Short episode summaries on List of episodes, and long summaries on season pages[edit]

Thanks to User:Ned Scott, it is now possible to show short episode summaries in the List of episodes, while showing long episode summaries in the season articles. To do that, the episode template now allows a new parameter called LongSummary. If this new parameter has not been added yet to an episode template, ShortSummary will be transcluded instead.

|LongSummary=After being infested by a Goa'uld parasite in the previous episode, Major Kawalsky shows signs of possession. In the meantime, Teal'c is questioned by several members of the Pentagon about the Goa'uld. Once Stargate Command discovers that Kawalsky has a Goa'uld in him, they call upon the expertise of medical experts to remove it. Teal'c allows medical staff to perform controlled experiments on the larval Goa'uld to find a way to help Kawalsky, but the Goa'uld has already bound itself irreversibly to Kawalsky's brain. The possessed Kawalsky overpowers Teal'c and attempts an escape through the Stargate. In the ensuing struggle between Teal'c and Kawalsky, the symbiote and Kawalsky are killed. These events prove Teal'c worth, allegiance and honour to the SGC, and he is assigned as the fourth member of SG-1 on O'Neill's recommendation.

Last versions of episode articles before the redirect here[edit]

In Awards section there is said that "Childhood's End" was the only Stargate franchise episode directed by SciFi veteran David Winning. But David Winning is marked as the director of both "Childhood's End" and "Poisoning the Well" in Episodes section. There is an error somewhere. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Myriwe (talk • contribs) 20:54, 21 January 2009 (UTC)[reply]

GA Review[edit]

This review is transcluded from Talk:Stargate Atlantis (season 1)/GA1. The edit link for this section can be used to add comments to the review.

I shall be reviewing this page against the Good Article criteria, following its nomination for Good Article status. Jezhotwells (talk) 01:03, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Quick fail criteria assessment

  1. The article completely lacks reliable sources – see Wikipedia:Verifiability.
  2. The topic is treated in an obviously non-neutral way – see Wikipedia:Neutral point of view.
  3. There are cleanup banners that are obviously still valid, including cleanup, wikify, NPOV, unreferenced or large numbers of fact, clarifyme, or similar tags.
  4. The article is or has been the subject of ongoing or recent, unresolved edit wars.
  5. The article specifically concerns a rapidly unfolding current event with a definite endpoint.

No problems encountered when checking against quick fail criteria, on to substantive review. Jezhotwells (talk) 01:12, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Checking against GA criteria[edit]

GA review (see here for criteria)
  1. It is reasonably well written.
    a (prose): b (MoS):
    I had to copy-edit for style, grammar, clarity and consistency of tense. Please pay attention to this in any further nominations you make. The Guild of copyeditors can help.
  2. It is factually accurate and verifiable.
    a (references): b (citations to reliable sources): c (OR):
    Ref #11 [1] reports network error. It looks from the URL to be a blog and thus not an RS. I have commented it out as in my opinion it is not an essential part of the article and could probably be replaced by another review if you wanted. Jezhotwells (talk) 10:36, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
  3. It is broad in its coverage.
    a (major aspects): b (focused):
  4. It follows the neutral point of view policy.
    Fair representation without bias:
  5. It is stable.
    No edit wars etc.:
  6. It is illustrated by images, where possible and appropriate.
    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  7. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:
    • OK, I am happy to pass this as it stands as a Good article. Congratulations. Please do bear in mind my comments about prose style above for any future nominations. Jezhotwells (talk) 10:36, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Thanks for your work on this article. And i've gone to the Guild of Copyeditors to take a look at my other GA nominations. --TIAYN (talk) 10:40, 6 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
