A lot of work has been put into this article, particularly by the likes of Frickative and BlueMoonset, amongst others. The Glee task force would like to see it meet the criteria for becoming a featured list. I would like some feedback on the current state of the article, and I will do my best to correct and improve the quality of it.

  • Comment (no where near reviewing the whole article as I haven't the experience; I've got a season article up for PR for FL criteria now anyway) instead of using two DVD covers for each volume, what about just one of the whole season? (Like this) Glimmer721 talk 02:07, 12 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Thanks for making the point about using the cover for the Complete Season DVD rather than the separate volumes. If a fair-use image is allowed in a FL, that's probably what we'll do. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:38, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
Comments
  • Infobox image caption doesn't need a period.
  • I would also say "Volumes One and Two" there as well.
  • "Billboard Hot 100 " normally represented as "Billboard Hot 100" and consider linking.
  •  Done Very true, and we typically do both. Linked and italics. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:10, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • " It is being accompanied by " I don't really follow this, the previous sentence was talking about awards and nominations...
  •  Done Sentence opening rewritten to make this a new idea; let me know if it works better now. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:10, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • "juvie" - not clear to me what this is, a bit colloquial.
  •  Done They use the phrase "juvie" on the show, so we don't know exactly what it's actually called. I've gone with "juvenile detention center", and modified the link. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:10, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Consider linking mash-up for non expert readers.
  •  Done I discovered that it should really link to "mash-up (music)", since "mash-up" goes to a disambiguation page, which I don't remember being the case. I see many more edits in my future... BlueMoonset (talk) 17:10, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • "from season one returned for season two" -> "from the first season returned for the second" (just reads a little less clunky to me).
  • Question: is cancelled USEng or BritEng or both?
  • Answer: both "cancelled" and "canceled" are valid uses in USEng (according to Websters), which is what we use for Glee articles since it's a US show. It's "cancelled" in BritEng. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:10, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • "Teenage Dream" is a dab link. In both uses.
  •  Done And different dab links besides. Both are now fixed. Thanks. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:38, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • "its 13x Platinum" not keen on 13x in prose, nor the use of an x, I believe we have a "times" symbol if you insist on using this prose.
  •  Done I was just following the ARIA designation without much thought about prose vs. tables. Let me know how you like "thirteen-times" in place of "13x". The phrase "double platinum" is used earlier in the section, but wouldn't work with thirteen. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:38, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • "after the Superbowl:" I thought it was Super Bowl?
  • "Over 26.8 million viewers watched it, with an initial peak of 39.5 million. The 18–49 rating/share was 11.1/29.[108]" consider merging the two short sentences.
  • Refs 83 and 87 both Billboard magazine links but formatted differently with different publisher info.
  •  Done (?) I believe I've standardized all the Billboard citations: all use "cite news" rather than some "cite news" and some "cite web", and all use "Prometheus Global Media", which bought up "Nielsen Business Media Inc." at some point during the show's run. Any thoughts about the "location" field? Not all articles specify an origination location (generally Los Angeles or N.Y. for Billboard), and I was wondering how useful it was in the first place.) BlueMoonset (talk) 18:58, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Refs 111, 112, 133 to 143 (for instance) should use an en-dash in the title.
  •  Done I got all of those, and have noted a few more that I'm about to fix as well. BlueMoonset (talk) 18:58, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review! One of us will get to the remainding items later today or tomorrow. One question: are non-Commons images allowed on Featured Lists, even ones that aren't available any other way? Was wondering if—regardless of whether it's the two separate volumes or the complete season volume as recommended by Glimmer721 above—using a fair use image would turn out to be a problem. BlueMoonset (talk) 17:10, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
ETA: I think I've addressed them all. Let me know if there's more to do. Thanks again! BlueMoonset (talk) 18:58, 17 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not an expert, but it seems that fiar use non-free images are permitted for all the other DVD covers/posters on almost all other season FL articles. Also, I noticed that the episode summaries seem slight compared to Glee's season 1 article. Glimmer721 talk 19:49, 18 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
