Article Title

edit

This needs to be given the "(Office episode)" qualifier in the title, as a page exists for a normal job fair. The only difference appears to be capitalization. (I don't know how to change a page's name wholesale.) Slurms MacKenzie (talk) 05:35, 9 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

Good point. I moved it. - Shaheenjim (talk) 00:18, 10 May 2008 (UTC)Reply

GA Review

edit

This review is transcluded from Talk:Job Fair (The Office)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

  • "Plot synopsis" → "Plot"
  • Expand the second paragraph in the lead.
  • Only periodicals need to be italicized in the references, not all publishers.
  • References need to be consistent; some have comma or period before "Retrieved". I suggest using {{cite web}} for all.

Made the changes, tell me what you think. --Mr.crabby ''''' (Talk) 22:17, 26 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

The prose needs some work. Some examples below (these are only examples; please take a look at the entire article's contents):

  • "Office—the" → "Office, and the"
  • "few employees goes to an area high school's job fair" → "few employees go to a high school's job fair"
  • "Pam does venture to a booth " → "Pam ventures to a booth "

Fixed the prose issues you mentioned along with some others that I've found. --Mr.crabby ''''' (Talk) 22:40, 26 June 2008 (UTC)Reply
  • Still need an "and" here: "The Office, the show's " → "The Office, and the show's " – otherwise, it might as well be split up into two sentence
  • "the one's who" → "the ones who"
  • "At first the client " → "At first, the client "
  • "to be not interested in talking about businees," → "to not be interested in talking about businees,"
  • "suppliers, he" → "suppliers; he" – the semicolon needs to be there otherwise the break between the two phrases seems awkward
  • "After much" → "However, after much" – "however" because the preceding sentence says that he is not interested; his change of mind seems so sudden, that a conjunction word should be placed here

There are probably a few more similar examples like these throughout the article. I think a second pass-through should be made. Cheers. Gary King (talk) 23:15, 26 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

Mastrchf and I both went through the article. Here's what we found: [1] --Mr.crabby ''''' (Talk) 14:47, 29 June 2008 (UTC)Reply

The job fair is season 4 episode 13 not episode 17 74.88.49.233 (talk) 23:27, 11 May 2020 (UTC)Reply

  Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. The Office (American season 4) states it's the 17th episode. GoingBatty (talk) 23:41, 11 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
Wikipedia uses the original broadcaster's (NBC's) episode numbers. So episode number 17 is correct. See List of The Office (American TV series) episodes. —Bruce1eetalk 07:45, 12 May 2020 (UTC)Reply
