Hi! This is my first GA review, so I hope I do well. I just wanna help with the process!

1. Is there anything you could include about Logan and Erik, like maybe a quote about either character's personality? They feel a bit naked compared to others.

• • Added bits on both.

2. Also, this is a nitpick, but I feel that Henry should rank above Storm since he's a major part of the main plot of the film, whereas Ororo is limited to the future segments.

• • That's a good point... the problem is that it's going by the credits order (which also leads to Rogue's glorified cameo billed higher than other actors).

3. Most sentences put commas and periods after the quotation marks, but some put them inside.

• • Went to check, there was a halfway split between ." and ".. But put all periods outside the quotes, just in case.

4. Could more info be added to the section about Apocalypse?

• • Added some stuff. igordebraga ≠ 17:02, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

Honestly, none of these are enough to say "nah" to. Once I check the citations I'll be happy to pass it! @Rob talk 10:20, 2 August 2017 (UTC)

@Igordebraga: So hi, I was trying to check the references, but I saw that the External links tool in the GA toolbox is down. Is there an alternative? @Rob talk 09:31, 3 August 2017 (UTC)

Nevermind, I figured it out. I fixed a couple citations, but I noticed at least one (TCM) had user contributions. Can you ensure that any sources used are not using potential user contributions? Also, I did the linkcheck, and found that a number of links are dead. Can you replace them and/or get an archive for them if possible? And can you make sure that none of the other any non-trivial link problems listed there? Once I confirm that we got it all done, I'd be happy to approve. It was enjoyable to read and it was well written. — Preceding unsigned comment added by RobBertholf (talk • contribs) 23:07, 4 August 2017 (UTC)

Removed TCM, fixed the Cinemascore dead link. Any more refs you object? igordebraga ≠ 18:18, 5 August 2017 (UTC)

Nope! Everything seems a-okay now. Congratulations! @Rob talk 03:33, 6 August 2017 (UTC)
