This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
Is it well written?
A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
In the First horror titles section and any part of the article, remove the term "popular", since its a peacock term, per
here. In the Decline section, "In September, 1954, The Comics Magazine Association of America and its Comics Code Authority was formed" ---> "In September 1954, the Comics Magazine Association of America and its Comics Code Authority was formed".
Throughout the article, link "sadism", "Weird Science", "Tales from the Crypt", and "Matt Baker" to their correspondence articles. In the lead and in the Decline section, it would be best if "Comics Magazine Association of America" and "Comics Code Authority" was linked once, per
here. Also, add "(CMAA)" and "(CCA)" after "Comics Magazine Association of America" and "Comics Code Authority". In the First horror titles section, it might be best to add a link to "GIs", I mean I know what it is, how 'bout your reader. Same section, "In the fall of 1948", with seasons differing in different parts of the world, a different wording than autumn or fall should be picked, per
here. In the EC Comics, wouldn't hurt to add a link to "DC", for your reader. Same section, "Sci fi" ---> "Science fiction". In the Seduction of the Innocent section, "Batman –Robin" ---> "Batman–Robin". Dates need to be unlinked, per
here.
A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with
the layout style guideline:
In the Backlash section, "John Mason Brown of the Saturday Review of Literature described comics as the "marijuana of the nursery; the bane of the bassinet; the horror of the house; the curse of kids, and a threat to the future", the source should be mentioned after the quote has concluded, per
here and
here.
B.
Reliable sources are
cited inline. All content that
could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):
It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
In the lead, this ---> "A warped sense of poetic justice colors many tales and twist endings are a hallmark of the genre", sounds like POV. In the Senate Subcommittee on Juvenile Delinquency section, "When Gaines matter-of-factly contended that he sold only comic books of good taste", POV.
