As part of cleaning up the archive of The Goods, I’m revisiting reviews written prior to adoption of the site’s standard style and requirements. The goal is to have consistency across all reviews on the site.
A review is considered revised if all of the following have occurred:
- Minimum word length verified (400+ words)
- Formatting/screencaps added to match site standards
- Links added to reviews for other referenced films
- Podcast episode embedding (where appropriate)
- Light voice/content/copy editing to match site standards
- (Starting Aug 2023) – Review subtitle added
