Article review
It has been a while since this article has been reviewed, so I took a look and noticed the following:
- There are lots of uncited statements, including entire paragraphs
- Unreliable sources are used in the article, such as TheStreet.com and Sportskeeda. These should be replaced or the text it is verifying removed
- The lead does not summarise all major aspects of this article
- At almost 10,000 words, this article is WP:TOOBIG, and will get bigger if the lead is expanded. Information should be summarised more effectively or spun out into other articles.
Should this article go to WP:GAR? Z1720 (talk) 19:55, 4 November 2025 (UTC)

There are lots of uncited statements, including entire paragraphs. Unreliable sources are used in the article, such as TheStreet.com and Sportskeeda. These should be replaced or the text it is verifying removed. The lead does not summarise all major aspects of this article. At almost 10,000 words, this article is quite large and will get bigger if the lead is expanded. Information should be summarised more effectively or spun out into other articles.

- I'll tackle this next week. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 14:56, 30 November 2025 (UTC)
Ok, so my plan is to do the following:
- Remove unreliable sources (
Done I've removed unreliable sources that have been detected by scripts I use. I've noticed that NYP is used in the article so I'll have to check manuallyNow entirely removed) - Removed dead URLs Done
- Format references
Partly done - Add more reliable sources to backup unsourced content/remove unsourced content for which there are no reliable sources Done
- Restructure the article Done
- Summarise the article Partly done
- Expand the lede Done

- Done until video games. I'll do that section during the next few days. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 15:45, 4 December 2025 (UTC)
@Z1720: What is left to do? I can summarise the article a bit more to get it below 9,000 words. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 18:50, 7 December 2025 (UTC)
- @Vacant0: I added a citation needed template to the article. Once that is resolved, the article should be good to go! Z1720 (talk) 20:31, 7 December 2025 (UTC)
- Done. Vacant0 (talk • contribs) 22:09, 7 December 2025 (UTC)
