GA review of Homer the Moe
Hi, Queenieacoustic. I've produced comments at Talk:Homer_the_Moe/GA1. Good luck! --Philcha (talk) 21:00, 15 February 2011 (UTC)

Hi, Queenieacoustic. I've just reviewed the lead, and it's fine. There is one outstanding point in the "Plot" section, the cumbersome "(which, though indicated by a sign, angers Michael Stipe, lead singer of R.E.M. who was told by Homer that this was an environmental activist bar)". Then it can be a GA. But don't delay - this review is 1-month old today. PS I'll be on holiday Fri 18 to Mon 28 Mar. --Philcha (talk) 19:24, 15 March 2011 (UTC)

Your GA nomination of Gump Roast
The article Gump Roast you nominated as a good article has been placed on hold. The article is close to meeting the good article criteria, but there are some minor changes or clarifications needed to be addressed. If these are fixed within seven days, the article will pass, otherwise it will fail. See Talk:Gump Roast for things which need to be addressed. The only concerns are that the writing style could be made more formal and given a clean-up; plus the article could be illustrated better with the addition of a lead image, preferably a screenshot from the episode. Either of these issues being addressed would satisfy me enough to pass the nomination, but I'd suggest to look at both anyway. Thanks. GRAPPLE  X  02:05, 29 March 2011 (UTC)

Re: Behind the Laughter
Thanks! The season eleven/twelve pages are pretty empty, I assume because they're very subpar episodes. But it certainly doesn't mean we can't help them. There's valuable information in the commentaries and that can be used. I plan on trying to add a lot more screenshots when possible. Thanks again! Thardin12 (talk)

You can alter the season 14 colours by editing these templates: Template:Infobox Simpsons season 14 episode list header and Template:Infobox Simpsons season 14 episode list.

But, you can not alter the text colour for specific seasons/episodes. So, you should not use the dark colour used at the season 14 page. -- Scorpion0422 II (Talk) 05:10, 18 May 2011 (UTC)

 * Since you got the image from http://www.lardlad.com/, which can't legally release the image, cause they don't own the copyright, your best option is to tag it WP:G7 and have it deleted. Looks good if you want to ever WP:RfA :) C T J F 8 3  19:18, 21 May 2011 (UTC)


 * I see, but is there some way I could use the image in the article? I've seen several Simpsons episode GAs that have more than one copyrighted image. I'll remove the current image, but I think what I'm trying to say is, if I find the image on Fox or Simpsons website, can I use it in the article? And are you saying you want me to be an admin? (Sorry for all the questions.... I'm really tired lol... XD ) Queenieacoustic (talk) 19:39, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Just a heads up in case you ever want to be an admin. An image from Fox, Simpsons website, or DVD is ok, cause they own the copyright, lardlad.com does not. Keep in mind #8 at WP:NFCC also, and when possible try to use mostly or all free images. C T J F 8 3  19:41, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Oh, okay. Sorry for the misunderstanding, lol! I'll see if I can find it on their website, otherwise I'll just let it be. Again sorry for the inconvenience. Queenieacoustic (talk) 19:45, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
 * No inconvenience or bother at all! Due to your good work with articles, I've taken it upon myself to keep you on the right track! :) C T J F 8 3  19:48, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Thanks! :D Queenieacoustic (talk) 19:49, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
 * Also, if you go to WP:DOH/TOPIC most of the season 2 and 3 (the newest WP:GTs) have very few non-free images without a really good reason. :) C T J F 8 3  20:10, 21 May 2011 (UTC)
 * You're right, haha! I guess it just changed over time, just like the GA standards. I just looked at a couple of the season 4 and 9 articles and many of them seem very short and undetailed, at least in comparison to the season 2 and 3 articles. Maybe we should organize some members to expand the early GA articles? I guess it would be better to focus on the Scully episodes first, even though they're pretty bad, and there's seriously no season 11 DVD reviews on the internet (I found two, Den of Geek and DVD Movie Guide. That's it!) Oh well. Queenieacoustic (talk) 20:36, 21 May 2011 (UTC)

Re: Simpsons ratings
Sorry for the late reply. I'll see what I can scrounge up :)  R uby2010   comment!  00:46, 24 May 2011 (UTC)
 * I discovered several articles explaining the episode gained a 8.5 rating (see below) and placed 40th for the week.


