GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


It may take three days for me to complete my initial review (I am unable to edit on weekends). I will note/pass items as I go along. You don't need to wait for me to finish to begin addressing them. Most of my comments are open for discussion, so feel free to question anything. Once complete, I will be claiming points for this review in the 2017 WikiCup.

  1. Is it well written?
    A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:  
    Premise
    "a land full of automobiles" I think sentient (or a synonym) should be added in front of automobiles for clarity.
    I think Cycle World should be linked in the prose.
    Characters
    Why is this section arranged by voice actor instead of character? I think it would be more effective in the opposite order. As is, the protagonist and antagonist are currently lumped into the same bullet point.
    Done – I did some "flip-flopping" and separated the protagonist and antagonist. Carbrera (talk) 20:47, 9 June 2017 (UTC).Reply
    Per WP:PROTAGONIST, Wheelie should be described as the lead or star, not the protagonist.
    Done – I used "lead" instead of "protagonist". Carbrera (talk) 20:47, 9 June 2017 (UTC).Reply
    Production
    "Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch premiered nearly one year after the debut of Speed Buggy in 1973" - suggest "Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch premiered in 1973, nearly one year after the debut of Speed Buggy, another Hanna-Barbera cartoon with similar themes.
    Done – Took your suggestion. Carbrera (talk) 20:47, 9 June 2017 (UTC).Reply
    I suggest relocating the Broadcast subsection from reception to production and locating it between the current paragraphs. This is in line with FA article Ed, Edd n Eddy and clarifies that it was still being aired when Bryne's comic was commissioned.
    Done – Relocated the section and added appropriate sub-titles. Carbrera (talk) 20:47, 9 June 2017 (UTC).Reply
    " his first "full issue" series of comic books" - what does "full issue" mean? That he did art for the full issue? That he did pencils and inks? Pencils, inks, and scripting?
    Done – Removed "full issue" because I believe the sentence (as it is) gives the same effect. Carbrera (talk) 20:47, 9 June 2017 (UTC).Reply
    I think it's worth mentioning the comics were published by Charlton Comics.
    Done – Added. Carbrera (talk) 20:47, 9 June 2017 (UTC).Reply
    "According to Byrne himself, he also felt... " - I think "Byrne also said he felt..." reads more smoothly.
    Done – Took your suggestion. Carbrera (talk) 20:47, 9 June 2017 (UTC).Reply
