Be Cool, Scooby-Doo!

[edit]

Moved to mainspace by 23W (talk). Self nominated at 20:10, 29 July 2014 (UTC).

  • Long enough, new enough, "QP, QP-Q!!" done. The wording of the plot section is too close to the source, and I'm not convinced that in an article this short that you need to duplicate details in the lead and main body (removing that duplication would, of course, make it too short to qualify for DYK, so there's a dilemma for you. Whatchagonnado?) Belle (talk) 12:45, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
    • Rephrased the plot section; eh, the body of the article is sure to be in flux as new information about the series comes out, so for as disproportionate as the lead may appear now, it probably won't hurt in the long run. 23W 19:40, 31 July 2014 (UTC)
      There's nothing more to add at the moment? There are only a couple of lines separating identical content. Belle (talk) 00:35, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
  • To the body or the lead? Info is pretty sparse at the moment (I added another sentence), but there's just enough to say about it besides "it was announced" to set it apart from WP:TOOSOON, and to merge it into Scooby-Doo would put undue weight. 23W 01:08, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
Somebody has deleted most of the duplicated content and the additions mean it is still above the lower size limit. Rest of the review above. I prefer the ALT1 hook as it doesn't repeat "design", but either is fine. Ready to ro! (that's not a typo, I'm doing a Scooby Doo voice; it is hilarious) Belle (talk) 14:25, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
Rank you for that, Belle. Cbl62 (talk) 15:50, 1 August 2014 (UTC)
