  • Wikilink Rainier Wolfcastle in lead
  • You can remove Canada in the lead (I think most readers know where Toronto is; wikilink the city for those less informed) ;)
  • Wikilink characters in polt (Homer etc)
  • The plot seems a little disconnected (why did Homer steal the Olympic torch?) The section could use some expansion (it's still below the basic word limits)
  • "even though it Canada is not mentioned"
  • "features the Simpsons first travel to Canada" -> the Simpsons'
  • "It was written by Frink and, according to Selman, the line became very popular with the staff..." I think you should change the first "It" to "the line" and change second "the line" to "it"
  • Make sure sentences with quotes end with citations
  • Refs 2 and 10: page number?
  • Remove caps on ref 8

On hold for seven days. Thanks, Ruby2010 comment! 21:53, 26 July 2011 (UTC) reply

Looks good except: Refs 2 and 10: page number? Ruby2010 comment! 16:25, 30 July 2011 (UTC) reply
The refs were added by another editor. I've asked him if he could provide with the page numbers, but he hasn't responded yet, so there's really nothing I can do for now unfortunately. Queenieacoustic ( talk) 21:50, 2 August 2011 (UTC) reply
User:Scorpion0422 likely didn't include the page numbers because they weren't available. Page numbers are not always available on Newsbank. And besides, page numbers are optional per Wikipedia:Citing sources. Theleftorium (talk) 23:00, 2 August 2011 (UTC) reply
Well, I'm satisfied then. Pass for GA. Nice work, Ruby2010 comment! 03:06, 3 August 2011 (UTC) reply
