Hello, I will be preforming this review. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 05:48, 6 January 2024 (UTC)

Immediate failure

1. Its pretty close to all of the criteria
2. Earwig flags various issues which I will take a look at the highest being a 93.5% overlap. I'll take a further look though

Okay of the seven sources with over 40% overlap 5 of the 6 are quotes. Another thing is the title gets flagged as plagerism which I think is kind of funny. The highest one seems to be lifting from Wikipedia. Crisis averted the reveiw may continue!

3. No maintenance tags.
4. Page is currently stable, no persistent vandalism.
5. No previous nominations  Pass

Good Article

Well-written

Any particular reason why Jimmy Donaldson/MrBeast is listed as MrBeast and not Jimmy Donaldson? I understand that the articles name is MrBeast as it is the common name is that the reason here?

The voice cast section is based on the end credits crawl. He is referred to as MrBeast in the end credits. Post Malone, for example, is referred to as Austin Post in the credits despite his pseudonym being better known, and the name of his article.

At the end of "Themes" before the quote a period is used instead of a comma when it should be the other way around

Fixed it!

 Done  Pass

Verifiable

I have randomly selected sources 8, 75 and 102 for a spot check. (based on this revision )

Spotchecks

REF 8

Claim:

Kyler Spears joined the film as co-director, signing on because he had worked with Rowe on his prior film, The Mitchells vs. the Machines (2021).

Source:

Cinesite Tapped for ‘Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem’, Title Revealed

Proven by source: No the source does confirm Rowe worked on Mitchel vs. the Machines and that Spears worked on Mutant Mayhem. It was paried with a second source () which does confirm that the link between the two was the Mitchels v. the Machines

REF 75

Claim:

Audiences surveyed by CinemaScore gave the film an average grade of "A" on an A+ to F scale, while those polled at PostTrak gave it an 88% overall positive score, with 70% saying they would definitely recommend the film.

Source:

Proven by source:

There is a section dedicated to the film where the information is confirmed.

REF 102

Claim: The film was nominated for a still pending (as of 7 January 2024 winners have not yet been announced so it is listed as pending) for a critics choice award.
Source:

Proven by source:

Under the subheader "best animated feature" it is listed.

Backed up by other sources: Which is an offical website states the fact as well.

What is the reliablity of Nerd Reactor? From what I looked at their website doesnt have an about page and I havent found anything atesting to their reliability. So is it good? Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 18:46, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

I was able to find this discussion from 2020 and this one from 2021. I think in the context I used it, it is fine? But maybe it will be safer looking for a substitute. Zingo156 (talk) 19:55, 7 January 2024 (UTC)

 Pass

Broad in coverage

The plot section is 579 words, 121 under/over the 700 word limit.

Article stays on topic with links where applicable.

 Pass

Neutral

Nothing overly praises it nor criticizes it. Good mix of postive and negative reviews in "Critical Reception"

 Pass

Stable

The last reverted edit was on the 25 of December 2023. Its been pretty stable since then it also has a Protection Template. No major debates in the past three months.  Pass

Illustrated

The article has five images two of which are free use. The three from commons are of the producers and the director which I understand.

1. Movie poster (free use): Understandble to show
2. Concept art (free use): I understand the use of this under desing to held explain the characters better.

 Pass

Improved to Good Article status by Zingo156 (talk). Self-nominated at 17:44, 8 January 2024 (UTC). Post-promotion hook changes for this nom will be logged at Template talk:Did you know nominations/Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Mutant Mayhem; consider watching this nomination, if it is successful, until the hook appears on the Main Page.

