Comments
  • There's one deadlink
  • You say "the episode" quite a bit in the lead, so I might change "Overall, the episode received largely negative reviews from critics." to "Overall, it received largely negative reviews from critics."
  • ""back-to-basics stand alines..." - typo on your part?
  • "anti-coagulants" could probably use a relevant wikilink
  • "While they drive off with the body, Abbott checks a dead tree out" -> "...Abbott inspects a dead tree." (sounds more encyclopedic)
  • "The cops" -> The police
  • "When his ground radar goes off, Scully goes outside after shooting up the ceiling" - shooting up? This could also be reworded into something more encyclopedic (shooting at?)
  • Portraying actor, Robert Patrick, explained, "['Patience'] is where it starts to toy with my willingness to believe in the paranormal and strange happenings. You'ge got a guy that's a bat, which is sort of out of the norm." - first part of this sentence could be reworded (portraying actor?)
  • "You'ge got a guy that's a bat" - typo on your part, or on the sources?
  • Use consistent date formatting

I believe that is it. Will place on hold for seven days, though I'm sure it will only take you a fraction of that time. :) Ruby 2010/2013 17:11, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Thanks for the review! I believe I've addressed everything. The dead link thing was weird: apparently, the website is still there, they just removed a "0" in the url.--Gen. Quon (talk) 18:23, 18 June 2012 (UTC)[reply]
