Starting per a request on the Discord server, so let's hope it can make it to DYK in time for Halloween! MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 01:24, 21 October 2023 (UTC)
 * Just to clarify, this was part of an idea to have a DYK set of Halloween hooks and I said I could review any pending spooky GANs, which led me here per a suggestion from the unrelated ... no canvassing, we promise.

Source reliability
Responding to questioned sources:


 * www.image-ten.com Primary source: studio.
 * Homepage of the Dead Primary source: Karl Hardman and Marilyn Eastman.
 * TribLIVE This is an online news site formed from several PA newspapers (Tribune-Review, Valley News Dispatch, Leader Times, Daily Courier and The Valley Independent) see Pittsburgh Tribune-Review or.
 * diamonddead.com Primary source: George Romero.
 * Ain't It Cool News Influential pop culture site: Used by the The Guardian, New York Times, and MIT.
 * HorrorMovies.ca removed
 * Events.getoutaz.com Published by the East Valley Tribune, a major Arizona newspaper. On archived versions of the newspaper site from that time there is a "Get Out" tab linking to getoutaz.com.
 * Cinema-suicide.com I removed the sentence with this citation as unnecessary.
 * ScreenAge Wasteland Covered in the linked wiki article.
 * www.scoop.co.nz Independent news site and member of the NZ Media Council. It's used to cite a single fact that the play was performed in Auckland, New Zealand.
 * Allmovie I've replaced one citation with shortened footnotes to more reliable sources and removed the other as redundant. The external link at the bottom is not used to cite content.
 * Sequart Replaced with Harper (2005).

Here's a diff if any of my explanations of changes don't make sense: Thanks for taking a look at the article, Rjjiii  (talk) 03:28, 21 October 2023 (UTC)


 * Also, I have paraphrased the long quotes except for the Ebert review block quotation. I'll scan the text soon and look for smaller quotations to paraphrase. I don't think these will affect Earwig's score. There are a lot of proper nouns in the article (people, films, companies, lawsuits, etc.), and that's what I mainly see Earwig highlighting now.

 * @Rjjiii done reviewing, lovely work. After the prose is adjusted per above comments, it's close to FA already, like you mentioned on the article's talk page. MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 18:24, 21 October 2023 (UTC)

Cast
I think most of the issues in other sections were straightforward. For the cast, I added a one-paragraph introduction and cut down the info on individual cast members. Let me know if the list is too verbose still and I can do a second pass to flatten it more. Keith Wayne is up for deletion, so I put the anchor into the article for a redirect, but have left the link in for now. Thanks for the kind words and the fresh eyes. This has been quite helpful.

 * Very nice work, I think the cast list looks much better. Good to go for GA- hope to see it at DYK soon ;) MyCatIsAChonk (talk) (not me) (also not me) (still no) 12:36, 22 October 2023 (UTC)
