American Idol

Is the rock 'n roll week edit okay now?

I Seek To Help & Repair! (talk) 00:51, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

No. There is already a set template established for the performance charts. Quit changing it. Gage (talk) 00:52, 6 May 2009 (UTC)

TX-14

Let me explain why I deleted TX-14 here, where I have more room. We're only including districts where the incumbent is or is considering retirement or where s/he may be in a competitive reelection. To determine how vulnerable an incumbent is to a potential or declared challenger we need a verifiable, non-partisan source saying that the incumbent may be vulnerable. For instance, regarding SC-04, we have a Politico page saying the incumbent, Bob Inglis, is vulnerable to a primary challenge. For RI-01 we have an article from The Hill saying that Congressman Patrick Kennedy may be vulnerable to a Republican challenger despite Kennedy representing a very Democratic district.

The problem with the source you provided is that it is not non-partisan, it's clearly pro- Ron Paul. If we had a source such as CQ or Politico saying Paul may be vulnerable to Jeffrey Cherry that would merit putting TX-14 on the 2008 House page. But since we don't, we have no reason to see Paul as vulnerable to a primary challenge. Just drawing a challenge isn't enough to warrant placing TX-14 on the page: we need a non-partisan source telling us that Paul may be in danger. This doesn't mean that Cherry won't become competitive or isn't already competitive, it just means that until we have a credible source saying Paul may be in danger, we shouldn't include TX-14.

I hope this made more sense than my other explanation did. If you have any questions about what I said or disagreements, please put them on the 2010 House Elections discussion page. CylonCAG (talk) 01:07, 13 May 2009 (UTC)

Orphaned non-free media (File:Homer Simpson.svg)

Thanks for uploading File:Homer Simpson.svg. The media description page currently specifies that it is non-free and may only be used on Wikipedia under a claim of fair use. However, it is currently orphaned, meaning that it is not used in any articles on Wikipedia. If the media was previously in an article, please go to the article and see why it was removed. You may add it back if you think that that will be useful. However, please note that media for which a replacement could be created are not acceptable for use on Wikipedia (see our policy for non-free media).

If you have uploaded other unlicensed media, please check whether they're used in any articles or not. You can find a list of 'image' pages you have edited by clicking on the "my contributions" link (it is located at the very top of any Wikipedia page when you are logged in), and then selecting "Image" from the dropdown box. Note that all non-free media not used in any articles will be deleted after seven days, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. Thank you. BJBot (talk) 05:27, 1 June 2009 (UTC)

Obama Timeline

Great work and additions. My hope is that you won't mind if I caution you to be brief and controlled in your descriptions, etc. It is a timeline which is intended to be a chronology of "He was here, He did that. He met her:then signed a bill into law.'" with as little commentary as possible. The wider the door to commentary gets, the more political POV's we will encounter as the Administration proceeds. So far, it has been understood. Again, great edits and photos. (Not to sure about Judge Sotomayor Mom comments)...Take Care....--Buster7 (talk) 01:58, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

Gage...not to crazy about "reset". It seems a bit jargoney. I'm gonna change to "restructure". HAGD.--Buster7 (talk) 13:08, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

That's fine, I put it in quotes because I had actually taken it from the CNN article that I added as a reference, and Secretary Clinton had used the exact word "reset" a few months ago in regards to Russian relations, but I see no problem in changing it to "restructure." Gage (talk) 13:15, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Yea, Gage. I see that now. If 'reset' becomes the active media word we can always change it back.--Buster7 (talk) 21:27, 8 July 2009 (UTC)

Continuous great work.--Buster7 (talk) 23:54, 24 September 2009 (UTC)

Offer Shlomi

You're right, it is. That's pretty weird... I always knew him as Vince Offer. I wonder why he goes by Vince? <>Multi-Xfer<> (talk) 05:45, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

I assume it is just a nickname he decided to give himself. Gage (talk) 06:04, 30 June 2009 (UTC)

