Hey, I'm going to be reviewing this article. Expect comments by the end of the week. Some Dude From North Carolina (talk) 21:34, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Hello again. I should be able to respond in reasonably time. Soaper1234 - talk 22:32, 18 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

@Some Dude From North Carolina: Due to some unforeseen computer issues, I've not been able to respond as quickly as I would have liked. However, I'll try to respond in the next couple of days. I also have a couple bits of information to add to the article, as well as the recommendations below. Soaper1234 - talk 22:46, 20 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Infobox and lead

• Actual birthdate seems like a requirement for GA.
  • Done some digging and found it. Soaper1234 - talk 12:25, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• Add commas after "dancer" and Ostrich Boys.
  •  Done Soaper1234 - talk 12:25, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
• "began" → "begun"
  •  Done Soaper1234 - talk 12:25, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Early life

• "graduated from in 2008"
  •  Done Soaper1234 - talk 12:25, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Career

• Remove the comma after "Pet Shop Boys dancers".
  •  Done Soaper1234 - talk 12:25, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Filmography

• Knowing each role also feels like a requirement.
  • Is this in response to the Copperfield role? If so, it can be removed. Soaper1234 - talk 12:25, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Awards and nominations

• Since there's only one award I would remove the "Work" column, at least for now.
  •  Done Soaper1234 - talk 12:25, 21 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

References

• Archive all archivable sources (either manually or with this tool).
