- Lead
- No wikilinks for Larry and Paul Barber? Non notable?
- They must not be notable enough, I guess. No article for either - it's the same for a few of the crew involved with the show, as some of the directors and writers of other episodes have no articles. I felt it maybe was best not to redlink them but I guess I could if you'd prefer. GRAPPLE X 17:04, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
- You could investigate and see if there are enough sources to create articles on them, perhaps the Barber brothers or something. If not, don't worry. I know that finding sources for crew is often very difficult, even if they are notable.♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:28, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
- I have some of the book sources for the series, and there's another in the post, so I could see what's in there to be able to pull an article together, if there's anything. I suppose something's better than nothing, after all. GRAPPLE X 00:35, 15 August 2011 (UTC)

- Plot
- "Whilst shaking hands she experiences an intense feeling" -does she tremble or grimace or something? Please elaborate.
- "Meanwhile, inn another club a man convinces a reluctant young girl to dance with her by touching her hand." - Inn?
- "A chanting drone can be heard across the village as a lamp-lit procession of the Kindred moves to a barn Scully is led off by Brother Andrew, who claims to be able to give her information about the murderer, whom he calls Brother Martin. "- Is there supposed to be a full stop between barn and Scully it doesn't make sense?
- "Downstairs in the barn, the group can be seen bathing the body in watery clay. " Which body is this?
- Changes made here. My spelling is atrocious it seems. :P GRAPPLE X 17:04, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
- Broadcast and reception
- "Matt Haigh, writing for Den of Geek" Is this definitely a decent source?♦ Dr. Blofeld 13:45, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
- I responded to this in your review of Tooms but in case you see this first, I'll add it here. I searched WP:RSN before adding the sources, and this discussion seemed to allow it. The response there was that it was from a reputable magazine publisher, Dennis Publishing, and should be okay as a source. If that's not the case I can remove the content using it, as none of it is overly important. Again, thanks for taking the time to review the article, I appreciate the help.

OK, glad you checked, the name is not exactly endearing as a source though is it!.♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:34, 14 August 2011 (UTC)

Good job again. As I said before you have picked up on the formula which works for these television episodes and provides an effective, focused article on it, even if relatively short. I'm particularly impressed with your plot on this article as its a complex episode yet you write very clearly. The flaw in many plot summaries of TV series I see is that editors don't write in a way that even somebody unfamiliar with the episode or even series can really take in. I feel this article is not comprehensive enough or of FA quality as of yet, would need a great amount of work I think, but Gender Bender, like Tooms possibly has more potential sources than most. But certainly meets the GA criteria.♦ Dr. Blofeld 17:34, 14 August 2011 (UTC)
