Moved unsourced from article to talk page edit

I moved the below information from the article to this talk page, because it was unsourced. Cirt (talk) 19:58, 18 December 2007 (UTC).Reply

Censorship edit

  • In this episode’s original airing, when Stewie made his birthday wish, you could hear an audio clip of Adolf Hitler giving a speech, followed by people chanting “Sieg Heil”. In Fox reruns, Adult Swim airings, TBS airings, and the DVD, it is replaced with the sound of a bomb whistling and then a big explosion. However, some Adult Swim airings have broadcasted this episode with the original Adolf Hitler audio clip.
  • Syndication edits:
    • The Cheesie Charlie's manager's "Heil Hitler!" in Peter's supposed flashback is removed, along with Peter's line, "Uhhhh actually the name's Griffin".
    • The entire scene of Meg introducing Jennifer to Lois was removed.
    • The "ass" in Brian's "If you're going to pull a party out of your ass..." has been redubbed to "butt".
    • The Hitler audio clip is removed from the wish scene.

Of course, if and when sources are provided this can be moved back into the article. I will try to find sources for some of this, and note it here. Cirt (talk) 19:58, 18 December 2007 (UTC).Reply

Without looking at the rest of the article at more than a glance, my biggest issue with this is the Reception section. At present it only has two reviews - one of which isn't even by a professional critic, so I'd get rid of that per MOS:TV#Reception - and that really isn't enough. The purpose of a Reception section is to summarise the wide critical response to an episode, and one opinion (I'm discounting "the TV Critic") is in no way representative of the broader critical reception of the episode. Obviously, the more reviews the better, but I personally would say a bare minimum of three professional reviews are needed to give an overview of an episode's reception.

Actually The TV critic could be considerd a real review if you look in the ABOUT section of his website, I will try to find another review. --Pedro J. the rookie 21:18, 25 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

I'll put the GAN on hold rather than fail straight away, to give you a chance to look for more reviews (if possible). If you can flesh out the Reception section, I'll have a look at the rest of the article. 97198 (talk) 02:21, 20 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

I have looked at the TV Critic's website. My point is that it's a self-published website, so he's not being employed by anyone to write reviews. He's just a guy who started up a website and writes about his opinions of TV shows. You or I could do the same, but it wouldn't make either one of us a professional critic.
The one-week hold period is over and it appears as if you couldn't find any other reviews. I'm going to fail the article, sorry. Feel free to renominate if you can put together a more well-rounded overview of the episode's reception. 97198 (talk) 02:06, 28 November 2010 (UTC)Reply

Looks good, a few changes and it's ready to go.

Specific
  • Each first sentence of each paragraph begins with "Chitty Chitty Death Bang", try changing that (it's used 4 times in the lead only).
  • A "1 year old" should be "one-year-old"
  • Nicaragua needs a link
  • "other various characters" various other.
  • "Peter lost his watch of the Dukes of Hazzard." This needs clarification.
Could you be more specific? Pedro J. the rookie 01:33, 29 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
Well, what does it mean for one? It doesn't seem to make a lot of sense to me. That Ole Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 03:20, 29 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
  • "When Stewie is packing he takes a bag of Cheerios with him" How is that a reference. Should be removed.
  • "called said that" Doesn't make sense. One or the other
  • Also the sentence with "called said that" in it needs quote marks.
  • Again tv.yahoo is not a very reliable source.
Again? Well anyway, I disagree since the page is owned by Yahoo, but in any case I added a TV Guide link. Pedro J. the rookie 01:33, 29 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
TV Guide is an even more unreliable source, remove it. I'll accept the Yahoo one, begrudgingly. That Ole Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 03:20, 29 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
Everything else is taken care of. Pedro J. the rookie 01:33, 29 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:  
Okay that's a pass, good job working on this.   That Ole Cheesy Dude (Talk to the hand!) 00:25, 30 June 2011 (UTC)Reply
