Comments:
 * 1) The biggest problem with this article is that it's written entirely in in-universe style. Per WP:WAF, Wikipedia articles should describe fiction and fictional elements from the perspective of the real world, not from the perspective of the fiction itself. This article lacks any secondary information that is external to the fictional universe, save for a small paragraph at the beginning of "Plot." For this reason, it fails in both the "adherence to the Manual of Style" and "broadness of coverage" categories, which means a fail for the article overall. This link details the types of information that should be present to be a Good Article about fiction, such as development processes and factors, reception and legacy. Obviously not every last one of those points has to be in this article but, without this information, this article should not even exist as a standalone work on Wikipedia, much less be a Good Article.
 * 2) Neither images list the exact article that the image is to be used in, which is a requirement for non-free content.
 * 3) "The Keymaker also appears in the short lampoon MTV: Reloaded, produced for the 2003 MTV Movie Awards." is mentioned in the lead, but not the body of the article, a violation of WP:LEAD.
 * 4) Per WP:REF, since most of the references in this article come after the punctuation, all of them should.
 * 5) "The Matrix Reloaded reveals that the keys may also have the ignition key capability, particularly to set on Ducati 996 motorcycle from a hauler." (Keys) This sort of seems like it's original research without a citation but, again, it's difficult to tell when everything is in in-universe style.

As mentioned above, I will be failing the article at this time. Thank you for your work thus far. Once these concerns have been addressed, the article may be renominated. If you feel that this assessment was in error, you may take it to WP:GAR. Cheers, CP 23:04, 20 January 2008 (UTC)

Needs work
I found this article confusing and believe it needs serious work. It doesn't seem to discuss Keymaker's role in the plot much; focuses instead on unspecified "orientalist fantasies" and "modelization programs". Seems to me that the article should be re-written to focus on the character's role in The Matrix and leave the interpretation for elsewhere. In contrast, other articles on minor Matrix characters describe their roles within the trilogy in less arcane terms.Cogware (talk) 07:04, 16 December 2010 (UTC)
