I've listed this article for peer review because it needs it badly. Thanks, Tj terrorible1 (talk) 20:11, 30 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I think this aarticle and List of characters in The Simpsons could be merged Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 00:57, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Marging is a seperate issue (see talk), but i don't see much here to review.

Good
A. It is a list, and does it's stated job of listing characters, and keeps the entries concise.
B. It is apporpriately laid out and wikified.

Improvable
1. Would it be possible to use a simpsons poster image as fair use? I've seen some with many many minor characters - a relevant caption might make that allowed for fair use.
2. To get to featured list it needs citations for all of the characters, preferable not just citation to the episode they are in, but to a secondary and/or reliable source (DVD comentary is ok, and there are a quite a few Simpsons non-fiction books). Some are missing even cites to the primary source (the episode). Yobmod (talk) 16:14, 2 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

I owuld make it clear in the lead (which needs refs) what the criteria are for inclusion in this list - does a character have to appear in a certain number of episodes (two) to be listed here? Ruhrfisch _><>°^° 01:08, 3 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]
