Issues[edit]
General[edit]
- No dab links. Great work!
- No dead links. Great work!
- Non-free images have good rationales.
Infobox[edit]
- Cut down on the red links
Lede[edit]
- Unlink American as per WP:OVERLINK
- Cut down on red links
- Monster-of-the-Week should be "monster-of-the-week", with quotation marks
- Unlink "monster-of-the-week" per Squeeze (The X-Files)
- "unconnected to the series' wider mythology" should be "a stand-alone plot which is unconnected to the overarching fictional history of The X-Files"
- I'd imagine it would earn a Nielsen rating, what Nielsen rating?
- Also, re-write to: "Hellbound" earned a Nielsen rating of X, being watched by 7.8 million viewers in its initial broadcast
- It received mixed reviews from television critics → The episode has generally received mixed reviews from television critics.
- "The official website for The X-Files notes that the episode's plot is similar to mythology surrounding the Aztec agriculture god Xipe Totec". Don't think the official website needs to be noted.
- "The layers was then peeled off." run-on sentence that could be merged
Plot[edit]
- Link Novi
- Link Virgina
- Add actor in brackets for "Dr. Lisa Holland"; it can clearly be seen in the infobox
- "the members discuss turning their lives around". Awkward. Can't really understand
- Add actor for "Terry Pruit" in brackets
- Add actor for "Ed" in brackets
- Hell doesn't need to be in capitals.
- Unlink hell per WP:OVERLINK
- Add actor for "Detective Van Allen"
- Add actor for "Dr. Bertram Mueller"
- Potts. Mueller needs actor
- "The episode ends" isn't really needed. It that is last sentence of section people should already know
- Detective Van Allen should be "Allen" as it is above
- Same for various others, if it is mentioned more than once should be there last name per MOS:
Production[edit]
- Cut down on the red links
- No mention of how many directing credits. Was it the directors first credit, etc.? Thanks!
- "Executive producer John Shiban later explained that, since Doggett and Reyes were in control of The X-Files, the producers needed to give one of them a drive." citation/reference needed
- "The official website for The X-Files notes that the episode's plot is similar to mythology surrounding the Aztec agriculture god Xipe Totec". Don't think the official website needs to be noted.
Broadcast and reception[edit]
- "Hellbound" originally aired in the United States on the Fox network on January 27, 2002 and in the United Kingdom on BBC One on January 5, 2003" Re-write to: "Hellbound" originally aired on the Fox network on January 27, 2002, and was first broadcast in the United Kingdom on BBC One on January 5, 2003"
- The episode received a Nielsen household rating of 5.1, meaning that it was seen by 5.1% of the nation's estimated households. Then entry was viewed by 5.4 million households and by 7.8 million viewers. It was the 71st most watched episode of television that aired during the week ending January 27". Rewrite to: The episode's initial broadcast was viewed by approximately 5.4 million households, and 7.7 million viewers, making it the seventh-first most watched episode of television that aired during the week ending January 27. "Hellbound" earned a Nielsen household rating of 5.1, meaning that it was seen by 5.1% of the nation's estimated households
- Above it says Nielsen rating, here it is says Nielsen household rating, which is it?
- "The episode received mostly positive reviews from critics" should be "The episode has generally received mixed reviews from television critics"
- B should be in quotations
- "Jessica Morgan from Television Without Pity gave the episode a B grade" anything else?
- John Keegan who is that. What critic, etc. Another thing, you jump from one review to another. Very confusing
- There should be ref. for each sentence for critic reviews
- I'm not so sure. Usually, I put a ref after a direct quote or the end of a reference. You don't have to have a ref at the end of every sentence, per Wikipedia:Citation overkill
Notes[edit]
- There are no issues
References[edit]
- Ref. 4, 6, 8, 9, 11, 14: All should be linked to the book source below as in Squeeze (The X-Files)
- Ref. 5: Season 9, and 20th Century Fox Home Entertainment should be unlinked as it already is above
- Ref. 7: Fox Broadcasting Company is already linked before. Thus, that should be unlinked
- Ref. 7: Shouldn't XFiles.com be in italics as it is the work, Fox is the publisher
- Ref. 12: No space is needed on "NBC Universal". That being said, it should be "NBCUniversal"
External links[edit]
- "Hellbound" on The X-Files Wiki, an external wiki. The X-Files shouldn't be italic, as this is for the wiki, not show, and there website isn't in italics like that
- Wikiquote should be "The X-Files" not "TXF Season 9" per Squeeze (The X-Files)
- I don't see why this needs to change. It's been like that on the "Squeeze" page since before it was an FA, meaning that it was not the FAR that suggested the change. I feel this is just a stylistic difference, and for the sake of continuity, I'd like to keep it.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 04:42, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
- That's fine.
