Exactly. Leads do not need sources unless the information is only in the lead. Can we get a different reviewer or something?

Zppix is a new reviewer who has spent under ten minutes per review and clearly does not understand the GA criteria or how to apply it. I have been trying to urge restraint, and just suggested a moratorium on further reviews. If Zppix is willing to withdraw, we can put this back into the reviewing pool so another reviewer would be able to select it. As I noted on Zppix's talk page, I have never heard of a 24-hour deadline, and of course the request for lead sourcing is in direct opposition to the Wikipedia Manual of Style and that GA criterion for following
WP:LEAD.

Lordtobi: Zppix, it's fine that you're still learning, but I dunno about just passing it like that. I'd be more comfortable with having another reviewer having a look at this (and possibly at the articles Zppix previously reviewed -
Shin Megami Tensei: Devil Summoner is a nice article, but it was passed really quickly with barely any comments).--

I am going to bring this matter to
WT:GAN, and will be boldly reversing the passage: Zppix has been reviewing for two days, and I've already had to bring one article to GAR for reassessment. Unfortunately, we don't have time and Zppix has not yet learned from any of the posts I made to his or her talk page even before this review was opened.
