I have recently re-written this article in its entirety and hope to take it to FAC in due time. It's currently at GAC and any comments would be appreciated. Thanks, M3tal H3ad (talk) 11:57, 9 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

[edit]

"Over 3000 people were auditioned for roles in the United Kingdom, although many were rejected." - Do you mean that the 3000 people were UK residents, or that auditions were held in the UK and actors of whichever nationality auditioned in that country?

UK residents, thanks for spotting that out. How are you these days? :] M3tal H3ad (talk) 04:32, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ruhrfisch comments: I wanted to comment as this had not received much feedback. I read the article and was quite impressed, but here are a few suggestions for improvement. I like the current lead, but according to WP:LEAD it should be four paragraphs (for the length of the article). My rule of thumb is that if it is a section or subsection in the article, it should at least be mentioned in the lead. I also noticed there are a number of units which are given as one system only (feet, tonnes) and should really be in both metric and english untis per the MOS. My last question concerns the references - if you are going for FAC (and I think it is quite close as it is), then some of the references do not seem to meet the requirements of WP:CITE. Specifically there are a series of refs which are just a cryptic title: i.e. Ref 7 "57 Years Later - Continuing the story", also refs 12 - 15 and 18. My guess is that these are referring to chapters in a DVD on the making of the film, but that needs to be made much more explicit. Hope this helps - I don't have much more to say becasue I think it is very good already, Ruhrfisch ><>°° 14:20, 18 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
