Does anyone know more about the song? Who wrote, was it written for the Simpsons or is it even a "cover"? I think that information would be interesting for the article. -- Euro Mok ( talk) 16:30, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Hi, I am reviewing this article for GA. I have made some copy editing changes. Please feel free to revert any with which you do not agree. The episode is very interesting because of all the cultural tie-ins. At this time, I think the article is fine. I am unclear about the status of the images. The one Fair use is justified, I believe. What about the images of the writers, since they are still alive?
I especially want to make sure that the copy editing changes I made are ok.

I removed the Carpenters reference and their photo. This song wasn't by them, and their version was a cover. Though originally performed by a less well-known band, Herman's Hermits made this popular almost a decade before the Carpenters. PacificBoy 19:27, 14 May 2013 (UTC)
I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Colonel Homer's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.

I apologize if any of the above are effectively identical; I am just a simple computer program, so I can't determine whether minor differences are significant or not. AnomieBOT ⚡ 13:54, 7 July 2013 (UTC)
