Comments

• Lead: I think production info should stay together (i.e. rearrange it so that the casting info with the writing, directing credits).
• Brian Craston is wikilinked twice in lead
• "...investigating possible, and erroneous, domestic terrorism." How is the domestic terrorism erroneous? I assume you mean that there ultimately was no terrorism?
• No need to wikilink United States, United Kingdom, and Ireland (common words)
• "The episode received 0.70 million viewers..." An episode does not "receive" viewers ;)
• "The episode later won an American Society of Cinematographers award for best regular series" -> "Drive" won the award for Outstanding Achievement in Cinematography – Regular Series from the American Society of Cinematographers.
• Quotation mark problems persist (" versus ')
• Use consistent ref formatting (5 vs 7 for example)
• Ref 7 publisher should be New York (also provide wikilink)
• Unitalicize Critical Myth

I believe that's it. I'll place the review on hold for seven days (though it'd be cool if you get it done by the 28th, (b/c of the Wikicup). Thanks! Ruby 2010/2013 01:10, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

OK, I believe I've fixed all the issues. Thank you for reviewing!--Gen. Quon (talk) 04:01, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

• Looks good. Pass for GA. Ruby 2010/2013 04:33, 24 February 2012 (UTC)

External links modified

Hello fellow Wikipedians,

I have just added archive links to one external link on Drive (The X-Files). Please take a moment to review my edit. You may add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it, if I keep adding bad data, but formatting bugs should be reported instead. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether, but should be used as a last resort. I made the following changes:

• Attempted to fix sourcing for http://www.theasc.com/awards/history/1998.htm

When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true or failed to let others know (documentation at {{Sourcecheck}}).
