New enough: Long enough:

Policy compliance:

• Adequate sourcing:
• Neutral:
• Free of copyright violations, plagiarism, and close paraphrasing:
• Other problems: - Plot...

Hook eligibility:

• Cited:
• Interesting:
• Other problems: - See below

QPQ: Done.

Overall: Article is new enough, long enough, well-sourced and neutral. The page history issue will have to be resolved before this can be approved and I've tagged the plot for being too long per MOS:TVPLOT. I'm a bit iffy on ALT0 as it may imply Rosen's thing was also a Christmas gift, though it's interesting and cited. Also, I think The West Wing should be linked in the hooks. QPQ has been done. I'm fine with IingAR for Christmas. I mean, if we get this approved in time. Pamzeis (talk) 14:12, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

• • @Pamzeis: Thanks for the speedy review! I slimmed down the plot and changed "reprised" to "replicated"—the latter should signal that it's the napkin being replicated, not its timing. Can't histmerge, we'll have to ask an admin for that. theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 21:10, 19 December 2021 (UTC)

    I've linked The West Wing in the hooks and now we're just waiting for the histmerge... Pamzeis (talk) 02:06, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

    I'd actually rather not link the show—it's linked in the lead of the article, my hope is that the article sucks people in who were trying to get to TWW but end up sticking around. It doesn't really need to be linked, does it? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 06:39, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

    Ah, gotcha. I've removed the links. Pamzeis (talk) 08:01, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

    :D 'preciate it—Graeme Bartlett, could you fast-track (read: do?) the histmerge so this can go in the christmas sets? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 08:16, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

    Merged. I declare no relationship with Josiah or Jed. But I think this will need a tick before going in a set. For the next reviewer that may now be confused by history: it has been a redirect from 16:41, 26 October 2013‎ to 18 November 2021‎. So this can be counted as new from a redirect. Also I checked for new page review - no copyright infringement. Graeme Bartlett (talk) 11:03, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

    hehehe, thanks so much! Pamzeis, anything left? theleekycauldron (talk • contribs) (they/she) 22:07, 20 December 2021 (UTC)

    Think we're all good! Pamzeis (talk) 00:46, 21 December 2021 (UTC)
