Generally a pretty sound article with no issues. I've undertaken a couple of minor copyedits. I've tried to curb my natural Britishness on spelling, grammar and punctuation, but if I suggest you do something that is wrong or awkward in Americanese, please let me know: similarly, if my copy edits have

I was the one that wrote the citation for the DVD notes, so I'll chime in here. There are seven directors (that I counted) in the season - would it be better to list them all, then? I can add them all in for the uses of that citation in this and other articles if it would be preferable. And the long

With reference to the DVD citation, I suggest we follow the 'normal' academic route (or one of them, at least): in the references you list full details of the work - including all authors. In the footnotes the first author plus et al "Carter, et al (1995-1996)" which will point people to the full

I didn't realise Hammond / Oswald / Liquori were adolescents until later in the article (and it's supposed to be one of the more important aspects of the episode. Perhaps re-work the first line to that effect along the lines of "In a Connerville, Oklahoma video arcade, three

vs short citation thing - the short citations are used for page references for books, long form are for websites or other media. It's a mix that's been used and accepted before, especially as short-style linking to websites is a bit awkward and redundant.

All the points above were addressed: thanks for that. Unfortunately a few subsequent edits have caused a few other wrinkles in the process. I've sorted one or two of them myself, but if you could sort out two of them I'd be

Why "Plot Summary", instead of "Plot"? No problems either way, but the other X-Files articles seem to just have "Plot". Your call either way – and it's not going to stop a GA.

When was the episode first released (at least US market if not one other main one)? If the info isn't to hand for other markets, then just the US date and the channel too.
544:"Nielsen rating of 10.9, with a 20 share" I have no idea what this means! At least link Nielsen and give some frame of reference for 10.9 and 20 (percentages? millions?) 163: 87: 77: 59: 600:
There are now two different formats of date format in the footnotes: long and short. I don't mind which you choose, but pick one and stick to it

Only a few point to pick up on overall: nice work and if you can sort the above out in a week then it's a GA for you. Cheers -

It's a really minor and nit-picking point, but after you need a space between pp. (or p.) and the page number.

I'll make a start on this in a day or so. Should be fun to review some of your stuff! -

We're very close on the GA front, but please sort these out and we'll be good to go. -
