Comment about GA

Isn't it a bit soon to nominate it for GA? The episode only aired five days ago.... --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 21:57, 21 February 2012 (UTC)[reply]

That shouldn't have any bearing on it. If it's up to snuff, it's up to snuff.--Gen. Quon (talk) 04:39, 17 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

But it won't have any commentary, which could provide useful info when the DVD comes out. --♫ Hurricanehink (talk) 00:51, 24 March 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Well, when the DVD does come out, it can be added in. In my experience, it's easier and better to improve an article as well as you can, and then add other sources when they come later.--Gen. Quon (talk) 03:14, 6 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

This is several months later, but no commentary on the DVD. :(--Gen. Quon (Talk) 02:02, 26 September 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

Lead

"According to Nielsen Media Research, "Special Project" drew 4.38 million viewers and received a 2.3 rating/6% share in the 18-49 demographic, marking a twelve percent drop in ratings from the previous episode, "Special Project",...". This statement makes no sense. You are saying that the episode "Special Project" drew 4.38 million viewers which was a 12 percent drop in ratings from the previous episode which is (according to the statement) the same episode.

Plot

"...look as if he had been murdered in order to prank Dwight, going so far as to write "It was Dwight" on the wall in faux-blood." Shouldn't this statement say something like: "...look as if he had been murdered in order to prank Dwight, going as far as to writing "It was Dwight" on the wall in faux-blood."

"Dwight and Erin walk in to find the room in ruins, and Jim lurches out of the closet as if he has been murdered." Writing the sentence like this sounds better: " Dwight and Erin then walk in the room only to find it in ruins. Moments later, Jim lurches out of the closet as if he has been murdered."

"However, he returns three hours after his appendix is removed in order to impress his new boss." Maybe the sentence should be written like this: "However, three hours later, after getting his appendix removed, he returns in order to impress his new boss."

"Meanwhile in Scranton, the office is left without a reception." This should be turned into this: "Meanwhile in Scranton, the office is left without a receptionist."

Production

"Tallahassee" marked the return appearance of Catherine Tate, who previously appeared in the seventh season finale, "Search Committee" as a candidate to replace Michael as office manager.[3] Tate was initially the top choice to join the cast as the manager, but due to a commitment to the West End production of the Shakespeare play, Much Ado About Nothing she was unable to join the series.[4][5]" So you are saying that Tate returned to the show but was unable to join the series at the same time. Makes no sense.

Alright, I believe I've addressed all the issues. Thank you very much for reviewing!--Gen. Quon (talk) 01:14, 27 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]
