Rate Attribute Review Comment
1. Well-written:
1a. the prose is clear, concise, and understandable to an appropriately broad audience; spelling and grammar are correct.
1b. it complies with the Manual of Style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation.
2. Verifiable with no original research:
2a. it contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline.
2b. reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose).
2c. it contains no original research.
3. Broad in its coverage:
3a. it addresses the main aspects of the topic.
3b. it stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style).
4. Neutral: it represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each.
5. Stable: it does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute.
6. Illustrated, if possible, by media such as images, video, or audio:
6a. media are tagged with their copyright statuses, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content.
6b. media are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions.
7. Overall assessment.
Short review
  • References 1, 2, and 10 are dead
  • "Million Dollar Maybe" should be in italics, not "in quotation marks"
  • 1 million should have currency prefix (USD)

Plot

[edit]
  • "Favorite CD" is not specified in the episode.
  • "cousin" should be capitalized, as a prefix
  • "it" should be specified since it could mean other things.
  • 1st paragrafe should be trimmed, as it does go in unessesary detail such as the last sentence.

Production

[edit]

Reception

[edit]
  • Found none

Discussion

[edit]

I'm putting this on hold for 3 days. There is not alot, so a shorter grace period is in order. Can go up to 7 days on request.

Should be good now. :) —DAP388 (talk) 23:15, 15 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Just a couple of comments from an uninvolved editor
  • "Million Dollar Maybe" should not be in italics; per the MOS, episode titles should be in quoatation marks (see Wikipedia:ITALICS#When not to use italics)
  • Disagree that currency needs to be any more specific than $. WP:CURRENCY advises being specific when the context is unclear. Although not explicit, I'd argue that the lead makes it clear enough that the context is the US, and changing $ → US$ would add unnecessary clutter. Just my opinion, but either way, it's not covered by the GA criteria.
  • "cousin" shouldn't be capitalised in English as it is a common noun, unless you are reading it as "cousin" being part of her name/title, in which case surely it should be "... do a singing toast at Cousin Valerie's wedding"? It's comparable to "... do a singing toast at his mother Valerie's wedding."
