[edit] Four focuses

He instead would teach the characters lessons in the Children Television Workshop's three main focuses, as would any character: Symbolic Representation, Cognitive Processes, Physical Environment, and the Social Environment- surely thats 4 focuses?

Yes, I've corrected it. -- Zanimum 17:10, 26 August 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Failed GA nomination

This article failed good article nomination, because of the following reason:

1. Prose and writing needs improvement:
   • The structure of this article is confusing for a common reader to understand the article. The Characters and production history section should not be combined as one section. My suggestion is to split "History" and "Characters" into 2 sections. Afterwards, editors can focus on production history in the History article. Also when I read that section, I am confused with which one is a character name and which one is actor name. I have never watched this series before, therefore it is good for editors to inform clearly to readers, who do not have knowledge of the subject.
   • Avoid to use his/her if it is unclear to whom the editor wants to point at. For example, if the editor has written "known better as Moynihan report", it better to write "Moynihan report", rather than "his report".
   • Prose can be improved to have better encyclopedic statements, rather than narrative story.
2. It is not enough with only 1 image. Also that the only image shown has limited use, because of copyright statement.

When these issues are addressed, the article can be resubmitted for consideration. Thanks for the editors' work for this article. — Indon (reply) — 15:22, 12 September 2006 (UTC)