 * Taken from: JAG HELPS CBS WIN WEEK BY A NOSE; [Broward Metro Edition] The Associated Press. Sun Sentinel. Fort Lauderdale: Nov 19, 1998. pg. 4.E


 * A rating point represents 994,000 households, or 1 percent of the nation's estimated 99.4 million TV homes. Share is the percentage of in-use televisions tuned to a given show.


 * Prime-time ratings compiled by Nielsen list each show's ranking and its rating for Nov. 9-15. Top 20 listings include total homes, plus season-to-date rankings in parentheses for Top 10 shows. An "X" in parentheses denotes one-time-only presentation.


 * 1. (1) ER, NBC, 19.8, 19.6 million homes.
 * 40. The Simpsons, Fox, 8.5
 * 40. The Simpsons, Fox, 8.5

-
 * Here's another that had the same ratings data:


 * PRIME-TIME RATINGS; [MORNING Edition] Orange County Register. Santa Ana, Calif.: Nov 18, 1998. pg. F.02


 * Here are the prime-time ratings as compiled by Nielsen Media Research for Nov. 9-15. Top 20 listings include the week's ranking, season-to-date rankings in parentheses (an X in parentheses indicates a one-time showing) and rating for the week. Shows with the same number indicate a tie. The rating is the percentage of the nation's estimated 98 million TV homes. Each ratings point represents 980,000 households.


 * 40. THE SIMPSONS, Fox, 8.5


 * Hope all this helps. Let me know if you need more! :)  R uby2010   comment!  01:20, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

I can help you with finding ratings on your own. Please try logging into IRC, go here and go to the channel #wpsimpsons. -- Scorpion 0422  19:38, 27 May 2011 (UTC)

Baby Not on Board GAN
I've been improving "Baby Not on Board" so it could reach GA standards, but there are some sources that I've been needing. Perhaps another transcript would suffice? Your "420" transcript really helped, and I figure a "Baby Not on Board" transcript would, too. Railer-man (talk) 19:26, 2 June 2011 (UTC)

Girly Edition
Hey, I would do this myself but I have zero time (until next Friday), but Girly Edition has been nominated for Good Article Removal. It was only a matter of time because most of the early episode pages we did (most of seasons 8, 9, 6 and 4) have been superseded in quality by the newer ones and really need improvement (this is one of my targets for the summer). So, if you have time, please could you work your magic on it? That would be fantastic. Thanks, Gran2 15:42, 3 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Okay no worries. I'll see if I can do it in a week's time (the GAR process lasts a month). Gran2 19:58, 3 June 2011 (UTC)

Inappropriate quick, decline The Rocky Horror Picture Show
Your actions on the article are inappropriate and unexplained. There are few reasons that one may quick decline a review but in all instances the reviewer must explain the decision. Your list of references and a request for further with no comment is not a review and a review page was never started which constitutes a breach in protocol and policy and is a bad faith edit with extreme incivility.--Amadscientist (talk) 12:04, 11 June 2011 (UTC) Foud your so called review. Thanks for nothing. A hold would have been appropriate and with these notes there was nothing that couldn't be addressed and I am not certain many of your objections are relevant.--Amadscientist (talk) 12:14, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Assumming that I made the mistakes.--Amadscientist (talk) 12:53, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
 * No, because I didn't put all the crap there and you mistake was far worse because you didn't follow correct procedure for the review and it pushed back the article and the person trying to improve it with bad faith editing on your part.--Amadscientist (talk) 13:00, 11 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Please review the guidelines for reviewing. You made more than one mistake. There was no link to the review article on the talk page.--Amadscientist (talk) 13:02, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

