Well my main question is as the title of the thread suggests, now I'll elaborate.
I like reading what other people thought of different episodes of the show, it helps pick out the good points and the bad points. I like the Gateworld reviews because they are generally uncluttered and on the most part I do like reading them.
However, in the joint review of "The Storm" and "The Eye" I was more than a little disappointed with one or two grammatical/factual mistakes. First can I point out that favourite is not spelt "favorite" and something can be occurring and recurring. But something cannot "reoccur".
Secondly it was not a Tsunami that hit Atlantis like the review said, rather a wave most likely caused by the hurricane (I look to the people who have been debating what it was for a proper explanation). A Tsunami is "a large destructive ocean wave caused by an underwater earthquake or some other movement of the earth’s surface" -i.e., not what we saw hit the Atlantis shield.
One last thing which might affect the anti-spoiler people is the reference in the review to a character
I like reading spoilers but others don't so maybe this could just take into account other peoples ideas about spoilers.
May I note these are not the only spelling errors in Taylor Brown's reviews (i.e. the spelling of neighbours in the review of "Home" and the spelling of humour in the review of "Poisoning The Well")
I hope that those that read this don't see it as a flaming or overt criticism of the reviews, but slightly more constructive, maybe a Beta of the reviews would benefit the site as a whole? Comments Please.
