The Price Is Right (U.S. game show)

 * • Watch article reassessment page
 * Result: Delist: Article has been listed at GAR for over a month. Actionable and obvious concerns have been presented, but have not been addressed within requested waiting period or the ca. 3 weeks thereafter.  Two editors (nominator and a commenter) have expressed explicit preference for delisting and two others recognize the existence of concerns.  No support for retaining GA status has been presented.

This article fails several GA criteria and I honestly do not see how it passed GA the first time. It fails criteria 1 in that it is not very well-written and it has multiple MOS violations. It uses excessive free images that do not add illustrative points to the article, only acting as decoration. This violates criteria 6. The biggest violation, however, is criteria 2, which is that "It is factually accurate and verifiable." This article has huge sections of unsourced material and it is full of fancruft. It also violates criteria 2c in that it contains quite a bit of original research. I do not believe these issues can be fixed quickly, therefore I feel it should be delisted as its GA status is making it a bad example for other game show articles.

 * Delist due to criteria 1 and 2 concerns. Parts of the article are under-referenced. With some work the article can be brought up to GA standards and re-nominated at GAN. Majoreditor (talk) 22:06, 19 February 2008 (UTC)
 * Request a week. I was a major contributor to bringing this to GA status when it was fairly crufy and trivia-weighted. I was hoping for reassessment a while ago. I kind of strayed away from this article, allowing others to make some contributions. Unfortunately, it's gaining weight rather than being refined. Delisting would not be the end of the world, but let's re-evaluate in a week for progress.&mdash;Twigboy (talk) 02:54, 22 February 2008 (UTC)
 * OK. Majoreditor (talk) 17:09, 22 February 2008 (UTC)


 * Comment. A week has passed and changes have been made, but there are still many issues with this article. In addition to the above, the lead does not adequately summarize the article. Even though the article is about the U.S. version of the show and explicitly disambiguates this, I also believe that because this is the original version of the show, not discussing the fact that the show has spawned many successful international versions is a broadness issue.

 * I took another look at the article. It still has unresolved issues, per Geometry Guy. Majoreditor (talk) 03:18, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
 * As the initial requester of a reassessment, I also agree many issues remain after the requested week. AnmaFinotera (talk) 03:35, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
