Escape from Tomorrow[edit]
- ... that Escape from Tomorrow was covertly filmed on location at Disneyland and Walt Disney World without Disney's permission or knowledge, using iPhones to store scripts and schedules and record sound?

Article is 10846 characters long and newly created January 21; well cited; was a stub but I've re-assessed to start class; neutral and well written; hook is catchy and referenced in para #6 under 'Production' heading. I have a couple of questions - forgive me if I'm showing my ignorance on this subject! - when I did a search, it looks as if the wording in the lead is the same as this 'daily omnivore' site [1] ?
- You need to do more than just search on text. I wrote that introduction early in the morning US EST; the daily omnivore post is timestamped 4:25 p.m. that afternoon—over 12 hours later. And it has a big honking quote on it. It looks to me like it was scraped from us. Daniel Case (talk) 15:31, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- I'm sorry, I didn't mean to offend; I really did fully suspect it had been copied from your text but was just double checking. I'm very, very new to reviewing DYKs and I am trying to avoid making errors. Again I wholeheartedly apologise for my mistake. That was the only query I had on what I thought was an exceptional article. I will now mark it with a 'good to go tick'. SagaciousPhil - Chat 15:39, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
- Sorry I got cranky about it; I had less time at the computer than I wanted to and couldn't devote as much time as I would have liked to responding and editing. Daniel Case (talk) 17:15, 23 January 2013 (UTC)

- I also wonder if a couple of ''very'' minor edits need to be made to the article text (I would just do them myself if I was 101% sure) - para #7 - maybe change to read 'over half a dozen rides' - that sentence does need to be changed. Insert quotation marks in reception section? Sorry if I'm being pedantic and/or tedious! SagaciousPhil - Chat 10:36, 23 January 2013 (UTC)
