Improvement to the article

I think some of the issues with the article are now resolved. Are all three of the issues listed still present in the article? If so can they maybe be described in more detail so they can be addressed? —Preceding unsigned comment added by Tikopowii (talk • contribs) 21:19, 9 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

Last Name Verification

I've added ^{[citation needed]} to all the family last names. Most of the cited last names have never been mentioned on the show. Lily has never been called 'Lily Pritchett-Tucker', for example, and Jay's family has never been called the 'Pritchett-Delgado' family. Normally this wouldn't matter, but considering that two of these families don't have any traditional naming styles, these assumptions can't be made. Also, they're a little sexist and unequal, when they're compared to each other. Claire, according to the article, took her husband's name, and her family is called the 'Dunphies'. But Cam and Mitchell have kept their names and are called the 'Pritchett and Tucker' family.theBOBbobato (talk) 14:58, 22 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

'Province of' Quebec

In Dede Pritchett's article, it is said that she lives in 'The Province' of Quebec. This is not necessary, since the city of Quebec is never simply called 'Quebec', but 'Quebec City'. While, in French, the city is sometimes called only Québec, this custom doesn't apply to English because this is the English Wikipedia, and Quebec isn't even written as it is in French, with an accent. Normally this wouldn't matter at all, but someone obviously cares about this triviality and is reverting edits to the line. Please, use the discussion page.theBOBbobato (talk) 20:52, 23 April 2010 (UTC)[reply]

I believe the episode where Lily says "mommy" expresses that she learned the word from the doll and not that they mistook the dolls words for Lily's.
