GA review – see WP:WIAGA for criteria
This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
- Is it well written?
- A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
- In the Character biography section, "Wilson, one of three brothers from a Jewish household,[3] has an undergraduate degree from McGill University[14]," the comma needs come before the reference. In the Characterization section, you might want to correctly link "rehab" and "pitbull" to their correspondence articles. Same section, "They reconcile when Wilson forcefully takes House to House's father's funeral", sounds odd and might need to be reworded. In the Concept and creation section, fix the "Lion's Den" link. Same section, there's no need repetition of "Robert Sean Leonard", mentioning it once makes it clear who you're talking about. Also, do the same if throughout the article, if spotted.

- Thanks for the GA review, I think I took care of all your statements. One question, do you think I can list the article for FAc yet or are there things that need to be done first? --Music26/11 20:49, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
- You're quite welcome for the review. To be honest, I would recommend a peer review, so in case I missed stuff in the review, they can be spotted there, giving you more chances to likely have an FA to your name. Thank you to Music for getting the stuff I left at the talkpage, cause I have gone off and passed the article to GA. Congrats. ;) -- ThinkBlue (Hit BLUE) 22:31, 26 November 2008 (UTC)
