I'll take this article. I know that it's discouraged to review newly queued articles like this, but it seems an interesting article. I got a few preliminary comments:

• No broken links
• No obvious copyvio.
• Rationale for fair use and captions explaining the picture.
• wiki-links appropriate items, though I wouldn't think that you should've have linked "dead-on" for the "In Other Media section.

•  Done. Unlinked the term.

More comments will be coming tomorrow. Jerry (talk) 02:06, 28 May 2017 (UTC)

"Tommorow." Sorry for that, I forgot about this review.

• You mention in this article that Mr. Krabs is in a relationship with Ms. Puff. I've done some poking around and looked through the sources mentioning, and their relationship is mostly from that one-off episode, and if at all mentioned, is mentioned in passing. Episodes mostly seem to hint at it, them dancing together, etc. I think that the relationship is canonically referenced in that one episode.

• While it's true that their relationship was toned down for several years, it has taken more of a prominent role in the most recent season. In the episode "Whirly Brains," Mr. Krabs and Mrs. Puff go on a date and Krabs states that he and Mrs. Puff have been "dating for sixteen years." I figured the relationship would be necessary to mention as it affects the plots of various episodes.

• Reference number two is a book, so it should be in the bibliography, IIRC.

•  Done.

• Hyphenate "low cost" in "because of their low cost and positive impact on his finances"

•  Fixed sentence by rephrasing, as I realized it was a little confusing. I intended to write that he appreciates how little his employees work for (low cost) and how much money they make for him (positive impact on his finances), but I see that the earlier phrasing looks like low cost is being used as an adjective to describe the impact.

• "Bottom line" sounds like a cliche.

• I agree that it is a cliched phrase, but it's part of a quotation from SpongeBob's voice actor, so I don't think we need to change it.

Pfffft. Whoops.

I've gone over the article again, and I found nothing noteworthy to fix, except that the ISBN for the Arthur Brown book seems to be wrong. After that, I will pass the article.Jerry (talk) 15:51, 10 July 2017 (UTC)

I think I've fixed the ISBN issue. The Last Wikibender (talk) 03:04, 11 July 2017 (UTC)
