[edit] Good job

This is definitely one of the better episode pages. If they were all this good (or even most of them) there probably wouldn't be talk of large-scale deletions.--Anchoress 10:19, 18 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] GA on hold

I've placed this article's Good Article nomination on hold. A quick review of the page shows that the article lacks any citations or listed references. (There are two "external links," but these are not the same thing.) This alone is enough to cause it to fail the Good Article criteria. However, I think this could be addressed reasonably quickly, and a hold gives you seven days to do so.

Two other areas you might want to look at: 1) Are you certain that the image, tagged as promotional, is in fact a promotional image from a press kit? If so, more detail about its source would be appropriate. If not, then it might not qualify as "fair use." Please check carefully; this is a potential disqualification. 2) There's a lot of plot summary and trivia here, and not all that much information about the real-world impact. Please review the guidelines for writing about fiction and consider whether more "out-of-universe" information might be added.

All that said, the episode summary is quite well-written, and you're definitely on the right track. I'll be watching this talk page for some indication that the concerns above have been addressed, or you could contact me directly at my talk page, and I'll be happy to give the article a review.

Since it's now been a week and the citation concern has not been addressed, I'm failing this article. Please feel free to renominate it once sources are in place. It's very well-written, but without the citations, it cannot pass. Expansion on "out-of-universe" matters would be helpful as well, though lack of that information might not prevent earning GA status considering the topic of this article.
