"At the risk of losing my voice, let me just say one more thing: I'm sorry I came."

— Jacqueline Bouvier

The article does not have serious issues that would warrant a quick-fail. Full review to be commenced shortly, likely tomorrow or Saturday. decltype (talk) 20:35, 11 June 2009 (UTC)

   Pass/Fail:

As usual, this article seems to equal the standard of other TV Episode GAs. Here are some minor issues:

"Jay Kogen and Wallace Wolodarsky are the names of two Dallas Cowboys players, a reference to two writers on The Simpsons." This was a bit confusing to me, I had to look up whether they where players or writers. How about "Two of the fictional DC players, JK and WW, are named after [two] writers ...", or something like that.

Done.

The Lisa quote about her centerpiece uses ellipses, but where text really omitted from it, or are they used to illustrate slight pauses?

Pauses.

I changed it into regular punctuation.

IIRC Maggie speaks in the dream sequence. "It's your fault I can't talk" or similar (voiced by Yeardley I presume). Is it worth a mention?

It might, but I can't find a reliable source for it.

Ah, too bad.

Are you sure the ISBN number is correct?

Fixed.

I have watchlisted the article and the review and will respond to improvements as fast as I can. decltype (talk) 07:11, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

Thanks for the review! TheLeftorium 07:59, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

Everything seems to check out now. I did a small ce and tweaked the FUR a little. The plot summary made me remember the entire episode, so I think it's pretty good. Still, I'd like to rewatch the episode before passing it. But I have no more issues, and I definitely think it is GA standard. Good work! (som vanligt) decltype (talk) 09:43, 12 June 2009 (UTC)

Okay, everything checks out. The plot section is succint, but is an excellent summary of the episode. GA passed. decltype (talk) 21:03, 12 June 2009 (UTC)
