Trivia cleanup

[edit]

I removed a number of items from the "cultural references" and "trivia" sections. Many of these are guesses as to the inspiration for certain things in the show; others were just irrelevant (e.g. the Comic Book Guy's reference to the Fortress of Solitude -- that may be relevant to Comic Book Guy, but not important here). A couple that seemed strongly likely I left in with tags requesting citations. Mangojuicetalk 14:27, 12 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Why does Commi-Nazi redirect here, was it some kind of insult mentioned in the episode? Should be mentioned then, or the confusing forward should be removed. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.137.207.191 (talk) 08:19, 20 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Yeah that's right, an episode that aired in 1998 referenced a campaign that began in 2000. -- Scorpion0422 00:50, 21 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

GAR urgently

[edit]

This article has aged terribly, just saying that it has four references says it all, and it's not just that there are many sections without references, it is very short (even knowing that it is a one-episode article) and the reception is inefficient. I see that this article was approved in 2007, a time when the requirements were different and that is why it has not aged well. That's why I want you to do a GAR because you don't meet the criteria. And finally I call @Masem: (who was the one who approved the article), to see if he can solve these problems. 2801:1CA:E:1411:E1FE:95C:4D29:45A6 (talk) 19:18, 15 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Although user @AirshipJungleman29: has made corrections to the article, it still has problems. First, what I said about the four references could be included from many other sources. This also harms the length of the article as an example: the "Reception" only has one review, insufficient when we talk about an episode of the Simpsons, although I know that it is not an episode, I remember that that does not justify its size, please new the GAR. 2801:1CA:E:1411:39F3:EA25:FFA9:63BD (talk) 19:59, 14 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Add the sources yourself or start the GAR. I don't see the need. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 17:38, 22 May 2024 (UTC)[reply]

I'm putting it back as GAR because the article's problems haven't been fixed. First, as I said, it only has four references, which is insufficient for this type of article (and even though it's an episode of The Simpsons). For example, the article The Bob Next Door only has seven references, but it's very complete and covers the whole topic, which doesn't happen with King of the Hill. The "Reception" section only has one review, which is very insufficient. Otherwise, this article should no longer be considered GA. 2801:1CA:E:1411:62C:D6C:9D57:C071 (talk) 21:06, 29 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]
So start the GAR yourself. ~~ AirshipJungleman29 (talk) 11:07, 2 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
