I'll be reviewing the article over the next few days. Below you will find the standard GAN criteria, along with a list of issues I have found. As criteria pass, a {{GAList/check|???}} or {{GAList/check|nay}} will be replaced with a {{GAList/check|aye}}. Below the criteria you'll see a list of issues I've found. Feel free to work on them at any time. I will notify you when I'm done checking over the article. At that time I'll allow the standard one week for fixes to be made.

• {{Doing}}

Here are things borrowed from other folks that GAN reviewers (or at least me) may not normally consider:

• Contractions should be changed to two words (WP:CONTRACTION)
• Check that date linking is consistent (WP:DATE)
• Watch qualifiers at the start of sentences. However, In regards to,
• Double check wikilinks that they lead to the appropriate spot (WP:LINKS)
• Ensure multiple footnotes are listed in order
• Ensure the citation style is consistent (WP:CITE#Citation style)
• Ensure correct dashes are used in the correct places/way. (WP:DASH)
• There should not be anything in the lead not mentioned in the rest of the article (WP:LEAD)
• It is recommended not to specify the size of images. The sizes should be what readers have specified in their user preferences (WP:IMGSYN)
• Text should not be sandwiched between two adjacent images (WP:IMAGELOCATION)
• All fair-use images need a fair use rationale (WP:NFCC)
• Images need succinct captions that do more than "this is what's in the image" (WP:CAPTION)
• An image caption should only end with a period if it forms a complete sentence (WP:CAPTION)
• Blogs and personal websites are not reliable sources, unless written by the subject of the article or by an expert on the subject (WP:SPS)
• Dead web references should not be removed if they cannot be replaced, but an archived version is preferred if available (WP:DEADREF)
• Inline citations belong immediately after punctuation marks (WP:CITEFOOT)
• Portal links belong in the "See also" section (WP:SEEALSO)
• "Further info" links belong at the top of sections (WP:HAT)
• Whole numbers under 10 should be spelled out as words, except when in lists, tables or infoboxes (WP:NUMERAL)
• Short, 1-2 sentence paragraphs or short sections should be merged (WP:LAYOUT)

{{collapsetop|B-Class Criteria}}

Taken from WP:BCLASS

1. The article is suitably referenced, with inline citations where necessary.

   :It has reliable sources, and any important or controversial material which is likely to be challenged is cited. The use of citation templates such as {{tlx|cite web}} is not required, but the use of tags is encouraged.

2. The article reasonably covers the topic, and does not contain obvious omissions or inaccuracies.

   :It contains a large proportion of the material necessary for an A-Class article, although some sections may need expansion, and some less important topics may be missing.

3. The article has a defined structure.

   :Content should be organized into groups of related material, including a lead section and all the sections that can reasonably be included in an article of its kind.

4. The article is reasonably well-written.

   :The prose contains no major grammatical errors and flows sensibly, but it certainly need not be "brilliant". The Manual of Style need not be followed rigorously.

5. The article contains supporting materials where appropriate.

   :Illustrations are encouraged, though not required. Diagrams and an infobox etc. should be included where they are relevant and useful to the content.

{{#ifeq:{{{B6|}}}|no||

6. The article presents its content in an appropriately accessible way.

   :It is written with as broad an audience in mind as possible. Although Wikipedia is more than just a general encyclopedia, the article should not assume unnecessary technical background and technical terms should be explained or avoided where possible.

{{collapsetop|C-Class Criteria}}

Taken from Wikipedia:Version 1.0 Editorial Team/Assessment#Grades

{{Grading scheme/row

|class = C

|Project = {{{Project|{{{topic|}}}}}}

|criteria = The article is substantial, but is still missing important content or contains a lot of irrelevant material. The article should have some references to reliable sources, but may still have significant issues or require substantial cleanup.

|detail = The article is better developed in style, structure and quality than Start-Class, but fails one or more of the criteria for B-Class. It may have some gaps or missing elements; need editing for clarity, balance or flow; or contain policy violations such as bias or original research. Articles on fictional topics are likely to be marked as C-Class if they are written from an in-universe perspective.

|reader = Useful to a casual reader, but would not provide a complete picture for even a moderately detailed study.

|suggestion = Considerable editing is needed to close gaps in content and address cleanup issues.

|specified = {{{C_example|}}}

|default = X-Men Origins: Wolverine (video game)

|oldid = 376738243

|date = August 2010
