GA Review
The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.''

Production

 * What's a holdover? Why did it become a holdover?
 * As a result, the writers, animators, and producers had to work extremely long hours – So did they work on the episode during the summer? Shouldn't this have given them more time than usual for the episode?
 * Done


 * they enjoyed DeVito's guest starring - This is the first time DeVito is mentioned. Link please.
 * Done


 * There's no need to link "original Herb episode" to "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" (it's already linked a few sentences earlier).
 * Done


 * Originally, when Bart performed his "Living Room Olympics" - "Living Room Olympics"? Clarification please. :)
 * Done


 * joke was scrapped.[8]The - Insert a space after "[8]".
 * Thanks for the comments! I've fixed most of the concerns, but I removed the bit about the holdover because he commentary wasn't exactly clear about why it became about a holdover, and they only mentioned it :) Cheers,  I 'mperator 19:18, 31 August 2009 (UTC)


 * the word 'Excellence' in the award title - Use quotation marks around excellence. Also, excellence shouldn't be capitalized.
 * Done

I began a review of this article but ended up becoming one of the main contributors. I am therefore requesting a second opinion. Thank you,  The left orium  16:31, 13 September 2009 (UTC)

Second opinion

 * In the lead, this sentence ---> "The producers decided to create this episode in part because many The Simpsons fans were unhappy", reads kinda odd.
 * Is it better now?
 * The wording was fine, "The Simpsons" was what made it read strange.
 * Removed "The Simpsons" from the sentence.
 * In the Production section, please link "Springfield" to its correspondence article.
 * Done.
 * Same section (production), "...many viewers being unhappy about the sad ending to the previous episode "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?" (season two, 1991)" ---> "...many viewers being unhappy about the sad ending to the previous episode of season two "Oh Brother, Where Art Thou?", something like that, your choice.
 * I prefer the way it is now. The same "format" is used on several of the project's featured articles, such as Homer Simpson.
 * Just a suggestion.
 * Same section, "Originally the producers were going end the original Herb episode with Herb saying "I have an idea!" at the end of it", I believe "to" should be between "going" and "end".
 * Done.
 * Check.
 * In the Reception section, "In its original American broadcast, "Brother, Can You Spare Two Dimes?" finished 31st in ratings for the week of August 24–30, 1992", I think "the" needs to be added between "in" and "ratings".
 * Done.
 * Check.
 * Reference 17 is missing Publisher info.
 * Done.
 * Check.

 * Alright, everything seems in order. I would like to thank everyone who got all the concerns, because I have gone off and placed the article as GA. Congrats. ;) -- ThinkBlue   (Hit   BLUE)  17:08, 21 September 2009 (UTC)
