Image:Dabf07.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.

It's almost certainly a pun on the phrase "the fastest gun in the west." the PLOT, however... —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.73.70.113 (talk) 03:10, 5 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

• You need something on the episode's ratings in the lead
  • Done. Queenieacoustic (talk) 21:01, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Provide links to the characters' articles in the plot section
  • Done. Queenieacoustic (talk) 21:01, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• Despite making progress Buck is not restored to hero-status, but Homer has an idea. Keep in mind I have not seen this particular episode, but this sentence is slightly confusing. Perhaps make it more clear that you are referring to Bart and Buck's "hero-status" (like..."not restored to hero-status for Bart")?
  • Sounds good. Queenieacoustic (talk) 21:01, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• In a rare moment (for The Simpsons) Italicize The Simpsons. This sounds sort of like original research, and may need a citation.
  • Removed In a rare moment (for The Simpsons). Queenieacoustic (talk) 21:01, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• I assume the first half of the cultural refs section is cited from the DVD commentary (i.e. The episode title, which is often wrongfully referred to as "The Latest Gun In the West"...)?
  • Yes. Queenieacoustic (talk) 21:01, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
• How many total viewers watched the episode (i.e. how many million)?
  • I don't know, I could not find any information about it and the only ratings source I have doesn't mention it. Queenieacoustic (talk) 21:01, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Please take a look at my comments, edit accordingly, and respond back on this page. Thanks, Ruby2010 talk 18:34, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Oh, and I'll place the review on hold for seven days while you sort out the suggestions. Thanks, Ruby2010 talk 18:35, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Article looks good to go. Pass for GA. Nice work! Ruby2010 talk 21:15, 22 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
