Crying

[edit]

Think it's a reference to Glenn Beck as much as to John Boehner... AnonMoos (talk) 16:07, 9 January 2012 (UTC)[reply]

New South Wales

[edit]

How can a jail break in New South Wales affect the Simpson's trip from Pennsylvania to Montana? (I don't see it mentioned in the sources.) MathewTownsend (talk) 01:51, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
    • The sentence "The pilot makes another announcement that the plane is going to taxi back to the gate and remain there for an unknown amount of time; further, the passengers cannot get off." sounds awkward.
    • Arianna Huffington was not directly seen in this episode but rather parodied. Mention "Adriatica Vel Johnson" instead in the Plot section, linking her name to Arianna Huffington.
    I disagree. This information fits perfectly where it is now, in the second paragraph of the production section. Parodies should not be explained in the plot section. Theleftorium (talk) 11:44, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    It is still giving out false information in saying that Arianna Huffington was in the episode. I think that Adriatica Vel Johnson should be mentioned in the plot section, with the production section mentioning that she is a parody of Arianna Huffington. Dough4872 19:04, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    What are you talking about? The article clearly states that Adriatica Vel Johnson is a parody of Arianna Huffington, and not that Arianna Huffington appears in the episode. "Adriatica Vel Johnson, the commentator on the the political show that Homer first appears on, is a parody of commentator Arianna Huffington." Theleftorium (talk) 19:57, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    Reading the article in order, the reader first reads the plot then the production section. With the way it is currently written, the reader is first given the false impression that Arianna Huffington appeared in the episode before finding out that she is actually parodied. It would be better for the reader to read that Adriatica Vel Johnson was the character in the episode and then read in the production section that she is a parody of Arianna Huffington. Dough4872 20:04, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
    Oh I see the problem now! I didn't think there was any mention of Arianna Huffington in the plot section. I incorrectly wrote her name instead of Adriatica Vel Johnson. Theleftorium (talk) 12:34, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    Reference 18 needs a publisher.
    Done! Theleftorium (talk) 11:44, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
    Maybe mention that Homer was talking to James Madison in the dream sequence.
    Done! Theleftorium (talk) 11:44, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

I will put the article on hold for some fixes to be made. Dough4872 02:11, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review! :) Theleftorium (talk) 11:44, 12 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I will now pass the article. Dough4872 18:01, 13 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]