Overlinked

I noticed you tagged the article Christina Tchen as overlinked. I routinely check this category, and so I noticed this. I must say I do not see any irrelevant links in this article. Nor does it seem overly linked to me. It might be that the problem is the other way around: that there should be more text in this article. Anyway, I'd like to ask you to reconsider, or to remove any links you deem superfluous yourself. Debresser (talk) 23:01, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Actually, I was referring to all of the redlinks within the article. Is that not the correct Template to use in that case? Gage (talk) 23:04, 1 July 2009 (UTC)

Did you read Wikipedia:Red link? Based on that, I would say that all redlinks in this article may be kept. I agree with you that is leaves to be desired from an estetic point of view, but I think they are all valid redlinks. Consequently, IMHO, this article is not overlinked. Debresser (talk) 00:20, 2 July 2009 (UTC)

Obama kids

Hello - I'll have to look for it - there were discussions about whether there should be a separate article(s) for the girls and it was decided that they didn't have independent notability, so were more appropriately handled as part of the family article. If you could hold off, I'll locate the discussions. You're of course welcome to discuss it, and if consensus has changed, that's fine - but please don't just reinstate. Thanks Tvoz/talk 06:44, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Here's the delete discussion (speedy delete, in fact) for an earlier version of an article about Malia - there may have been additional discussions as well. I'll take a look tomorrow. Tvoz/talk 06:51, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Right, I was aware of that discussion, and that consensus of deletion was made before Obama's election as president. Anyway, if there were any other discussions regarding the article more recently, I would be glad to have a look at those as well. Thanks again. Gage (talk) 06:59, 6 July 2009 (UTC)

Sotomayor Image

You're right it doesnt matter, I am sure the image will be replaced with her official supreme court portrait once it is taken anyway. -TriiipleThreat (talk) 16:30, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Hence the reason why I tentively readded her circuit court image, which I had previously removed. I think the circuit court image can suffice until her official Associate Justice portrait is released, so I will readd it now, unless you object. Gage (talk) 16:40, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

No objection here, happy editing. -TriiipleThreat (talk) 17:11, 8 August 2009 (UTC)

Miss Universe svg map

Hi! It's not that I have an issue against svg format. I just prefer using the png version for the Miss Universe 2009 results map for the sake of consistency--all results map since 1952, as well as for the other major pageants, are not just in png formats, but also use the world map version with connectors. Hence, if svg format is the preferred version of this great editor, then kindly backtrack all the remaining maps just for the pageant maps to hold the same format.

Family guy does not have season DVD releases and the seasons are spread out on multiple volumes. For the case of season 5, it was released on volume5 and the second part on volume 6.

Mark Sanford on 2012 Republican Primary Page?

I think the Sanford debate will never end, lol.

The sources I added are less than 6 months. I agreed to take down Ensign because no one is talking him in conjunction 2012, but why are people still talking about Sanford in conjunction 2012?

Hi, I noticed you uploaded an image of the design changes of Peter Griffin, I have two questions I would like to ask you. This "pilot" episode you took the first screenshot from, I've never heard/read about it, do you have some information about? Also, I noticed in the image description that you used the Family Guy Volume 1 DVD as a source, do you own this DVD? Because its special features might help expand the Peter Griffin article's Development section. Thanks.--Music26/11 11:20, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

You can actually watch the pilot episode on YouTube by simply searching for "Family Guy pilot," and you should be able to find it. And I don't have the volume one DVD, sorry. Gage (talk) 11:23, 31 October 2009 (UTC)

What do you need help with? I'm not happy with any of the pages just being merged. CTJF83 chat 22:30, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Specifically, adding references to all the articles currently tagged with the Template:Notability banner. This includes a majority of the season 3 articles. For a rough example, see this as a very basic guideline. And for the articles that were merged (without any consensus whatsoever), adding references, and reverting the merges by Feydey should help to establish notability. Gage (talk) 22:40, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

