Thank you @DaniloDaysOfOurLives: All issues have been addressed :) Crystal Drawers 🎖️ ^{(wanna talk?)} 19:47, 30 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hi @DaniloDaysOfOurLives:, apologies for another ping, just wondering if you have any more comments? Crystal Drawers 🎖️ ^{(wanna talk?)} 13:29, 6 July 2026 (UTC)Reply

Hey, well done for this article! It is well-sourced, appears neutral, is stable and has no issues from Earwig. Here are my comments:

Can you specify whether the fortune teller is telling another character that someone will die or if it just random? Done
Is it known why the otter became drug-addled? Done
Is it known Kent Brockman survives? (I assume so)

Yes, he continues to appear in the series, but episode simply ends on him getting attacked

Can you please specify in the "Production" section that Tasha is a new character? Done
Can you please state who Mike Reiss and his wife portray and add them to the "Guest appearances" section in the infobox? Half done

To my knowledge, they don’t speak and are simply seen in the background. I reworded the text to reflect this, while still noting that they play themselves in the text

Could you please write and source the information about "Jay Pharoah as Drederick Tatum" in the production section and write who the character is in the plot section please?

He only has one throwaway line in the episode. I was not able to find a source for the role, and considering how minor it is, I opted to just remove it from the infobox

Is there any information on why Mike White declined the cameo?

No, the source just states that he was offered the role and given the script but declined to be in it

Can you please link "Nick Callahan" if possible? Not done

He doesn’t have a page anywhere or a redirect

"He was chosen because they wished to have a character death" - Can you please clarify who "they" are? Done
Can you please clarify that Marge read the book before the episode aired where they read the same book? And how it is another example of the discussion of the Simpsons predicting the future? Done
"pointing out oddities of the series" - Can you please give an example? Done

Once these have been addressed I will do a source spotcheck - please let me know if you have any questions or need any help! DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk · contribs) 09:34, 30 June 2026 (UTC)Reply

Thank you so much for your changes! I have spotchecked Sources #3, #8 and #14, and am passing this - well done! DaniloDaysOfOurLives (talk) 00:22, 8 July 2026 (UTC)Reply
