replies: text: Why is TrekToday listed in Google news searches if its not a good source?  Does listing in Google news mean anything, as it certainly excludes blogs and most everything else.  We must have a discussion about this somewhere.--Milowent • talkblp-r 22:13, 14 October 2010 (UTC)

text: Trektoday is just fine, despite some less than civil comment above (no, the "tags" don't really matter). That particular article though simply reiterates the plot, which, as ever, is already cited by watching the episode. WikiuserNI (talk) 15:58, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

replies: text: Repeatedly saying something in many sources doesn't make it notable. WikiuserNI (talk) 16:10, 15 October 2010 (UTC)
replies: text: I don't agree with that premise.  If a local news story is reported only in the, say, the Northeast Mississippi Daily Journal, its not notable.  But if that same story is covered by every major news outlet in the world, the case for notability goes much higher.  We are talking a much more minor scale with TrekToday, but the fact that it posted an article about an individual episode seems worthwhile to note.--Milowent • talkblp-r 16:15, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

message: This episode is listed in the introduction as Episode 2. However, technically, it is Episode 3. A few of the other episodes in the season make this same error, so I'm going to change them to match the rest of the articles that follow the sequence on the 1 episode page. — ★Parsa ☞ talk 02:52, 10 September 2018 (UTC)
thread_title:  Episode sequence 

message: The Reception section included a strange attempt to contrast two reviews from two entirely different authors both of which were printed at TrekWeb, which I have made a small attempted to clean up. 
It especially strange that someone felt the need to quote a review of an entirely different episode to say something nice about this one. The review for the episode Detained, mentioned this episode in passing as one of several of the better episodes that happened to be space based episodes, and the reviewer thought managed to evoke a sense of wonder about exploration. The season 1 DVD retrospective review was not positive about this episode. TrekWeb did actually publish two reviews of this episode, and both of the contemporary reviews were fairly positive, so it is strange that those were not contrasted against the later review. It will probably still need further rephrasing and cleanup. 
As is this was only the second episode I'm still hoping I will be able to find reviews from from mainstream publications, rather than having more than one review from TrekWeb. -- 109.78.208.111 (talk) 01:44, 7 June 2021 (UTC)
thread_title:  Reception 

message: Star Trek magazine interviewed VFX supervisor Mitch Suskin https://archive.org/details/startrekmagazine03unse_9/page/42/mode/2up and this episode got a few mentions, for example the grappling hooks and torpedoes shown in this episode. Might be worth adding something to the production section. There is other information that might be useful to other season 1 episode articles. I might do it myself eventually but I was looking for other things when I found this, so for now I am simply making a note here and continuing to look for other sources. -- 109.76.195.193 (talk) 03:20, 1 July 2022 (UTC)
