Just a note to the editors, the actual references for the ratings need to be inside the list of episodes table to avoid a cite error on the List of Parks and Recreation episodes page. Just having a rating name label is not sufficient to avoid the error. I've fixed it up again so there's no problem just now but I think it's something people need to be aware of. Thanks.

This article is in decent shape, but it needs more work before it becomes a Good Article.
Is it well written?
A. The prose is clear and concise, and the spelling and grammar are correct:
In the Crew section, "...co-writer of the two Austin Powers" you might want to say the Austin Powers movies or something, leaving it like "...co-writer of the two Austin Powers" kinda doesn't make sense. In the Writing section, "...and attended at Los Angeles City Council meetings" is "at" needed?
In the Episodes and Critical reception sections, please link "Paul Schneider" and "Salon" to their correspondence articles. In the Writing section, please link "California" once. In the Filming section, there's a period missing in the February 18, 2009, date. I believe the "s" in southern California should be capitalized, in the same section, it's after the February 18 date. Same section, the Amy Poehler quote, "For every show, there could probably be a second show of stuff we've edited out, needs quotation marks. In the Critical reception section, instead of "Salon" why not put "Salon.com". In the Ratings section, link "Nielsen Ratings" once, please.
I think I got everything, although California is already linked once in "The show's writers spent time researching local
California politics..." and likewise for Nielsen Ratings in the first sentence of the section, "The
Nielsen Ratings slid consistently downward throughout..." — HunterKahn21:55, 4 January 2010 (UTC)reply
In the second paragraph of the Writing section, "The Parks and Recreation staff worked with a number of consultants familiar with local government work, including Scott Albright, a California city planner who provided feedback for the Mark Brendanawicz character", California is linked. In the Ratings section, its linked the first time, but then "However, Parks and Recreation declined almost every week in the Nielsen Ratings for the rest of the season", its linked again.
A. It contains a list of all references (sources of information), presented in accordance with
the layout style guideline:
B.
Reliable sources are
cited inline. All content that
could reasonably be challenged, except for plot summaries and that which summarizes cited content elsewhere in the article, must be cited no later than the end of the paragraph (or line if the content is not in prose):
