your" is informal; say "by throwing one's opponent".
 * ...the only way to win and capture the titles, was by climbing a ladder - no comma needed.
 * Both men had different scenes in the match where they were in control - kind of awkward to read; can we reword?
 * ...where the only way to win was by throwing your opponent into a hearse and driving it out of the arena - again, don't use "your".
 * A back and forth match took place - "back-and-forth".
 * The Undertaker then opened the hearse door, exposing all the broken glass inside and Kennedy into the car and drove the hearse out of the arena to win the match - this sentence doesn't really make sense to me; maybe check if it's worded correctly.
 * The host of the contest was Santa Claus (who was portrayed by Big Dick Johnson) - no need for "who was".
 * Is "diva" capitalised? Main event matches section uses both ways, so pick one and change the other.
 * I've completed your requests. Also, I'd like to state that sooner rather than later, I plan on adding the event's reception. -- iMa tth ew  T.C. 11:22, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Could you do that before the GAN hold expires? Because that'd probably be better to satisfy the broadness GA criterion. — 97198 talk  06:28, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Awesome. Just a couple more things:
 * Can we get a source for the statement "The Richmond Coliseum has a maximum capacity of 13,500, but that was reduced for Armageddon (2006)"?
 * I'm not sure we should use the customer poll from Amazon.com - it's not a reliable or accurate representation of fan opinion or the event's (or even DVD's) popularity.
 * — 97198 (talk) 13:58, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Well, SummerSlam (2003) just passed it's FAC, and there was a bit about the Amazon reception, so it seems fine. Also, I can't find any sources, but the Wikipedia article for the Richmond Coliseum says it can hold 13,500 people, and all pro-wrestling PPV's are reduced due to the stage. -- iMa tth ew  T.C. 14:16, 23 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Well, I guess there aren't any Nielsen ratings or other similar figures available to determine popularity with fans, so this is really the closest we can get. And for the unsourced thing, I guess the information's not really controversial but it'd be good if you could find a source outside WP for the usual capicity being 13,500. — 97198 (talk) 01:56, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Done. -- iMa tth ew  T.C. 02:34, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Alrighty, nice work. I'm happy to promote to GA. — 97198 (talk) 02:48, 24 August 2008 (UTC)
