In serious need of cleanup. Obviously not complete, under-referenced (two sections without footnotes), and no clear connection between the subject of the article and FrameGang (which pops up out of nowhere). Crisco 1492 (talk) 13:44, 16 December 2011 (UTC)
- I've cleaned up references to FrameGang, and added references to all sections.Smallman12q (talk) 13:46, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
- Getting better, but still not fully referenced (Egor releases and below it untouched), and footnotes 7 and 8 are still rather bare. Crisco 1492 (talk) 15:26, 18 December 2011 (UTC)
- I've fixed the references.Smallman12q (talk) 01:13, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- I've fixed another. Where is Designing Web Animation, to which you've cited the hook fact? Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:32, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Also, what makes Dr. Dobb reliable? Crisco 1492 (talk) 05:33, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Designing Web Animation is listed under Books. Dr. Dobb's Journal (Dr. Dobb's) is a tech website. The content on that page is reprinted from Web Techniques.Smallman12q (talk) 20:09, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Okay, Dr. Dobb's seems okay. But all you have under "Books" is Looking good online: the ultimate resource for creating effective web designs. The title is not Designing Web Animation Crisco 1492 (talk) 23:32, 20 December 2011 (UTC)
- Looking good online: the ultimate resource for creating effective web designs is listed under further reading. "Brown, Nicola; Peter Chen, David Miller, Paul Van Eyk, and William E. Weinman (1996). Designing Web Animation. Indianapolis, Ind.: New Riders Pub.. ISBN 9781562056476." is listed under books in the Notes section above references.Smallman12q (talk) 12:13, 21 December 2011 (UTC)

Okay, long and new enough. Referencing is thorough and well formatted. Paraphrasing check looks okay. AGF on offline source for the hook. Crisco 1492 (talk) 03:12, 22 December 2011 (UTC)
