Family Guy (season 5)

 * ''Nominator(s): Gage (talk), Pedro J.  the rookie

I am nominating this for featured list because I believe it was perfectly ready the last time around, and the only reason it, to my understanding, did not pass was because of the lack of reviewers either stating their support or opposition to the nomination. I hope you will consider it again, and I hope to address your concerns as best as possible. Gage (talk) 14:47, 3 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Support As far as I can tell, all previous concerns have been rectified, as well as my concerns. Thanks for being so prompt!  Jujutacular  T · C 19:56, 6 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Support This artical should have passed a time ago i support it. -- Pedro J. the rookie 19:44, 14 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment as a co-nominator, your support is taken as read. The Rambling Man (talk) 10:16, 16 April 2010 (UTC)


 * Support This list is very comprehensive and there doesn't seem to be any major problems with it. Good work! --haha169 (talk) 04:16, 21 April 2010 (UTC)


 *  Oppose  This was a quick glance, and I am concerned at the misleading referencing. Ref 49 does not reference the production code in any way, neither does Ref 51 or 53 I guess this is a trend. As an aside, ref 11 and 12 are also the same.Rambo's Revenge (talk)  22:41, 25 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Comment Fixed. Not sure why a vote of opposition was neccessary, when I could've just as easilly fixed it had it been brought to my attention. And I'm not sure how refs 11 and 12 are misleading simply because it is not linked to a web article. Both are quotes from the Family Guy Volume 5 DVD commentary. Gage (talk) 05:17, 26 April 2010 (UTC)
 * How do I know it is easily fixed? Production codes have been problematic in the past (trust me I was on the receiving end). They are not always easy to verify which is a key criteria (hence the oppose). Aditionally, I recall the directors prefering opposes to comments as it is difficult to assess the importance of a see of comment if they haven't been struck/capped. For the second bit, I actually misread 11 and 12 thinking they were identical refs duplicated unnecessarily. Is it worth adding the  field for these perhaps. Rambo's Revenge  (talk)  16:29, 27 April 2010 (UTC)
 * Okay, thank you. As for the quotes, I think what is currently present on the article is sufficient. Gage (talk) 20:30, 27 April 2010 (UTC)

 * There is absolutely no mention of any type of viewer figures/ratings. In my experience this is exceeding rare for a season list. Personally, I would be in favour of viewing figures for each episode like some other featured seasons lists . This information is available (e.g. http://abcmedianet.com/web/dnr/dispDNR.aspx?id=112106_06 9.3 million for Prick Up Your Ears] and the complete lack of viewership figures is the basis for this oppose.
 * Attempting to locate viewership ratings as far back as September 10, 2006, I was unable to locate any information from a reliable source. Viewership ratings as far back as that, which was the premiere episode for the season in that instance, are very difficult to locate, and would mostly rely upon possibly unreliable sources. Also, I'm not sure how the ABC Media source you provided would be for the episode that aired on that date, as it aired on Fox in its original airing, not on ABC. Maybe it was a syndicated episode, but why ABC would show Fox's ratings would be beyond me. Gage (talk) 01:49, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Medianet just gives the weeks ratings for all primetime programs. It is reliable, goes back enough, and has been used for FOX shows before. I know because I've used it in a FOX season FL. Rambo's Revenge (talk)</b>  07:18, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Alright, I have added viewership ratings information to the article. Thank you for providing me with that source, as I was able to also add that information to each of the season's episode articles. Gage (talk) 19:56, 1 May 2010 (UTC)
 * Rest looks good. Only other comment is on consistency: "Volume Five" (lead), "Volume 5" (caption), "volume 5" (reception). Can we have some consistency througout the article and the DVD release section please.
 * Done. Gage (talk) 01:35, 1 May 2010 (UTC)


 * Support My concerns handled. Bradjamesbrown (talk) 20:33, 30 April 2010 (UTC)
