Wow, Morty Seinfeld looks different. Anyway,

The article claims that the title is sometimes spelled "The Stakeout". Source, please.
The lead says that Jerry flirts with Vanessa, but the plot section says that he does not, so…?
Art Vandalay is mentioned in the production section, but never before.
It would be nice to see the 16.2 ratings in millions of viewers.
"featuring Elaine and Jerry"—do you mean "featuring Louis-Dreyfus and Seinfeld"?
"Reviews at the time gave were almost all positive"—Oh, really? Source, please. Or at least more than one positive review versus two negative reviews.

I've tried to carry out as many of the recommendations as you asked for. I am not sure who to calculate the ratings into percentages (I'm British, so I not entirely sure on the firgues and precentages of the American population) and I did have some trouble finding reviews, but I've done my best.

I think it's Simon, not Sagman edit

I can't find an official source for this either way, but I've always believed it's Simon, Bennett, Robbins, Oppenheim & Taft, not Sagman, Bennett, etc. There is a fake web site using Simon, and it's pretty clear to me that it's Simon. I'm guessing that someone misheard the name & it snowballed from there. There is a web site called SeinfeldScripts.com that has all the scripts, but they're not official scripts; they're transcribed by someone not affiliated with the show, and they used Sagman, which I believe is where the error originated and all persons who use Sagman are simply quoting the misquote.PhilOSophocle (talk) 21:59, 27 September 2015 (UTC)Reply

Maybe there are different versions of the episode? I heard "Simon" on TV, but the clip on YouTube (with subtitles) clearly uses "Sagman". Maybe turn on subtitles on a DVD? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=g-ZBlzwO6P0 — Preceding unsigned comment added by Djanke~enwiki (talk • contribs) 00:11, 20 November 2015 (UTC)Reply
