Just some tweaks, mostly to the choppy prose style. 7-day hold to An anonymous username, not my real name. Ping me when changes have been made. Sammi Brie (she/her • t • c) 06:29, 11 January 2023 (UTC)Reply

• Your style has a lot of short paragraphs and choppy sentences. Some increased variety of sentences and length of paragraphs would go a long way to improving your prose.

  Agreed; my editing style has improved much since then. I've cut down on excessive paragraphs.

Earwig catches Apple TV using our lead section for their actor profile, but there are no substantial concerns beyond that.

Is there a way to replace reference 8 (IMDB) for the cancellation of Point Pleasant? Certainly there is some media coverage of its cancellation that is more reliable. Or at least that he was in the series.

• I found another source.

Five sources were selected for spot checks. To replace #5, I spot checked another source:

• 4: Someone else won Manhunt.  Y
• 5: Unsure what I'm looking for on this Rotten Tomatoes page.

  This was to verify the appearance of another celebrity; it no longer serves any puspose, so I removed it.

• 7: This source doesn't mention Lanter, though it does mention the quick cancellation,  Y
• 14: Appearance of Disaster Movie at #14 on the 50 Worst Movies list.  Y
• 26: UPI piece on Matt Lanter's appearance in Timeless including mention of both its cancellations.  Y
• 30: article on starwars.com mentions Lanter's roles. I'd accept this. Do add the author information.  Y

• Archive references with IABot (it's back!).
•   Done
• There are two Creative Commons-licensed images. Add alt text.
