I will take this review. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 00:40, 24 December 2023 (UTC)Reply

Sadly, this article is far away from meeting GA criteria 2 and it meets quickfail criterion 1. The uncited material in the article is not the problem: rather, it is the fact that the article relies near-completely on 2,000 year old classical authors, who are not WP:RS. The entire article needs to be rewritten with a focus on modern scholarship. Harding 2006 is a good start, but there needs to be more. Because of this reliance on ancient authors, there is some original research (see citation 12: "However, Plutarch (Theseus 34) makes Laodice mother of Mounychus (others call her son Munitus) by Demophon, not Acamas"), and the topic is presented in a rather "in-universe" manner. References should be made to the opinions of classicists (see Gilgamesh as a good GA example). Feel free to renominate once the issues are fixed; ping me if you have any questions. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 00:53, 24 December 2023 (UTC)Reply
