Work has been done on the article, so I'll extend the hold for another seven days to allow the lead to be developed with more information from the Production section. SilkTork ✔Tea time 13:18, 30 December 2011 (UTC)Reply

  • To meet GA criteria 1(b), which relates to specific manual of style guidelines, the article needs to comply with the advice in WP:LEAD. That is, in addition to being an introduction, the lead needs to be an adequate overview of the whole of the article. As a rough guide, each major section in the article should be represented with an appropriate summary in the lead. Also, the article should provide further details on all the things mentioned in the lead. And, the first few sentences should mention the most notable features of the article's subject - the essential facts that every reader should know.

Hold

edit

I've done some work on the lad, but I have included too much plot, and not enough production. The plot paragraph should be trimmed back, and more production details included. Extend hold for seven days (to 11 Jan) to allow this to be done. SilkTork ✔Tea time 10:55, 4 January 2012 (UTC)Reply

I have finished off the work. There really wasn't much to do. Passed. SilkTork ✔Tea time 11:32, 10 January 2012 (UTC)Reply
