Thanks for the review. I've never needed to add citations for the types of facts for which you tagged—what part of 2b are you referencing? Also mid-sentence refs

First one ("Bankoff considered...") and second ("They sought to set their content apart...") are opinions and
WP:LIKELY, and the last one is also a major fact. Since LIKELY is subjective, I'm sure you don't mind adding those inlines. Of course, mid sentences refs are fine...personally, I just do it for cosmetic reasons or when I feel it interrupts the flow (so don't worry, nothing to do with this review).

I added the citations for argument's sake, but I disagree with your interpretation of the criteria czar

I know that you mentioned in your edit summary that you have more review notes to come. Would you mind leaving the review open until the end of the month? I'll be out of town for the next week and moving the week after that, so I will disappear for a while if I'm doing it right. czar

Maybe I was being too strict with 2b. If this comes up again in future, I'll consult with my GA mentor. Anyway, now everything is fine, all that remains is two criteria and that I'll check later today. I think if all goes well, the review will get over within 24 hours since this is a short article and you've done a good job, there's probably hardly anything left to be done from your side. But even otherwise, it's fine....I'll keep it open until you notify me here. -Ugog Nizdast (talk) 09:55, 18 August 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, it seemed silly to keep this review pending for a month just for that tiny comment. This article passes, good job.
Outside this review, I have a question. What's the basis of adding the names
Rock, Paper, Shotgun, italics is only for magazines/journals/newspapers. So should Polygon be written like this? -Ugog Nizdast (talk) 12:17, 25 August 2014 (UTC)[reply
