Hello! I'll be taking a look at this article for the January 2022 GAN backlog drive. If you haven't already signed up, please feel free to join in! Although QPQ is not required, if you're feeling generous, I also have a list of GA nominations of my own right here.

Infobox and lede[edit]

  • Considering the "artwork" label already disambiguates this from other things titled "Comedian", I think the hatnote can be removed
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 00:48, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Background and description[edit]

  • Me being very nitpicky: Cattelan's full name and his Italian nationality should be mentioned here to gel with the lede
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 00:50, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • "duct tape" should be linked and not hyphenated, in accordance with the lede and our WL
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 00:54, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Spell out the FIAC acronym
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 00:59, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Shouldn't necessarily say "the" bananas before we know (excluding the lede) that the piece involves bananas
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 15:54, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Actually, when you read it over, nowhere her does it outright say that the piece is a banana duct-taped to the wall, only implied
 Done That has been added. --Kbabej (talk) 16:14, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Reception[edit]

  • I noticed "Comedian" is not italicized in the Charney quote; I assume it also is not in the book?
 Done That is correct, it is not italicized in the book. --Kbabej (talk) 15:52, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • The resemblance to Warhol looks as if it belongs more in the background and description section, since it's less a value judgment and more an observation
 Done That has been moved. --Kbabej (talk) 15:56, 11 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Purchases[edit]

  • "swap" → "trade"
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 17:23, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Intervention[edit]

  • "ate the piece, calling the intervention Hungry Artist." → "ate the piece in an intervention he called Hungry Artist."
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 17:23, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Interpretations[edit]

  • Good
Great! --Kbabej (talk) 17:23, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Removal[edit]

  • The first sentence runs a little long and can probably be split into two
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 17:23, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

References[edit]

  • Inconsistent use of "ArtNet" vs. "Art Net" vs. "Artnet News" throughout
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 17:45, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Similarly inconsistent use of "The Art Newspaper" vs. "The Art Newspaper" vs "www.theartnewspaper.com"
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 19:58, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • USA Today should be in the work parameter, not publisher
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 19:38, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • Same with Page Six, Miami Herald, GQ, Times of Israel, Eater, Vogue, and Rolling Stone
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 19:38, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]
  • [21] and [29] are missing a work/publisher
 Done --Kbabej (talk) 19:38, 13 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

General comments[edit]

  • Images are properly licensed and relevant
  • No stability concerns in the revision history
  • Earwig score looks a little high, but the "source" looks like backwards vio
