Kath & Kim

This article has had major additions in the past few weeks and has attracted more attention from the Wikipedia community due to the announcement of a new season and a new channel in which the show is to be screnned. I know that references is one of the key points that needs to be improved and maybe some episode tables with pictures. Basicly I am asking for pointers for how to make this article a Good Article. Because this article is apart of WikiProject Australian Television, there is editors with an interest in the article to improve it. Thanks. --Lakeyboy 07:42, 6 April 2007 (UTC)

Per WP:LEAD, the lead should be a summary of the rest of the article - each big section in the article should be represented in a sentence or paragraph in the lead. "with Kim frequently occupying the house due to her rocky relationship with Brett (all of which is of Kim's own doing due to Kim's own snobbish and childish behaviour towards Brett as well as punishing Brett for perceived wrongs by leaving him to stay at Kath's place or giving Brett the cold shoulder)," this sounds too colloquial and possibly POV. If you want to get GA, you'll need more references, especially in the section that "sounds like a review". -Malkinann 22:33, 10 April 2007 (UTC)

You could also make a "Reception" section where you talk about reviews, ratings, and how Kath & Kim has seeped into the real world. All of this would have to be clearly cited, mind you. -Malkinann 03:21, 13 April 2007 (UTC)

The article introduction has now been re-written and I just want to get an update on if it better fits the GA requirements for an introduction. Does it meet the requirements or what else needs to be included to / excluded from the introduction. Thanks. --Lakeyboy 04:27, 16 April 2007 (UTC)

It's a bit running-on in places, and I'm not sure if Fountain Gate needs to be there. In the whole article, you need to italicise instances of the series name, and decide whether the name's Kath and Kim or Kath & Kim. In the Cast section, I'd honestly suggest that you spin it off into a List of Kath & Kim characters, and have only Kath, Kim, Sharon, Kel, Brett and Epps on the main page. You could replace the big list of celebs with "Many Australian celebrities and comedians have had bit parts on Kath and Kim. (See List of Kath & Kim characters)". -Malkinann 06:51, 18 April 2007 (UTC)
