- Several unsourced sections in the Drew Carey Show, Improv Television and Price Is Right headers.
- Other roles and appearances section begins almost every sentence with "In/on [date], Carey x". This should be copy-edited to remove the proseline and one-sentence paragraphs.
- Unsourced BLP info under Personal Life regarding his weight.
- More "In [date], Carey x" sentences in Sports Involvement, plus an unsourced final sentence that's also a one-sentence paragraph.
- Is it really relevant to Drew's article to say that The Price Is Right changed several things after he took over?
- Multiple Bare Urls.
- At least two citations to YouTube videos. These should be removed.
- Citation #55 (Gerweck.net) is 404.
- Is XBOX Solution reliable?
- I doubt the reliability of Xbox365.com since the article is attributed to a screen name ("Coola").
- Same thing with Everything2.com.
There was a previous GAN in 2009, but it was a two line reassessment that basically said "well, this has flaws but I still think it's a GA". To call that a GAN is ludicrous, so I'm giving it proper reassessment. Ten Pound Hammer, his otters and a clue-bat • (Otters want attention) 16:10, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
- As the person who reassessed it a couple years back, it does look like it's in much worse shape than I remember, so a delist is appropriate unless the issues are fixed above. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 19:29, 15 July 2011 (UTC)
- This is one of my earliest and most unwatched GAs (I really haven't given it a major cleanup in awhile). A lot of things have snuck in since he took over as host of PiR, but there are some older grammar and sourcing issues that should be replaced/revised. I'll address these issues this weekend. I definitely have learned that celebrity articles are the hardest to maintain of any GA/FA I've worked on, followed closely by films. --Happy editing!

- I've addressed the above issues, replacing several of the sources and adding new ones. Several sections have also been re-written and excessive detail removed. If any other issues are still prevalent, please let me know. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 23:41, 17 July 2011 (UTC)
