Talk:30 Rock/GA1

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 Conception section, "In 2002" it would be best if there was a comma placed after 2002. Same thing for the Internet section, "April 2, 2006" add a comma after 2006. In the Casting section, you don't need to add "Saturday Night Live", since (SNL) is already explained in the Conception section.

   B. It complies with the manual of style guidelines for lead sections, layout, words to watch, fiction, and list incorporation:

   In the Conception section, it would be best if "Saturday Night Live (SNL)" was mentioned at the beginning and not at mid-paragraph. In the Filming locations section, "30 Rock" needs to be italicized. Question: In the Season two section, do you mean Seinfeld the actor or the show? In the Critical reception section, it would be best if "LA Weekly", "Chicago Tribune", "Entertainment Weekly", "TV Guide", "The New York Times", were linked once, per here. In the Ratings section, is it necessary to have both "September" and "May" linked?

   D. It contains no copyright violations nor plagiarism:

4. Is it neutral?

   It represents viewpoints fairly and without editorial bias, giving due weight to each:

5. Is it stable?

   It does not change significantly from day to day because of an ongoing edit war or content dispute:

6. Is it illustrated, if possible, by images?

   A. Images are tagged with their copyright status, and valid non-free use rationales are provided for non-free content:

   B. Images are relevant to the topic, and have suitable captions:

7. Overall:

   Pass or Fail:

   If the above statements can be answered, I will pass the article. Good luck with improving this article!
