Comments from reviewer[edit]

  • In the image's caption, I would expand upon what it depicts?
  • Why is the showrunner necessary for the infobox?
    • This seems to be the standard method for Simpsons episodes. See the Featured Articles Lisa the Vegetarian and Homer's Enemy. Even though this is necessarily a season rather than episode detail, some episodes are holdovers from the previous season, such as FA-Class Cape Feare, which was part of the Jean-Reiss season 4 production run but broadcast in David Mirkin's season 5 '''tAD''' (talk) 09:28, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Add more from the production section into the lead.
    • Done (I can add more if more is needed) '''tAD''' (talk) 09:35, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • You have a duplicate link to Homer in the synopsis.
  • "The segment ends with the original version of Homer unsuccessfully trying to photograph a good portrait of the two families together, a direct homage to the short "Family Portrait" from The Tracey Ullman Show." How do we know this?
  • In Production, why is the first paragraph only one sentence long?
  • I would sprinkle in the EW ref maybe one more time throughout the para (after the direct quote perhaps)--it just makes things better for appearances.
  • Duplicate links here include Stanley Kubrick and A Clockwork Orange (film) (from the lead) and Eyes Wide Shut (from the synopsis)
    • Done. As far as I know it is acceptable to have links repeated from the lead and image captions '''tAD''' (talk) 09:42, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Link to "Super Franchise Me" where you say "the previous week's episode."
  • Are these the only reviews you could find?
    • I can indeed look for more, although it's more about what they say rather than how many we have '''tAD''' (talk) 09:42, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
  • Put in a critical consensus sentence as well as things that critics tended to like and dislike about the episode.

@The Almightey Drill: Nice work! Just a few things to fix before I can pass. Johanna (formerly BenLinus1214)talk to me!see my work 04:00, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]

@The Almightey Drill: Good work! I'm satisfied enough to pass now. If you get a chance, could you review one of my Veronica Mars articles up at GAN. If you can't, it's okay. Johanna (formerly BenLinus1214)talk to me!see my work 23:39, 11 October 2015 (UTC)[reply]
