GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


I have to say, this probably ranks among my least favourite episodes of any television show.

  1. Is it reasonably well written?
    A. Prose quality:  
    B. MoS compliance for lead, layout, words to watch, fiction, and lists:  
    Given things a light copy-edit to fix anything I saw wrong. I've simplified down some of the figures listed—9.0 is the same as 9, for example.
  2. Is it factually accurate and verifiable?
    A. References to sources:  
    B. Citation of reliable sources where necessary:  
    C. No original research:  
    Seems grand. I made some changes to ref 12, as it's better to add navigational notes in a manner that looks deliberate—sticking them in the |title= field can lead to them being overlooked.
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. Major aspects:  
    B. Focused:  
    Not keen on how brief the "reception" part of "Broadcast and reception" is. I have a review for it in the Shearman and Pearson book I'll add, and I think there has been mention of this episode in some of the articles we've cited before. I'll take a check through those today.
  4. Is it neutral?
    Fair representation without bias:  
    Neutral/unbiased.
  5. Is it stable?
    No edit wars, etc:  
    History is uncontroversial, article is stable.
  6. Does it contain images to illustrate the topic?
    A. Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:  
    B. Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:  
    Images are mostly fine. One is commons (and I can think of another article I'd like to use that in so I'm glad I saw it here); the non-free one could perhaps mention why that scene is "poignant" (it's already mentioned in its caption so it's not a big issue).
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:  
    Going to put this one on hold for now. The crit 3 work I'll handle but I want to be sure the review is sorted before I start adding information to the article. Aside from that it should be good to pass. GRAPPLE X 17:12, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
OK, cool, I'll sort through some of the articles we've used to see if I've missed something.--Gen. Quon (talk) 17:32, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
Added the Shearman and Pearson review, found some other stuff online too. Looking much more rounded now, so I'm going to pass this one. Well done. GRAPPLE X 18:30, 1 March 2012 (UTC)Reply
