GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


Sorry for the late review, as real-life stuff caught up with me. Here's the review.

  1. Is it well written?
    A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:  
    Is there a way to make the Reception section more concise? Per WP:WEIGHT it seems way too long compared to the rest of the article; some trimming might be necessary here. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:45, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
    B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:  
  2. Is it verifiable with no original research?
    A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:  
    B. All in-line citations are from reliable sources, including those for direct quotations, statistics, published opinion, counter-intuitive or controversial statements that are challenged or likely to be challenged, and contentious material relating to living persons—science-based articles should follow the scientific citation guidelines:  
    C. It contains no original research:  
    D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:  
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:  
    See 1a. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:45, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
    B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):  
    See 1a. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:45, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
  4. Is it neutral?
    It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:  
    Is there any Japanese discussion about her character? It's fine if there isn't any, but this needs to be clarified first. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:45, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
  5. Is it stable?
    It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:  
  6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid fair use rationales are provided for non-free content:  
    B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:  
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:  
    Nomination on hold pending responses to my questions. Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 04:45, 24 April 2018 (UTC)Reply

@Narutolovehinata5: Hello and thank you for providing the review. I trimmed the "Reception" section and made the first two paragraphs (which are the longer ones) approximately equal in size. I hope it is all right now. Regarding the Japanese discussion about Lucy's character, all I managed to find was an interview with Aya Hirano — Lucy's Japanese voice actress — written in Japanese, and I added what Hirano said about Lucy to the "Creation and conception" section.

The reception section is still a bit too long; perhaps it could be made more concise here. My suggestion is, if possible, it could be reduced to about three paragraphs (right now it's four paragraphs long). Narutolovehinata5 tccsdnew 00:05, 30 April 2018 (UTC)Reply
@Narutolovehinata5: I organised the "Reception" section in three paragraphs and tried to trim it further. Flowerpiep (talk) 23:20, 1 May 2018 (UTC)FlowerpiepReply

I'm sorry for the late reply, and I apologize if this GAN has taken so long, but I think there are no more problems with the article, and raised issues have been addressed. As such, I am happy to say that this is a pass. @Flowerpiep:, I suggest you nominate this article over at WP:DYK for the chance for it to be featured on the main page.
