GA Review

GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria


This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.

  1. Is it well written?
    A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
    In the lead, this sentence ---> "Pam is supposed to keep track Michael's productivity", it would be best if "of" would be added after "track". In the Synopsis section, this sentence ---> "At Dunder Mifflin Stamford" that does not make sense and it would be best if it were re-written.

    B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:
    In the Reception section, it would be best if "Entertainment Weekly" were italicized, per here.

I've fixed all the problems except 2a. Unfortunatly, the spam filter won't let post the actual link. I've asked for it to be un-banned at MediaWiki talk:Spam-whitelist, but so far there has been no reply. --Mr.crabby (Talk) 17:05, 27 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Unfortunately, the Whitelisting process can be a bit lengthy. I'd ask the reviewer to not fail this article due to the Whitelisting process. Mastrchf (t/c) 17:28, 1 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Ref 3 has been fixed --Mr.crabby (Talk) 17:46, 6 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
Thank you for fixing the ref. settings, Mr.crabby, because I have gone off and placed the article as GA. Congrats. ;) --  ThinkBlue  (Hit BLUE) 16:46, 7 July 2008 (UTC)[reply]
