Chris Redfield

  • ... that video game character Chris Redfield was accused of steroid abuse? Source: 1
    • ALT1:... that Chris Redfield is the only Resident Evil character to star in three consecutive games? Source: "You are strongly encouraged to quote the source text supporting each hook" (and [link] the source, or cite it briefly without using citation templates)
    • ALT2:... that following his Resident Evil 5 redesign, Chris Redfield's been described as one of the sexiest characters in video games? Source: 1st or 2nd

Improved to Good Article status by PanagiotisZois (talk). Self-nominated at 17:03, 28 February 2017 (UTC).

DYK review:

  • New: Recently promoted to GA status.
  • Long enough: By a mile.
  • Within policy: Article reads in a neutral way and does not give undue weight to any one aspect. An Earwig's Copyvio Detector analysis breeds 28.1% - Violation Unlikely
  • Hook format: Fine
  • Hook content: I don't like the use of the phrases "has been described" or "has been accused". You should be specific, and cite the source in the hook. E.g. ... that Engaget accused video game character Chris Redfield of steroid abuse?
  • QPQ done
  • The 4 images are either free / fair, with appropriate image summaries

Symbol question.svg Please respond to the comment I made about your hooks. To reiterate, I'm fine with any, but I think you need to add specificity because atm it's too vague and required the [by whom?] tag.--Coin945 (talk) 04:16, 1 March 2017 (UTC)
