Something wrong here

I think this needs to be edited:

"Reception

16.31 American viewers watched this episode live.[7]"

I'm pretty sure that you can't have .31 of a person watching a show, and I'm pretty sure more than 16.31 viewers watched it live. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.145.227.144 (talk) 01:34, 5 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Link cities per WP:MOS

"Humboldt County, California" should be two separate links

Done Ruby 2010/2013 18:02, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"was the first hour" shouldn't that be "episode"

""Further Instructions" was originally going to air October 11, 2006 as the second episode of the third season, but was swapped with "The Glass Ballerina"" to ""Further Instructions" was originally scheduled to air October 11, 2006, as the second episode of the show's third season, but swapped with the other Lost episode "The Glass Ballerina""

Done Ruby 2010/2013 18:02, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"On its original broadcast" on should be upon

Done Ruby 2010/2013 18:02, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Double quotes (") should be single quotes ('), as per WP:MOS, for the references

How is Zap2it a high-quality reliable source?

Zap2It has its own editorial staff and the cited article's author, Ryan McGee, has been cited in other reliable media outlets (I assume he no longer works for Zap2It because he's no longer listed on their "about" website and he's been posting articles for Hitfix). Ruby 2010/2013 18:02, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

"ABC" should be "ABC.com", with a link

Done Ruby 2010/2013 18:02, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Nowhere in the article does it tell my what channel it originally aired on, that's needs to be included (it is ABC)

Done Ruby 2010/2013 18:02, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Categories should be sorted in alphabetical order

Done Ruby 2010/2013 18:02, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Overall; good job. On hold for now. TBr and ley 18:16, 19 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks, as always for the review! Hopefully I can get other episodes in Lost's third season up to snuff. Ruby 2010/2013 18:02, 20 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Cool, that's sounds good.

Passing. Great work! TBr and ley 01:07, 22 October 2012 (UTC)[reply]