Ya, an admin should know better than to just merge with no consensus and no real reason. I'll get to work on them later tonight. CTJF83 chat 22:44, 1 November 2009 (UTC)

List of recurring characters in Family Guy‎

Do you really think we need this page? It looks incomplete as it stops at D. CTJF83 chat 07:38, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

I think the article can be greatly improved, redirecting the article as opposed to expanding it simply because it looks incomplete is wrong, in my opinion. Gage (talk) 20:24, 10 December 2009 (UTC)

How do you separate a character from a recurring one? CTJF83 chat 22:29, 11 December 2009 (UTC)

A recurring character is a supporting character, such as a coworker, a family friend, local celebrities, extended relatives and townspeople. With most of these characters as one-time jokes, a number of them have garnered expanded roles and have subsequently starred in future episodes, as well as in their own episodes. Death, Consuela and Angela are just a few examples of this. Gage (talk) 05:36, 12 December 2009 (UTC)

Hi. I've been looking over your contributions and you certainly seem to do good work here. I've gone ahead and issued you rollback rights. Please be careful with the privilege - it can be easily lost. I recommend you carefully read up on the what you should do and should not do with rollback, then practice here before using it. I'm confident you'll use it wisely. If for some reason you don't want it, let me know and I'll revert. You may wish to display {{User rollback}} on your user page.

The other thing, is you really should start archiving this talk page. It's getting rather long and unweildy.

Kentucky senate race

If a primary election has two or more candidates who have photos, than there is no reason not to have it.--Jerzeykydd (talk) 12:36, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

No other Senate article has photos. It is not necessary, especially since you continually removed the three minor candidate's photos and names from the Republican candidates section, to have photos. It is irrelevent. Gage (talk) 20:47, 30 May 2010 (UTC)

Quagmire's Dad

Hi, I am reviewing your GA nomination and have made a few comments at Talk:Quagmire's Dad/GA1. I think it is a fine article, but I felt the lead needed a little more. Please feel free to change what I added. Best wishes, Xtzou (Talk) 17:06, 31 May 2010 (UTC)

Election result tables in United States Senate election in California, 2010

Hi GageSkidmore! It appears that you have reverted the formating for the primary result tables at United States Senate election in California, 2010. You have replaced Template:Election box begin no party no change, which is intended for use in non-partisan and primary elections, with Template:Election box begin no change, which is intended only for partisan elections. It doesn't really make sense to use Template:Election box begin no change because there is no need to list which party each candidate belongs to in a primary election. I understand that some other articles may use the formating that you prefer, but I feel that is both irrelevant and erroneous since the other formating is better suited for this type of election. – Zntrip 23:46, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

Elections held in California are no different from the rest of the country. It is irrelevent whether the party is shown or not, however, every other article in relation to the 2010 midterm elections, besides those held in California apparently, use the format that I have attempted and reattempted to include in the article. Ignoring that fact does not rationalize your explanation for inclusion of the supposed "non-partisan" format. Gage (talk) 23:52, 9 June 2010 (UTC)

I'm just saying that it doesn't make sense to list the party name five times in a row when its a given that all the candidates belong to the same party. It's redundant. Just because the other template is used in other articles is irrelevant; did it ever occur to you that perhaps the format of the other articles can be changed? Other than the fact that Template:Election box begin no change is used elsewhere, is there any other reason that it should be used in place of Template:Election box begin no party no change? – Zntrip 00:07, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

If you want to use the no party template in the article, then fine. My opinion of the matter is still unchanged. Gage (talk) 00:12, 10 June 2010 (UTC)

Partial Terms

I don't actually read The Mail on Sunday because it is an organ of racism and social malnutrition, but I'd guess the review is out of five stars. It's not really a "review" so much as a "pick of the day" thing. The full text is: "Family Guy 10PM, BBC3 **** / Two more new episodes of Seth MacFarlane's crazy, frequently brilliant animated comedy, opening with Stewie (left) taking drastic measures to get on TV." I just added it because otherwise the article won't have a reception section until the DVD comes out in the States. Bradley0110 (talk) 12:12, 27 June 2010 (UTC)

