Nominator(s): Blurred Lines 14:23, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I am nominating this for featured article because by the peer review that was made a few months ago, and the only problems that were found was the dead references and the British - American language, which was easily fixed by me. Also, by it's information, it does meet the FL criteria, and should be promoted. Blurred Lines 14:23, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Oppose, suggest WP:Featured list instead. That's what Family Guy (season 5) and Family Guy (season 8) are classified as, and it seems more appropriate for season articles.

Comments from Maralia A few notes after a quick look:

• The article talk page is templated with a note about several broken section links that date back to 2010; can you check whether those still need fixing?

 Done I have just checked those links, they seem to be fine, so I have removed the template from the talk page. Blurred Lines 19:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

• Particularly in the reference section (but also elsewhere), I see quite a few wikilinks inside quotations, which MOS says to avoid. Most of them are elementary-school-level vocabulary words (God, sex, sacred, profane, condom, racism) so there's really no need to link them anyway.  Done Blurred Lines 19:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• There are a couple of italicized redlinks in the reference section that seem malformed: they don't point to likely article titles.  Done Blurred Lines 19:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• "Sales of the DVD set reached 2.2 million copies,[6] becoming the best-selling television DVD of 2003" - grammatically, this says sales became the best-selling television DVD. This could be fixed with "The DVD set sold 2.2 million copies, making it the best-selling..."  Done Blurred Lines 19:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• "Fox president Gail Berman said that it was one of her most difficult decisions to cancel the show, and was therefore happy it would return" - garbled; perhaps "Berman said canceling the show was one of her most difficult decisions, and she was therefore..."  Done Blurred Lines 19:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]
• "Fewer critics responded negatively to the season; Seattle Post-Intelligencer critic Melanie McFarland reacted very negative" - negative is an adjective; you need an adverb here, and preferably a different one to avoid redundancy with the first half of the sentence.  Done Blurred Lines 19:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

I see other grammar issues in the episode summaries, but don't have the time for a full review at the moment; will try to make it back to the article. Agree that FL is probably the proper venue.  Done Blurred Lines 19:55, 1 November 2013 (UTC) Maralia (talk) 18:30, 1 November 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Comments from Dtngo (talk) Great article! I believe that this page is written excellently. It also has the standard format of a television and is easy to navigate. However, some of the citations in the reference list can be updated with online references:

• For the 4th citation, the Gordon article can be found online here: [2]
• For the 26th citation, the Golden Reel nominations and recipients can be found in an archived page here: [3]
• For the 27th citation, the McGuire article can be found online here: [4]

I hope this helps. Dtngo (talk) 03:23, 23 January 2014 (UTC)[reply]
