trivia

where are these "trivia" points supposed to be integrated into the article?...they aren't in summary of the episode or deleted scenes

I think the trivia are interesting. Relabel it if you want but please don't delete them. I'm removing the warning tag.GreekParadise (talk) 13:35, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Unfortunately, it doesn't matter how "interesting" you think the pieces of trivia are, WP:TRIVIA says this quite clearly. Mastrchf (^t/_c) 14:06, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Fair use rationale for Image:Theofficediwali.jpg

Image:Theofficediwali.jpg is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.

Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.

If there is other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page. Note that any fair use images lacking such an explanation can be deleted one week after being tagged, as described on criteria for speedy deletion. If you have any questions please ask them at the Media copyright questions page. Thank you.

Kelly's sister's names

Am I imagining it, or was one of the names she said something along hte lines of Nepa (pronounced like knee-pa)? I ask largely because if so, could it have been an intentional nod to North Eastern PA where Scranton is? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 74.69.161.120 (talk) 03:00, 31 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Issues

General

No dab links. Great work!
No dead links. Great work!
The rationale for the image needs to be expanded

I agree. I've removed it, as the rationale was insufficient and the resolution was too large.

Infobox

Add "running time"

Done

"List of The Office (U.S. TV series) episodes" → List of The Office (U.S.) episodes"

List of The Office (U.S. TV series) episodes is the correct link; List of The Office (U.S.) episodes is a red link

Lede

Unlink television series per WP:OVERLINK

Done

Explain what a "rating" is. Nielsen ratings, etc.

The lead is meant to be brief; I've added a link to Nielsen Media Research to help readers, but don't think anything else is needed here

Synopsis

bicycle to work → bikes to work

Done

Unlink text message per WP:OVERLINK

Done

Production

Nothing is there

Reception

Explain what a "rating" is. Nielsen ratings, etc.

Similar to above. I've added a link to Nielsen Media Research and changed "ratings" to "ratings share". Otherwise, I think everything is sufficiently explained (4.2 percent of all 18-49 yr olds etc).

Television Without Pity graded the episode with an A → Television Without Pity gave the episode wih an "A" grade

Done

References

Ref. 3, 7, 11, 13, 14, 15, 16: All of them need publishers. If you don't know, click on the article for it

I understand what you're saying, but this is not a requirement of the GA criteria. :) I prefer not to add this information (I think the work/publisher parameters are enough).

External links

Link NBC.com in the section

Done