Spies Reminiscent of Us

Hi! I am wanting to clear this article from the Requests page and was wondering if you want the whole article done, or just the marked section? I find the plot section intimidating in its length and would not know how to trim it effectively as I have not seen the episode and do not know which events were the most important. I will go ahead with the marked section for now. --Diannaa ^TALK 02:42, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

Well, I think the whole article would be most beneficial. If you cut something important out, I'll try to readd it, as I am very familiar with the episode. Gage (talk) 04:32, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

OK, I got through it. If you could explain the last bit: How does "Thriller" help Ackroyd hack into the missle guidance system? --Diannaa ^TALK 21:10, 29 June 2010 (UTC)

If I remember correctly, it's the code used to disarm the missile system. Gage (talk) 02:37, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

OK. I incorporated it in a general way as I don't know what the code was exactly. I like the way it reads now anyway so I think its ok the way it is. Good luck with your GA nomination. :-)) --Diannaa ^TALK 03:07, 30 June 2010 (UTC)

Re: Family Guy

I'll be happy to do the reviews, I do like Family Guy, though I haven't seen it for a while, and I actually gotta do some reviews, cause I got a bunch of nominations over there. Example—for the note on my talkpage—when I put "No Chris Left Behind" on hold, that means not to leave a message that you're done with my concerns, cause I add the reviews to my watchlist, and I see the activity of what's going on. But, since you left me that one message regarding the reviews, it's fine cause we talking about the same thing, so. ;) Also, if you could review "Kidney Now!" it would be most appreciated, cause like you, I'm trying to get the episode's season to GT status and that's the last episode I need for it to be promoted. --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 18:15, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Thank you. I've went ahead and reviewed the episode that you noted. Gage (talk) 18:43, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

FYI, so you know, and not that I would bring into question either of your reviews or submissions, cause I know you are both great editors, and review fairly, but someone brought up a conflict of interest when User:Qst and myself used to review each others GACs. Just a thought. CTJF83 chat 19:20, 1 July 2010 (UTC)

Road to the multiverse

Hi

For now I have just edited the lead which you can see here and compare before and after versions to see my changes [1].

If you agree with the edits and general style I will continue with the rest of the article.

Do not feel bad if you think my edits were not along the style you wished: simply revert and ask someone else to have a look. I will not be offended :¬)

thanks Chaosdruid (talk) 18:49, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Seems fine to me. Feel free to continue. Gage (talk) 21:39, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Ok no probs - i am just about to watch Futurama though and having a little problem with another editor so maybe in 40 mins or so ? Chaosdruid (talk) 22:29, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

Sure. Gage (talk) 22:38, 3 July 2010 (UTC)

The second section of the plot was a little tricky to say the least ! Dog Brian and Human stewie I have tried to put as just Brian and Stewie to cut down on the confusing amount of Dog and Human references. The same is true for the universes and at the end of the second para I have used "original universe" to try and differentiate.

Most of it was commas which are normally used to add extra info not needed in the sentence. Using that rule it is easiest to read the sentence and skip the bit in commas. If the sentence makes sense then the commas are ok, and if it doesn't we try to rearrange the sentence and use a few commas as possible. I hope I didn't do too badly on that score :¬)

K - finished. Have a look and tell me if you think it's ok. I tried to save it often so that you can revert anything you deem to have changed too much or made it incomprehensible :¬)

Chaosdruid (talk) 01:22, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

The only mistake I was able to spot was where you changed a sentence to say that Seth Green executive produced the Robot Chicken sequence in the episode, when what I was really saying was that he is the executive producer for the actual Robot Chicken show. Other than that, some of the sentences do seem like run-ons without commas, so I think a second opinion would be beneficial. Or if the sentences can be better rearranged, feel free to take a shot at it, I'll try to correct anything if I find something like what I just mentioned. Gage (talk) 01:27, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

Sorry I didnt see your message till after I posted here. The large amount of commas that were in there were more like a speech where one may need to breath between carrying on. It is true that most people seem to think that short sentences are the only thing peoples brains can cope with - maybe thats true lol but to me there are none that are too long.