OK...you made a review and your review finds were not without merit. They were in fact dead on. I don't think you made a mistake by failing it. I think the mistake was not properly starting the review as I have been watching the page and never saw the review page show up. Had I seen it I could well have shown you it wouldn't take that long by starting and working on the article immediately. You did not quick fail as there was a review. Failing the article after your assessment may be considered incivil but I believe if there are so many problems that you yourself could not remove or fix them in 7 days, it isn't against policy. The only action you would probably be guilty of with no question is your not checking the talk page to see that the review was being transfered correctly available to contributers to see as you work. We do not review within a subpage and drop it in and fail all at once. Working in such a way would go against the spirit and idea of Wikipedia. It isn't against policy to fail or pass. You just have to do it in the open and as a reviewer it is your responsibility to know if your review is open for all to see.

I have relisted, if you wish you can review it and return all you concerns or leave it and I will address all your concerns and wait for the next review. I am in no hurry if you do not wish to return to it. However, I should be encouraging reviews not discouraging them even in this instance. I need to assume good faith.--Amadscientist (talk) 13:48, 11 June 2011 (UTC)


 * I would have to check on IMDB but, as I recall it was the consensus of editors that it did fall under reliable published references. The official website of subjects may be used. It is clear, however that some of it's use may go farther than MOS as much of the information is not the original source but Fox news releases. I would argue that they are licensed from Fox so it does have some value an official web page and whatever limited way it can be cited. A fansite consists of an unlisenced site run by the fans themselves. Those sites have no editorial oversite and are all self published. Any information they contain can not be used unless they are the subject of comment and only for illustrative purposes.--Amadscientist (talk) 13:55, 11 June 2011 (UTC)


 * It may well be that the bot assigned to tranfer the Review page to the talk page has malfunctioned. I had "Pending" Changes show up instead of text this morning as well. You have to start sometime with other articles and you didn't get anything major wrong except not just checking your review to talk page. Had you seen it (or if it happens in the future) I would suggest making sure all steps are correctly taken before you begin reviewing such as changing the talk page Review tag and establishing the review page is transfering by making a single edit and saving to eststablish the page to allow the bots to begin transfer correctly, etc.--Amadscientist (talk) 14:08, 11 June 2011 (UTC)

OK, the Official site can be used with the Fox news releases as they constitute primary sourcing with news releases on the subject. They are official sanctioned and licensed for use of images etc and have editorial over site. Still not clear on IMDB but believe the article as it stands is not a Good Article candidate and will be removing it for now. The article is half the size it was just a few days ago and a good portion of accurate information had to be removed simply because it was not properly sited. And some of those references were mine and many of them were outside edits from IP an other registered members. I think it's about a C article right now. There are many new books that have become available for sourcing and there are many free or CC licensed imagie. The article should probably just use intense work to improve it's accuracy, neutrality and references. If you know much about the subject please feel free to weigh in and be a critical ear.--Amadscientist (talk) 00:05, 12 June 2011 (UTC)

Citing IMDb
Found it! Yes, IMDB can NOT be used for the following:
 * 1) Any potentially contentious material about living persons (BLPs)
 * 2) The IMDb message boards, which are inherently not reliable.
 * 3) The user comments for each title, which are pure user-generated content.
 * 4) Sections written in wiki-style with minimal editorial control. Those would be the FAQs for particular titles (not the database FAQ), the parents guides, and the plot synopses (not to be confused with the plot outlines or plot summaries, which are subject to editorial control).
 * 5) Newsgroup reviews, which are archived Usenet postings.
 * 6) The trivia and goofs sections that are based on user submissions.
 * 7) The recommendations.

It's use as a reference is limited to:


 * 1) The writing credits marked with "WGA" that are supplied directly by the Writers Guild of America (where applicable).
 * 2) The MPAA ratings reasons, where they appear, that are supplied directly by the Motion Picture Association of America.

