Issues

[edit]

General

[edit]
  • No dab links. Great work!
  • No dead links. Great work!
  • Non-free images have good rationales.

Plot

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]
[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)

That's all. Good work! TBrandley 04:05, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

I've done most of your suggestions, although I've disagreed with a handful (and noted my rationale) of them. Other than that, I've fixed it up. Thanks for the review.--Gen. Quon (Talk) 04:42, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
Ok. All of which you haven't addressed are fine. Again, good work! This will be a quick pass. TBrandley 04:48, 20 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]
