Spidey GA nom
I truly do plan on finishing the ref cleanup for the last little bit of the article soon. Just took a little break from here for the most part this month.

After that, I think we should just do c/e and submit it for GA review. We can add merchandise at a later date or just skip it because it's not a super important section. -- Zoo (talk) 20:51, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Good plans. (Seen you were very active the past two days since the SDCC P5 & 6 reveal) Merchandise can be done after the GA nom really, not important. — SirDot (talk) 20:55, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah. My break was mostly to recharge between new content releasing but SDCC added lots of stuff to do so I figured I'd help out some. -- Zoo (talk) 20:59, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Oof. The in other media section is full of half effort refs. Like they're not even properly cited. Definitely need to find better refs for a chunk of the section before we nominate -- Zoo (talk) 21:54, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Yup. There's a "Disney Parks Blog" source for Web-Slingers, so I'm guessing that's just a blog. There's "Spidermannews.com" in Appearances, I presume to be a fansite, but I think I saved a better source (Screen Rant I think) in my clipboard. — SirDot (talk) 21:57, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I think all refs are fully organized. The other media section just needs the new refs and some archiving, then I think we're good for c/e of the article -- Zoo (talk) 22:05, 25 July 2022 (UTC)
 * @ZooBlazer Replaced the SMnews.com and DPBlog sources with SR and Marvel.com, ITSV refs too. Gonna nominate (I did it 2 weeks ago but hid it yesterday night). — SirDot (talk) 11:17, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
 * And now... we wait -- Zoo (talk) 15:05, 26 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Have you put any thought into a potential DYK? I just decided on one today for Thanos and it got me thinking about eventually needing one for Spidey. -- Zoo (talk) 22:55, 27 July 2022 (UTC)

I'm waiting till it passes as a GA, since one of the expansions is "Improved to GA status" (don't know if expanded 5x). I don't know any interesting facts. — SirDot (talk) 08:36, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm sure there are many options, but I came across this one... Tom Holland Opened Up About Wearing a Thong in the New "Spider-Man: Homecoming" Movie -- Zoo (talk) 15:25, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Doesn't the DYK need to be something that is actually in the article? — SirDot (talk) 16:24, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm not entirely sure. I thought it could be that or just something about the article topic. I've never done one before. I guess it's a good thing the one I plan on eventually doing for Thanos relates to article info. All I've really seen is for it to be an "interesting hook". -- Zoo (talk) 16:30, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I thought of a hook related to Matt Lintz, who's Bruno in Ms. Marvel, having auditioned for Spider-Man. However, that's a bit too Ms. Marvel-centric. I'll look over the article for interesting facts. — SirDot (talk) 16:37, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Do you have any new GA projects planned now that Spidey is "finished"? For me, I'm thinking about Wanda or the Avengers, or I may begin working on Phase Four projects. -- Zoo (talk) 23:32, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I'm restarting work on Tobey-Man as a GA project (did little work while you did a break on the MCU Spidey one) Doing Andrew's Spidey too. Good luck on Wanda or Avengers when you start work on those! — SirDot (talk) 23:36, 28 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Both have a lot of work needed so I'm not looking forward to the early days of working on either. It'll be worth it in the long term though -- Zoo (talk) 23:55, 28 July 2022 (UTC)

I've "cracked the code.":
 * Did you know that... in casting Spider-Man for the Marvel Cinematic Universe, directors the Russo brothers pushed to cast Tom Holland (an actor closer to the age of Peter Parker) to differentiate from previous portrayals?
 * Though, bit wordy and obvious. — SirDot (talk) 18:22, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Works for now, but we have time to keep looking. If we can't find anything better, we can just use this. -- Zoo (talk) 18:24, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * , see Template:Did you know nominations/Peter Parker (Marvel Cinematic Universe). Went for suit DYKs since couldn't find anything else, plus that worked with Green Goblin. Put a special date request for August 10. — SirDot (talk) 18:53, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Looks good.
 * Decided to go with expansion as the DYK reason instead of waiting for GA so you could hopefully get it featured on August 10? -- Zoo (talk) 19:11, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * Yeah. I contacted Adam and I believe he's going to review it soon; 2 days left until August starts, unsure if actually expanded 5x in prose. I was working on getting the comic Spider-Man page to FA and it being featured on the main page on August 10 (Spider-Man Day/MCU Peter's birthday) but it's a lot of work so instead I'm working on it in smaller and bigger pieces in a year timeframe for August 10, 2023. I like how a DYK for one of the unique interpretations of Spider-Man will be featured on the 60th anniversary of Spider-Man's conception. — SirDot (talk) 19:16, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * If we could somehow incorporate this into the article, it could make a fun DYK. -- Zoo (talk) 22:36, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * That's a fun fact but I don't know in which section to include it. Casting maybe? — SirDot (talk) 23:28, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * That or make a new subsection in casting for behind the scenes stuff like that. I don't know. -- Zoo (talk) 23:30, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * A small sentence at the end of Casting should work but mostly for the DYK. — SirDot (talk) 23:33, 30 July 2022 (UTC)
 * I added it in. Feel free to change it up how you see fit. -- Zoo (talk) 00:24, 31 July 2022 (UTC)

A few comments I have: InfiniteNexus (talk) 23:41, 29 July 2022 (UTC)
 * The WP:DYKCHECK script can be used to check DYK eligibility.
 * Hooks have a 200-character limit, beginning with the word "that". See WP:DYKHOOK.
 * The content of the hook must be found in the article, and the reference must be at the end of that sentence in the article. This is detailed at WP:DYKCRIT.
 * If you renominate the article and it is approved, add the hook to WP:MCU/DYK after it appears on the Main Page. Also add yes to the WikiProject tags to add the article to Category:Marvel Cinematic Universe Did you know articles, which is used for the automatic counter at WP:MCU.

The article Peter Parker (Marvel Cinematic Universe) you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold. The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needing to be addressed. If these are fixed within 7 days, the article will pass; otherwise it may fail. See Talk:Peter Parker (Marvel Cinematic Universe) for issues which need to be addressed.

 * Hi SirDot, just a reminder on this, which has been on hold for a couple of months now. Sounds like it was only minor issues remaining! CMD (talk) 01:14, 22 October 2022 (UTC)
 * Sorry for the late response, I just saw this. I can't do anything until at least mid November. Temporary fail? — SirDot (talk) 14:29, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
 * If you are happy to work on it in your own time, then I can close it as not passed for now and you can renominate when ready (from what I gather you want this to set a good standard for MCU characters, so no added pressure there!). If you want to use the current GA page to keep track of fixes from the detailed comments given, in my experience it is nice to ask the reviewer if that is okay. Best, CMD (talk) 14:34, 23 October 2022 (UTC)