• The article recently passed GA, so it passes on that level, and I'll assume it's well sourced, has no copyright violations, and is well written based off of that. Looks long enough and the linked source is reliable. It also appears that you haven't had 5 DYKs yet, so no QPQ required. I'll give this the pass, I prefer ALT0 as a hook but I'll leave that to whoever wants to move this any higher. λ NegativeMP1 18:05, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

Just a note to the reviewer @NegativeMP1:. It is up to a reviewer to do a thorough review without assuming that someone else already checked it. We have had DYK articles with issues that have come through the GA process. We need these multiple checks to ensure that we are not featuring an article with issues. As a reviewer you should consider using a checklist like: Template:DYK checklist. I hope you stick around and keep contributing here. I note Earwig alerts to a long quote so the 46% is likely not an issue. Bruxton (talk) 23:01, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

I note for a queue promotor that the hook ALT0 is cited in the first paragraph of the design section in the article. The Animation Magazine (#8) source seems more reliable than the /Film one (#32) which is, I think, a blog? Not a DYK issue but a GA one: the blockquote citation is in the wrong place in our article: per MOS:BLOCKQUOTE It is conventional to precede a block quotation with an introductory sentence (or sentence fragment) and append the source citation to that line. so someone should move the citation. Bruxton (talk) 23:13, 8 January 2024 (UTC)

Hi, sorry about that - I'll be sure to perform more extensive reviews in the future. I do think that, from the short glance I took still, there's still nothing absolutely detrimental to the article that'd disqualify it from a DYK appearance. I'd think major issues like that would reer their heads near immediately. λ NegativeMP1 08:30, 9 January 2024 (UTC)

Semi-protected edit request on 15 July 2024

Excuse me, I cordially ask you to grant access. I wanted to put some more information on this page, be it more comments from critics and excerpts about the production. Would you release the page. Lucas er pereira (talk) 22:48, 15 July 2024 (UTC)

 Not done: it's not clear what changes you want to be made. Please mention the specific changes in a "change X to Y" format and provide a reliable source if appropriate. — Paper9oll (🔔 • 📝) 04:30, 16 July 2024 (UTC)

Cast section

You know, we don't need to list every cast member that appeared in the movie even with all the minor bit parts. Just keep the principal cast and the supporting ones including the cameos. That's it. BoythisisworsethanthetimeIwassus (talk) 19:17, 22 September 2024 (UTC)

Cool, now here's a link for the MrBeast cameo.

Though have it be credited by his full name, "Jimmy "MrBeast" Donaldson". BoythisisworsethanthetimeIwassus (talk) 20:21, 27 November 2024 (UTC)

Is MrBeast's cameo really significant enough to include in the section? I included the sixteen main characters of the film and Eastman's cameo as it's significant. Zingo156 (talk) 04:54, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

It was his voice acting debut, and they used him for the marketing around its release. BoythisisworsethanthetimeIwassus (talk) 06:58, 29 November 2024 (UTC)

Alright, but I am using "MrBeast" because that is what the film credits him as. Also I am including Bobby Wagner, as he was a popular star that similarly got a brief cameo. Zingo156 (talk) 18:42, 30 November 2024 (UTC)

Ok, cool. Thank you. BoythisisworsethanthetimeIwassus (talk) 00:28, 1 December 2024 (UTC)

Based on credit in infobox

So, while I agree with nearly all of Zingo156's changes to this article, I have a general question regarding the based on credit in the infobox: how should we reformat it, using other comic book based film articles (several of which are GAs and/or FAs) as a point of reference? Thanks, sjones23 (talk - contributions) 17:09, 25 November 2025 (UTC)

Is this film based off of?

Is this film based off of the 2012-2017 Teenage Mutant of Ninja Turtles Nickelodeon series or the whole franchise? ~2026-13714-2 (talk) 19:30, 30 March 2026 (UTC)

The whole franchise. It's a reboot set in its own continuity, which thus far consists of this movie, the Mutants Unleashed video game and the Tales TV series ((not to be confused with the comic series of the same name, nor the last season of the 2012 series, which also used the title). Listing the main franchise is the correct link. oknazevad (talk) 20:30, 30 March 2026 (UTC)
