I'm a pretty big Star Trek fan if you didn't notice. Will have to pull all these old episodes out of Netflix and see them again. —Ed!(talk) 15:04, 14 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

  • "In this episode augments (genetically engineered humans) capture a Klingon vessel" -- the term augments was jargain in the episode. How about "In this episode, genetically engineered humans called "augments"..." -- also linking to an article on generic engineering might be good.
  • I don't understand this sentence: "They retriever the augment's creator and head in pursuit."
  • You should more directly note Bret Spiner's character and his relation both to the Wrath of Kahn antagonists and to his character in TNG.
  • "It was the appearance in the Star Trek franchise by J.G. Hertzler," -- do you mean the last appearance?
  • It would also help to note the origin of the story being that ENT was dealing with low ratings and was trying to incorporate storylines from the other series in order to boost its standings. In particular, this would explain the IGN quote in the "Reception" section.
  • Both production staff and guest cast members in the infobox will need a cite.
  • Dup links tool returns two results: Orion and Bret Spiner.
  • Dab links return no problems. Links check out on External links tool. Article is illustrated by several images with appropriate licenses.
Placing the article on hold pending these improvements. —Ed!(talk) 15:27, 14 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Another great work. Passing the article. —Ed!(talk) 00:34, 15 January 2013 (UTC)Reply

Premise in lead section

edit

The second paragraph of the lead section does more than briefly summarize the premise, it includes four sentences of plot summary including the ending. As this has been evaluated as a "Good Article" I decided it best to discuss rather than boldly change it. One or two sentences should be more than enough to briefly summarize the premise. I would suggest that the first sentence generically explaining about the show be trimmed, and the last section explaining the conclusion of the episode also be trimmed. Something like:

The crew of the starship Enterprise, must track down a dangerous group of genetically engineered humans called "Augments", reluctantly assisted by their creator, Doctor Arik Soong (Brent Spiner). 

Any comments or suggestions? No rush, I'll come back around to this eventually, probably. -- 109.79.163.196 (talk) 14:50, 18 August 2024 (UTC)Reply
