  • This article is new enough and long enough. The hook facts are cited inline and either hook could be used, the article is neutral and I detected no copyright issues. A QPQ has been done. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 07:27, 28 January 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

  • "the Bounty Hunters' Guild," always a bit odd to "part link" a "formal title". I would unlink and go for linking bounty hunter at the next chance.
    • Yeah, I think you're right. Changed. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • " in a handful of episodes" curious about this as there's only been a handful of episodes of the whole show! Four episodes really is still a handful!
    • lol Changed this to say he was originally only supposed to make a brief apperance. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "ensures everyone follows" not everyone, just bounty hunters. Presumably "ensures its members follow"?
  • "so far" is a little like
    WP:CURRENTLY
    . Maybe "as of the end of the first season"?
  • What's a cantina?
  • "a big job" seems a little informal...
    • Changed to "a lucrative job". — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "who insists of meeting " ENGVAR? insists on meeting?
    • Yup, should've been "on". Fixed that. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "the Force " the should be inside the pipe.
  • Fixed. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • Lots of triple-referencing going on, per
    WP:CITEKILL
    any chance of reducing it a little?
    • I can certainly do this; will get on it tomorrow, as it's getting a bit late for me now. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "him.[20][17][21] " ref order.
  • I think you've linked "stormtroopers" in other similar articles.
    • Oops, right you are. Fixed. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • ""Chapter 8: Redemption"" you've already linked this as the season's "finale".
  • "The character is slated to return..." well Weathers has said he's definitely in it so isn't it stronger than slated?
    • Changed to "will return". — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Actor Carl Weathers said..." no need to reintroduce Weathers here.
  • Particularly as you have "Weathers has described his " in the previous sentence.
    • Oops, yeah, lol.
  • "and Carl Weathers has" no need for Carl here.
  • "2019,[45][46] According" should be a period.
  • "showrunner Jon Favreau " both overlinked. And both overlinked in the caption too.
    • Removed the wikilinks from the photo caption and the Portrayal section. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "enjoys" tense?
  • " series, and in " one too many run-ons. Split here.
  • "Weathers said ... Weathers performed... Weathers said " repetitive.
    • It's Weathers' world, my friend; we're just living in it! Lol I changed a few "Weathers" to other words to reduce the repetition. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "study the different energies the director and actors brought" feels whimsical, can this be "quoted" rather than written in Wikipedia voice?
    • I just reworded it a bit. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "particular enjoyed" +ly
  • " with "The Client", " -> "with the Client"
  • "Screen Rant ranked" overlinked.
    • Removed the link in Critical Reception. — Hunter Kahn 05:27, 30 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
  • "performance of Carl Weathers, " no need for Carl.

That's all I have so I'll put it on hold for now. The Rambling Man (Stay indoors, stay safe!!!!) 10:45, 27 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
