Lisa the Skeptic
Self-nomination. Lisa the Skeptic was passed as a Good Article a month ago, and had a Peer Review where some minor corrections were made. I will do my best to address points that come up in the FAC discussion. Thanks for taking a chance to look at the article. Cirt 17:19, 1 December 2007 (UTC).
 * See WP:ALSO regarding portal placement. Sandy Georgia  (Talk) 17:30, 1 December 2007 (UTC)
 * ✅ - Moved the portal to the see also section, thanks for this point. Cirt 17:39, 1 December 2007 (UTC).


 * Support. Good, concise, well-sourced and well-written. Seems a little short for an FA but, after all, we're dealing with a television series episode and we can't expect to have some sort of dissertation-level piece on it. Anyway, that's what happens when you keep all the trivia out of it (speaking of which, I had added that connection to the Garcia Marquez story and while I can understand keeping it out, I can't believe someone besides me hasn't noticed. It's just too much of a coincidence). Daniel Case 16:43, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
 * Thanks for the comments about the article. I had moved that info about Gabriel García Márquez's short story "A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings" to the talk page, because it was unsourced.  But if you find any sources that discuss it in relation to the episode, please don't hesitate to add it back.  I agree that it is interesting, but certainly in a WP:FA the best place for it is on the talk page as a note to other editors until sources can be found.  Cirt 16:48, 2 December 2007 (UTC).
 * ✅ - Added this entry to the See also section at Lisa the Skeptic. I see a similar entry exists the other-way-around at A Very Old Man with Enormous Wings, and I think this is a reasonable solution until more sources are found, to put this into the main article text somewhere. Cirt 17:04, 2 December 2007 (UTC).
 * ✅ - Even better, found a source, added it to the article text, and removed it from the See also section. Cirt 17:22, 2 December 2007 (UTC).


 * Support I made a few minor edits for things like spelling, but otherwise very well written, well referenced and informative. I love how concise articles about TV episodes are. --Brandt Luke Zorn 23:07, 2 December 2007 (UTC)
