Hello, I am Majorly, and I will be reviewing this article.

It's looking good. I'll point out a few issues before I check it against criteria:

• "The character was brought back in Wes Craven's New Nightmare by Wes Craven, who had not worked on the film series since the third film and as a director since the original film, in the form of an ancient evil entity that had taken a liking to the form of Freddy Krueger, and is now trying to enter the real world." This is a particularly long and confusing sentence. It makes it sound as if the director was an ancient evil entity, but this obviously isn't the case.

• "The silver screen is not the only place Freddy Krueger has appeared" - silver screen is described as "a type of projection screen that was popular in the early years of the motion picture industry, and is coming back into use in projecting 3-D films". Was a Nightmare on Elm Street a 3D film? It certainly wasn't around in the early years of motion pictures (19th century), so it's not a particularly appropriate link. Nightmare 6 was in 3 which Is what he was referring to, It had partial scenes in 3D. Check your

sources before scolding someone.

• The introduction to the Appearances section is unreferenced.

• "Picking up shortly after the events of The Dream Master" - why is that in italics?

• "Picking up shortly after the events of The Dream Master, Freddy’s next appearance, in A Nightmare on Elm Street 5: The Dream Child, involves him using Alice’s unborn child, Jacob (Whitby Hertford), to resurrect himself and find new victims." Too many commas.

• "was accidentally locked in a room and raped "hundreds of times" - please add a cite after this, even if it means doubling up. "Obviously wondering if the editor has even watched the series

and If not why is he making comments about the article" This was said by the nun in Nightmare 3.

For "silver screen", it says, "the term silver screen has passed into popular usage as a metonym for Hollywood and the movies.'" - That's how it is being used.

"The Dream Master" is a subtitle to A Nightmare on Elm Street 4, and thus it should be in italics.

"hundreds of times" doesn't need to be in quotations, because it's just a stated fact in the film.

The rest I'll clean up.  BIGNOLE  (Contact me) 19:08, 31 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• "It was confirmed that the character's surreal humor will be dropped in order to make him more serious than his previous appearances" - needs citing

• "Robert Englund did not reprise the role." has a citation needed tag. There's another tag further along. (this I dont agree with, Robert was never asked to play in the Nightmare remake according

to a source at myspace's official Fanclub he may play Freddy in Freddy vs Jason 2 according to Robertenglund.com ).

• "In the South Park episode Imaginationland Episode II, where he is seen with a group of evil imaginary characters and arguing with a Minotaur, each one claiming to be the evilest imaginary character of them all." This sentence does not make any sense. (how does this not make sense, they are talking about the Southpark episode Imagination land he is referred to as Freddy, we all

get this as the article is about Freddy Kruger)

Saving, just a few more things. Majorly talk 19:05, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• Please have a look at punctuation in the last paragraph. There are several long and unwieldy sentences, commas where there should be full stops etc.

• Please format your references throughout so they are consistent, and show fields such as titles, access dates, etc when appropriate.

Once these issues are fixed, I'll compare the article with the GA criteria. Majorly talk 23:04, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

No response for over a week, I've had no choice but to fail this. Please renominate it when you have fixed these issues. It should have no problem passing. Ping me on my talk page if you do, I'll be happy to review it. Majorly talk 13:15, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I've fixed several impropers in the first story, Freddy is not undead, Freddy is supposed to be a ghost, haunting his murderers by killing their teenage children. Also, Nancy did not win in the first movie, it ended with the convertible going over the teens and you see Freddy's red and green sweater colors on the convertible top and slow surreal film showing nancy doesn't realize she's trapped in Freddy's dreamworld still. this story was not continued in 3 as the first did not have a happy ending with her mother being pulled through the door, showing that nancy did not defeat Krueger which the writer incorrectly stated. Also, you need to check your sources as your information about Robert not choosing to reprise is blatantly incorrect. At RobertEnglund.com Robert states he may play Freddy again in Freddy vs. Jason 2 and Robert along with the cast, was never asked for input in the film or for a role. This can be verified by writing Robert Englund's Official Myspace Fanclub. Wes Craven also was not asked to take part in this. cheers-j—Preceding unsigned comment added by Digital3dg (talk • contribs) 20:39, 17 October 2009 (UTC)[reply]

If Freddy is a ghost, then how is he not the undead? Flyer22 (talk) 14:23, 30 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]
