Cited: Interesting:

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article is new enough and long enough, no copyvio or tone issues. Great sources on an episode that generated a lot of attention within and without the fandom. QPQ is done (thanks for that ;)). The plot summary was a little bit too similar to another one for Earwig, so I went ahead and edited it. The hooks are all very interesting but it looks like the bit in the articles about Alabama banning the episode actually refers to the Arthur episode which aired a month earlier. This means that those hooks are out. ALT3 and ALT4 are still good, but I'm suggesting an ALT5 and ALT6 that could also work. BuySomeApples (talk) 00:40, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

@BuySomeApples: Thanks for the review and rewrite of the plot summary. I find both ALT5 and ALT6 interesting... I don't really know what to say now... Pamzeis (talk) 01:49, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

I'm happy you like the other ALTs @Pamzeis:! I guess if you don't have a preference for any of the 4, I'll leave it up to the promoter to pick one.BuySomeApples (talk) 04:13, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

@BuySomeApples: Sorry for the ping, but is this good to go? If so, you should add {{subst:DYKtick}} or {{subst:DYKtickAGF}}. If there are any other problems, please feel free to let me know! Thanks. Pamzeis (talk) 04:42, 20 July 2021 (UTC)

The nom looks great@Pamzeis:, I approved it using the DYK checklist, so there is a green checkmark and it should be automatically moved to the approved page.BuySomeApples (talk) 04:57, 20 July 2021 (UTC)
