As I myself have a Television GAN right now, I think it's only fair that I review someone else's. Tezero (talk) 02:22, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Note: this represents where the article stands relative to the Good Article criteria. Criteria marked are unassessed
  • Intro shouldn't name quote-level pieces of reception with their sources. Too specific, especially since the intro's more than half as long as the rest of the body text combined.
    • Removed.
  • I don't know that the side-view boxart counts as fair use; it doesn't add anything but... well, a bit of the side view, which isn't standard coverage among TV show/media release articles as far as I'm aware.
    • The box art show in the infobox is technically in the public domain, so I included the side view to possibly illustrate the product's physical dimensions as well as more of the box art. If it needs to be removed, however, I'm fine with that.
      • Well... I suppose it'd be a pain to bring back if it was later determined that it would be necessary. I won't demand it be removed, but I caution you that it may be in the future. Tezero (talk) 04:08, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
  • The article is awfully short, barring the list. Is there any additional information - perhaps DVD commentary, blog posts, or tweets - that discusses how the shows were chosen, others that were considered, or everything being put together?
    • That kind of information is rather sparse, I'm afraid. The more I research, the more I find reviews that I didn't include (A.V. Club and Wired, in specific). I could possibly elaborate that the network's official store, which once featured the set, is now defunct. Bit reaching, but it could add some context. 23W (talk) 03:58, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

  • I expanded the release section a little, and also included those two reviews I mentioned into the reception section. Sorry it's a bit sparse as far as production is concerned, but with all that's been said about it, they might as well have pulled the shows out their ass and slapped a price tag on it. 23W (talk) 04:38, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
    • Looks like you've done all you can with all that's around, and that's the most I can ask for. Nice work. Consider stopping by and reviewing Sonic X sometime if you have the chance. Tezero (talk) 04:41, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
      • Thanks! I'll definitely look at it. I'm not the best reviewer – I drafted a review once, but it went nowhere – but you gotta start somewhere. 23W (talk) 04:59, 6 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]