The Seth Green thing I understand, I think that as you had already mentioned he was the prod of RobotChicken may have been enough, but maybe you could add a little more to the sentence (I assume it was the one in the Cultural references section ?) to point that out again

Chaosdruid (talk) 01:36, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

Ah sorry - I just looked at the diffs and I admit complete stupidity in that edit - I did make him into the producer lol - apologies for that Chaosdruid (talk) 01:39, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

No problem. I asked for a second opinion, so hopefully they'll take a look at the article and fix anything else, in regards to the commas, which I can see why some should have been removed. If you know anyone willing to take a look at the article, I'd appreciate it if you could get their opinion on the article, as I am hoping to get it to FA status after the peer review is complete. Gage (talk) 01:42, 4 July 2010 (UTC)

Hey, I saw your request on my talk page and I looked at the article a bit. Did the 2007–2008 Writers Guild of America strike affect the sixth or seventh season? The lead says the sixth and the Production and development section says the seventh season. Just wanted some clarification.Derild4921☼ 15:33, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

Well, it affected both actually, as the sixth season was cut short (and not because their weren't anymore episodes to air), but the seventh season was essentially the conclusion to the sixth season production line. And the eighth season began anew. Gage (talk) 15:37, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

FG FT

Do you need me to watch the commentaries (if there are some), or did you do that?

Meet the Quagmires:

All the Back to the Future references are unsourced.

Also imdb is not a valid reference for Kenny Loggin's song.

Boys Do Cry:

Is the explanation of Stewie throwing up the wine important?

I think "Brian later gets a gun under Texas state law at a liquor store, while buying a bottle of Jack Daniels. Throwing away the gun, it goes off, exciting Brian. He shoots the gun in the air five more times before the Super Devil falls dead to the ground in front of him, with a pool of blood forming around the body. " is probably irrelevant to the plot

Not sure the ending, about Peter criticizing people who criticize Family Guy, while funny, is not really important to the plot.

Should DVD info be in the Reception section, instead of Production?

No Meals on Wheels:

Only concern is, as with above, if DVDs should go to Reception.

I made minor adjustments on all 3, but want to discuss these with you before I changed them. Let me know if I need to watch the commentaries. CTJF83 chat 18:13, 7 July 2010 (UTC)

I already watched them, and wasn't able to get much out of them. The only article I've concentrated on expanding so far was No Meals on Wheels because it just happened to be on Adult Swim last night. Pretty sure Boys Do Cry is on tonight's and I'll try to get the article put together a little better. And the DVD info should stay in the production section.

And as for the references in the cult ref section of Meet the Quagmires, I had nothing to do with it being unsourced, but that episode is on tomorrow I believe, and I wanted to just start from scratch. Gage (talk) 02:00, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

Ok, that's fine, I'll help clean all 3 up. CTJF83 chat 19:11, 8 July 2010 (UTC)

To quote C-SPAN's own copyright policy, "Although C-SPAN is the only news media organization that regularly televises the legislative proceedings of the U.S. House and U.S. Senate, it does not hold a copyright in that video coverage. That government-produced video is in the public domain which means that it belongs to the American people and may be used without restrictions of any kind." Regardless of what they state on their page, no one can unilaterally withdraw media from the public domain. harej 05:55, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

