Will start ASAP. ;) Rcej (Robert) – talk 03:40, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Very nice job, all you need to do is remove this sentence from the lead: "Set in the 24th century, the series follows the adventures of the crew of the Starfleet managed Bajoran space station Deep Space Nine." This isn't the series' article, and reads a bit off-putting to the nerdy DS9-fans like me, who know that already and just want to read about the episode. ;-) Rcej (Robert) – talk 11:31, 17 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Its pretty typical for an episode article to have a brief reference to the series in the lead prior to the summary of the plot. I've included it in my other Star Trek related GAs and this style of summary is in other episode articles, i.e. the recent front page FA Gender Bender (The X-Files). However, I admit that this phrasing hasn't yet been refined as I've only worked on a handful of DS9 episodes, and so I'm happy to hear any re-wording suggestions for it.

This is still a good article with that sentence, so just leave it ;) I just wanted nitpick icing...lol -- Rcej (Robert) – talk 04:42, 20 May 2013 (UTC)[reply]
