I'm back, this time with another Grey's Anatomy-related list! I noticed that the Grey's episode list was already of FL quality, and I brought the LoE for the second spin-off to FL earlier this year, so I thought that this would complete a nice set of lists. Private Practice is an American medical drama in which a doctor from the Seattle-based Grey's moved to Santa Monica for a fresh start. This list was in somewhat of a poor shape beforehand, but after a cleanup on sources, expansion of the lead, addition of viewing figures, and addressing all of the accessibility issues, I believe it's up to par with the similar lists I've brought here thus far. Thanks in advance for any reviews! TheDoctorWho (talk) 05:25, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Comments

"another ABC medical drama created by Rhimes'." - no reason for the apostrophe on Rhimes
"At the time, it was the second series from Shondaland" - the first three words are not needed and actually make the second clause of the sentence incorrect (it wasn't one of twelve at the time)
"Rhime's production company" - apostrophe is in the wrong place
"also crossed over into Sation 19" - title is spelt wrong
"The series was broadcast internationally," - sentence ends with a comma
That's what I got :-) -- ChrisTheDude (talk) 07:29, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Source review by Bgsu98

User:ChrisTheDude seems to have caught the issues with the lead, so I figured I would do the source review for you. Sources appear to be properly formatted and archived.

Spot check

No. 3 – Checks out.
No. 5 – Checks out.
No. 11 – Checks out.
No. 15 – Checks out.
No. 29 – Source identifies 10400 viewers, article states 10.36. I'm assuming 10400=10.40, but 10.40≠10.36.
No. 35 – Source does not list Private Practice. The source also lists CBS programs, but PP was an ABC series.
No. 43 – Source does not list Private Practice. Ditto.
No. 51 – Numbers do not match.
No. 66 – Checks out.
No. 81 – Checks out.
No. 99 – Checks out.
No. 101 – Checks out.
No. 113 – Checks out.
No. 129 – Checks out.

User:TheDoctorWho: I am concerned that the numbers for seasons 1 and 2 are not matching up. I would recommend adjusting the figures in the article to match what's in the sources. Please let me know when these have been addressed. Bgsu98 (Talk) 12:56, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Bgsu98: Thanks for catching this, the episode tables are the one thing I didn't make so I largely assumed good faith on the viewing figures outside of a few checks in the later seasons. I have however, now personally verified every number in the first two seasons and updated or replaced sources where necessary. TheDoctorWho (talk) 21:58, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Second spot check (seasons 1 & 2)

No. 24 – Checks out.
No. 27 – Checks out.
No. 33 – Checks out.
No. 35 – Checks out.
No. 38 – Checks out.
No. 46 – Checks out.
No. 51 – Numbers do not match.
No. 52 – Numbers do not match unless you are averaging two scores; however, source no. 51 still does not compute even if you are also averaging.
No. 53 – If this is an average, my calculator says it should be 9.23.
No. 54 – Checks out as an average.

User:TheDoctorWho: There still seems to be something wonky with the ratings for the second half of season 2. Please check and let me know when these have been addressed. Bgsu98 (Talk) 01:19, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@Bgsu98: Refs 51-53 provide ratings down to the half hour (rather than full hour like most of the others) and also to three decimal places (rather than two). The third decimal place is rounded and then the two half-hours are averaged. So for 51: (10.80+9.27)/2=10.04, for 52: (11.15+9.80)/2=10.48, and for 53: (9.75+8.72)/2=9.24 TheDoctorWho (talk) 02:43, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

Okay, sounds good… Source review passed. Bgsu98 (Talk) 02:49, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

OlifanofTennant

"Private Practice featured several fictional crossovers" as opposed to real crossovers?
"into Sation 19" spelt wrong
"Other cast members... were introduced later in the series" It states that these cast memebers joined later but did cast member later leave the series?

Thats what I found ping me when done. Olliefant (she/her) 14:08, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

@OlifanofmrTennant: Thank you for the review, I've addressed each of these! TheDoctorWho (talk) 21:58, 25 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

There was nothing else I could see, so happy to support. Alavense (talk) 07:29, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]

History6042

Original release date for pilot in the table needs a citation.
In the graphs, the colours used for seasons 1 and 4 are very similar. Please change one.
Should the time the episodes aired be added?
Per WP:AND, the word and should be used not &.
In the season tables it talks about US viewership, but in the overview table it doesn't say US, but the numbers are the same. Please fix this.
Ping when done. History6042😊 (Contact me) 12:01, 26 June 2025 (UTC)[reply]
A bit more;
- The alt text doesn't need a period.
- Why is the caption not showing up for the image?
- A table caption is necessary on all tables.

@History6042: Added a source and removed the period. Season 1 is orange and 4 is purple, perhaps you meant a different season(s)? Timeslots are already covered on the parent article and in the season articles, so I don't think it's needed here. Per MOS:TV we list teams as credited, that includes using & where necessary. The caption doesn't display when using the frameless option, this is the intended behavior per MOS:IMAGE. All of the episode tables already have captions (which is a comment you've left on several of my reviews and that is always taken care of, this is something that could be verified by a quick check yourself.....)

Hello, @TheDoctorWho, how I check the table captions is by going into source editor and looking for it. It is never there, is there a different place I should check for yours, otherwise support

In some episode lists (not all) the tables are transcluded from the season articles. That's the case here. What that means is that the actual coding for the tables exists on the season articles (Private Practice season 1, Private Practice season 2, etc.) and copies of them are brought here for a comprehensive list. If you check the source editor at those articles, you'll see that caption=List of Private Practice season X episodes is defined as a parameter on each.
