List of X-Men episodes[edit]

Criterion 2 - The lead appears to be one sentence long. checkY
Criterion 3 - Some episodes have one-sentence plots.
Other - What makes this and this reliable sources? Also, the only image used in the article doesn't have a rationale. « Milk's Favorite Cøøkie 22:20, 23 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

  • Apologies, Milk, I changed "criteria" to "criterion"; hope you don't mind. TONY (talk) 03:08, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Reserving judgement
  • Needs a copy-edit throughout; random examples—
    • A few awkward sentences, such as "The series' first 13 episodes were notable for being possibly the first time ever that an animated series had a full season of episodes flow one into the next, creating a single continuing narrative, something the series producers fought heavily for.
    • "longest running"—ambiguous without hyphen.
    • Para 3: past or present tense? Not both. ("is").
    • Each episodeS?  Done
    • See MOS on spelling out numbers and spaced em dashes.
    • Tone unencyclopedic: "Looking back at the previous Marvel animated adaptations" (Who's looking back?)
    • "Episode 4x03"—Is that standard code for Ep 4, Series 3? Odd.
  • Cr 6: Why the grey backgound. It does make the text just a little harder to read.  Done
  • Please attend to Milk's issues.
  • I've changed the repetitious opening. TONY (talk) 03:08, 26 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
  • Rewrite - There are too many X-Men episodes in multiple and different X-Men cartoon series to slap them all up on one page. I say, articles on each different X-Men series. Each has a subsection or sub-page...with one sentence descriptions for each episode. Example: Episode 4: Wolverine and the New Mutants fight rampaging space monkeys.

Neutral I'm busy in real life and have no time to work on the summaries. So if someone else wants to work on em go please do. --Gman124 talk 21:12, 2 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