Pictures

Superb job on the Comic-Con pictures. I was interested in going this year, but didn't get a ticket before they sold out. Of course, had I known they were going to have an Expendables panel, I think I would have tried a lot harder. I'll shoot for next year when Expendables 2 comes out. Anyway, nice work on the new images. --Happy editing! Nehrams2020 (talk • contrib) 05:19, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Just noticed that three articles I wrote (Peter's Progress, The Juice Is Loose and Long John Peter) are good articles. I just didn't think they were worthy of being good articles, so I never nominated them myself. Thanks for nominating them ! :) --Pancake (talk) 16:02, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

Thanks again for taking pictures of the Simpsons panel. They are awesome! :) Do you have a list of all the Simpsons-related ones? Theleftorium ^(talk) 13:44, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

What exactly are you referring to when you say a list of all the-Simpsons related ones? Unfortunately, every year they seem to think 50 minutes of mostly uninformative Q&A is the most entertaining, so this year's panel once again consisted of Groening, Al Jean, Matt Selman, and Mike B. Anderson, as it was last year. So those are the only people I got. Gage (talk) 21:41, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

Hey just noticed that you created the Road to episodes artical, i want to say thanks a a fellow Fg contributor as i am a fan of the series of episodes and no one out of the FG group nacepted it as a series as the treehouse of horror, i would like to now if in the future you wish to get it to a GA as i have some info on the series. --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 21:51, 31 July 2010 (UTC)

hEY this is an idea for the fuyere, futere ok, dose Fg pardoying films count as a hallmark, becuase in an interiew with macfarlanne he said that he was intrested in parodying raiders of the lost ark and wrath of khan. --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 09:55, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

No, I don't think that would count, as that bridge has yet to be crossed. Consideing the only series they've seriously parodied are the Star Wars films, I don't think it can be considered a hallmark. Especially since Robot Chicken has accomplished the same thing. Gage (talk) 10:03, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Could you get on the Simpsons IRC chat thing though real quick? Gage (talk) 10:05, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

The java thing. --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 11:19, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Also its for the futere, so yeah i now its not good now but if they do make indy jones and star trek things it would count so im saying for the futree. --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 11:27, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Yes, the Java thing. And that sounds good to me. Gage (talk) 11:36, 1 August 2010 (UTC)

Hey gage would it be a bad idea to make an artical for the FG pilot. --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 14:20, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

I'd only support that if there was the strong potential of getting it to GA status. I've considered doing that for a while now, though. Gage (talk) 14:23, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

And looking at your sandbox, it just seems to be a carbon copy of Death Has a Shadow, which I'm sure would result in the article being nominated for merging into the Death Has a Shadow article anyway. Gage (talk) 15:02, 3 August 2010 (UTC)

I think it is a great improvement. I moved Povenmire's photo down a few paragraphs though, as it was a little bit crowded being right next to MacFarlane's, but do feel free to add it to the actual article, as it may better help distinguish it as the hallmark that it is. Gage (talk) 13:15, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Please wait before nominating even more articles. I don't even think Business Guy should have been nominated yet. Simply listing the casting director, the producers, etc. does not create an intriguing production section. That is what the DVD commentary is for, if it is available, and that's what interviews about the episode is for. Please wait a while before nominating any more articles.

I do not think a peer review is necessary.

Alaska 2010 Gov Race

Do you have a source saying Berowitz won? According to Politico(who gets it's projection's from the AP), no winner has been projected yet, at the moment I am writing it. And the reason I bring up Politico is because as you more then likely know, that where the returns are coming from.

Certainly. I was completely and totally unaware of this approaching distinction, and I am very glad to have received this honor.