Thanks! --Amadscientist (talk) 22:19, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Er...no....I was right the first time. Consensus still accepts IMDB and it has not become an official guideline yet, however your original reasoning still stands and may not be a GA worthy reference. Time will tell.--Amadscientist (talk) 22:26, 13 June 2011 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:The Lastest Gun in the West.png)
Thanks for uploading File:The Lastest Gun in the West.png. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'file' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "File" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. Hazard-Bot (talk) 04:22, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

GAN December 2013 Backlog Drive
{| |}

March 2014 GAN Backlog Drive
It's that time again! Starting on March 1, there will be another GAN Backlog Drive! There will be several changes compared to previous drives:


 * This drive will introduce a new component to it; a point system. In a nutshell, older nominations are worth more points than newer nominations. The top 3 participants who have the points will be awarded the Golden, Silver, or Bronze Wikipedia Puzzle Piece Trophy, respectively.
 * Unlike the December 2013 Backlog Drive, earning an additional barnstar if you reached your goal has been removed.
 * The allowance to have insufficient reviews has been lowered to 2 before being disqualified.
 * An exception to the rule that all reviews must be completed before the deadline has been created.

Also, something that I thought I would share with all of you is that we raised $20.88 (USD) for the WMF in the December 2013 drive. It may not sound like a lot but considering that that was raised just because we reviewed articles, I would say that's pretty good! With that success, pledges can be made for the upcoming drive if you wish.

More info regarding the drive and full descriptions regarding the changes to this drive can be found on the the drive page. If you have any questions, feel free to leave a message on the drive talk page.

I look forward to your participation and hope that because of it, some day the backlog will be gone!

GAN March 2014 Backlog Drive
The March 2014 GAN Backlog Drive has begun and will end on April 1, 2014! Sent by Dom497 on behalf of MediaWiki message delivery (talk) 21:01, 1 March 2014 (UTC)

WikiProject Good articles Future GAN Backlog Drive
Hello everyone! Hope you've all been having a great summer!

TheQ Editor recently proposed the idea of having another Backlog Drive in either September/October or November/December of this year. For those of you who have participated in the past two drives you know I was the one who organized them, however, come September, this will be my most important year in school so I will not be able to coordinate this drive (if it happens). TheQ Editor has volunteered to be a coordinator for the drive. If any of you would like to co-coordinator, please notify TheQ Editor on his talk page.

If you would be interested in participating in a Backlog Drive sometime before the end of this year, please notify TheQ Editor. Also, make sure to specify what month(s) work best for you.

At the time this message was sent out, the backlog was at 520 nominations. Since May, the backlog has been steadily increasing and we are currently near an all time high. Even though the backlog will not disappear over one drive, this drive can lead to several others which will (hopefully) lead to the day where there is no longer a backlog.

As always, the more participants, the better, and everyone is encouraged to participate!

GA Cup
Hello everyone! We hope you have all been having a great summer!

As we all know, the recent GAN Backlog Drives have not had any big impact on the backlog. Because of that, me (Dom497), Figureskatingfan, and TheQ Editor have worked on an idea that could possibly finally put a dent into the massive backlog. Now, I will admit, the idea isn't entirely ours as we have took the general idea of the WikiCup and brought it over to WikiProject Good Articles. But anyways, here's what we have in mind:

For all of you that do not know what the WikiCup is, it is an annual competition between several editors to see who can get the most Good Articles, Featured Article's, Did You Know's, etc. Based of this, we propose to you the GA Cup. This competition will only focus on reviewing Good articles.

For more info on the proposal, click here. As a FYI, the proposal page is not what the final product will look like (if you do go ahead with this idea). It will look very similar to WikiCup's page(s).

The discussion for the proposal will take place here. Please let us know if you are interested, have any concerns, things to consider, etc.

--Dom497, Figureskatingfan, and TheQ Editor

ArbCom elections are now open!
Hi, You appear to be eligible to vote in the current Arbitration Committee election. The Arbitration Committee is the panel of editors responsible for conducting the Wikipedia arbitration process. It has the authority to enact binding solutions for disputes between editors, primarily related to serious behavioural issues that the community has been unable to resolve. This includes the ability to impose site bans, topic bans, editing restrictions, and other measures needed to maintain our editing environment. The arbitration policy describes the Committee's roles and responsibilities in greater detail. If you wish to participate, you are welcome to review the candidates' statements and submit your choices on the voting page.
