GA Review

[edit]
This review is transcluded from Talk:Blind Date (30 Rock)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

Reviewer: Courcelles (talk) 05:08, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

What do you know, it's a TV episode of a show I've never watched below 35,000 feet *grins*. That said, I don't anticipate this being much of a problem. Let me have a read through. Courcelles (talk) 05:08, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Image check: 1 fair-use, seems in order, one freely licensed. Both, however, need Alt text.

Referencing: Here's the major problems, the referencing isn't up to scratch. The vast majority of them are missing the publisher information. Ref 12 is citing IMDb, is there an author on 14, and why are the dates of a different format than the article?

The reason for IMDb is due to GLAAD's website not having the link to the list of winner of the awards that night, so IMDb came the closest to it. Ref. 14 doesn't have an author, and made a ref. consistency. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 14:44, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
What about [1] to replace- or supplement the IMDb ref? Courcelles (talk) 19:55, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]
Hmmm, didn't see that one, but has been added. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:21, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

We have an article on Cerie Xerox, should it be linked in the infobox?

No, well it depends. If you want to, than yes. I decided not to.
That's fine.

"At night, Liz gets lonely and calls Gretchen. After sharing their fears as single women, they go to dinner. The two go out one last time." This is a bit choppy- the second sentence feels redundant, or that it could be integrated into the following sentence.

Do you have a suggestion?
current:"they go to dinner. The two go out one last time. Gretchen expresses that..." Idea:"After sharing their fears as single women, they go to dinner. There, Gretchen expresses that she feels she is starting to chase the "straight girl" and says they should stop seeing each other." I'm not much of a writer, but that "The two go out one last time" is a bit of foreshadowing, and rendered redundant by the end of the paragraph.
Done. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:21, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

"This was Riggi's first writing credit, and was Bernstein's third directed episode. " Source?

The source after citing that Riggi wrote it and Bernstein directed it.
The ref is actually before this sentence. This sentence makes it sound like this was their first and third credit overall, not just on 30 Rock.
Yeah, you know what, I've removed it. If it's this big of a deal, then just forget it. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 20:21, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

All the stuff about other L&O actors appearing on 30 Rock strikes me as unnecessary; almost trivia. None of them other than March were in this episode.

Removed, then.

Reception section "viewed by 6.01 million viewers"; lede "6.01 million households". Which is it? Viewers != households.

viewers.

"This episode was the 72nd most watched episode of the week." Citation?

Added.

Like I thought, no major problems. Courcelles (talk) 05:47, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

One more comment. The article uses Month day year dates, while the references use year-number month-day. Is there a reason for using a different format? Courcelles (talk) 19:58, 20 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Very well. The dates in the refs would have to be consistent before FAC, but I won't hold this up over it. Good article Passed. Courcelles (talk) 18:31, 21 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Should this episode have an entry?

[edit]

It seems according to notability it really shouldn't. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.90.119.65 (talk) 19:19, 12 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
