List of 30 Rock episodes[edit]

I am self nominating this page because I feel that it meets the FL criteria and also because I have been some what working on this page for the past few weeks to bring it up to a (atleast good) standard which it certainly was not this time last month. -- Jamie jca (talk) 23:57, 10 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

  • I think the "as the stike has now ended, 30 Rock is expected to air five further episodes " needs changing. In five years time, it'd look strange to still see this, and 30 Rock don't air them, NBC do. Something like "The strike ended on date, 2008, and NBC is expected to air five further episodes beginning April 10, 2008....."
  • Is someone going to update the article every single day for the "as of March 11, blah episodes have aired"? Usually, the date is that of the most recently aired episode.

That's it for now. I'll read through the actual episodes soon. -- Matthew | talk | Contribs 16:01, 11 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Support Meet criteria, all concerns satisfactorily addressed -- ṃ•α•Ł•ṭ•ʰ•Ə•Щ• @ 16:14, 27 March, 2008

  • Support Looks great. A few minor comments as usual:
    • "in which the season is split into Volume One and Volume Two" - 'split into two volumes' essentially has the same meaning but a little simpler.
    • "The Girlie Show's network executive, Gary, dies, Jack Donaghy" - how about 'network executive Gary dies' just to get rid of a few commas?
    • "a loose cannon movie star, to the shows cast" - possessive apostrophe after show.
    • "various plots and story archs are explored" - I'm guessing that's story arcs?
    • "A few minor story archs are carried over into season two" - as above.
    • "which include, Cerie Xerox's" - no comma necessary.
    • "Don Geiss, the GEO of GE" - is that CEO, or could you explain? I wiki'd GEO but not there. Typo?
    • "returning from summer hiatus to many problems, an immediate problem is Jack trying to maintain the success" - where the comma is should be a full stop (period) to separate into two sentences, or a semi-colon or something. There are a number of ways to re-word it but splitting into two sentences would be fine.
    • "Another story arch" - again, arc.
    • "Floyd are also viewed aswell as Tracy" - 'as well' is two words.
    • "his failing marridge" - now that's an an interesting one. Marriage.
    • We probably don't need all the links in the season 2 episodes synopses. Maybe keep The Today Show but the others such as Pacific, entourage etc are a little trivial and unnecessary. And we don't need a link to TGS - that's already been covered.
    • I also see in season 2 there are a few recurring/guest character links - I haven't looked at the character list but if you're linking season 2 characters maybe link the characters on the list that are mentioned in the season 1 synopses.
  • Otherwise, good work, meets all criteria as far as I'm concerned. •97198 talk 06:33, 13 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments - sorry I missed this one, my comments...
    • Couple of WP:MOS things - use en-dash for year separators, and no over capitalising section heading (e.g. Series Overview should be Series overview).
    • "(TGS)" - if this is going to be the abbreviation, un-italicise it.
      •  Doing... All instances of TGS in the text or just in the lead when it says TGS with Tracy Jordan (TGS)? -- Jamie jca (talk) 20:06, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    • Why is 31 bold in the lead?
    • Image caption is a fragment so no full stop required.
    • One problem I see in general is the instability of the list- you've already got three vacant episode slots which no doubt will be filled in when relevant to do so, but the list should be stable.
      •  Done Removed the empty slots.
    • Refs [6] and [8] need to be placed on the other side of the quotation mark.
    • Order citations in numerical order.
  • I'll try to review the prose later but these issues need resolution before I can support. All the best. The Rambling Man (talk) 19:14, 21 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Comments-IMO, the lead needs a little bit more sourcing. Also for the table, especially for the second season, seeing how you put the season episode number in parenthesis, I would use a format similar to List of The New Detectives episodes.--TrUCo-X 18:02, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    •  Done but I left season 1 because the season number is the same as the series number. Should I change that? -- Jamie jca (talk) 20:03, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
      • No it should not, but you responded to my comments accurately, thus I Support.TrUCo-X 20:27, 22 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]
