Overall: @Therealscorp1an: Good article. Not exactly a fan of alt0 but the other hooks are decent enough. Though, i'm not seeing where alt1 is cited in the source (also the source is youtube which is something). Nor does the source for alt2 seem to mention that over 44 cast members starred in the anniversary. Onegreatjoke (talk) 02:40, 29 September 2023 (UTC)

- @Onegreatjoke: Hi, thanks for reviewing this! The sources were a long shot because the source only covers Matt Preston's appearance. The over 44 cast members is actually an amalgamation of a bunch of primary sources (the episodes themselves), which wouldn't actually cover all the cast members because a lot of the guest characters (like the Driver or Constable Ian McKay – see the article) were never going to be covered in media sources since, well, they're guest characters. These characters are mentioned in the article, but the episodes themselves serve as the reference. So, yeah, I was a bit iffy on that source, but it served well for Matt Preston and the episodes themselves serve as sources for other 43 cast members. Is there any way we could get around this or anything? Thanks a heap. - Therealscorp1an (talk) 03:35, 29 September 2023 (UTC)
- @Therealscorp1an: That's definitely interesting of a source choice. I'm not exactly sure if how good of a source that is, especially with the other youtube sources (still not exactly sure how that youtube source fits with alt1 to be honest). It might be good enough to approve though it depends. Onegreatjoke (talk) 18:12, 6 October 2023 (UTC)
- @Therealscorp1an: were you able to resolve Onegreatjoke's sourcing concerns? Z1720 (talk) 17:29, 29 October 2023 (UTC)
- Hi. I'm so sorry for the late response. No, I wasn't. But perhaps this reference might still work? The issue is, the information in this DYK is not information from one particular source. The information in this DYK is an amalgamation of information found in the article, supported by numerous sources. - Therealscorp1an (talk) 22:24, 8 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: Does the above satisfy your concerns? If not, what needs to happen to get this hook approved? Z1720 (talk) 01:28, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
Sure. Onegreatjoke (talk) 03:46, 25 November 2023 (UTC)
- @Onegreatjoke: So does this mean it will be on DYK? - Therealscorp1an (talk) 06:21, 26 November 2023 (UTC)

- @AirshipJungleman29: What about the references makes it WP:UNDUE? - Therealscorp1an (talk) 21:27, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
- Their very existence. If the information they contained was DUE, it would be cited in reliable sources. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 21:53, 6 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Therealscorp1an: Are you willing to look for replacements for the YouTube sources? @AirshipJungleman29: are you willing to let this appear on the Main Page as-is, or should it be rejected? Z1720 (talk) 18:43, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
- This nomination has caused me more grief, than joy, and I do not see any other way to get around the YouTube reference, so I assume it is up to User:AirshipJungleman29 to decide now. - Therealscorp1an (talk) 22:37, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
- As a promoter, I would not put this article in a queue. If you agree, Z1720, this nomination should be rejected; if not, I will disengage and leave it up to you and others. These issues should really have been addressed in the GA review. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 23:05, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Therealscorp1an and AirshipJungleman29: I am going to open a GAR of this article, so that other editors can weigh in with their concerns. If other editors are not concerned with the use of the YouTube videos and allow this to retain its GA status, then I have no problems with running this at DYK. If the article does not conform to GA status, then the article won't be eligible for DYK. Z1720 (talk) 23:18, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
- @Z1720 and AirshipJungleman29: I am content with canceling this DYK now. - Therealscorp1an (talk) 23:21, 23 December 2023 (UTC)
