Comments

• There is one dab link

• Three refs need dates and access dates

Done. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• Also with refs, add IGN, not ign.com. A few are missing producers all together.

Fixed. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• The reception section should be in chronological order (opening sentence for instance should be preceded by earlier reviews, if there are any).

Couldn't find any earlier reviews, sadly. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• It could use another review or two. Also, it needs ratings data (always hard to find I know)

I found another review, which I'll add shortly, but that's about it. I also found out that a fictional word from the episode made it to a list of best created Simpsons words, but I'm not sure if that would pass as a "review," per se. I'll try to get my hands on some ratings info too. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• I might suggest realigning the Mark McGuire image to the left (just a personal preference so not everything is skewed right)

Done. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• Wikilink Fox network, Major League Baseball, and Bart in lead

Fixed. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• "starts paying more attention to his studies" Add bolded

Fixed. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• Clinton was still in office at the time, so remove "former"

Fixed. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• As always, identify how Meyer and Kirkland relate to show (staff writers? producers? etc)

Fixed. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• Sentences with direct quotes should end with direct citations

Fixed. Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

I'll place the review on hold for seven days while everything gets sorted. Thanks, Ruby2010 comment! 20:11, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Thanks for the review! Not really sure if the article will pass to be honest (mostly because there are so few reviews of the episode, and the entire season as a whole), but I'll do my best! Queenieacoustic (talk) 09:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

I've added a couple of things now. What do you think? Queenieacoustic (talk) 11:31, 25 May 2011 (UTC)

• Looks good. Pass for GA. Nice work, Ruby2010 comment! 17:47, 25 May 2011 (UTC)
