I'm going to conduct the review of this article. I have a vague recollection of this episode. Probably if Community had started a year earlier, I would have remembered it better for having one of their cast in it! Anyway, I'll add notes as I come across them.

  • More an MOS than a Good Article requirement, but you don't need to add links in image captions that you've already included in the article text. So you should remove the link to Gillian Jacobs underneath her image.
  • Themes and analysis: The first sentence needs a citation directly after it as it contains a quote. I presume it'll just be a repeat of citation #8.
  • Ratings: "as it was the series' highest rating since the season's second episode" - perhaps worth a slight reword as I wasn't sure on first readthrough whether you were referring to Fringe or House.
  • Reviews: Could you link "John Scott" to the appropriate subsection on the list of Fringe characters?
  • Reviews: Delink the second link to The Same Old Story.

Otherwise nothing really stands out as an issue, all the references are formatted in a similar manner and each meet the notability guildines. You've even formatted the A.V. Club with italics which is often missed. All good. Nice job! Miyagawa (talk) 10:53, 31 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Done done and done. Thanks so much for the review! Ruby 2010/2013 04:12, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Ok, let's run through the template then:

  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS for lead, layout, word choice, fiction, and lists):
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (reference section): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars, etc.:

    a (images are tagged and non-free content have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

So all good. Nice job, happy to pass this one as a GA. Miyagawa (talk) 10:46, 1 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