Good article reassessment/Hell Comes to Quahog/1

Hi, I just wanted to let you know that I undid your closing of the discussion at Wikipedia:Good article reassessment/Hell Comes to Quahog/1 because per the instructions at Wikipedia:Good article reassessment, "discussions which have lasted more than 4 weeks can be closed with no consensus". Although the article was listed more than four weeks ago, the reassessment discussion was started less than four weeks ago.--BelovedFreak 19:58, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Also, although there don't seem to be any particular instructions about who may or may not close the discussion, given that it's not a clear consensus, it might be better if someone without a vested interest on the outcome closed it. Just a thought... (I wouldn't close it either) --BelovedFreak 20:01, 30 August 2010 (UTC)

Articles for deletion nomination of List of Conan episodes

I have nominated List of Conan episodes, an article that you created, for deletion. I do not think that this article satisfies Wikipedia's criteria for inclusion, and have explained why at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/List of Conan episodes. Your opinions on the matter are welcome at that same discussion page; also, you are welcome to edit the article to address these concerns. Thank you for your time.

Question

Do ytou think it would be a bad idea to make a Quahog artical, comparing it to Springfield (The Simpsons). --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 23:30, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

It's been attempted in the past, including by myself, and I would oppose its creation. Gage (talk) 23:39, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

You have how did it finish up being, and why? --<fon color="Orange">Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 02:26, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

I never saved it, I was just toying with it in preview mode, and decided against creating it, based on the AfD, or whatever it was, of the article. Gage (talk) 02:28, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

I am atempting to get it at par with SPringfieled you can see on one of my sandboxes the version i made put now i am not sure to even publish it. --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 02:37, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

I am also intrested in helping you get FG episodes to FA(fact i was gonna ask ya if you wanted to get to FLC in about 2 weeks) so if i can help out just tell me. --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 02:58, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

I would still oppose its creation. For now. In a couple years, when it becomes more distinct, like Springfield is, having existed for twenty seasons, then it can be created. I'm not saying we need to wait another decade, but just when it becomes a larger part of the series' distinction. It'd be sort of like creating an article for Stoolbend, Virginia or Langley Falls, Virginia. Gage (talk) 03:00, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Maybe wait until the movie comes out? --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 03:05, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

If it is as relevant as Springfield was in The Simpsons' movie. Gage (talk) 03:06, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

Hope so anyway back to the question of the episodes. --Pedro J. ^{the rookie} 03:10, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

You don't just decide to try to get an article to FA... Information has to be made available in great quantity. Partial Terms of Endearment and Extra Large Medium have potential, but neither have been released on DVD as of yet. Gage (talk) 03:13, 4 September 2010 (UTC)

fg episode list

What is the advantage of having the main episode list NOT link to the season pages? It just makes sure everything is correct between the two, and it is easier to spot errors/vandalism, as well as making it easier for edits. Grande13 (talk) 13:34, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

Your claim that it is easier to spot errors and vandalism is irrelevent. There have been no difficulties in monitoring either. Additionally, multiple users at FLC have requested that a ratings column be added to the season eight article, as the information is readily available. This information is not available for most of the early seasons, and would make the list inconsistent. The article is fine the way it is. Gage (talk) 20:24, 16 November 2010 (UTC)

the ratings info can go at the bottom of the season page then to fix that situation. Please dont revert main list until a discussion is had.Grande13 (talk) 05:00, 17 November 2010 (UTC)

"Road to the Multiverse" is the first episode of the eighth season of the animated comedy series Family Guy. Directed by Greg Colton and written by Wellesley Wild, the episode originally aired on Fox in the United States on September 27, 2009. In "Road to the Multiverse", two of the show's main characters, baby Stewie and anthropomorphic dog Brian, who are voiced by series creator Seth MacFarlane (pictured), use an "out-of-this-world" remote control to travel through a series of various parallel universes. They eventually end up in a world where dogs rule and humans obey. This causes Brian to become reluctant to return home to his own universe, and he ultimately ends up breaking the remote, much to the dismay of Stewie, who soon seeks a replacement. The "Road to" episodes which have aired throughout various seasons of Family Guy were inspired by the Road to... comedy films starring Bing Crosby, Bob Hope and Dorothy Lamour, though this episode was not originally conceived as a "Road to" show. Critical responses to the episode were mostly positive; critics praised its storyline, numerous cultural references, and its use of various animation styles. (more...)
