General

A few dead links [1]
No dablinks or copyvio issues
Fairly well-written article. Good job!
Can you add a few more images, not necessarily Olyphant's.
A few instances of overciting at some places. If you want to cite sources as examples, say here ...has participated in many pro-celebrity tournaments or he and the show were often perceived to have been "snubbed" by Emmy voters, I have no issues with that, but to support a single fact like but has said he does not consider him a "good guy" you can do with three refs.

Lead

For an article of this length the lead should be at least 3 paras long

Early life

I think articles (after lead) typically begin with the person's full name
I see some overciting at the end of the part and Katherine (née Gideon) Three refs should suffice. Also after the first quotation in the last para
both remarried May look a bit too sudden after the mention of their divorce, when exactly did they reunite?
The second para seems part of personal life, not early life.
but was told By whom?

1995–2003

Sure Olyphant didn't receive negative reviews on his debut?
but he did not have an opportunity to meet the show's producer, Clint Eastwood, who quit days before filming began Not sure if this is relevant here

2004–2009

Good, but look at "general" comments

2010–2015

There, he encounters many outlaw figures from his childhood, including his father and Boyd Crowder, with whom he dug coal as a teenager Maybe we are getting too much into the character? I would say a line merely introducing the character should suffice.
Raylan Givens has been described by many television critics You can simply call him "Givens" once you have introduced him. Please check for other instances I may have missed.
Justified was awarded a Peabody Award in 2011 Italics for "Justified"

2015–present

Good, but look at "general" comments

Personal life

delivering his reports in an unconventional style What exactly was this style?
Olyphant is a keen tennis player Sure the wording "keen" comes from the sources 242 and 243 (the sources immediately after the part)? I am unable to access the websites but I need to be sure.

Filmography

Is each entry in the tables sourced? (also in Awards and nominations)

Returning with more tomorrow. Sainsf (talk · contribs) 18:04, 24 June 2016 (UTC)[reply]
