[edit] Plot Summaries

Hi Earl, I have seen some of your recent edits on my watchlist and I have a sllight concern. As a general guideline layed out in WP:EPISODE the plot summaries for a television episode should be about ten words per minute of programming. For Futurama episodes this amounts to only about 250 words of plot summary in each article. I am somewhat concerned about edits like this one which increased the word count to 764 words. This is simply too long and risks violating Wikipedia's policy on plot outlined at WP:NOT#PLOT. I'll have a look at the episodes more closely later but please consider how you could summarize the plot using fewer details in the future. Thanks and happy editing.

[edit] Bart Simpson

Thank you for your recent edits to Simpsons related articles. However, please don't change ullmanappearance to ullman appearance and voiceactor to voice actor. The template requires that they be one word to show up properly. Thank you, Ctjf83 ^talk 17:58, 17 December 2007 (UTC)
