Foolish Censorship

An explanation of "MILF" was in an earlier version. Some bluenose deleted it. I put it back. It's the most important single fact about this episode. If you omit it, might as well delete the whole page. Barsoomian (talk) 06:31, 9 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

GA review

Article is looking pretty good at the moment. I swept through myself and made some changes, but there a still a few minor issues that need clearing up:

What exactly is ref 4 (SeinfeldVision) supporting?
Sentence Confusion was caused prior to the broadcast of this episode as many critics speculated as to how the episode would tackle the use of the phrase MILF without actually explaining that it is an acronym for "Mother I'd Like to Fuck", as that would break the rules set out by the Federal Communications Commission uses as three times in succession, twice as a conjunction. Some minor rewording, perhaps?
- I reworded. Barsoomian (talk) 12:43, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

"Blog" refers to the actual website on which someone writes, so maybe "Alec Baldwin also wrote blog posts" or "blog entries" might be better.
- I made it "he blogged" Barsoomian (talk) 12:43, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Article claims WGA strike ended 12 Feb, but says Fey returned 11 Feb and writers on the 13th - implying Fey returned before the end of the strike. Is this wrong, or if she was just returning for producing duties (or whatever else) then that should be clarified.
Maybe change WGA image caption so it's relevant to the episode, like something about the strike delaying the episode's production and broadcast...?

Otherwise, good job. Article is being placed on hold so you've got 7 days to make any fixes. —97198 talk 08:35, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Sorry, also have to ask about the lead sentence Jack tries to get the truth from Liz - the plot summary below does not mention that at all. Apparently, Jack already knew and it was Liz eager to tell him the truth. —97198 talk 14:01, 10 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Congrats! Looking good for a pass now ;) —97198 talk 13:23, 12 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Strike?

I understand that the writer's strike does carry some bearing on the production of the episode, but what difference does it make what the cast and crew did during the strike? That might be more appropriate for the article about the show, not a particular episode. Darquis (talk) 03:11, 6 December 2009 (UTC)[reply]
