Joke of this episode

[edit]

Having watched this episode, I noticed that this episode was playing into the commonly held belief around the world that people in Britain are unwilling to speak their minds - in this episode, all the British guests do not speak their minds when the opportunity comes to them, and yet the American guest does whenever he can. Perhaps it is not wholly appropriate to add to the page, but I thought it would perhaps be a good idea to suggest it be put in. 195.59.167.114 (talk) 15:27, 12 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Centralized TV Episode Discussion

[edit]

Over the past months, TV episodes have been redirected by (to name a couple) TTN, Eusebeus and others. No centralized discussion has taken place, so I'm asking everyone who has been involved in this issue to voice their opinions here in this centralized spot, be they pro or anti. Discussion is here [1]. --Maniwar (talk) 01:08, 16 January 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Waldorf salad ft.jpg

[edit]

Image:Waldorf salad ft.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Proposed move

[edit]

Shouldn't this article be moved to Waldorf Salad? The capital S could be used to distinguish it from Waldorf salad, and a dab link could be used at the top of the page in case people were looking for the article on the salad. leevclarke (talk) 15:52, 16 May 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Concurred. Especially now that Waldorf Salad is a redirect to the dish. --StrexcorpEmployee (talk) 17:29, 16 July 2020 (UTC)[reply]

Most popular?

[edit]

I couldn't help but notice this statement in the article; "Along with The Germans, it is generally considered one of the most popular episodes". Now, while I am aware that this is already tagged as 'citation needed', I feel it not merely in need of a citation, but in fact the OPPOSITE of the truth (i.e. One of the LEAST popular episodes, along with The Wedding Party). Certainly, it's not on the level of classics such as The Germans, Basil the Rat, or Communication Problems. In terms of popularity, of course, a Wikipedia talk page is hardly the place to make judgements on their quality. --31.49.114.175 (talk) 13:43, 25 February 2018 (UTC)[reply]
