Reviewed as satisfactory (or better) edit
These articles have all been assessed as satisfactorily meeting each of the criteria below, although that is not to say that the article is perfect, very good or even good. Just that these points have been addressed.
| # | Article section | Description | Reference |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | Opening sentence | Shows bolded name, date of birth/death delinked, @ndash; between dates with a space either side, and common words such as "actor", "actress", "singer", "American" delinked | WP:MOSNUM WP:OVERLINK WP:NAMES |
| Briefly explains the person's notability without excessive detail or POV. "Excessive detail or POV" includes, but is not restricted to "Award-winning" ... | WP:NAMES | ||
| 2 | Lead section | Provides a brief summary of article, if necessary, depending on length and depth of article. May discuss notable achievements/awards, but with context and without undue emphasis. "Award-winning" ... is useless. "Won X award for X reason" is more useful. | WP:LEAD WP:NPOV WP:UNDUE |
| 3 | Infobox | Free image preferred, only free image allowed for living person. Free image cropped to most useful size for aesthetics and usefulness. Unfree images supported by fair use rationale. Generic image placeholder no longer in use. | Template:Infobox actor WP:NONFREE Wikipedia:Centralized discussion/Image placeholders |
| Does not contain flag icon, is formatted with birth date/death date age, or age at death, birth place and death place. Any other fields from template as required. Dates and common words to be delinked. Check that some common U.S. cities do not lead to a redirect. Examples Los Angeles, California rather than Los Angeles, California. Other examples : Chicago, New York City, Miami, New Orleans |
Template:Infobox actor WP:FLAG WP:MOSNUM WP:OVERLINK | ||
| 4 | Entire article | Contains no potentially contentious information especially in relation to living people, remembering that the living person may not necessarily be the subject of the article. Must be relevant and must be cited or must be removed. | WP:BLP |
| Headers are appropriate, not too many, not too few, depending on length of article. Upper case for first letter of first word only, except for proper nouns. "Biography" header removed or renamed as to use such a header in a biographical article, is quite frankly, insane. |
|||
| Has been subjected to at least a basic copyedit for spelling, grammar, NPOV, sources and any other edits that may be determined necessary. Tagged as necessary | WP:NPOV WP:RS WP:RECENTISM {{nofootnotes|date=Month Year}} {{norefs|date=Month Year}} {{refimprove|date=Month Year}} | ||
| 5 | Supplementary fields and links | link to IMDb, IBDB, Find a Grave as necessary, can abbreviate template to {{imdb|123456}}, {{ibdb|123456}}, {{findagrave|123456}} etc | WP:EL |
| Add persondata, if already there check for templates or overlinking | WP:PERSON | ||
| WP:DEFAULTSORT | |||
| Stub tag to be added or removed as required | {{US-film-actor-1900s-stub}} {{Canada-film-actor-stub}} {{UK-film-actor-stub}} |
