Pop cultural references

Might Dr. Ivanov be a reference to Doctor Who's Davros? The weelchair, the mechanical voice, the blend of robotics and insects. Just a thought to anyone who can confirm or deny it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Trondheimsgutt (talk • contribs) 13:12, 1 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I thought he was more likely a reference to Stephen Hawking. -- Beardo (talk) 16:35, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

-- I definitely think this is a Davros reference; first thing I thought of when I saw the character in the episode. --ShawnML2 (talk) 01:00, 7 October 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Will review soon. Glimmer721 ^talk 16:28, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Comments:

Should "Ekbom syndrome" be capitalized (or at least that way)?
"Mulder visits the nearby Dr. Ivanov, a wheelchair-using scientist who works on insect-like robots, and renders the man speechless- informing Mulder that the specimen is, technology-wise, vastly superior to anything he's ever seen before." This sentence is a little confusing. Is Mulder the one speechless? Also, the dash needs to be an emdash.
Do any of your sources mention what "Coprophages" means? Could be added to the paragraph explaining the title.
You might also be able to get something from here, or at least in the future.

Otherwise this is pretty solid. Man, I really have to rent the third season from my library soon! I'm placing this on hold for 7 days while changes are addressed. Glimmer721 ^talk 22:25, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

OK, I believe I've fixed everything. And Ekbom syndrome is a proper noun, hence the capitalization. It's actually supposed to be Ekbom's, and so I fixed it. I'll also try to add parts from that article later.--Gen. Quon (talk) 23:10, 8 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Good enough for now. Passing... Glimmer721 ^talk 00:02, 9 April 2012 (UTC)[reply]

References

What is "Shearman and Pearson" - in footnotes but not mentioned in the list. -- Beardo (talk) 16:37, 20 July 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Sheriff Frass Comment

No mention of the meaning of the Sheriff's name? "Frass" is the name for insect dung. Joyous! | Talk 23:21, 23 December 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Viral tweet

@Grapple X, Drovethrughosts, Glimmer721, and Igordebraga: I thought you all might get a kick out of this viral tweet I just saw about the image and its caption. Having dug through old history pages, I'm 95% sure I added the image and the bit about one dying (I think someone else added that fun fact to the image later on). Regardless, I remember reading that fact in 2012 and thinking it was hilarious. I hope the attention this is getting puts a smile on your face, haha!--Gen. Quon (Talk) 18:18, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Haha, thanks for this! These episode articles always remind me of the first time I watched X-Files back in 2012. Good memories! Drovethrughosts (talk) 19:16, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Great one (even made sure to like the tweet where you claim authorship). And someday I need to both finish Season 11 and use the DVDs for both that and 10 to improve the only episode articles left here. igordebraga ≠ 22:08, 22 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Fantastic. I always loved how deadpan that caption is. ᵹʀᴀᴘᴘʟᴇ ꭗ 12:19, 23 December 2021 (UTC)[reply]
