New and long enough, a copyvio check reveals no problems, hook content is interesting and is verified with a citation to a reliable source in the article. Matters to be resolved: 1) The Episodes section has no sources, 2) QPQ needs to be completed. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 08:49, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

Hello Northamerica1000! Per Wikipedia:How to write a plot summary#Citations, the episodes are referenced to themselves. There's no information in those tables beyond what can be found in the episodes themselves. The QPQ is in progress, and I'll ping you when it's resolved!

@The ed17: I don't want to be a stickler, but Wikipedia:How to write a plot summary is an opinion essay, whereas per D2 of the DYK Supplementary guidelines states, "A rule of thumb is one inline citation per paragraph, excluding the lead, plot summaries, and paragraphs which summarize other cited content." I'm not sure that the first table in the Episodes section could be considered as a plot summary, because it's not. Rather, it's a list. Also, the airing dates in that first episodes box are not sourced anywhere else in the article. Furthermore, the external links you added to the article with all of the YouTube links could potentially violate WP:NOTDIR. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 18:22, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

I mean, I could convert it all to citation templates, but functionally it'd be the same thing—taking airing dates and credits straight from the linked videos. That's exactly why plot summaries aren't required to have citations. (Also, I didn't add the tables, a new user did. ;-) ) Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 18:25, 22 September 2018 (UTC)
(ec) Also, the Worth It: Lifestyle Episodes section has no sources as well. The problem is, when you finish your QPQ, if I were to then just say, "oh well, I guess it's fine", another user can then come along and state how 1) the review was in error and 2) that the article doesn't qualify without some sources in these sections. Seems easier just to add some sources. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 18:27, 22 September 2018 (UTC)

I'm working on the new additions. :-) I've brought this question to WT:DYK#Episode lists, and I hope you understand that I'm doing that with absolutely no malice towards you—I'm just surprised at the rule and would like to have it clarified if possible!

@Northamerica1000: With no comment on the WT:DYK post, I've converted the tables to use citations. Ed ^{[talk] [majestic titan]} 04:10, 29 September 2018 (UTC)
Nb. See my commentary at Template:Did you know nominations/Exhibition of Australian Art in London; the QPQ review there is incomplete. North America¹⁰⁰⁰ 09:17, 3 October 2018 (UTC)

Ed hasn't edited since October and has been unable to provide a completed QPQ. In the interest of this nomination continuing, I'm donating one of my unused QPQs (Template:Did you know nominations/Cheerleading in Australia). The sourcing issues appear to be addressed, so I'm now giving this the tick. Narutolovehinata5 ^tccsdnew 04:31, 9 November 2018 (UTC)
