Just a few suggestions...

Plot

  • "Attempts to shoot Lois with a sniper rifle" - This contains a wikilink to Schindler's List, which strikes me as an easter egg. I think it should be removed altogether, especially since you already mention the reference in the Production section. Another alternative would be changing it to "attempts to shoot Lois with a sniper rifle, like in the film Schindler's List", but again, since you already mention it in Production, I wouldn't recommend that alternative...
  • The lead and Production section mentions RAbbi Goldberg and Max Weinstein, but the plot section makes no mention of them. Can you add here what role they play in the episode?

Production and cultural references

  • Can you more specifically explain the parody of The All-New Super Friends Hour?
  • "Stewie's prayer over the candles is a real prayer that women recite before a non-Sabbath festival's start, however, his following prayer is a reference to the 1984 adventure film Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom where Indian priest Mola Ram takes out the heart of a man during a ritual." Can you break this into two paragraphs? Also, can you reword the part that says "his following prayer"? It was unclear to me if this meant he did another prayer later, or if the real prayer turned into the fake prayer...

Reception

  • "It's hard to pull off an episode like this and not incur the wrath of religious groups, but the writers here were careful enough to offend universally, and not say anything controversial enough to merit any serious censorship. It's definitely meant for people who are open-minded to this kind of humor, and can make sure they treat the subject matter purely as comedy and not any manner of social commentary or prejudice. Take away the slow start, and this episode managed to really deliver some memorable shocking comedy." This quote is way too long. Could you shorten it a bit and then paraphrase the rest?

I'll place this on hold for now. Thanks! — Hunter Kahn 04:06, 12 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Hey man, nice to hear from you again too. I've been a little less active on WP since we last collaborated. Now I mostly work on Seinfeld-related articles (working on a Season two featured/good topic). Fixed your comments, I did not put the info about Rabbi Goldberg and Max Weinstein in the plot section as I couldn't find much room for it, but I clearified there role in the production section, hope you find it enough. Later.--Music26/11 17:19, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

A good article is:

  1. Well-written: Prose is good, MOS is good.
  2. Factually accurate and verifiable: Sources are good, no original research.
  3. Broad in its coverage: Covers main aspects, no unneeded detail.
  4. Neutral: Yes.
  5. Stable: Yes.
  6. Illustrated, if possible, by images: Yes.

Good work, that's a pass! I'll try to review some of your other articles in the next few days. — Hunter Kahn 17:31, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply

Thanks, that would be great, I'll see if I can return the favor.--Music26/11 17:47, 18 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
