GA review (see here for what the criteria are, and here for what they are not)

1. It is reasonably well written.

   a (prose, spelling, and grammar): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):

• Gyatso is a personal name. There is no need to put Monk before Gyatso after the first occurrence.
• Book Two: Earth → If we are talking about a book, why is the second season, in the text instead of second book? Ditto following sections.
• Link in the Lead to Air Nomads loops back to this article.

1. It is factually accurate and verifiable.

   a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR): d (copyvio and plagiarism):

1. It is broad in its coverage.

   a (major aspects): b (focused):

• Lead addresses different formats: trading cards, video games, T-shirts, web comics and the live-action film The Last Airbender
• Avatar: The Last Airbender gives a succinct intrduction;
• Book One: Water develops plot;
• Book Two: Earth addresses Earthbending and acquiring the Avatar state via the chakras
• Book Three: Fire addresses learning Firebending;
• Graphic Novel Trilogies - overview of comic plots;
• The Legend of Korra: reincarnation as Korra;
• Book One: Air - the education of the young Korra;
• Book Two: Spirits - about Tenzin and Korra losing spirit contact;
• Book Three: Change - Korra seeking spirit contact and guidance;
• Games: expands the references to games in the Lead;
• Films: the film comic and the film;
• Creation and conception: backstory to plot development;
• Personality and characteristics: formation of character, diet and behaviour;
• Bending the elements: Aang is capable of bending all four elements (air, water, earth and fire)
• Some overlinking follows: living memory, Tenzin, metallurgy, nature, cultural heritage, confiscated or destroyed, material world, spirit world.
• The Avatar State: the link to Avatar State in this section loops back to this section; should be removed.
• Critical reception section has Expand section tag

1. It follows the neutral point of view policy.

   Fair representation without bias:

• The article presents neutral point of view

1. It is stable.

   No edit wars, etc.:

• Page created 23 May 2005;
• Page has 6,038 edits by 2,373 editors
• Majority of page edits in 2007;
• Page has 191 watchers;
• Wikidata is most comprehensive;
• 112 bot edits on the page which ClueBot NG has the largest count. Page is subject to vandalism.
• 90 day pageviews = 67,740 with a daily average of 744 views.

1. It is illustrated by images and other media, where possible and appropriate.

   a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):

• File:Avatar Aang.png = illustration of a character or characters in a comic book = fair use under United States copyright law.
• File:Legend of Korra Aang.png = illustration of a character or characters in a comic book = fair use under United States copyright law.
• File:Avatar reincarnations.png = illustration of a character or characters in a comic book = fair use under United States copyright law.
• Images appropriately tagged; fair use rationale appropriate.

1. Overall:

• A number of minor issues noted, links that loop, overlinking.
• Article provides both foundation and exegesis of the Chinese and Buddhist (including Tibetan) influence and disciplines acquired and practiced by the principal character Aang.
• There is coverage of other media with links to main articles (comics, video games and the like)
• The article has minor excursus into plots but these are managed well.
• With some attention to the minor issues raised above the article remains at Good Article status. --Whiteguru (talk) 07:31, 30 November 2021 (UTC)
