First read-through[edit]

Hello, Aoba47 I'll be reviewing this article against the good article criteria. I have to say upon my first read-through's I'm impressed with this article, it seems very well sourced and is very well written. That said, I don't have much to complain about just a few points to address:

  • The image in the Infobox also does not need a caption per the instructions as it is the title card.
  • Also per Infobox instructons the "Related shows" section should only be used for "remakes, spin-offs, adaptations for different audiences." It doesn't appear to me that anything listed there meets those requirements.
  • Understandable. I have removed it. Aoba47 (talk) 16:27, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • In the lead the dates of the series run both have a year. I think the first year could be excluded to read "from September 8, to December 22, 1973" to get the same point across (similar to the Infobox.)
Revised. Aoba47 (talk) 16:27, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • The premise and characters section reads "In Jeannie, high school student Corey Anders discovers Jeannie's bottle while surfing and draws the title character out of it." The link to "the title character" just redirects to I Dream of Jeannie which is about the television series not and not about the character.
  • In the episodes section can I suggest using {{Episode table}} over the raw code?
  • I have added it to the navbox. Aoba47 (talk) 16:33, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
  • I have removed the 1975 part. Aoba47 (talk) 16:33, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

As I said, not much to critique about. Other than that the article seems amazing and I'll pass it pending the issues above being addressed. TheDoctorWho (talk) 10:55, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • @TheDoctorWho: Thank you for the review! I greatly appreciate t > I have addressed all of your comments so far. I hope you are having a great day so far. Aoba47 (talk) 16:33, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

@Aoba47: Compared the article with the list above and almost everything passes. I'm a little concerned with this... There's an 81% copyright match to IMDb. I ran it again against a previous version ([1]) and there's a 95% percent match. It appears that was from before you began editing the article but do you know if these summaries were copied from IMDb? TheDoctorWho (talk) 20:21, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]

  • Thank you for the message. I would not be surprised if the original episode summaries were copied directly from IMDb (or even if the opposite happened). I have never seen an episode of this particular show so I had to rely on other websites' episode summaries. I tried to paraphrase it so it would be more unique while still retaining the same information. Aoba47 (talk) 22:30, 24 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
Considering it's not an exact copy I'll accept. Everything else looks good! I'll finish up with closing this, congratulations on your hard work! TheDoctorWho (talk) 01:35, 25 July 2019 (UTC)[reply]
