Picture and subtitle

you dont put the actors or actress's name on subtitle they dont do it for other shows so they wont do it here Joe59108 (talk) 19:15, 16 August 2009 (UTC)Joe59108[reply]

Not true, nor is it a policy. Also, you're change was invalid - Dr. Phineastein is not portrayed by Phineas Flynn, as he a fictional character. Vincent Martella voiced him, but as it seemed useless in this situation I did remove it, for aesthetic reasons. Thank you, The Flash ^{talk} 02:41, 18 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

To occupy the time, Doofenshmirtz tells Perry of his Victorian ancestor.

In a previous line, the article talks about Dr.Phineastein. Since there are two doctors, the article needs to specify which one.

Production

Quoation marks are not needed over every term of The Monster of Phineas-n-Ferbenstein
The production section is weak
There is a paragraph with just two sentences
See the production section in Homer's Barbershop Quartet for more details.

Lead

The paragraphs in the lead are too short.
There are too many paragraphs for an article of this size.

This article has a few problems, which I will give one week to fix. Thanks Warrior 4321 01:41, 2 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Since no efforts were made to try and fix the article, the article has failed the good article review. warrior 4321 23:19, 9 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
