Untitled[edit]

Does anyone know what the song that was playing in the background when Lisa was doing her dragon levitation at the magic recital?! The song is a classic piece that is playing on alot of tv shows.. specially when they are doing some fast action stunts or what not. The Today Show (NBC) had it played in the background a few times during some of thier running stunts! —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.130.233.48 (talkcontribs)

Same question for me, just watched a re run and its too funny, like the song in The Benny Hill Show --ometzit<col> 02:54, 9 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

The last edit added "When did that happen?" to the article; I checked, and it happens about 3 minutes and 40 seconds into the segment, at which point homer says "When did that happen?". Kaenneth 08:41, 9 February 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Leprechaun[edit]

Is the leprechaun the same one that tells Ralph to burn things? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.1.136.161 (talk) 11:33, 6 September 2008 (UTC)[reply]

    a (images are tagged and non-free images have fair use rationales): b (appropriate use with suitable captions):
  • Images look good, and the non-free image checks out.
  1. Overall:
    Pass/Fail:

Just a few minor fixes:

  • Outside Mr. Burns' manor, Smithers is standing on a ladder, tries to put up a small orange bat decoration on a weather vane, when he slips on the ladder. Sentence doesn't quite make sense, fix.
    • Changed the sentence to "Outside Mr. Burns' manor, Smithers is standing on a ladder, trying to put up a small orange bat decoration on a weather vane." and implemented the rest of the original sentence in the next: "He slips on the ladder, grabs on an electric cord... etc".Queenieacoustic (talk) 18:20, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
  • Feeling bad that she has to toss out the Ultrahouse, Marge gives the CPU to her sisters Patty and Selma, which tries to kill itself after hearing Patty's stories about her day at the DMV. Make it more clear that the CPU tries to kill itself.
    • Changed it to "Feeling bad that she has to toss out the Ultrahouse, Marge gives the CPU to her sisters Patty and Selma, whose mundane stories drives the CPU to kill itself".Queenieacoustic (talk) 18:20, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

It was a pleasure to read this article. Just make those two minor fixes above, and I will be happy to pass it for GA. I'll put it on hold for seven days, though I'm sure it will be fixed much sooner. Good work, Ruby2010 talk 17:26, 4 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
