GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


Nothing witty to say, so let's get to it, then.

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:  
    There's a few unusual turns of phrase in here that I'd like to see gone - "as they all wrote and directed its previous episode" should be "the previous episode", for example, whilst "Stan models as a bully" seems bizarre. Having not seen the episode, I'm going to assume this is a mangling of the phrase "poses as", which would be better. I'll probably change these myself though, if they prove to be the only issues.
    B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:  
    MOS compliant, no problem there
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. References to sources:  
    Decently sourced
    B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:  
    Citations are made appropriately
    C. No original research:  
    No OR here, everything is verifiably cited.
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:  
    Hits all the points it needs to
    B. Focused:  
    Doesn't stray into stranger lands, stays with the episode in question
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:  
    Seems neutral. Reception section is mostly positive but it seems that's simply due to the overall reception being mostly positive, so not an issue.
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:  
    History is stable. Many edits but nothing contentious or debated.
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:  
    Lead image is the only one, and it seems to pass fair use to me.
    B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:  
    Lead image is used in the correct place and captioned appropriately. Article does not strike me as needing further images so this being the only one is not a negative.
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:  
    Overall I'm going to pass this as a Good Article. The only issues I found with it were some grammatical oddities, but given the relative triviality there, I'll go ahead and fix those myself.

The following discussion is closed. Please do not modify it. Subsequent comments should be made in a new section.

The problem is with criterion (2):

  • On the basis that all citations are online resources, only ref#2,5,6 can be verified.
  • Only ref# 5 and 6 are reliable sources. Ref#2 is from IMDb, which is unacceptable.
