Talk:James Franco/GA1

James Franco Admitted To University Of Houston Ph.D. Program
Sorry, I'm new to Wikipedia, but can someone add the fact that James Franco has been admitted to the University Of Houston Ph.D. Program? Here is a reference: http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2011/04/21/james-franco-houston_n_852348.html. He is also listed in the Creative Writing Program's newsletter at the following link: http://www.class.uh.edu/cwp/__docs/2010Newsletter.pdf. Thanks! — Preceding unsigned comment added by Juan249 (talk • contribs) 03:42, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

GA Review
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.''

The article's very close to GA, but here are a few pointers: That's about it - the article will be on hold for a week so good luck with making changes until then. — 97198   talk  10:30, 17 August 2008 (UTC)
 * he was elected by his senior class as the boy with the "best smile" - "the student"
 * Replaced. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * He was subsequently cast as title role in director Mark Rydell's 2001 TV biopic James Dean - "the title role"
 * Hope I got it. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * How does ref 14 support the statement "The role brought Franco much critical acclaim"? There is no credibility in one single source that he earned "much critical acclaim".
 * I think maybe removing the "critical acclaim" sentence would be best to do, cause right now it sorta sounds like POV. Thought? --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I think that'd probably be best, instead of quibbling over citations. — 97198   talk  06:25, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Has been removed. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 14:46, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * as well as nominated for an Emmy Award and a Screen Actors Guild Award - "as well as being"?
 * Done. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Link Spider-Man (the comic or the character) after "the film version of..."
 * I think I got it. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Franco was cast in Michael Caton-Jones' drama City by the Sea.[1][19] Both Spider-Man (2002) and Spider-Man 2 (2004) were very well-received critically and commercially.[20][21] - both these sentences seem to be stuck in irrelevantly. The first means nothing by itself; there is no indication of relation to the events at the time, like "the next year" or "in 2008" (just examples). The second sentence also means nothing standing alone; it indicates no relation to Franco whatsoever. Maybe it'd be better before the first mentioned sentence, when Spider-Man is being discussed?
 * I think I got it. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Art — painting in particular — is a talent Franco developed - no spaces between emdashes
 * Done. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * "Fool's Gold" & "Camille" link to a dab pages
 * Done. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Ref 34 - link/italicise "Los Angeles Times"
 * Done. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:44, 18 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Okay, awesome, I'll add the article to WP:GA. — 97198   talk  06:22, 19 August 2008 (UTC)
 * Thank you so much for the review. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 16:38, 20 August 2008 (UTC)
