Some thoughts on this, OlifanofmrTennant:

  • IMDb is not a good metric, even if repeated in other sources, as it's user-generated and subject to all sorts of issues like selection bias and vote stacking.
  • Without repeating other articles too much, I think there is some place in "Production" for an explanation of "six seasons and a movie" and that this did become the final episode after Yahoo! Screen collapsed. This might be some use.
  • Some book sources that look useful: [1][2]. I would like to use TV (The Book) but Google Books won't show me a preview: [3]
  • Other sources—I've not fully evaluated whether each is reliable and useful yet: ProQuest 1750643264 (Den of Geek listicle), Daily Beast, Daily Dot, /Film, Observer, Collider, Alan Sepinwall in Uproxx, Press Enterprise, TVLine, ScreenCrush, CinemaBlend, TVOvermind, HappyMag
  • Chang's fart joke is explained here.
  • Per WP:VGRS, CBR is a "situational" source, so we need to think about whether this is an appropriate use.

Let me know any thoughts you have. I can try to incorporate some of these sources within the next few weeks, but if you can do it sooner then go for it. — Bilorv (talk) 17:26, 3 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]

So included on the season six DVD it includes an extra titled "Six seasons and a finale" which includes some production details. Could it be cited or would it be considered Original research the same way citing an episode would be? Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 20:14, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
Yes, you can definitely cite DVD extras like that. — Bilorv (talk) 20:21, 7 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
I'll add that it's fine to use that as a source, but be careful not to overload the article with that information – see WP:PRIMARY. RunningTiger123 (talk) 04:18, 8 March 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@OlifanofmrTennant: other than some of the additional sources above I think we've resolved all those points. I want to add any more sources I can find and reformulate the "Reception" section by theme rather than by critic. I've put a lot of the content in an "Analysis" section—do you think it makes sense at the moment? Does any of the content need to be reordered or move back to "Production"?
Also, I like the fact about the opening shots from the DVD commentary. I know some of them aren't filled with much information but are there any other facts that could be relevant? (We shot this scene on location—okay, he's right. It won't work.) — Bilorv (talk) 17:28, 12 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
They might but I dont have access to the season 6 commentary's as they aren't included on the complete series box set. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 05:07, 13 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Bilorv: Would you be intrested in nominating this for GA?. I'ts fine if your not. I'm going to make a few edits. But please let me know either way. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 19:38, 1 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@OlifanofmrTennant: I've not forgotten this article but I have been very busy. I can't commit to doing this immediately but in the next month I could carry out some more edits and then we could co-nominate it for GA. If you would prefer not to wait and nominate it yourself then go ahead—I don't mind either way. — Bilorv (talk) 21:22, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
@Bilorv: I'll wait for you. Questions? four Olifanofmrtennant (she/her) 22:16, 2 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]
