Robert Downey, Jr. filmography
This peer review discussion has been closed. I've listed this article for peer review because I think it is a good representation of Downey's filmography with good referencing.

Comments from SNUGGUMS
Looks pretty good so far.....


 * Lead
 * Seems a bit repetitive with the use of "In *year*, he starred"..... switch it up and use "Downey" for some instances, i.e. try things like "Downey was cast as Tony Stark / Iron Man in the 2008 Marvel Studios film Iron Man". I like that better, thank you :)

 * Film
 * It really isn't needed to say "credited as Robert Downey" when really that's his name (suffix not withstanding)
 * I would say to include his role for "Deadwait", but can't seem to find anything on it myself
 * Include any major awards/nominations his roles received within "notes", such as Golden Globes
 * There is his separate awards page for that though...? LADY LOTUS • TALK 20:12, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I originally thought it could be useful since the awards had been mentioned in the lead, but now feel it's fine to just mention in lead which roles won him what nominations/awards.  Snuggums ( talk  /  edits ) 05:14, 12 September 2014 (UTC)


 * See also
 * This section doesn't really belong, and neither does the link to his awards/nominations
 * Is there any reason why? I figured it would since it's a separate page from his main one, it's the point of a lot of editors on why they wanted the templates for the boxes deleted that had the main page, awards and filmography was because there was a See Also section for it.
 * It is indeed a separate page, but I haven't seen any FL filmographies use it  Snuggums ( talk  /  edits ) 05:14, 12 September 2014 (UTC)


 * References
 * FN9: Link Rotten Tomatoes
 * FN17: Link The New York Times
 * FN18: Link Entertainment Weekly
 * FN29: "The Telegraph" should read The Daily Telegraph and be linked
 * FN31: Link Los Angeles Times, which does not have "The" in its title
 * FN's 38–40: reliable?
 * FN42: unreliable
 * FN47: link Variety (magazine)
 * FN62: unlink Entertainment Weekly


 * External links
 * (Just a thought) it might be helpful to have Downey's website and perhaps his Rotten Tomatoes profile as EL's
 * Does Downey have an official website that I'm just not finding? lol, I'll get his Rotten after LADY LOTUS • TALK 20:12, 11 September 2014 (UTC)
 * Rotten Tomatoes was easy to get :P, but from what I could find, it looks like the only websites on him are fansites  Snuggums ( talk  /  edits ) 05:14, 12 September 2014 (UTC)

This is definitely on its way to becoming FL :)  Snuggums ( talk  /  edits ) 19:36, 11 September 2014 (UTC)

Comments from Cowlibob
Mainly ref check from me.
 * IMDb says he was on 25 episodes of Ally McBeal and include time he was on the show as 2000-02
 * Mussolini: The Untold story TV miniseries is included on IMDb and it also lists him as exec producer on The Judge check both of these and add.
 * Screen Crush, Dandy Chick, Screen Rush, Row 3, Cinema Blend, Split Sider reliable? If not, consider alternatives. Cowlibob (talk) 11:21, 13 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I consider Cinema Blend, Split Sider and Screen Crush reliable, but I'll replace the others, so consider it done :) LADY LOTUS • TALK 12:45, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

Comments from SchroCat
Hi Lady, All looks good here, with just a couple of comments from me. I've tweaked the prose a tiny bit to make it flow a little better, but please feel free to revert if you don't like it. (A couple of other bits added since the reversion tothe previous (and well-sourced) version)

Film
 * It's more normal to sort on the surnames of characters, I think I did have the surnames sorted until MisterMorton removed it....but it's back now LADY LOTUS • TALK 12:26, 15 September 2014 (UTC)
 * I hate the use of the N/A template. Looking at the table as a whole, my attention is drawn straight to it with the cell a different colour and the text centred. It is also unclear what N/A means here. Not available? Not applicable? A left-aligned endash will suffice, and won't distract readers.
 * It's a thought to centralise the refs - I'll leave that entirely to your personal preference (but ditto for the other tables as well)
 * Comment: I noticed that MisterMorton removed the reference column along with ALL the sorts in the names and titles column and the "row" and "col". I undid that edit but wondering why he considered it "cleanup" by removing all of that? LADY LOTUS • TALK 12:26, 15 September 2014 (UTC)

Video games
 * As it's a one-item list, it shouldn't be sortable
