I've been reading X-Men comics since I was a kid (Grant Morrison's New X-Men). It'll be my pleasure to pick this one up. Review forthcoming (1-2 days). — ImaginesTigers (talk∙contribs) 21:19, 8 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Hello!

Article is judiciously supported with a range of appropriate sources. I have few issues to raise regarding 1(a), which is about structure and organisation. I'll present my feedback as a series of bullet points.

Reviewer: Of the 316-word 2-paragraph lead, almost 40% is plot. What would you say to splitting up the lead into, say, 3 paragraphs and only briefly summarising the plot?

Nominator: I've rearranged the lead a little, trimming the plot summary.

Reviewer: Including all of the Genesis citations feels like a bit much. If you think it's valuable to keep them all, what about bundling them up in footnotes? Would it be ridiculous to provide the text of the passages he's manipulating?

Nominator: I was thinking the same thing. A footnote is a good idea, I've added an efn.

Reviewer: Could we include when Claremont said it best captured X-Men? This isn't in breach, but I think it's odd to start with Claremont here. Would you consider starting with a more generic topic sentence? It feels odd and ageless, when Claremont is anything but ageless.

Nominator: The 2014 source says "a recent interview", so I added "decades later". I've also rearranged the paragraphs of this section and moved Claremont's statement to the end of its paragraph.

That's about all I can see, and that is pretty rare for me. Great work and looking forward to your responses. — ImaginesTigers (talk∙contribs) 22:17, 14 February 2025 (UTC)[reply]
