Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 23:08, 13 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

In the infobox, use "plainlist" instead of "<br/>" per the rules on the template. Done
Is the "|story=Gainax" parameter necessary?
A Transfer" → "A Transfer" Done
What does "7.1% rating" mean?

It means that 7.1% of Japan's televisions were tuned to Tokyo TV during the run. I took it for granted, given the percentage.

Plot

The plot is 417 words, while it should be under 400 per WP:TVPLOT. Done
Remove the comma after "poorly for Nerv".

Removed.

Production

What exactly is "a mount" within the context of the show?

Specified.

Cultural references and themes

The caption on the image should describe its significance within the article.
Also improve the non-free use rationales of the images (see MOS:TVIMAGE for help).

Hope it helps.

"awkward communication. ... Evangelion" → "awkward communication [...] Evangelion"

Fixed.

"the sixties inspire" → "the 1960s inspired" Done
Wikipedia doesn't normally use phrases like "he said" so try rewording the sentence. Done
References should be included at the end of each quote, so recite certain sources. Done
"A transfer" → "A Transfer" Done

Reception

Again, explain what "7.1% rating" means and/or refers to.
The second reference after "home video releases" is missing parts of its title. Done
"as it shows" → "as it showed" Done

Notes and references

Change the "Notes" header to "References", add a subsection titled "Citations" and make the original "References" section into a "Bibliography" subsection (example). Done
Archive all archivable sources (either manually or with this tool). Done
Optional, but it helps readers if you link websites within the "|website=" parameter. Done

Improved to Good Article status by TeenAngels1234 (talk). Self-nominated at 15:32, 18 March 2021 (UTC).[reply]

Article was made into a good article within 7 days of nomination and is at least 1,500 characters. It is neutral and cites sources with inline citations. I will have to assume good faith on print sources. I am more inclined to ALT1 as the original ALT doesn't seem to be eye-catching.lullabying (talk) 22:02, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Lullabying: Thank you. Forgive me, but for some reason this template is missing from the main DYNN page. Is there a reason? It's a problem? Sorry, but it's my second nomination and I still don't quite understand the mechanism.--TeenAngels1234 (talk) 22:15, 23 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@TeenAngels1234: After your nomination was approved, a bot moved it from the DYNN page to the "approved" page at WP:DYKNA (you should be able to see it there). There's a lot of approved hooks, but eventually a promoter will come by, double check the nomination, and move it to a DYK set so it can be scheduled to run on the Main Page. You should be all set in the meantime, just a matter of waiting. DanCherek (talk) 03:02, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Perfect. Thank you, of course.--TeenAngels1234 (talk) 12:48, 26 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
