Ongoing

Bring Futurama up to FA status.
Better define article assessment levels and reassess to include C class.

Needs attention

All images linked in any Futurama article need to have a fair use rationale, this includes:
- ~~episode articles~~ done
- Character and list of character pages
- All miscellaneous pages (as linked in the Futurama template)
All episode pages need to meet the standards of WP:NTVEP. A basic layout for how this can be accomplished is under discussion at Wikipedia talk:WikiProject Futurama/Archive 2#Episode article organization-revisited. Examples to follow include "Space Pilot 3000" and "Hell Is Other Robots".

Goofs[edit]

Residual memory. Happy? Either way, it is in your oppinion that is is a goof, and therefore inadmissable.

What is this in reference to?Mad2Physicist (talk) 18:07, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Since this edit was made Dec. 14 2006 [1] and the same ip made an edit to the page at the same time [2]. I suspect that is what s/he is referring to. For what it's worth I agree that there's no reason to include the information that was removed in that edit. Star dust 8212 18:47, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

sh[edit]

waht was that monster sleeping in the central bureaucracy were the bender bumped in to him and said: "please don't tell my superviser that i was sleeping? was that a beholder from Dungeons & Dragons?

Pece Kocovski 09:34, 25 February 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Yes, it was.--MythicFox 07:06, 4 April 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Brazil and How Hermes Requisitioned His Groove Back[edit]

Shouldn't the obvious visual references to Brazil be mentioned in references? The synopsis mentions similarities but the big central beaurocracy with its filing cabinet walls is a direct visual reference site gag.

The references section is entirely added by people like you and me, seeing as I have no idea what you're talking about I had no way of catching that reference and adding it to the list, feel free to add it yourself. Stardust8212 22:40, 29 June 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Will do. I'm just worried of being accused of vandalism and wanted to check first. 210.84.63.30 09:29, 9 July 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Wife?[edit]

I was just wonderin' if anyone knows what it is that leelas old boss says about his wife (i couldnt relly make it out) Its sound likes he says: "My horrible wife" or "My honourable wife" If somone knowes could yous tell me, pleasa? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 83.88.200.107 (talk • contribs)

I'm pretty sure he calls her "horrible" but I'm not positive. Stardust8212 01:44, 22 April 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Sometimes a guy gets lonely"?[edit]

Why does Bender say this during the locker inspection scene? Totema1 06:11, 14 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's a masturbation joke 64.91.120.145 15:42, 19 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I got that far...but a screw? Totema1 05:00, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It's not a screw, it's a nut. Does that clear it up for you? Star dust 8212 12:32, 25 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

No wonder it didn't make sense before. I kept saying screw. XD Totema1 01:32, 26 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Aussie dude.[edit]

So he resembles Paul Hogan. And? Zoidberg resembles a lobster. Leela resembles a hot chick I once saw. Lots42 05:47, 9 November 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Cultural references[edit]

As I recently brought up at the wikiproject (here) it is time we did something about the cultural references sections. I am moving all unsourced references to the talk pages for the time being in hopes of creating a better, more thoroughly sourced article. Please discuss this action at the wikiproject link above so as not to split it over 72 different talk pages. The information removed from the article follows.

Cultural references[edit]

While stamping forms, Hermes sings "Stamp it, file it, send it overnight." a parody of "Get Up, Stand Up", a song by Bob Marley.
Of his poker hand, Zoidberg says, "Finally I have a good claw: three human females, a number, and a king giving himself brain surgery!" The last refers to the King of Hearts.
While talking to the techie about where the central filing office is, the computer in the background displays a screen similar to the computer screens seen in The Matrix.
This episode features a creature similar to a Beholder who "guards" the Central Bureaucracy. It is a Grade 11 bureaucrat that begs the Planet Express crew not to tell it's supervisor it was sleeping on the job.

Addition:

Central filing resembles fictional spacecraft Rama in Arthur C. Clarke's Rendevous with Rama —Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.86.101.15 (talk) 23:46, 27 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

36[edit]

I do not recall Hermes ever regaining (in the episode) the rank he began the episode with. Lots42 (talk) 10:33, 31 March 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Nor do I. I will remove it for the moment.Mad2Physicist (talk) 18:05, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Third Leg[edit]

I've seen this episode a lot and the 'third leg' section doesn't make sense. Besides, Bender has switched out legs before. Lots42 (talk) 06:07, 2 April 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Ninth Man[edit]

It is not clear who this is or how it relates to continuity (I actually do not know who this is either or I would fix it myself).Mad2Physicist (talk) 18:07, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]

From what I can gather it is a character who randomly appears in the background of various episodes and is wearing a shirt (?) that has a number 9 on it. I think one of the Futurama wikis has an article on him. My personal opinion, as usual, is that without any citations/information to clarify why we should care that he's there then there isn't a reason to mention it in the article. I haven't acted on this opinion yet though. Star dust 8212 18:50, 30 May 2008 (UTC)[reply]
