This peer review discussion has been closed.
I have listed this article for peer review because it has just been rejected for good article status, and some of the issues that it seems to have appear to be impossible for me to solve. There were a number of dead links in the rejected revision, all of which I have since taken care of - most by offering archived versions available at the Internet Archive's "Wayback Machine" (with the exceptions of two such links for which I could not retrieve legible archived versions; in their cases, I simply removed the links but retained the basic citations).
When the article was quick-failed, it was addressed that there were numerous paragraphs without any citations. I responded to this by taking care of some such paragraphs, but it concerns me that many of the problems with this article are possibly the responsibility of anonymous IPs who do not understand, or care about, our verifiability and reliable sources policies. Please discuss what specific measures can be taken to help ready this article for good, or even featured, article nomination in the future.
I would gladly appreciate the time and cooperation of anyone who is willing to be involved in this discussion. Seth Allen (talk) 03:17, 26 May 2013 (UTC)
- I would suggest going over "Gameplay" and making sure everything is sourced that needs to be. Things like "If a non-tournament game ends in a tie for first place after Final Jeopardy!, the tied players become co-champions, retain their winnings, and return for the next episode." and "In tournament play, the contestants involved in the non-zero tie will be given one final clue, and the player who responds correctly to the final answer will advance to the next round; however, players cannot win by default." should be sourced. If a rule of that sort has been explicitly mentioned on-air, then a {{cite episode}} should suffice.
- "Regular Tournaments and Events" should be copy edited. Every paragraph is "In [year], blah blah blah happened." Maybe combine some sgments.
- "Theme music" seems like it'd be impossible to source the current key changes. In fact, I'm not sure if even the older ones are relevant. If you can't find anything discussing the theme's musical arrangement, then this section could probably stand to be removed.
- Also, the themes for the Fleming version need to be sourced.
- There were two Animaniacs episodes with Jeopardy! plot lines, one of which was a Pinky & the Brain short. Think those should be added if sources can be found?
Those are just the things I noticed so far. It'd really be nice to get this to GA along with the Wheel of Fortune article, which I've been working on. Ten Pound Hammer • (What did I screw up now?) 07:47, 27 May 2013 (UTC)
