GA Review

[edit]

This review is transcluded from Talk:Did I Stutter?/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review. GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria

This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.

  1. Is it well written?
    A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
    The plot summary is very short in the lead and it would be best to expand it a little, even though that's how the episode went by.
    Check. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:42, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
    B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
  2. Is it verifiable with no original research, as shown by a source spot-check?
    A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with the layout style guideline:
    B. Reliable sources are cited inline. All content that could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):
    In the Production section, does Reference 3 cover all this ---> "After it was used on the show, she decided to sell it on eBay. The listing was first put up on eBay on May 1, 2008, the night the episode aired. However, the day before the auction ended, NBC Legal Affairs contacted Ferry and asked that she not give away an original script from "Did I Stutter" that was being included in the vehicle sale. Instead of removing the script from the auction, Ferry chose to stop the entire auction. Ferry re-listed it on June 16, 2008, and this time had cast members autograph the car. The winning bid was $10,400"?
    C. It contains no original research:
    D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:
  3. Is it broad in its coverage?
    A. It addresses the main aspects of the topic:
    B. It stays focused on the topic without going into unnecessary detail (see summary style):
  4. Is it neutral?
    It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:
  5. Is it stable?
    It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:
  6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?
    A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:
    B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:
  7. Overall:
    Pass or Fail:
    If the above statement can be answered, I will pass the article. Good luck with improving this article! Also, contact me if the above statements are answered.

For 2B, Ferry wrote on the eBay Page:

I first put my Xterra up for auction the night the episode aired. Of course I informed my producers, and there was even talk of cross promoting with NBC publicity, but in the end I was told to go ahead with the sale on my own.

Then, a day before the online auction ended, I was contacted by NBC Legal Affairs and asked not to give away the script, which had generously been signed by the actors as a gift to my buyer. NBC considered the material in the script to be their property, as they did the sides and prop stickers. Out of respect for my show and the network, and to be fair to all bidders, I closed the auction on eBay(which the highest bidders were fine with).

After regrouping, I am listing my Nissan Xterra on eBay once again. Now, anyone can have the chance to own and drive Dwight’s car, which Rainn Wilson was kind enough to personally autograph on the driver’s side visor(see video). As an added bonus, I am extremely fortunate and grateful to be able to include a few wonderful donations from “The Office” cast to the winning bidder.

That seems to cover everything said in the paragraph you quote. If you still disagree tell what info is unsourced and I'll find one for it. Thanks again for reviewing --Mr.crabby ''''' (Talk) 13:43, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
I just lengthened the plot summary. --Mr.crabby ''''' (Talk) 14:16, 4 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Both the ref. and the lead work fine. I'm sorry if I put you through some hassle, is just that I wanted to make sure that it did cover that info. Sorry. But, enough of that, congratulations, you know have a GA in your midst. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 01:42, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
No worries, thanks for your time on another article. --Mr.crabby ''''' (Talk) 02:19, 5 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Did I stutter is the 12th episode in the fourth season of the office, not the 16th. There are not even 16 episodes in the fourth season. 2601:8A:200:9780:4C7:9AC4:3B2F:2BA9 (talk) 23:50, 15 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]

 Not done: See The_Office_(American_season_4)#Episodes. 42-minutes episodes are considered to be two separate episodes by number. JTP (talk • contribs) 02:23, 16 April 2020 (UTC)[reply]
