[edit] Older comments

People keep adding that the Sky One banning of this episode had something to do with the 1996 Dunblane massacre. I haven't been able to find a source for this, though - the official Sky One statement at the time simply said the episode content was 'too strong'. Besides, Dunblane was over a year and a half ago by then, and by the time it was eventually shown on Sky it was almost ten years ago. It doesn't make sense, anyway - Homer doesn't shoot any kids or anything (or anyone at all). So if you want to add the mention of the Dunblane shootings back in, please add a source.

[edit] Quotes

i'm going to delete Willie saying "They call this a soccer riot?" and the Scottish men starting the riot is a reference to soccer hooliganism in Great Britain. because it has no merit- it plays on stereotypes and doesn't say why it makes reference to this. it appears that someone associated football with hooliganism and therefore linked them here with no proof.

No, I don't think it would be. Wikipedia is not a place for information, and the guns in the gunshop are too trivial, and not what the episode is well known for. TheBlazikenMaster 00:22, 29 September 2007 (UTC)

[edit] GA review

  • "This was the first episode to be executively produced by Mike Scully."
    • Already was done.
      • I mean, executively is the wrong word. "Executive produced" is proper grammar. Alientraveller 15:55, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Swartzwelder on the commentary is more relevant to his article.

    • I don't know, but I'll remove it for now. Gran2 15:26, 27 October 2007 (UTC)

Pass. Alientraveller 16:14, 27 October 2007 (UTC)
