Result: delist Major issues remain unaddressed. Jezhotwells (talk) 21:41, 3 July 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Prose
  • Two one-sentence paragraphs in Production section.
  • Unsourced review from Chicago Tribune in Reception.
  • It has 88% on Rotten Tomatoes. Could one of the few negative reviews be cited to give balance?
I added 2 negative reviews from top critics on the cite (from CNN and The Toronto Star). Glimmer721 talk 16:59, 2 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • "By contrast, Kung Fu Panda won 11 Annie Awards (including Best Picture) out of 16 nominations, albeit amid controversy." — What did the controversy comprise?
  • Most of the second paragraph contains info found nowhere else in the article (e.g. "Although the concept of a 'kung fu panda' has been around since at least 1993, work on the film did not begin until 2004"). Also, it doesn't elaborate: who first brought up the idea?
Sources
  • Unsourced quote from Black in "Awards" section.
  • Bare URLs in the Sequel section.
  • What makes Xbox360fanboy.com a reliable source?
  • No one is tending to the article. Some references to the sequel were still written in future tense.
  • I removed a citation to a forum post, which is in no way aceptable.
  • Offline sources need page numbers.

Overall, I found so many problems with the article that I don't think it can get a quick fix. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 19:00, 29 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

  • I've taken care of the above (marked with a strike). I've never worked on the article before, don't know if the article passed like this, or it accumulated after it was passed. There were a lot of unsourced sentences in the box office section. About the award controversy, the part is linked to Annie Award#2009 which explains the "controversy". —Mike Allen 04:06, 31 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Delist. Although I agree with TenPoundHammer's concerns cited above, Xbox360fanboy.com is not a reliable source. There are too many unsourced sentences and no issues addressed above. JJ98 (Talk / Contributions) 06:03, 16 June 2011 (UTC)[reply]
