Outcome[edit]

  • These are my first comments. I will decide if I will pass it or not on how the work progresses. Best, Cartoon network freak (talk) 19:43, 5 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
    • I sadly have to fail this. A lot of links are not correctly formatted, there's original research and links are dead. You also are not a significant contributor to the page, so you haven't checked it against the GA criteria before the nomination. Please don't feel discouraged, but I feel like these are too many issues to solve in 7 days. Best, Cartoon network freak (talk) 06:39, 6 September 2017 (UTC)[reply]
